This game fucking sucks.
>awful accuracy on everything
>game is all about dealing with low supply and ammo but your units have zero discipline and will deplete their AT into enemy infantry or fire 5.56 at tanks
>accuracy is awful on everything, 've seen trained soldiers miss 3-4 SMAW rounds in a row at barely 50m distance against a vehicle or a humvee's .50 miss 80% of its rounds against a target a few meters away
>game has permadeath for units/persistent campaign army but due to the heavy RNG nature of the game almost all your losses are due to the RNG being against you
>the campaign loves to surprise you by giving you random units on the other side of the map which you cannot possibly save
>or by changing the objective so you carefully laid plans are now all fucked up
>it also likes to infinitely spawn enemy units from random map edges for no reason
>enemy AI is completely unpredictable and not in a good way, it might sit in an open field and do nothing for 10 minutes before suddenly suicide rushing towards a position with no care for its own safety and snipe your unprotected crew that it had no way of knowing was there
>it seems the devs realize this as the normal difficulty has your units take retarded amounts of punishment (e.g. a humvee taking direct tank shots or infantry shrugging off giant plasma balls)
>units will randomly just ignore or not execute orders
It tires to do something halfway between normal RTS and Men of War but it doesn't work, in Men of War units are actually effective and you can plan things out within reason and the RNG is a factor but not a huge one. In Defiance it's 50% your strategy, 50% RNG.

Maybe you just suck at the game?

Having to throw smokes to get your trained infantry within 20m of a stationary tank for them to reliably hit with an SMAW is just shit gameplay.

The game occupies a very awkward spot between CoH and MoW/GoH. The problem is that doesn't work.

Throwing smoke, shots are more accurate upclose are pretty common things

You're ngmi if you don't want to play strategy vidya on the level of realism the game expects you to play on. Just play Command and Conquer if you don't want to use mechanics like smoke, but do not expect me to respect you. I understood smoke fire and maneuver tactics when I was six or seven years old.
