So blitz gets it's speed back, but not overdrive? How is that fair?

Overall i really like the changes made int his patch, however there are two thins a dont agree with.

The first being the scoutcar. It obviously needed a change, but i feel it will fall into irrelevancy after this patch, but only time will tell.

The other being the jagdtiger costing 40 more fuel.... i mean that unit is a monster theres no question but even with the mobility upgrade it is still among the slowest units in the game, maybe even the slowest. Perhaps it may have needed a change but 40 extra fuel is a bit much imo. Maybe a Slight MP reduction to compensate a litle?

Maybe Blitz should reduce armour or increase damage taken. I know it sounds silly but it would definitely stop the 'defensive blitz' problem, or at least make it much riskier.

I think better idea is to reduce LOS of tank when blitz in progress.

A shame they reduce the tactical possibilities it opens in 2v2.
They should rather have given 50% to teammate or so.

The Blitz change is a must for dealing with the immer annoying ISUs in the field.

It was nerfed in range to 70 as you remember.

These sound like good changes. Hell, I even like the Opel changes. If you want to share resources you can still get caches or have one player go Luftwaffe Supply and spam those sweet, sweet air-dropped resources.

One thing to note w/r/t blitz: in the bad old days of Wehrmacht turbo tanks they could Blitz even with a damaged engine, something that isn't possible any more. I guess we will see what happens, but, man, 50% extra speed is a lot!

Mmm... Propaganda Artillery price decrease. Terror Tactics prop war + KV-8 base rush troll strike got even better :)

Yes but it still does a shitload of dmg and wipes squads.

Played a 3v3 against this strategy yesterday - despite having a tiny corner of the map with fuel, they managed to OP up and truck up, meaning they were getting out king tigers.

You can't tell me that isn't broken in some capacity?

True, it makes little sense that the more you have players, the larger the advantage.

I advocate the following: full bonus in 1 v 1, half bonus for both in 2 v 2, a third for each in 3 v 3 and a quarter bonus in 4 v 4 for all. OKW could have a further -33% or whatever to their share.

It's not silly at all. In an MMO I used to play they had something called Microwarpdrives on the ships. When active the ship took more damage.


Thats because they added 500% speed increase, using afterburner that gave ~120% speed increase didnt increase the damage right ?

"SdkFz251 Flak Halftrack:
Rate of Fire reduced from 4 to 3"

What does this actually means? It shoots slower or faster? I guess slower...isn't it?

Which gun shoots faster? The one with 750 bullets per minute or the with 600 bullets per minute?
The gun with a firerate of 4 or the gun with a firerate of 3?

Too bad Germans in 3vs3 4vs4 can't spam the shit out of Pz4 and Tiger anymore. That's so sad, I almost cried!!!! :D :D :D

Maybe, but in my last 200 3vs3 or 4vs4 matches I made a difference experience.
