The reason I despise the new changes is because it improves one aspect of the game negligibly and that is in the area of house hopping, but at the same time adding a layer of frustration to areas that previously were not a problem.
In all my thousands of Coh2 games I never considered house hopping to be such an issue that it had a negative impact on my gaming experience. It was simply a non issue.
Some people will undoubtedly point to grenades and morters being ineffective against houses because squads can just exit and re-enter but to me it seems many people want to hard counter units in buildings with little effort and little skill. Personally I think this just further justifies indirect fire and I see that as a detriment to the game.
and putting a sqquad inside a house is the pitomy of skill i presume?
