i have always hated those mortars. relic should add new animation that stupid soldiers jumping out of the mortar landing point when they are on the open field. instead of waiting to get wiped off.

you can see fucking mortar coming from up sky. so at least you try to jump away.

An animation or something like thatjust to "buff" the units isn't needed imho, but rebalancing some stats (like scatter and such). What would it be of static weapons then? Would they stop firing a HMG just to breakdance their way out of a mortar barrage?

lol. weapon squads shouldnt have to jump away. but increasing scatter would do.

Except you don't. Once you realise you are the one that is fired upon, you are dead if you stood in the open when the shot was fired.

Soldiers normally hit the dirt after the first shell lands and they wait in such position for the end of barrage as normally there is more than one shot fired on the position.

It'd depend whether the mortar shell will travel to your location faster than the speed of sound reaching. Considering the high arcs of mortars, it's probably quite feasible for mortar shells to approach the ground slower than the sound, though I have no real idea about what the velocity of relevant mortar shells are (most I can find is Wikipedia claiming the obsolete Canadian M19 60mm Mortar's muzzle velocity is 168 m/s).

It doesn't travel faster than the speed of sound. But the difference between the time when you hear it coming your way and the time it hits is about as long as your reaction time. The time you need to jump into cover or hit the dirt is absolutely out of question.

You can ofc jump into cover when you hear the mortar firing, though that would mean all the soldiers are laying on the ground all the time. This will often happen if you are under constant artillery fire for few days, soldier would look for shelter just when they hear the guns fire, not the shells landing or going their way.

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.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.

Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.
