No buff on conscripts needed. I've used them with incredible effectiveness against MGs in this patch. Axis will have to readjust their early game meta and play more of a combined arms early game now. Just like in vCoH. This will make for a much more dynamic and exciting early game.
with the current metagame being what it is (mg42s, mg42s everywhere!) is this still working as brilliantly as it used to?
Yes. As long as you know how to move your units in a long line as opposed to a ball, no amount of mg42s will stop you when you straight don't care about pinned squads when another 2-3 squads will complete the assault.
I have a GTX590 and the FPS is not good enough at 1920x1200. I am trying to increase it to be a stable 60FPS, but every option I touch barely impacts the FPS. I turn everything down to low and change resolution to 1280x800 and it is still within the same ballpark FPS range. How is this possible that nothing is impacting the FPS? Thanks.
