rescue bots?

Let's do some math:

Rescue bots => Energy

1 rescue bot + Energy = Saved unit

More energy = More saved units

Therefore -> Easy energy = Easily saved units

Kablam, first point countered.

not really those were T2 at least and i said 4 experimentals vs 60 units so COUNTERED AGAIN

and T2 take like 30 seconds to 45

Doesn't matter, there won't be Unit of the same type as SupCom's Experimentals, it's listed in the Confirmed Features Sticky.

http://supcom.wikia.com/wiki/UEF_T3_Heavy_Assault_Bot You didn't have a point to start with. As you can clearly see, maybe 14 T3 > 1 Monkeylord.

yes but T3 in supcom take forever. ok back to topic, the rescue bot could be set not to rescue certain units. and don't you hate it when you lose like a gigantic army to some defense then why would you not like it

Learn to scout areas before you attack and get better at judging the outcome before hand.

This isn't a real solution, this is just a stop-gap that does nothing to fix the actual issue, which is playing poorly.

+1.

well this is supposed to be a idea that equals the other team not reclaiming the metal you need. cause rescue bots could be part of like some drones will escort the rescuer's and can fire at nearby enemies (maybe)

and what about if your wrong about the outcome, or they have a trick

No, if you don't want to give the enemy more mass, don't throw your units into battles where they're sure to fail, use long ranged units so you have a better chance to retreat, there are a plenthora of options to not end up in the situation you're trying to fix.

To solve a problem, the first step is to find the root cause of the problem, not repair the effects of the problem.

Mike

ok those are valid points but lets say you charge my base and you think you will win what happens when it turns out i have tons of hidden units and destroy you? then you just lost a lot

And it's my fault for not scouting better, next time I need to be more careful. In your example, you're a better player because you used mis-information to hide units and leadme to wrongly believe I could win a battle.

There is no problem there.

Mike

Not to mention, there are units that can just repair on the battlefield, no need to retreat so far.

but are all your units any faster than theirs? engineers usually take a while to repair a unit. maybe they wont even have mobile repairing units. you are basing your whole thing off of the assumption that it will be so close to SupCom that you can use tactics from it

I would so totally want a gigantic tractor beam that yanked my units out of trouble and into the open arms of its repair droids.

I'll call it the smother. Because mooooooooom.... :?

lol. a tractor beam would pull in the enemies units though unless you targeted one unit at a time and it would require lots of power. a rescue drone would be a fast reliable way to get them home

What tactics? I'm just saying that making rescue bots isn't necessary when you already have tanks that can repair each other. There is a reason why engineers take a while to repair a unit. You should be building more of that unit as opposed to repairing it.

Just a head's up, bobucle's post was so loaded with sarcasm you could bottle it and sell it...

either way you're going to lose units but you lose less with a rescue bot

You have go to be joking. This is so hypocritical.

how?
