Fall Balance Preview

You people can't be serious. Relic actually introduces the things we asked for (allowing community members to have some control over balance chances) and now you are bashing Kyle for it. Get real....

In my opinion if you want to nerf penal you have to up conscript in the same patch to compensate.

Without a viable main core infantry i'm afraid that soviet are going to be a dead faction.

No adjustments to the Panther while the Stug remains the same. Ostheer will still have to rely on T3 spam to surfive. Topkek.

That is probably the best that could have happened, imagine a nerf to the StuG without anything else. Oh well, since we all don't have the clarity of vision Relic has, I guess we can never know the true glorious masterplan they have for this game...

A nerf to the StuG would have killed Ostheer from the game. However not buffing the Panther keeps T4 out of the game.

"OKW Battlegroup unable to reinforce if cut-off from friendly territory."

why this limitation is for OKW only ? this limitation should apply on British and UKF too

I thought OKW was the only that could reinforce when cutoff?

Jump back to quoted post18 Jul 2017, 17:44 PMRedT3rror

This ignorant fool never played UKF so he obviously doesn't know about that. (btw Ostheer bunker can also still reinforce)

which is good, because the idea of airburst shells on a direct-fire weapon system, especially a tank destroyer, is ridiculous. they didn't exist in ww2 and they still don't today (the XM29 or whatever the hell it was being the one exception).

A shame this kind of ignorance makes the game rot

Feedback



Luchs meta still will remain imo since pretty much nothing of that was changed bar the Kubel but the command panther followup is evidently much less dominant, which is nice. OKW T1 is still unattractive - flak HT has very poor impact for its cost.

Walking Stuka change isnt the biggest deal in 1v1, but judging from what I saw this game I think it might be situationally even more lethal in teamgames.



Maxims are a lot better than they were. This is good.

ML20 might be too strong - it seems very lethal even out to max range scatter, making base bombardment almost always rewarding. Howitzer cost changes are excellent though.
