NEW COMMANDER PREVIEW - 7.0 version

Putting aside Brit faction, what you do guys think about new Dshk? Thanks to new changes (higher arc of fire) it's super effective in certain maps and can deal even with ostheer lights which makes it quite hard to counter. With new conscript changes new Dshk spam may return like in old days.

I personally think the arc of fire could stay but unit itself should have 5 model squad to compasate their performance

I think it was wrong to nerf M-42 AT efficiency because of it was abused for its new AI capabilities.

None of its AT efficiency is nerfed. Except now it has a slightly higher cost.

And canister shot neutered.

I still have no idea why ability was soft-removed by crippling its range into unusable state instead of keeping 50 range and increasing(ex: doubling) reload time for canister shot.

People didn't got M-42 because of its AT support, but because it could do something outside of AT as well and now that's not only not possible due to direct exposure to fire as a weapon team, but also due to cost increase, making it an "Oh shit there is a light in my base and I need to do something about it NOW" panic option instead of early game alternative to ZiS.

So you can't call them in anymore to save you because they cost 40 more mp? That's rough. Maybe a better solution is to increase all german light veh costs by 80mp so you'll have twice as much time to prepare.

Nah, allies, especially soviets, bleed more than axis factions. Slapping 100mp on the price tag and taking off 20 armor for every vehicle could do the trick. Maybe reducing popcap, so the m-42 is not nerfed into oblivion.

Someone should hire balance experts with alot of actual ingame experience like katitof to make these balance patches more reasonable.

Is it possible to give the Command Tiger shared veterancy while the command aura is active? Would make it worth using at the cost of the Tiger's lethality.

Jump back to quoted post7 May 2019, 20:17 PMSander93

Thought about that, but it's impossible to code sadly. Shared veterancy is apparently something that can't be temporarily turned on/off.

Bummer

Not sure about the veterancy shuffling to be honest, seems like an overall nerf. Combat blitz at vet 4 feels very odd. Is it too much to ask that blitz come stock and make vet 4 something else entirely? Smoke cannisters (like Sherman) maybe?

Brits were the weakest faction couple of months ago.
The ONLY things that changed since are:
-AT nade on sappers
-WEAKER brens

There is a certain logical flaw in that statement of yours.

Just for clarification the M3 passenger accuracy nerf applies to Soviet M3? If yes, why is that needed?

Jump back to quoted post9 May 2019, 12:02 PMblvckdream

- Royal Arty buffs
- Crocodile buffs
- Tactical Support regiment rework

SVT cons should be default. Would definitely nice to see.

Even for Grenadiers having G43, would be nice too.

I completely agree. Remove the Penals: they are superfluous as the second main unit at the start as engineers on the steroids and now that simply overlap the conscripts. Conscripts to get SVT-40 and Soviet infantry units will finally have order.
