The authors of the Russian tactics game Red Recon 1944 continue to talk about the work processes and mechanics of the game. Recently, they decided to talk about German patrols.
Now the creators of the game continue to develop and improve the mechanics of patrols - the enemies become more dangerous and smarter:
«...the routes become more complex, the composition - more diverse. Now some groups are headed by officers. Their presence makes the soldiers more collected and disciplined: they ignore the usual tricks, are not distracted by extraneous noise and no longer go into a dark alley one by one».
The developers shared a strategy for dealing with patrols:
«You can effectively deal with such a squad only with the help of a well-planned ambush. Study the route, choose a point away from other enemies (or clear it by eliminating sentries and witnesses), and then quickly destroy the patrol, using combat abilities, explosives or firearms».
You can also simply bypass the patrol, using stealth, but in case of an alarm, you will have to fight off a larger number of enemies.
