If you compare the crater of the explosion with the position of the rifleman the sheel lands behind him. The feeling you got may be just because the explosion was just behind his head.

You can use "." and "," to go frame by frame on youtube. Answer on top.

Also damage didn't change IIRC.

You looked to the false second...look to 45:08 where the model get the shell on its head

It is not that there only things changed which are seen in patchnotes.
There was many times failure was done...like the mg which shot above half map.

Or the isg with 300speed and faster than any other unit in game...

The soldier was moving towards the explosion. Damage got calculated when shell hit the ground, the explosion fx cames afterwards. That means soldier wont get additional damage by walking into the explosion fx, he would get the damage if he was inside AoE when shell hit the ground.

They should revert cost change and improve aoe..it's still useless against garrisons as it does zero damafe to troops inside and is still mediocre as anti indirect fire unit.

Yes, the 85 range auto-attack is clearly a crisis when compared to the incredible 60 range of the USF mortar.

Seen any mortar pits since the patch? Most every faction recieved nerfs to their indirect which was overdue.

Is there any justifiable balance reason for this unit and the pack howitzer not being able to retreat?

Like Would they be too strong if they could retreat? I certainly don't think so. It seems like they just wanted to make them different for the hell of it.

Those were Lelic patches, this patch has been extensively tested for bugs beforehand by the whole community.

New ISG with smoke and doctrinal fire barrage is good. Just used it and thought it was just right.

Im not a fan of "mains" in general, but damn....

I think low rank OKW mains is one of the craziest things I have ever seen in video games :-//

+ 1

-Give pack howie and isg retreat button
-Give isg normal/higher cost
-Give isg better aoe
-Give pack howie a lower cooldown

So much bs useless unit for the "muh asimmetrical balance"

Range isn't an issue.
You AREN'T supposed to camp it near your truck.

A retreat button tho will make micro manage of this unit as mobile indirect fire easier.

It's literally the same, but cheaper and you need to use barrage at long range. Unless you were using it as AT, but then I have news for you....

But really, in paper changes are good, but in game i dont feel it. Barrage are not powerful, maybe need buff it. Shoot at maxim/vickers, lose 1 model, change position. I prefer just normal mortar, then move this ISG. At least pachawi have powerful barrage and range.

Yes, a couple of times now. The incendiary from Feuerstorm is good. I like what the balance team did with it. The game didn't need 100-range snipers like the old version of this or the UKF mortar pit.
