I don't want that halo wars 2 becomes Halo Wars 1, but you need to grab some things from the first one for many reasons, this includes the perfect balance in matchmaking that halo wars 1 had.
I'm a general with almost 8 million points in Halo Wars 1 Multiplayer. I've been playing the game since launch.
I have some recommendations.
1.- Nerf Centinel damage against structures or increase the population cost or increase the resources cost. This unit can destroy a base in seconds, it's kinda ridiculous, it flies to fast fix it
2.- Increase the damage for Wolverines, it feels like a weak unit against Air Units.
3.- For the love of God, increase the build time or the cost for Jack Rabbits by 50%, this is the unit that a lot of people use for Rush.
4.-Elite Rangers are to weak against Infantry, increase the damage againts infrantry units
5.- Increase build time for MotoBrutes, a lot of peopole use this unit for Rush.
6.- The time to re-use the healing power is very high, please reduce it
I will copy suggestions with which I agree
Turrets: Decrease spawn time to 30 seconds, this will help against rush
Buff Scorpions a little
The Wraith need a big buff because it`s one of the most useless units in the game
Ander`s Sentinel must cost more Energy and must be nerfed
Activate friendly fire
You ave to think now when you use your power when your units or the units of your team are in the near
Sorry my english its not good... I'm learning how to speak it.
