If this is true how does it effect the cover gameplay?

Damage reduced from 200 to 80.
Flinch radius reduced from 8 to 4.
This only impacts buildings I guess. 80 damage is still enough to kill 40 hp soldiers. But AOE reduce is bad.
Thanks for this hidden changes.

its worth noting the flinch radius is NOT the same thing as the AOE. the 120mm precision AOE has not changed
also, build time is linked to unit cost, so reducing the CE cost by 30 mp also reduced its build time by 3 seconds.

Team balance, decided to withdraw these maps outside automatch. So this is not a bug, but is a feature:
Don river
Pripyat
Pripyat Winter
Rzhev
City 17 Winter

Why are there ninja changes in the first place? Sigh. And how does one notice them?It's most likely things they forgot about or didn't think were all that significant. It's not like they have some sinister plan to sneak in stronger fences while we aren't looking.

The 120mm mortar still has a more powerful grenade, more range and the ability to deliver a precision strike. I´m almost certain it will still outclass German mortars.
And cost 2x more. Now is no reason build 120mm. Two normal 81mm are better deal.

And it only took 6+ months and probably a million vetos to come to this conclusion...
Better late than never I guess...

I didn't know about that mortar nerf.
Don't you know about PTRD buff? 15 seconds, 4 rifles, Pz4 dead.

On rear armor with mark target maybe.
And its PTRS.
PTRD was a different one.

...and 120mm mortar was never seen again...
Amen.
It's range should return to pre-nerf values after all the changes.
