the achievements are all screwed up the new DLC for example has kill 200 enemy units that should have been in the game originally and the DLC should of had kill 500 instead. they are just out of order some of the achievements.

Galdius, what is the saying?
Caveat emptor.
Dude, you got exactly what they said you were getting nothing less and nothing more. IMHO it is not worth the money. So, I didn't buy it. I agree with you that it is very little for the money, but you had to have known that if you read what was in it before you bought it.

Next to horse armor, this may have been the single worst deal in DLC history.
I avoided it like a 3 card Monty dealer.
Anyone have some other nominations?

Once again, did you read the description?
I think you'll find they told you the exact amount of nothing that comes with the pack.

LOL. Exactly. I think this is the same marketing guy that invented the pet rock in the 80's. How to sell nothing and get people to buy it.

they just need to make a DLC you have to buy that gives your engineers some kind of anti-riflmen upgrade and id be happy.

$10 for content maybe worth 2 bucks at the most but is more in line with the free content other companies have been putting out. This probably is the worst deal in dlc history.
Honestly if I were Ubisoft I would be embarrassed to put this out for 10 bucks.

If only the the upgrade for European transports hadn't been a complete joke then maybe I would pick up the DLC. To my knowledge the transports don't really have any accuracy problems.
I'd hate to have to switch faction just to justify the purchase.

Hell no they don't. After the platform stabilizer upgrade they hit almost every shot. An upgrade to increase damage against tanks would have made more sense. Why not, they gave SGB tanks anti-aircraft guns.

Not only do SGB tanks have anti-aircraft guns, the flamethrowers that Bears get are REALLLLY powerful! Yesterday, I encountered a unit of Bears who were NOT in cover (they had full health). It was just my unit of level 3 Kommandos (who had 75% health) and these Engineers who were NOT in cover. They whipped out those damn flame throwers and killed my Riflemen immediately.
The ENGINEERS....killed my almost-max-health RIFLEMEN.
Wow.
Now, I'm not complaining that there are some high-level abilities that buck the combat chain, in FACT, I think it might really shake things up a bit (and DIVERSIFY THE THREE FACTIONS, WHICH WE NEED MORE OF!). However, that little combat-exchange showed me that MAYBE...juuuust maybe, the SGB's "Strength" is much higher than any EFEC "Speed" could balance out.
If the Wolves and Bears are going to be that strong (which is GREAT!) give our Kommandos two more Mobility Upgrades! Something interesting! Increase their running speed! Maybe give them the ability to Garrison in and out of buildings like 3x faster than other infantry. THAT WOULD HELP DIVERSIFY THE FACTIONS!!!

Our strength isn't heavy hitting butch infantry units like the SGBs jolly green Wolves and Bears. But, the only time I've lost a high health Kommando unit to engineers is when they attempted to storm a building and ran through a mine field.
For the most part i like EFEC units how they are. The only changes i would make are for our Marksman (more like underdog) artillery.

Pseh, just give laser rifles to European rifelmen.
Pew pew! http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
But honestly, anything other than a lousy accuracy upgrade. Europe is supposed to be fast and decisive, some of our units could probably stand to get a high level damage upgrade/weapon change without turning us into a super fast Spetznas.
