Thread: Spring ninjas - SBP Error & Bug Reporting18 May 2018, 07:03 AM Jump back to quoted post17 May 2018, 22:45 PMCruzz What would a Relic patch be without a few fun surprises? Soviets: Guard squad require 3 cps (will be shown as 2cps in commander selection menus and tooltips, but you will not be able to call the squad in at 2cps) Guard and Penal PTRS lost their extra 13 damage they were doing against buildings, so their DPS against buildings is nearly halved. Conscript PTRS still has it. USF: Jackson far range was moved from 60 to 55, very slightly nerfing pen and accuracy for ranges 30-59 Pack Howitzer Heat Barrage damage per round from 160 to 120, aoe near from 1 to 0.85 USF 81mm barrage angle scatter increased from 9 to 10 and distance scatter max from 8 to 9 USF 81mm auto-attack distance scatter ratio from 0.08 to 0.0875 Recon Company Raid Tactics ability will now last forever, giving all infantry units +7 vision for the rest of the match. Vehicles will lose their capping ability after 45 seconds of being manned, but decrewing and recrewing will give it back again. Brits: Universal Carrier front armor is actually 8 instead of 7 like in notes, rear armor is 4.1 correctly Vickers K got an accuracy nerf like bren gun but still 60 muni Bren gun mid range not changed. Patchers forgot to change the weapon checked for sapper double LMG limitation so now they can equip two brens from racks again. OKW: Panther and Panzer IV also got a 50% accuracy increase on one of their MGs against snipers as the same MG is used on them as on the Luchs Volksgrenadiers get autoheal at vet 4 instead of vet 5 (Was this already in the previous patch? Mod tools tell me no, but some people tell me yes) Valiant Assault recharge time from 60 to 120 seconds Volksgrenadier flame nades require you to have bought an SWS, doesn't need to be setup Ost: Ostwind on hulldown also lost it's -50% cooldown in addition to the reload removal that affects other vehicles Jump back to quoted post18 May 2018, 01:39 AMBrain98 I'd like to add something if this hasn't been discovered already. In their original notes from one month ago, they stated that medkits would "heal all squads in a radius around the squad that picks up the medkit" (posted here, check "General Changes": https://community.companyofheroes.com/discussion/244965/spring-update-balance-preview-changelog ). That change was later removed in their final version, but it's still there in the game. I took some video of it here: M3 Halftrack (USF Mechanized Company): https://youtu.be/-crQgJvZcxo Sturmpioneers: https://youtu.be/2DU9k7SuGek Jump back to quoted post18 May 2018, 03:35 AMcochosgo Not being able to lay demos with any of my engies. Has anyone being able to? maybe buying any upgrades bugs the ability Thx. I guess the For mother Rusian change got in too? Had no time to test it yesterday. And to make something clear. The balance team could not test the last version. There was no final mod. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: [CoH2] Changelog16 May 2018, 18:23 PM As part of the Spring update, we will be implementing some changes and fixes to the map making pool. Credit to the community map making team for identifying and fixing these issues. Map removed • After looking at our in-house data and assessing community sentiment, we will be removing Semiosky Summer from the 1v1 automatch pool. MAP CHANGES AND FIXES 1vs1 Semoskiy Winter • Wooden fence in the cemetery was passable for infantry. This has been corrected. 2vs2 Semoskiy Winter • Wooden fence in the cemetery was passable for infantry. This has been corrected. Poltawa • A patch of the map near the South West fuel point did not display fog of war properly. This has been corrected. Rhzev Winter - Custom Games Only • An additional map entry point in the South has been removed. • Graphical issues with the new shoreline have been adjusted so that everything blends more smoothly. This includes height mapping issues on several roads. • HQ markers, territory points, map entry points and bunker markers in the area of the North spawn have all been adapted to ensure ownership belongs to players 3 and 4. This should prevent the errors on this map with player 1 having ownership of the North territory. • Deep snow has been removed across the entire map, as many areas were completely missed. Areas of snow will still leave footprints and tracks, but won’t affect gameplay at all. 3vs3 Port of Hamburg • Tweaked pathing from North and South side from the bases to the middle of the map • Some missing texture bugs from the live version have been fixed • Removed two spawns for consistency.
