Supermeep:

Aloysius:We're seeing a huge increase in Warthog related posts. I'm going to be combining threads in to this one, so please post in here instead of starting up a new thread on warthogs.

Here's the official line on Warthogs:

Dave Pottinger, Halo Wars Lead Designer:
"We're looking at how to fix the Warthogs. They are too good; we get that. Trying to figure out the right fix:)"

 

 

Glad to see that this has been acknowledged... kind of hard to find out when there are 20 threads on the subject. Thanks, aloysius.

 

 

As for a suggestion... maybe gauss should be t4, or maybe just an overall stat tweak, like less attack power vs. armor and air. IMO a combination of both would be best, but I'm not a game designer. 

I wish I was a game designer does that count? lol

make hogs have less accuracy, gauss and even gunner are too easy to micro because they are 100% accurate. They do very well massed and are too spammable. maybe 2 pop for each hog is good and make it take 20 sec to make hogs after researves. Have tanks do a bit better against them and maybe make the gauss gun less powerful on infantry and vehicles.

uhh.......gunner hogs are still too good. They make all regular infantry useless.

 

Gauss nerf is the biggest issue right now but the game would be a lot better if they nerfed gauss AND made infantry stronger. Either that, or make gunner hogs more difficult to get.

 

It would be nice to build marines for once instead of opening every single game with 5 hogs or a tank build.

EDIT: I just didn't know if you were aware of that.

If and when gauss gets nerfed to t4 there's nothing but a bunch of pyromaniacs saving you from a semi-early/late leader attack with either wraiths, Locusts, hunters or jackals.

Im against these threads becuase i dont think you (robot) read them. Its just to silence the people.

But, dont nerf the hogs, just the guass cannon. The damage to heavy armor needs to be reduced so that counter units actually counter them.

Yes I agree just make the guass cannon do 5% less damege or something

5% isnt enough.

It should only be done to heavy armour and it should be liek 30%-40%

maybe true but I never use hogs or get killed buy tham so it dos not matter to me

Im 6 y ask

FJ is right, they just ignore you. They put this up, to stop you spamming the Forums. Do you honestly think they'll go through every post? They come in too fast, so they just say they will look at them, and the Sheep pour in, thinking that what they say is actually being taken into consideration.

SPQR! An ambitious historical project, coming soon. Check the Library for early version test writes. Recommended for anyone with a love of history.

I think that the warthogs health should be reduced and not it's attack. I think that plasma grenades/rocket propelled-grenades should do more damage to scout vehicles. I know this isn't halo 3 but in halo 3 a plasma would take out any warthog, ghost, and chopper. Also as a side note I think it would be nice to be able to assign your units to different groups to add more strategy to the game. That might reduce spamming.

Offensive Bias:FJ is right, they just ignore you. They put this up, to stop you spamming the Forums. Do you honestly think they'll go through every post? They come in too fast, so they just say they will look at them, and the Sheep pour in, thinking that what they say is actually being taken into consideration.

Of course they put this up to stop the spamming, I dont see why that's such a bad idea, and I bet they go through alot of them but there are jsut so many that have the same ideas they dont read them alot anymore.

Before we do anything with warthogs, would any of the people claiming they are OP please explain the stats of the players below. 

 

Their win percentages are just un real, and they don’t seem to be using hogs.   

 

Now if the are doing some kind of cheating please explain.  Because from a quick scan their worst player has a record of 108 wins 2 losses.

I do not know these guys, but they are playing 3v3 arranged teams and just walking through team after team.   They hold the top 7 spots in wins for June in 3v3 arranged teams, and before you say the month is young they have over 100+ games played.  Also if they are cheating I would like to know how.   The links above will get you into some of their records. 

 

Also this guy is 57 wins no losses in June in 2v2 arranged and he only seems to be using the brute.

Wait a second, you want to know how to cheat and win? That's not the right way to play.
