a) How will this combat the "death loop"?

b) When can we expect the patch to hit live? My fingers are itching! ;)

you can always test it in game and get a better picture for yourself.

So after not Playing for 9 months, can someone tell me what GCS balance is? Is this a preview for the balance patch thats gonna be implemented in the live game or just another person's mod?

A) I think the idea is that be changing the mobility of the crew that when a model gets picked off the next man up can run faster to the gun and GTFO before dying and starting the loop. Squad formation I'm less sure about...

B) Should be next Tuesday


Thanks for the replies - stoked for Tuesday! 8)

Will the option of destroying previously placed emplacements (pits, boforses etc) be considered in this/next patch? One could argue that it's more of a balance issue (too many emplacements with their popcap -> deal with it until they are destroyed) but I believe this feature should be added at one point.

But that would for example make it possible to self destroy emplacements just before an opponent kills them denying them the xp

I think xp is received for making damage and not killing, and so emplacements could be destroyed only if out of combat.

More or less what OKW does with the Kubel and the Sturm.


Well except one can retreat a squad facing a kubel and sturm.

If a unit gets caught capping a far point, the clown car and flamer will wipe that squad.

So maybe a bit less in that case.

So the third game between Von and Burmie clearly showed how awesome and well-thought was the decision to revert pzfaust changes :foreveralone:

It was like 6-7mins without any counter to M3 <444>3 Good times coming for SU T1

Well yeah, but a single Raken can only do so much against a Flamer Clown Car - as soon as soon as it gets flanked it's going to get chased down on retreat more often than not. Don't get me wrong, OKW has counters available but it makes life a lot harder without fausts.

Isn't that the point though?

The faction has the counters it needs, people just need to l2adapt

Anyone with the micro capabilities of a brick wall can dodge a raketten. Having to buy that silly raketten means the truck comes even later which means the faust will come even later. You will lose map presence because you can´t effectively counter the light vehicle meaning less munitions. Guess what! They upped the price to 30 too lol!

Disproportion in micro between running with Clown Car and using raketen agasint is so huge that it shouldn't be considered as a counter.

Not to mention that Clow Car and run around whole map making you bleed like hell while raketten cannot be everywhere at once.

By the way - nice sense of humor - telling people that it's only L2P while having only ONE 1v1 game as OKW :luvDerp::luvDerp:

But then OKW get luchs/flaktrack and if he doesn´t screw up, Soviets will have hard time with only tier1

If you are able to survive.

Put Penals in M3, run straight to 251/17 and stachel it.

Not to mention that well used M3 will give you so big advantage that you will have T70 when Luchs or 251/17 will hit the field. Like Burmie yesterday. KV8 vs 251/17 :foreveralone:
