During gameplay, campaign, the units sometimes aren’t responsive to commands and in some cases don’t defend themselves. Sometimes when trying to use their special, they just sit there. I have to be constantly telling them what to do and spamming buttons,
I haven’t even gotten to multiplayer yet.

I completely agree. Often times it takes more than one button push to get things done, especially infantry units. Most the time it takes several X button pushes before my marines finally do what I am telling them to do. They seem to get easily distracted, and sometimes to the point where they kill themselves because of it.
The Y ability is super unresponsive also. Iv’e learned that one Y click doesn’t do the job it used to do back in the first Halo Wars. For example, if you want your vultures to all use their abilty at once, you have to select your group of vultures from the rest of your army and click Y thr same number of times as to the number of vultures you have, other wise they won’t all do it.
Also, there is some problem in strongholds where randomly your units get taken somewhere just outside the map to where you can’t use them any more, but still count as units that you have.
This is especially apparent with Jet Pack Brutes. This needs to be fixed fast, because controlling infantry units in this game is very hard to do when they do not respond on the first click. As I said above this is horrendous with Jet Pack Brutes. Try this for yourself: build a couple brutes (8 - 10) and send them to go attack the main frame of a base. Have an enemy attack your brutes while you’re attacking the enemy base, and watch your brutes freeze up and scatter on top of not responding to your command to attack the main frame of a base.
