Quality of Life Changes

Removed the auto-rotate from the Wehrmacht 250 Half-track

The British Universal Carrier Vickers weapon now follows attack commands

The Soviet 45mm ATG 1.25 received accuracy modifier for the squad has been removed to match all other anti-tank gun squads.

Good they decided to fix those bugs it's great, even if I can think of another bunch of them still roaming.

-OMG Who cares about those skins! (Activate historical skins only)
-Where is the mortar nerf!? (There are "0" balance changes")

Things i hope for:
-That they also fixed the USF at gun crew size (if it still remained at 1.25)
-Hopeful they add enough vetoes just in case of bad maps.
-More of this bug fixes and Qol patches

PD: rip Nigo.

BUG FIXES!?!!?!?!?!?!

Got my hopes up for a second there

Got my hopes up for a second there

Well, is it really less than you expected? For me, it's much more (and much earlier), especially considering that bugfixes should be top priority and that last patch was just some skins that costed an arm and a leg to get.

What about all the of USF weapon teams having 1.25 received accuracy modifier on them?

With they make them 1.00 received accuracy modifier like all other weapon teams?

The 50. cal MG and the USF 57mm are already hard to use and this makes them almost unbuildable

I always thought mg facing through fog of war was intended part of gameplay. It allowed strategic assaults. I feel like this is going to make okw life a lot harder vs maxim and vickers.

6 new Community-made maps added to the Community Map Rotation

6 maps?
Someone an idea what maps will be added - beside the 3 top ranked map contest winners?

I hope we get more vetos then if adding more maps to the pool.

So b4 popcap are not bug
At least Relic use help from community, thanks guys for you work .
Show Spoiler

You can see changlog with new bugs?

Fixed a bug where it was possible for a player to discover if a building was garrisoned through the fog of war by issuing a garrison building command.

It was a nice feature. You could move along and also "fix" windows breaking sound/animation and any in-FOW activity such as vehicles engines sound or breaking of objects they're crushing...

Fixed a bug that would occasionally cause vehicles such as the Puma and 222 to do unintentional 360 or 180 degree turns

Lets hope they won't do 720 degree turns instead...

The Soviet 45mm ATG 1.25 received accuracy modifier for the squad has been removed to match all other anti-tank gun squads.

You couldn't go without jokes, could you?

Balance

Pripyat returns!

Glad to have new maps and glad to see them doing some updates. We do need a balance patch soon.

Soon is a pretty word. I wonder how relic cherishes the word "soon"

Bugfixes and maps, sweet!

Hopefully bye-bye?
