new patch impression

The "reward" for flanking an HMG is that you render it useless (it will have to re-position) giving you time to push.

Even if you don't manage to wipe it, flanking an HMG is better than getting suppressed and having to retreat

If it works as it did in alpha(which is safe assumption) then all I have to say is that oshterlitz just whines as usual without any base.

Base?Please enlighten me what to use against a defended katyusha.

Your own artillery is so shit its like a spark fighting a flame.

You are trash talking as usual without playing the game.

I have often used mechanized doctrine for spotting scopes and le.F.H.

I am absolutely loving the SU76 buffs. They're deadly in numbers and the barrage is nice vs all the MG42s we're seeing after the patch. I'm really struggling to find a reason to build the SU85. It just feels so slow and immobile compared to the 76.

My initial impressions is that the MG change brought us back to launch date in terms of balance of them. While this change may have been necessary for blob control it is going to solidify Axis superiority in narrow maps. Nearly all Soviet indirect fire has been nerfed and they lack smoke (except for Shock Troops). Interesting times a head.

Yeah the decision to not include the changes were medium call in's were tied to teching is really odd considering they admitted call in's were a problem with heavies.

Also Lemon I think the issue people are having against Guard Motor and Rifle Company is the combination of abilities, not single ones by themselves.

MG's shut down guards, yes, but 120's shut down MG's. MG's shut down riflemen, but smoke and white phos shut down MG's. Icing on the cake is mark vehicle and non-exploding high AoE flamer rifles.

Then of course you have the added later punch of call in's, simply put: there is zero downside to going these commanders because there is no trade off, no disadvantage.

Dude, Soviet mortars (hard counter for MGs and Paks) got nerfed to bat shit. How can you still complain about Guards mortar and T-34 call ins? The Stug with Pak walls is damn amazing. Without precision strike, Soviet mortars accuracy is garbage honestly.

Soviet Mortars are the most accurate in the game so I have no idea what your talking about. The only direct nerf that was given was the reduction to 80 damage for the 120 and it's still a beast.

Flares provide a shitload of synergy with infantry pushes.

We've told this to you 1000 times and you're still standing firm by your bullshit.

Priceless.

Soviet and ost mortars have EXACTLY THE SAME ACCURACY.

Only BARRAGE of soviet mortar is more accurate.

Other then that its 300% slower RoF.

Jump back to quoted post26 Jun 2015, 18:50 PMAlexzandvar

The barrage of the Soviet Mortar has no cool down, so uh, it functionally always is more accurate. But I admire your dedication to nitpicking.

IIRC the 120 fires as fast as the Ost mortar does with it's barrage after the first shell.

Do you ever get tiered of lying?

Honestly, u spread false information more than anyone else. then when You get called out you; move the goal post, or stand firm on your lie.

ost mortar has fastest ROF. period

Basically if both soviet and ost mortars were the same, the edge would go to the soviets. I really see no issues with the 120 and 82mm mortar now. What are we arguing here?
