I generally don't buy DLC. I was considering for a while to buy a commander, but in the end I decided not to. I do not really want to support this DLC policy and I think most of them are overpriced. |
Ok, thanks, I didn't watch the stream, I only saw the post in the forum.
Makes it even more difficult to find out now what was actually scaling and what wasn't then. |
Gokkel I think you misunderstood PQ when he explained the veterancy bug. It was mostly only affecting the non-WFA armies i.e. Soviets and Ostheer. I have definitely noticed vet 3 conscripts and even penal troops performing better than they previously had been after the fix.
His post didn't say anything about only old factions being affected. He only mentioned that Riflemen were not bugged.
Maybe some models in your squads still had the veterancy bonus because they didn't die, but it could also just have been RNG or imagination. Or the bug didn't affect everything as you said, but it is impossible to know now what has been affected and what not and for how long if we won't get additional information. |
This statement proves you never used them. Ever.
Maybe he uses Shocktroops from long range, I had some game lately against someone who used them like that |
They could go head to head with Shocks and ripped Cons early game...good change,L2Adapt
No, just no. |
It's not a nerf. The Bodyguards got buffed, and as such their cost went up.
Well, there is still that other nerf mentioned by Cruzz in the first post. |
I found another ninja change, The sturm officer reinforce cost for ober models is now 35 as opposed to 30.
The Units themselves got buffed but the cost change was not stated in the patch notes and is not reflected in the inital cost of the unit
I don't know why they keep ninja-nerfing the Sturm Offizier every now and then. If I remember right the last big patch had also ninja nerfs for this unit. I am just surprised because I didn't hear anyone complain about it. |

at 39 min it basicly killed a JT without any help
It also had Mark Vehicle on it, still that looked really annoying. |
Did, it did reward it less. The bug is fixed now and more importantly note that no one even noticed it up until PQ disclosed it.
That is the most funny part for me. If this bug really existed, and let's assume it lasted already for a while, all the statements saying how great Volksgrenadiere etc. are at Veterancy 5 in comparison to unexperienced ones were probably garbage because chances are we didn't even see proper Veterancy 5 Volksgrenadiere until now Unless people never lost models on their squad, it was just the power of imagination. |
When I played with Kübelwagen people who called OP against it were complaining because their same old strategies (if you can call Maxim spam a strategy) didn't automatically counter the Kübelwagen anymore (pinned down Maxims could still easily destroy Kübelwagen). They didn't try to build anything else, they didn't get anti-tank guns out. They didn't try to attack it from more than one side, they didn't try to put ambushes in, they didn't try to lay mines etc., basically the stuff that Germans are already used to having to do against stuff like M3 and the Dodge. People didn't put much effort in the past into killing the Kübelwagen because you just had to wait until its pathing eventually went batshit insane and it killed itself. This is why I don't really care currently about their complaints too much right now. I actually even heard such complaints already before the patch occasionally.
When my enemies actually start to try to adapt to the Kübelwagen, I will maybe change my opinion.
With Americans however I think a problem is that their Bazookas are too inaccurate against it now. A target size increase could fix this. |
