Devs, thank you!

Terminator: Dark Fate – Defiance is a real-time strategy game that follows the war between humanity and Legion's synthetic intelligent machine network. In the single-player campaign, you take the role of a commander in the Founders faction and guide your army in an attempt to foil Legion's plan to exterminate the last remnants of humanity. In skirmish and multiplayer modes, play as three very diverse factions: Founders, Legion and Resistance.

Agreed, the customization options is utterly insane to go with the strategic map. Great work to both CatsWhoPlay and the current devs. A movie tie in game that is incredibly good is something rarer than diamonds.

Game is bad and gets bad scores. Nothing wonderful about this unless if you are a Dark Souls fanboy and you love save scumming. You belong to the minority if you believe that this game is "wonderful".

Hey, I wanted to drop in and say big thanks for this game, I'm enjoying it a lot :D. The game reminds me a bit of the Original War (without the base-building aspect though) which is one of my classic game favorites. I'm looking forward to any new content for this game.

I do want to report some minor issues with the game which I noticed. All of them are just small quality-of-life improvements though.

Lack of encyclopedia information about armor types

Would be keen on having more information about the armor types of each unit and the actual armor values so I can easily compare the two units when it comes to durability. Currently, I need to do field testing in combat to fully understand what a unit can and can't do (maybe intentional?)

Pausing the use of a specific weapon also pauses its reloading time

We are expected to micro-manage units to a level when the use of certain ammunition/weapon types is not allowed. For example, I always have my TOW missiles off for the majority of units to avoid overkill in choke areas. Pausing the use of a specific weapon will also pause the reload timer which is odd. Ideally, when a weapon type is allowed again it's already fully reloaded (ready to fire).

Swapping weapons

Changing weapons which are allocated to a unit results in losing the leftover ammunition for that weapon type. This often causes the loss of precious resources and it looks like not intended behavior.

My expectation here is that the remaining ammunition on the weapon that got detached rom the unit should either keep that leftover ammunition on that weapon so if it's assigned to another unit, the weapon isn't empty (this can be tickly though as different units have different ammo capacity for the same weapon). Alternatively, the remaining ammo should be converted back to resources as per ammo to supply calculation so player can have more control of where the supply is used.


Iroquois helicopter

I am having trouble using the Iroquois helicopter in a combat role. Was trying two things:

* hover in a single spot and face a specific direction to provide suppressing fire against enemy infantry
* hit & run fire unguided rockets at light vehicles

Neither of these seems to work for me as it results in the helicopter flying straight into the enemy lines and getting shot down. I switched this unit to a scouting role only which works fine and maybe that's the intended role.
