again they tried to fix, btw u missed the nerf to the nades they now cost 20 mun
I missed momemt when shock became non-doc unit. While volks you have 3-4 squads on field and could throw 5 grenades for 15 muni every time, shocks only 1-2 squads.
I din't know what kind of bug with grenades of shocks, but if it so. Make from regular grenade - grenade assault like volks have in doctrine. They elite and could have elite ability at least.

Obers aren't doctrinal, yet can throw WP nade and bundle nade one after another.
Also, why are you using "its a doc ability" as an argument? Did shocks just became a stock unit that would make your point not ridiculous?
Why shocks grens have share cooldown, while grenate assault and flame grenade in volks don't? All elite german infantry don't have share cooldown on grenades. While shock hould? They don't have sprint.
cause they have a looonnggg cd and is a doc ability, and second it's impossible to fix the shock bug, they tried
From February 7th 2019
"Shock Troops
Due to a programming level bug with Shock Troop grenade cooldowns, a shared cooldown has been reinstated.
Cooldown reduced to 20 from 30 to compensate."
Its 2 seconds better than it was in January, Shocks did have an incredibly quick cooldown at 20s plus vet bonus, but it would be better if they found a way to fix it.

Hon3ynuts thanks for historic record. But i don't mind against assault grenade ability, even in description bullettin says about huge amounts of grenades for shock troops. Just increase cd if needed.it seems theyn just can't have 2 nades with different cd, did u think the mod team did not try to change nade ?

I don't know, i'm not part of mod team. But even if it don't change. Replace one frag grenade to grenade assault to better role fitting.

I every day in my job see obvious solutions that no one don't make and even don't try. I don't know what mod team did.

I really don't understand why the maxim was buffed it has a 6 man squad . I'm happy for it to have more suppresion but not with 6 men. It should be 5 or even 4.
1. Because all SU units have 6 man
2. Because deathlop can't be fixed.

If you don't understand the changes, don't post in feedback threads then.
Even die hard axis fanboys acknowledge the fact that maxim just doesn't suppress fast enough and is completely impotent vs blobs, the change addresses the latter.

They HAVE 6 MAN SQUADS , Soviets do NOT deserve suppression in any shape or form with squad sizes that large. Yet they still do.

What I can say so far: The base performance of the IS2 seems good, the AoE changes dont seem OP. An IS2 needs a lot of time to force units out of heavy cover and the scatter still makes it miss sometimes. Its way worse vs inf than e. g. a Brummbar.
The new vet 1 ability feels only viable if the units are out in the open(not behind heavy cover). Vs garrisoned units it is extremely weak. The reload of the vet 1 ability is much faster than the regular reload, this allows very quick wipes if you use it on a clumped squad right after a regular shot. Very good ability vs blobs

Ok smart ass what do you suggest? Buff their suppression even more with 6 men? why not give them rocket artillery on their backs as well and satchels for close range suicide bombing?
The deathloop alone makes it have 4 man survivability.... even when it was the best MG ingame it was never more survivable than 4 man mgs thanks to the deathloop

1. Penal bullrush is still too strong...
2. Maxims are still dirt useless
3. Unupgraded conscripts are still made of swiss cheese
4. This still leads to the conclusion where penals are necessary just to compete
