will you support remove supression from panzerweffer or give me an advice ?

Axis fanboy check? I dont care if PF have suppression or not, just like any other rocket arty if you end up taking damage from it (be it katy,PF, cali or matters) you most likely will have to retreat anyway.

So with or without suppresion PF is still will be just as deadly.

how wide of " near misses" buddy ? =))

You can open patch notes and check the AOE radius and compare it to other howis and then be a smart guy and remind youself that other howis wont even scratch the enemy with near misses =))))

there are only 3 shots with fucking big scatter. AOE + Damage won't do jack shit. Just dont blob.

And what? I've already said that B4 is worst as area denial weapon, when it comes to dealing raw damage or stopping inf you dont need more then 3 shots, because after third shot of ML20\LeFH enemy would most likely either reteat or move out of an arty zone. And chances of hitting\stoping enemy with B4, even considering scatter, are much highter then with ML20\LeFH.

Also other howis do have scatter aswell, it depens on range you know.

Yeah, it is a fact because you say so, very convincing i have to say.

The patch is just go live for like 3-4 days, normally pp will have to take time to adjust to the changes and data have to be collected before any conclusion, but some pp seem like just cant stand it when a previous meme unit of alies show some sight of may be become viable. Like, Op post is pure wining, nothing more.

Alright we can give a month, what would happen? Sure ppl who complain that B4 is uncounterable might learn how to pick off-maps to counter it.

But I've already pointed out that B4 is not an uncounterable unit, it can be countered just like any other howi. How time will fix short cooldown, how time will fix ridiculous AOE profile and suppresion?

Sure we might say that ppl will adapt and will retreat after they hear B4 shot fired, but isnt it already a sign of overperfomance? Other howis arent forcing you to instantly retreat in order not to lose your units, other howis operate on RNG, unlike B4, which even with near misses already paying for itself.

Unit being viable doesnt mean that it should be overperforming and overbuffed. And even if B4 should be just as good as it is right now, it should at least requare more CP to be unlocked and cost additional 20-30 or so fuel.

OP might be just whining, but I'm not defending nor agreeing with the OP. I'm stating that B4 is by far much better, deadlier and cost-effective unit with minimal RNG involved compared to other howis, dispite being completly equal in terms of cost. There is no way one can present ML20\LeFH to be on pair with B4 or close to B4, unless you bring examples of dark magic where 8 out of 10 shots wiped something in a row.

And whole discussion is now a guideline with ppl explaining how you can pick a commander with offmap to counter B4, how counter barrage is OP dispite being removed from the game and "wow allies have cool howi now, axis players is just jealous".

But I don't use it. I used it a couple of times before the patch. Used it 3 times after the patch. Still useless in 3v3. No matter how I use it.
T3485 is cheapter, has 800 HP (so it can tank 4*160 + a 100dmg snare, something the E8 cannot with 720 HP), has much much better AI through MGs, fires faster, rotates faster, accelerates faster, has smaller profile.
T34/85 is probably one of the best tanks there is.

And IMHO the biggest benefits of T34/85 are:

1) Soviets have stock rocket arty
2) In multiple commanders which are great (elites, mortar...)

But 85 still suffers from the same problems EZ8 suffers from anyway. Point is, IF EZ8 came with an overall better commander, it would have been fine addition to the army. But EZ8 is a "selling point" of the Rifle company, because other abilities are garbage. But EZ8 was never supposed to be a selling point of it, its just all the nerfs of the commander made it look like it is.

Its just the fact that EZ8 comes with USF version of ostheer "joint opperations" commander. Very specific, inflexible and fitted only for a specific type of play.

If I had to guess I would say that they game applies damage around the area the fighting take place.

Most likely bullets fly in some sort of an arc, some of them might just fly in the air, some might just unrealistically hit the ground (actually you can see on the video that most of the bullets are hitting ground infront of mortar pit for some reason), some might fly strate forward and might end up hitting objects inbetween. But yes, even if mortar pit wasnt inbween but on the side, it might have been hit aswell, but chances would be very small.

It doesnt really matter in the end, since we are not trying to make our own coh2 by reverse engineering.

My point was, that such system exists in the game and can be applyed to sandbags making them take damage during the fights, and be less of a "build and forget".

I don't think so.

It is probably calculated without a collisions check.

There is mode that bullets have projectiles and when I tried it my pc laged like crazy.

Here you go. It doesnt matter if its collision or not, fact is, they still do colide and they still do damage.

Individual bullets might not have collision (there are special string for it, as I said) simular to AT weapons\tanks, but they still do colide with non targeted objects and do damage. They seem to follow different logic, where its calculated what is being hit with bullet projectile, rather then what is stopping the projectile on its path to the target.

To put it more simple, its like a dice roll which decides where end possition of bullet projectile will be and if it rolls on top of the another object bullet retains all its properties and damage, unlike for so called "true" collidable projectiles colision of which is calculated in realtime (thats why mod lagged your PC).

Its a different form of collision, but collision non the less. If they didnt colide then either bullets would had just flying past the object or just had a particle effect without any in game effect.

Well, just in case, not every hit on mortar pit do damage, because not every hit is "penetrating" one and the same would have happen if the mp would have been neutral.
