You must now use cover and smart move. All infantry must.
I want to have the same chance, to win for each side.

Like every other infantry unit in the game other than shocks. PGs still use the best infantry weapon in the game and only lost a tiny amount of short range accuracy. They will still be great for flanking and clearing out support weapons and regular Soviet infantry, to say nothing of using the best infantry-based AT weapon in the game as well.

erm...yes yes..whatever you say, human, whatever..
Ontopic: PaK43 fourth man is also great news, even if it is +1 man more to the crew, it adds a lot of survivability...hopefully it wont get wiped as easy as it was before the patch.
Also, why the nerf to the howitzers? OMG
As is stated before: Howitzers got their shots reduced to compensate changes in reload and aoe profiles. theyd be to strong firing their old number of shells per barrage

Perhaps in the beta, after the changes to grens and scout cars, Pgrens came more prominent and warranted a wee nerf. Not in the beta myself, but otherwise, I don't think many were complaining about them.
To be fair, if they were in medium to close range they were a pretty efficient unit for cost I believe, as the original cost they had accounted for the fact that SMG troops get roughed up closing the distance. Would have preferred a cost increase myself rather then stats change.
Also, i'd love to see the option of a single shrek upgrade in the future for Pgrens, perhaps an option of a 120 muni cost for 2 shreks, or a 70 muni cost for a single one (means more bang for buck if you get the two shreks, but you are paying the opportunity cost.)
Aside from PGrens, I feel soviets should be even better on the urban maps now, which I hope is closely monitored by the balance team, as my initial gut feeling is, maps like Semosiy with plentiful shot blockers, cover and buildings will be tipped in soviet favor. Not sure how you address that though.

This patch is really lame. How many huge swings are we going to get in balancing?
We just hit the reset button every patch and we shouldn't be surprised when this leads to imba.
PGs are already a huge MP drain to reinforce b/c they are killed so easily. Now their armor is reduced even more?
Arty reload times are increased for whatever reason.
And generally I see German nerfs and Soviet buffs. When you buff one side and nerf the other, what do you think the end result will be? Just think last patch.

I wish. This is a mockup I made during beta (alpha?). This explains the "old" values. Would like to see this instead of the big grey, empty box.

Its you.
Combat engie spam is not a valid strat.
Cons do fine job now.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

gj, and it would be awesome if it's implemented in game, but something tells me they will find a negative excuse like "confusing to average players".

But it is already an option (is it?). To enable the flavor text in the box or not. This turns the box from a fun facts box to an empy space at the moment. Could be a simple and advanced option. With easy/casual text (This is a heavy tank) or the exact number for advanced players or reference in replays and vods/shoutcasts.
