Recently a lot of newcomers joined the game after humble bundle promotion
In automatch those new players are still going through placement matches and know little about the game.
I just wanted to remind people that anyone was a "noob" at first and that is in our best interest to keep those players within the active community overtime.
Please avoid mockery and cancerous behaviour, be patient and explain them game mechanics/encourage them in learning the game.
wow i was sure this moment would never happen in my life.
i support your post

Currently these work as you see in the video, but they're being patched out next week* to stop abuse.
Jackson can double tap, but its more difficult than the JT or KT for example. I made a post a few months back about it.

where did you read that the patch is coming next week? |
I wanted to do that; limit AT guns to attack buildings (to bust emplacements/bunkers) and vehicles only, and to remove the ugly overhead yellow icon. However, Miragefla vetoed it and the proposal never got through 
I also wanted to do the same for dedicated TDs (which would also save players from having to click the prioiritise vehicle button every damn time they re-enter the Jackson). Same result.
For generalist tank etc prioiritise vehicle, I also wanted to change the overhead ugly and intrusive yellow icon with the squad-shield padlock from brace. That way it takes up less space, and you can also keep track of unit status from the unit shields in the top-right, or also from the tactical minimap. Same story 
could we know what was miragefla oppinion on that when you guys had that discussion, so we could see the whole picture? |
Maybe so. Most of my friends quit playing almost altogether after brits, and none of them have come back. None of the patches since have been enough to convince any of them to come back beyond a game or two.
And in most cases those games have reinforced their decision to not bother with coh2.
This is the perspective I have. I'm the weird guy who never left and I'm particularly aware of the survivor bias in these balance forums and patches.
i know that we dont got a great playerbase. but hey this my game, i love it, i will support it and support anybody that put time in it.

Like I've said being dragged through all their patches, if they just stuck to QOL changes and Bug fixes, they'd be unassailable in having produced excellent patches improving the game.
But once the Jr. Game Dev hats get put on, we start running into endless issues.
You can't balance, fix, or (re)design this game without either improving the game engine, or opening up what is available to the mod tools. (Or what relic is willing to do.)
A lot of people would give a lot for the opportunity to do what they're doing. But more than that many of the people involved with this patch find it very important how this will go on their CVS/resumes. This is still technically a AAA game. This is one of the most worrying aspects of this process to me.
these people can still do it. im sure they can ask mr smith how to help, to test stuff and give their non biased oppinion. but maybe some people got to much pride to do it or they realise they really need to work.
they maybe can't fix the game, but they can improve things, or atleast test stuff for maybe coh3.
and when mr smirth and mirage started to doing balance stuff, the game just got better.

At some point, you just have to accept the fact that it is impossible to make everyone happy and stop wasting your time.
Most people see the patch as a big net benefit and there is no need to spend 90% of your forum time arguing with a single low-rank user. Thank you for the work that you are doing.

but we need to take time sometimes to respond to these noobs since the spread false informations, rumors, and everthing that is toxic for this game. |
Said player could have figured the changes out for themselves by launching the game and playing DBP. The difference in performance a day-to-night difference. Unfortunately the ignorant ones turn out to be the ones that have the loudest of mouths. That's a global phenomenon, which I am not qualified to treat.
Ideally I would like to have infinite time to rewrite the patchnotes completely with consistent notation, etc. However, with the 1580-ish files that this patch modifies/introduces that's out of the question.
did you just asked that player to play the actuel game? noo nooo that to much work to do. IT SO more easier to come here and post shit 24/7 with other noobs like him support the shit he post.
it isnt his fault that he is rank 700, it is mr smith fault, and the game fault. not him nooo.. he is such a good player, with such good skils.
the pro players like luvnest that sugested the luch time nerfs, dont know nothing.

You should probably explain target size and RA to people, or at least use consistent descriptions then.
You describe RA changes and target size changes synonymously, which is confusing to those who don't spend hours in the attribute editor.
dont you think that mr smith is doing already enough for this game?
doing this for free, while getting attacked here every day by the same damn FUCKING NOOBS
and now you ask him even more? why dont you ask these noobs to learn something? |

or maybe these people should stop posting shit 24/7 when they dont know what they talk about? and start playing the game?
maybe they just start learning how to game work but not asking buffs or nerfs all the time becouse they loose some game?

I understand the approach in regards to luchs rush, but still looks a bit ackward to me. The amount of time to deploy it seems a bit too much imo.
it is 45 secs more. im an okw player, i love to use the luchs. but i dont see why people think that this will kill the luchs...
while sometimes when i rush a luchs against brits or soviets, i destroy em becouse of lacks of snare(brits) and lack of at(soviets) since in the actuel games soviet are forced to go t1
