hello,

in my last match i fielded the usf aa hafltrack. please take a look at, and adjust the way this vehicle moves. right now it is incredibly difficult to micro/control with the way it is moving. when ordered to attack it should just turn its back on the enemy unit and fire if its in range, not just charge into it as if its a battering ram. its attack move seems really bad too.

Yeah, with Relic's change to vehicle pathing, any click within a relatively close area will make the halftrack move forwards. It's better just to use the reverse move when it's in combat/close to combat.

Bit of a pain, really.

Why they make vehicle pathing better with veterancy is beyond me, movement should just be a standard and keep rng for the shooting.

Wasn't there a change to give it a 360degree fire angle? I might be wrong but I thought I saw a patch note on it a while back but I know I used it the other day and it isn't the case.

If so it is irritating having to orientate your rear army to often face volks which are more often then not going to be sporting the AT package. I know people will say L2P but my god with the new pathing this unit is a bitch to use.

The 360 fire arc was removed as Relic thought the unit became too easy to use.

It was due to the gun shooting through the cabin of the AAHT. I would rather it have 360 fire and ez pathfinding where I dont have to smash U everywhere I go tbh.

@Relic: pls revert change on AAHT or even push the gun model up slightly to shoot right over the top. This unit requires so much micro already to get it to work, adding in the U to move is just over micro.

Ah, my apologies, I thought it was due to it being too easy to use and thus too effective. It can be difficult to judge Brad's responses in their Twitch

Pathing improvements are being looked at. Thanks

It was a lot better not only becouse it could use attack move and less micro. It also faced opponent with frontal armor. The version with reduced angle has to turn back to fire so it a lot easier to penetrate for light AA like machineguns or 222 cannon. 222 can also kite it thanks to that. So although I agree its a strange way of ballancing game the 360 degree ht was really overpowered and would need some nerfs if it was buffed back to that state.

SHOUT IT OUT!

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?

Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.

Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.

Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete The lack of April Fools this year is odd lol

Willy Pete: @Rosbone not dead yet. when that happens the font will switch to Papyrus

dasheepeh: it was an honor guys

aerafield: yeah I already prepared my "Can't believe there's comic mode for the 10 daily visitors even on this April 1st"

01 Apr 2025, 20:29 PM

Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead

01 Apr 2025, 20:19 PM

dasheepeh: no comic sans font for april 1st this year?

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes
01 Apr 2025, 02:36 AM

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
