I would like this feature implemented to aid other SU players. It should work around most if not all situations.
True communism in the frontlines! Its OUR war after all! (read it comically please)
So i voted Yes.
As everyone said to aid other allied factions is just going to wake up a pandoras box of exploits and bugs
You're a true believer comrade! |
Firstly, I'm not entirely sure if this is possible, from a technical standpoint.
Secondly, this would be incredibly gimmicky, and would open up so many bizarre team-game strategies, most of which I think would be game breaking.
What happens if your targeted teammate is at pop-cap? Does this allow them to go over infinitely if you keep merging into 1-model squads? What happens if my teammate has 100 1-model squads? The "supplying" player only needs one squad, so their MP upkeep would stay high, and the "receiving" player doesn't need to spend MP to reinforce, so the 'over pop-cap' MP drain wouldn't matter.
Wiping vetted squads would become nigh-impossible with a coordinated team. Is my Vet 3, Double Bren IS squad about to be wiped? My Sov teammate can merge and save the weapons AND vet.
What happens when two (or more) soviet players play together? Wipe 5/6 models in one squad and a teammate can instantly restore the squad to full - meaning the first squad wouldn't need to retreat. The second squad could essentially act as a "model mule" for another teammate. That first player would then, as a result, gain vet much faster (as their squads are constantly in combat) while also floating tons of MP, meaning they could call in more squads...
Well, it will open up alot of strategies that would be fun too but if you insist that it will be OP then just let Ostrupen have the same ability too. |
Look Ivan, I'm Amerikan now.
wow this gun go PING! when is out of bullets Cyka.
And Ivan could also be a brit tea sapper too |
In team games, you can help your teammates by giving them resources, most commonly done through,
Fuel and muni - Building caches or call in fuel drops
But there is no way you could give 'manpower', imagine you have alot of manpower that you can spare some for your teammates? Make Soviet's cons merge ability universal! This mean they should be possible to merge into all allied frontline units in the game (with a few exceptions ofc like call-ins). |
would surely be nice to see a brush up in this department, but i doubt this has high priority atm. so better not get your hopes up that anything with respect to bulletins gets revamped, unless you're willing to do it yourself
I dont see what else needs their attention big time at the moment, except for minor balance tweaks. They revamped Commanders, worked on some big patches all these years. So, this would be the right time to focus on this. |
The balance team's next major revamp work must be on this game's bulletins, most of which are a joke. There are alot of repeats like those mortar reload and accuracy bulletins. OKW has some funny ones, like that "251 infrared halftrucks" buils 75% faster and the sWS supply halftruck 5% more movement speed lol like who even wants to rush these units.
There are more like these in other factions as well which could be tweaked to make them something people use and specialize their gamestyle. Personally, the Sov and Ost have way too many bulletins (most of it are trash) and it should be brought down to meaningful and useful numbers.

Tbh I always lock the turret (hold fire mode) cuz I dont want the turret to be spinning around during the time when I need the main gun to fire immediately...
It wouldn't solve all balance differences because of: turret
I think it would cuz if a player with good micro skills, sees a 'very notciable' animation, they could just easily dodge. But ofc, if AVRE is hidden behind a bush or behind the FOW, there is no way to tell. |
I know there has been alot of discussion on this unit...so I'm here to make just one point which I think is fair.
- AVRE should have a better firing animation. That is as noticable as the Sturmtiger. That I think would solve any balance differences.

Or how about you give them free med kits after upgrade to LMG like how 5-man grens get free med kits after the upgrade. That will work. |
Jeez guys talk about Gaurds ASS troops here! y'all went way off topic... |
