Rifle grenades one shot most of the time.... it is.. pretty horrible, how they can let something like this into the game is beyond me, + the M8 shotgun thing, did we ever see such things in CoH1? I don't think so.

+ISU152 one shots too much, they still haven't fixed that.

Yeah thanks, gg too.

LOL XD LUKE, UR NOT MY SON! SPANKY IS MY SON.. GODDAMNIT. IMMA RIP U A NEW MAGGOT.

Short and sweet patch. Issues remain but as Pqumsieh just said on his stream (which is live atm, go watch!):

-Strafing run should not be pinning on retreat, and he is aware of the problem.
-Hell look into whether the Stug got the previously forgotten AoE buff.

He said he prefers making changes in small increments, and then adjusting if necessary, which I think is a good perspective to practice.

Indeed.. I agree. Right now it seems as though we're heading in the right direction. Although I think T34s would need a tiny buff (not sure if it was meant to be a tank like this? if the devs meant it this way), cost of the SU85 increased. Strafing run fixed. +Limit the opel usage to 2/3 max. 1 is too little and the effect gained from it is nothing. Most users will only get 2 out as.. 3 is already 600mp and that's a lot. +Having a 3rd one most games can be risky as you never know when the t70 might hit the field to come and just finish it off on some farther sectors.

Keep going..

Yeah and.. I think I agree with Stepphen there on that one. Please try to make flanking more rewarding in this game. 2 conscr vs a gren and MG is a very 50/50 case. Really depends on ultrasmall factors.. If well executed then yes.

But the thing is, shouldn't small arms fire already be.. I mean, more effective close range? So, taking that into account it should already help in flanking or peel off those mgs.

But apparently not.. anyways yeah, make flanking more rewarding ..

I have talked about strafing run in other topics. This is not relevant to it, and even if it was: most Soviet AT solutions are not affected by strafing run.

Soviet AT used to be lackluster before open beta. During the Stress Test prior to open Beta, they performed a change:

They buffed the SU-85: armor and AI capabilities. They nerfed the Panther :range, armor and cost, they improved speed a tiny bit. imho, this was too much, they should have done one or the other, then iterate as necessary.

I think the Panther should definetely be stronger head to head than anything the Soviets can bring non doctrinally, the catch being that Germans are designed around being a little more defensive, so the Soviets need to use their versatility to supplement against these german heavy units: they have barrages, they have button, they have at nades, wonderful inexpensive mines.

Vehicles are supposed to be the driving force behind the german army. The soviet army dictates the pace of the game at the beginning, and should mobilize to delay those vehicles from arriving. If they do arrive, you have doctrinal options to facilitate handling a situation where th egermans have arrived with heavy vehicles (mark vehicle, guards, cloaked ATG's, etc).

Yeah.. good post.
