Research New Unit Upgrades

The Disable ability for GDI and the Stealth ability for Nod are now available to research.

Overview:
There are three different units for each faction which can be upgraded once to get a special ability.

GDI (Disable):
The upgradable GDI units are Riflemen, Pitbull and Orca.

Each of the three units can disable an enemy unit in combat temporarily for a short amount of time.

While a unit is disabled it cannot shoot.

After disabling a unit there is a cooldown. When the cooldown is over another unit in range can be disabled.

When a base with a much higher level than your own gets attacked, the duration of the disabling effect gets reduced.

Nod (Stealth):
The upgradable Nod units are Militants, Specter and Commando.

Each of the units enters combat in stealth mode.

The stealth mode is active until an enemy unit gets attacked.

Other:
Added additional information to the tooltip of all base buildings. Production buildings now show the production/h of each building. Non-production buildings show the most important information. (e.g. Barracks shows the Infantry Repair Time for the current level)

Added a button to disable the auto-scrolling in combat

Balancing changes:
Nod, Def Militant Rocket Soldier: reduced damage vs. vehicles analogical to Militant Rocket Soldier

Nod, Vertigo: slightly reduced ammo

Nod, Salamander:
*Stops only for structures
*Increased damage vs. structures
*Increased ammo in base-area
*Slightly reduced health

This Patch will be deployed on all CB-Servers + World 4+5

See you on the battlefield, Commanders

Greetings,

Damn, I just got the Vertigo and had 6 flawless victories since I got it, hope I can still 2 shot kill equal level bases. Also how evil would it be if the Vertigo was given stealth like in previous C&C games

[CruciasNZ]

The patch is being beta tested on the Closed Beta worlds, as well as World's 3+4. World 13 (us) will be a few days-weeks

[CruciasNZ]

Welcome back Draco

[Draco Ny'ade]

Thanks Cru

[CruciasNZ]

Just a note, this goes live on US Servers today. I should wake up in the morning (9pm now) and it should be there. Going to be interesting.

[JC 042]

Im gonna kill as much forgotten with my Vertigo's as possible before then .

[Brother Davious]

Looks like C&C is down soooooo, Updates it must be

[Brother Davious]

Ok they are now live. First unit gets unpgrade, costs $7m, 14m RS. Also Defence HQ has slightly less health. No other visual changes will keep looking though.

[Brother Davious]

Ruined vertigos..... so disappointed.

[Draco Ny'ade]

what happened?

[J0ker2610]

i cant see a difference dave i think theyre just as good as before

[JC 042]

They've destroyed them Joker

[CruciasNZ]

They gave them ammunition limits like the Firehawk. Originally the firehawk just blasted through everything like the Vertigo. Now you have to clear some room for them, just like hawks

[J0ker2610]

jc i cant see it lol

[Brother Davious]

Its only really apparent when attack big rows of buildings like player bases.

[JC 042]

They attack 2 structures instead of 3, with less damage.

[CruciasNZ]

They attack 2 structures instead of 3, with less damage.

Still just like the Hawk, quit yer complaining you OP bastards lol
