Now thinking about it, I think its the number of models instead ill check.


I think that the 6 PTRS rifles will get priotized in an M5 since it has 5 or 6 models shooting out of it.

I am not sure what you mean. The average user is simply not aware of game mechanics only of the result.


my point was, how often is this actually a problem aside from the M3-flamer which doesn't see any action past the 10min marker (probs earlier).

It caps at 4 modals, so you achieve the same in live and yes they do prioritize vehicles (you can have a double flamer :)).

One has to keep in mind that PTRS has longer range than other weapons so it will probably be the weapon to fire at longer ranges

A) Things are better to dealt with before the become a problem.
(For instance I pointed WC21 being op even at preview. Unfortunately it had to cause problems before it was fixed)

B) AT HT are good especially vs certain vehicles like the luch that is actually rather bad vs vehicles.

C) There are problem a already with certain HT being to good at wipes on retreats and the patch creates the condition for more issue with faster M5 and with 3 PTRS or penal. So regardless if it an issue in live it has potential to be an issue in preview and might need extensive testing.

I have tried double flamer and they would not fire. (was in game and have not done extensive testing)

Agreed, only this option is not available due to the low resources that relic provide for balance patches. Also the size of the problem is not as big as other issues have been (take the pack howi for instance).

Sorry, can't have allies using clown cars effectively. Have a good day.

(And don't say anything about 250, this crap gets built once in a blue moon)

Nonsense.

I see 250s regularly and they are effective - especially when it can be dug in as well for the suppression.

Vipper's hard on for anything the allies have which is vaguely effective makes it impossible to take his suggestions seriously.

Next.

How often do you think it's used in 1v1 in top 200 games. Or even team games. In low ranks I can win with all CE builds or Sturm kubel builds:D So soviet clown cars are used ten times more often in any team modes and levels than 250.

My point is that clown cars are mostly used by allies. And with the patch it will be even more so since 5men grens will be nerfed. It doesn't take a genius to figure out who this change will affect the most and at whom it is aimed at.

Not to mention not a single decent top player said that clown car is a problem.

Actually, all relevant allied clown cars got heavy nerfs either in former or in this patch.



Then why exactly do we have this topic?:loco:

Ah - well, forget it then. We should balance for 400 people and scrubs like me can go get lost. Got it. :)

Some things don't change.

Sorry didn't mean to sound elitist or gatekeeping. It's just that in lower ranked games everything goes and is "viable" but if you don't see the same stuff in higher ranked games, then there isn't anything to discuss balance-wise, since it's just a matter of skill.

Can you give examples of clown cars overperforming in high level games and some high level people saying that clown cars should be changed? Are there any tournament games or high level games that justify this thread?

Adding to the request, remember to NOT use examples of M3 or Dodge from the past, because these are already nerfed or being nerfed right now.

Use preview replays, which show the problem despite the nerfs.

I love the m5, pop 2 squads in it and drive it into the enemy camp and drop out and unleash hell
