for everyone complaining about the nerfs to tanks and not bikes, please remember pred tanks were never kings of anti-bike. That belongs to pitbulls and rockets/lasers. Also don't finish off bike squads if they are rushing you. Kill 2/3 then move on to the next. They can't rebuild the squad if it is still alive, yet you are killing off the same DPS. So weaken them all, then kill them all and you have won the game. Countering rushes has and still is this easy. But if you go harv first, you are going to have a bad time, as was, and still is.

Haha if you don't go harv first you will find there is a squad of wardogs/cyberwheels blocking your tiberium field.

I am no discussing how to play against war dogs or wheels, I am pointing at how imba it is for wheels over dogs, and there is no good counter for Gdi. Pitbull is not as effective as bikes against wheels.

I have seen you invested quite a few on your lv 11 wheels, good at using them to weaken rocket/laser so there could be no match to your lv 13 tank.

I can understand why EA is not handling this in recent updates as the wheels are still on sale. I am not against P2W, but if it is not making better unit balance while invent new imba units, it will end up losing the no/small paying players.

Hmmm, I understand your points. I still think pitbull is better vs wheels that aren't in position, as the pitbull can fire on the move and while blocking, so it can wipe a wheel squad before it does anyhting useful, but on the other hand, bikes does a better job taking out wheels that are attacking something important like an mg squad. So there is a give and take to that. 

but wardogs and wheels are 2 different units. They just kinda look the same. Wheels are 1 shots to everything anti-vehicle, where as wardogs are resistant to rockets/bikes/pits. So wardogs are better pad holders and can stall out decently against soft counters where wheels just get wrecked in half the time. 

But the devs have acknowledged the complaints are and looking into wheels. Not sure how they will handle the nerf as it wouldn't be too hard to over do it and they will end up like drone swarms. Time will tell.

True, there is a little mini-game there. If you scout and they scout, you can either block their harv as theirs blocks yours, or you can block with yours while your harv gets into position. Can be frustrating when you lose the mini-game though. Personally wheels/wardogs blocking harvs is silly to me. But I'll be honest, I've no good ideas to prevent it. 

Laser drone venom combo is pretty effective counter to wheels but then again if you are running two harvs in masters you are probably going to lose 

Ok nod confessors and gdi sandstorm are still super tanky it takes at minimum three buggy’s or chem. Buggy or rhinos to take them down unfortunately with this last update you pushed cheap tech to reflect this tech influenced approach it’s literally either destroy their harvs or they just tech flood I’m not sure why you guys changed it like that but it’s not at all improving game play experience...

Uber units ? Well tbh they are trash two mgs take out confessors pretty easy and three laser squads or missle squads take out sandstorms pretty efficiently it’s a 60 tib swap basically and 50 for confessor mg swap...point is that tech is useless if you kill harvs they never see play...but I’m sure you are a tech player no skill and credit card debt (p2w) guy soo it’s whatever

You know what, I think I'd side with him for once in saying that the game is trash. No, really; once you get a disconnect, you are pretty much screwed. Like a rabbit inside the mouth of a tiger. I'm here to complain about disconnections. I was playing on an emulator when for all of a sudden my router decided to turn itself on and off. What garbage for doing something like that! The reason why I decided to switch to emulators is to avoid said stupid lag, I can't win when one is laggy.

If that was a virus, however, I would be really annoyed. I sure would like to hear the news about a virus that targets the guests of C&C rivals and cause the game to fluctuate in internet connection again and again. This would be catastrophic for any player that succumbs to this virus. I only saying this out of sheer annoyance for avoiding disconnections only for one to liver-punch me in the face. My ego is ruined cause of that glitch.
