How many times does the 8 (FlameTank, APC, StealthTank, Buggy) rush need to fail on C&C_Islands when GDI only has a barracks for people to realize that infantry kick a lot of ass?!

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

There's only 7 vehicles as one = harvester.
7 APC's with a nuker have always owned any infantry on a 14 - 26 players server.

7 APCs > that
Snipers + SBH/APC nuke > that
7 teched arties from long range > that
yes, that > an unco-ordinated stank rush, and yes that > buggies...

Okay, picture this. It's the last 5 minutes of C&C_Islands. GDI has nothing but their barracks left, but since it's islands they have a large amount of cash accumulated. Nod has nothing but the airstrip left, and also has a large amount of cash left. The teams are 20v20 of average skill and no complete n00bs with equally good teamwork on both sides. The score is roughly tied. Who wins?
GDI, because Infantry > Tanks. No matter how coordinated the APC rush is, if the infantry aren't complete n00bs and someone sees them early and calls what they're doing, they're fucked.
Artys would just be ramjet-fodder without techs behind them.
In any case, no nuke could even hit the bar at this point.

Thaty's just because the vehicle limit of 7 isn't appropriate for a 20v20 game.
14 apc's with a nuke would still own them.

it's possible that there will be techs. but if you take out the techs, then the arties are fodder to sniper fire
(and possibly and engis repairing it)
the inf would generally win, as they are harder to hit, and you get less points for killing one.
This is a signature. Reading this is wasting your time.

Even if what Dover says would be true, it is stupid to proove a point through such a specific situation. I could also say: infantry owns everything because when only the pp is alive on a map, then our snipers make a lot of kills and can cover a nuke!

So basically everyone is only saying that vechs are good when they have techs (An infantry) behind them?
Of course teched artys or teched mammys or teched anything owns. That's combining infantry AND vehicles.
Take an even number of 1000 infantry and put them against any vehicle of your choice, no techs. Infantry win.

It's about skill where the arty is concerned. It takes no skill whatsoever to hit an arty with a sydney, but a skilled player can consistently bodyshot infantry with an arty.
