Seriously, half of my opponents are just 2 Harvester/Jackson/Disruptor. It’s really becoming ridiculous. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. But it’s damn near the same match all day long. I’m getting sick of it. And kinda on the verge of retiring. The game has become mundane. Even before the Disruptor abuse, the lack of new game modes and such... it’s literally just the same old same ol all day every day. Devs, if y’all don’t do something resfreshing soon... I’m thinking people are going to start walking away. P.S. some emojis and some skins that y’all are SELLING isn’t something refreshing. Even if it was free it wouldn’t be enough to keep us refreshed and feeling like this game has replayability. (Yes, that’s a word lmao)

Seriously... this is beyond an issue. And I’m done. I’ll check in from time to time here to see how the game is progressing... and that’s IF the game is progressing. But I’m done. This game has gotten old.

Totally agree, ran into this 3 times today and the dumbest thing about them, is you can totally be winning the pads, and have a huge army... But if you can't stop 2 Disruptors from reaching your base, then you're gonna lose. I JUST lost a game this way, even after killing his harvester, launching a missile. So dumb.

I'm OK with every other strategy that has caused me to lose, but when a Disruptor comes out of nowhere and 2-hits my base causing me to insta lose; well that's one of this game's biggest "fun buzzkills." ...They are also the only time that I have just stopped playing for the day, because I was so dumbfounded.

Also if you're really encountering it so often isn't the burden on you now to have learned to counter it? I've only lost to the disruptor maybe one time in the last few weeks since I have orcas and stealth tanks in my deck. It does need a nerf but it's not that difficult to deal with in the meantime since there's no surprise factor. 1. Because I have focused on leveling up the units I have and don’t have it high up. Also, it’s cheap as f*ck. Like I wouldn’t even want to focus on that style of play. It’s pretty wack if you ask me. 2. I have learned to counter it. Stop it from getting out. The only counter I can come up with is to not let it reach the battlefield. Because once an opponent gets to it, my Mohawks/Banshees can’t take it down before it can scurry up and get some shots off. And that’s IF my Mohawks/Banshees live past the Zones/Sandstorms protecting it. I disagree Ree that it’s not hard to deal with. Because it is. And if I switch up my deck to focus on this, it leaves me vulnerable to the other things I have to account for. With only 6 units to pick from, it’s really really tough to account for every single setup. And I have a pretty balanced lineup and I don’t want to switch it to over account for one problem. It doesn’t beat me every time. But it does get me more than any other setup.

I had to use Disruptors yesterday to get my challenges done, and LOL it's so dumb, the two times I pulled it out I was able to get them to my opponents base and basically 2 hit it to victory. I don't even know what to say, but it felt like passing a knife through butter - regardless I felt little joy in it knowing how stupid it is.

This game has become “Race to the Disruptor”

Honestly I almost never see a disruptor destroying my base or even going for it.
But what I DO see quite often is the disruptor and zonetrooper combo. If you do not have the correct counter for this, you just straight up loose lol.

Yeah, it happens a lot.
The tilt factor is so real.
The Disruptor + Zone Trooper Combo is strong.
However, Most players only use it as a distraction.
The Disruptor is slow.
Players use the Zone Trooper as a blocker to get the Disruptor close enough to a base.
The Disruptor will 4 shot most bases
or
The Disruptor will 2 shot a base if 1 Missile has gone off.
Some players don’t even run Zone Troopers.
They just use 1 tech lab unit (Disruptor) with other units.

@XPlayerJ I agree it is slow... but when it’s Jackson’d it gets across the map in no time!

That’s wild. I know it’s not just happening to me. I’ve seen at least 4 posts about this. I’m just adding my fuel to the flame hoping it will finally catch on of these EA devs eyes and take notice.

Happens whenever I am wooping *. They send out a disrupter to kill my base. Take no time at all. Definitely needs a Nerf towards bases. I occasionally play with the disrupter but personally feel like it's too easy to kill the base so I don't. I'm not in to cheap shots.

If I could figure out how to show a replay on here I would you show how quickly I lost after owning the opponent but lost to. Jackson. disrupter quicker than *.

1.) Install BlueStacks.
2.) Install C&C Rivals within BlueStacks and link to your existing account.
3.) Install ShareX.
4.) Replay the battle in the emulator and record it with ShareX while it's playing.
5.) Upload the recorded video on Youtube.
6.) Post the link to the Youtube video here .
Easy! 😉
