Blitzkrieg Mod Forum

Hello, a week has passed and we bring updated beta of 5.1.5 - according to feedback we fixed several bugs and forgotten things from previous beta and also added several new things. In this beta you will also find new revised maps with several fixes. The beta should be updated automatically for you v...

Yes, in the future it would be possible. But when you speak about faction design - it is not as easy as "make Riflemen more universal and Rangers more specilized". You need to consider what impact would such change have on the entire game. If you give Bazooka upgrade to Riflemen, you need ...

What other points? You said that there is a problem: US early game lacks AT capacity. And you suggested a solution: give to Riflemen an option to upgrade bazookas and as consequence of Rifles being more universal, Paratroopers/Rangers could be more specilized. US has the HEAT grenades as early game ...

1) Give vehicle suppression ability to Wehrmacht Suppression Stormtrooper 2) Give ability to Wehrmacht grenadiers? We wanted to keep the ability PE/CW unique. Once we give it to WM, people will start demanding it for Rangers too and suddenly it will be everywhere. Though I was thinking about adding...

It is most likely that you set the installation path wrong during the mod installation. It would be easiest for you to enter your CoH product key, which you received with your CoH disk, to the Steam and then look up BK mod on Steam and install it from there - it installs automatically into the right...

The specific speed changes from the first beta are gone now, in the 2nd beta they were brought down for all vehicles by 25%, this means that the relative speed between vehicles is still the same, that means that if Hetzer was faster than Cromwell, then Hetzer is still faster than Cromwell.

"Total independence"...tanks still lose some sight when they are moving which means that if you lower their sight (when they stand still) to the same value as their gun range is, then when they move they would see much shorter range.

In the beta the rear penetration chances of medium tank guns vs heavy tanks have been increased. Keep in mind this: However the rear penetration changes should help with this, I think. Keep in mind that in CoH engine as a "rear hit" counts any shot that lands anywhere on ther rear half of ...

Also how do you start the mod? What launch icon do you use?

Maybe we should just give shermans their historical armor protection and gun values? I don't really mind having easy eights the price of panzer 4s(or even more expensive) because they really do deserve to be great tanks because of how role specific they are(only in one doc compared to panzer 4s whi...

What? What does translation have to do with anything here? Jalis is being ironic here - it is reaction to the part of the post where I provide a taste of the unnecesarily long version of the changelog. Also like the changes suggested by Mencius on Henschel patrol, don't know if it has already been ...

Hi, an updated version of 5.1.5 beta is available now on Steam. It is focused purely on putting the vehicle speeds on some more appropriate levels because that was the most pressing issue with the first version. The only change that is not speed-related is addition of "Hold position" to AB...

A player could have built a Ranger squad in the first place instead of converting his 101st squad into a compromise squad. Additionally, they have the most snipers available out of any doctrine to provide long range anti infantry firepower. That option also doesn't cost munitions which makes it all...

There is a lot to test and we will try to update the beta at least once per week to address issues that will pop up (if needed) . Most of these changes are possible to adjust if there is a good reason for them. Maybe it was a bit missleading? It seemed clear to me. If that's the reason, then why is...

That could work, though it is not a priority right now.

AB pathfinders don't have it yet? I thought we gave it to all units already? Anyway, it should not be a problem.

I just checked it and you're right - G43s apply posture change, not movement change. Same for CW LT bonus on infantry. Change to G43 ability would be possible I guess, but is it really needed? Thre is already ton of things that suppress infantry quickly and giving another option to do so seems as a ...

Has anybody banned Hawks or Kwok? No, they provide feedback and act normally/politely and that is appreciated. Tiger went over the line, more than once actually. If someone is "passionate" (or that is at least the word that has been used a lot in this context lately) about the mod, does it...

is that true for coh1 as well? I am not 100% sure but I think it is not. You can set something, which is called (iirc) "posture" and there applies that 1 = crawling, 2= normal infantry movement, 3= sprint etc. but speeds of infantry can be adjusted. This is just my speculation based on th...

Hello, I have noticed this big conversation and I would like to know: Why are you banning players from forums for feedback? They are giving you their opinion and you should be grateful for that. That´s all I wanted to say. Your behavior is shameful. Great day to you like the Britain is. Hello, Eral...

Panzer-lehr: I have said it here - the speed changes are not applied because they are realistic, it was said already: The reason for the speed changes was actually the rear penetration adjustments which were requested by your buddy Warhawks. He was right that flanking was not rewarding and very ofte...

seha, I am really not surprised that you are the first one to defend Tiger. But have a look at what you said - "you think you can mute everyone who disagree with you" and now have a look at this post and see at all those people who disagreed with the changes - Warhawks (repeatedly), Sukin,...

But gameplay wise that would be the death for BK bc everything would really look like we are playing a slow motion mod of coh. The infantry speeds cannot be brought down, there is already too many sources of damage that can kill infantry in seconds. So yeah, slowing infantry is not viable option. B...

Things were finally starting to be a bit relaxed before you post, and the heat of discussions seemed to fade away Things were getting calmer after someone escalated it, don't want to point fingers but anyone can have a look through the last three pages to see who was shouting around the most and th...

OK, I finally got home, I will try to address some of the points that were mentioned here. OK, Warhawks was first... I used the normal transport halftrack. All transport HTs have speed of 3.5 which is faster than infantry (when not sprinting) so I am not sure how it happens that HTs are slower than ...

I am still puzzled as to why some people see the new vehicle speeds as OK and some as disasterous fuck up and crime against humanity it makes me wonder if it is just the initial shock of something drastically different which will sound off after people adjust (sort of like with Churchill armor buff)...
