I am not at my PC anymore so I cannot tell you untill tomorrow. However why do you need to know the current stats? Can't you just say what your vision is? I mean, you need to have some idea of what the chances should be, something like "vs PIV at max range the penetration chance should be 60% a...

*facepalms in realising that without more details this leads nowhere and so leaning back and sipping tea while writing a reply* @Death_kitty: I would like to get more constructive here so I need to know what exactly you want, thus let me just ask this (and I specifically mean Death_kitty , so I woul...

This is how I read this post: Axis pz4 has to be better then sherman, and because axis have alternative to pz4, unlike allies, who will keep building sherman even if shit, pz4 needs to be good so that axis keeps building it...(-_-) I am not 100% sure what you meant here, though I have a feeling you...

now you ignore me Sorry, but what do you want from me? You tell me that something is "broken", I tell you what can be done or how to counter it and you immediately tell me basically "no, that doesn't work" - I doubt you've even tried. Then you say that it doesn't work because &q...

Death_Kitty wrote:Huh. Disapointed the 50cal changes didnt go through. Im really happy with these changes though.

They did, only Shermans are messed up but the rest (Jeeps, MG nest, Greyhound, Staghound, M18, Recce, Scott, M20, M21...) are there.

Reaction is ok and being problem only for newbies, other thing are HMG that cannot leave building immidietaly under any circumstances My point was to deploy the HMG somewhere near a building (not inside) where it can cover approaches. You can camouflage your HMG anywhere so you can use that. When t...

@ flamethrowers: They are made to kill all infantry inside buildings/emplacements almost imediately so it is not a "bug". The thing is that if they take longer time to kill garisoned soldiers, the flamethrowers will be useless again because all you need to do is equip soldiers with SMGs an...

I said "polite" which means "express with a good manners" which in most cultures around the world means "without swearing". Nobody said a word about "educated way" (whatever that means). Also "truth" should be based on objective facts but what you pr...

If you don't like some changes you can always say it in a polite way, preferably using constructive criticism (so saying why you don't like it and what in your opinion would have been better solution/approach). In case you don't know how to do that nobody is holding you here, you can leave any time.

The effectiveness of flamethrowers against vehicles and tanks has not been changed, so they are not more or less effective against them than they used to be in previous versions. On the other hand the tanks now have at least somewhat functional hull and coaxial MGs - they still suck against infantry...

Is it intented so AT rifle grenade now higher range than a normal grenade? Seems to be a much higher range now, lol. It was one of the changes of the first beta: - Riflegrenade upgrade is no longer mutually exlusive with other Riflemen weapon upgrades - Increased the range of HEAT riflegrenade to 6...

@Mortar prices: As it is mentioned now, I remember that it was part of the original idea to drop the ammo price on the mortar units. I forgot that and so it was not implemented but I have no problem with that and I believe that rest of the team won't have either so I guess that can go, we'll see abo...

You can still use the mortars to fire a smoke barrage on such emplacement and then decrew it with infantry with a grenade or if you manage to save resources, you can buy the flamethrower and it (with the new changes) will very likely decrew the emplacement as soon as the flame touches it. Yes, it is...

Yeah, I agreed there but back then the situation was different - the mortar change was introduced to limit the mindless usage of mortars everywhere, now people ask for more ammo income to (from a large part) negate the change, so in the end the impact of the change will be almost non-existent. You c...

Also, a small thing I noticed when checking corsix is that the Stuh doesn't have accuracy penalties when firing through smoke(while the vehicles like Scott do). I think the same thing applies for the stupa; that is if I'm looking at the right value(stuh43_150mm_stup_iv). It is possible that some un...

If you are talking about testing artillery changes from first patch, only thing that stood out for me is that hotchkiss shoots its rockets too fast for its low cost barrage. I would make the rockets shoot a bit slower so it isn't blowing up vehicles/wiping squads in a single strike with no time to ...

Lot of these things are based on Warhawk's walls of text. Though it is not like "buff the Hull and Coaxial MGs" has been some new, never heard of, idea in the mod. The extra damage on AP abilities was something inconsistent as hell because some shots added different ammount of damage, some...

Hi, we're bringing another beta version to you. Since there was not enough feedback on the first one we decided to keep it in beta branch for a bit longer and add to it some other changes, hopefully the newer beta will bring more interesting things to try and people will test it a bit more. If not t...

So they dropped with an ammo box which gave to the player the number of ammo which covered the price of a weapon upgrade? I've never played that mod so I don't know how the rest worked but in BK this would be "abuseable" - you have an excess of MP but only like 100 ammo and you spot a SP. ...

Guys, it makes no sense to argue about it - it is not possible to make it that way. Soldiers need to be dropped with guns, and there is no way to make them "get 6x FG42 when they get near their weapon drop". It would mean that the FG42 would need to be picked in the same way as the current...

They shouldn't, that's why it is set in the files to be about 4 seconds, not 2. Can you upload the replay so that I can have a look?

Basic reload speed is between 6,5 and 7,5 seconds, each veterancy level lowers it by x0,9 so with Vet level 4, the average reload time is 4.59 seconds. So the reload time went up in one of the previous patches (used to be 6 seconds) and the reload time reduction was there even before the arty change...

when will version 5.1.6 come out? Soon, I guess. not applied to the priest. or the scatter is always the same at any range. (bug?) It is there but it is less noticeable than for other units. E.g. for cromwells the yellow circle starts at "8" at shortest range and goes to "25" at...

I don't see overrepresentation of equipment being applicable to this game. Company of Heroes was designed to represent company/battalion level operations in the most interesting battles. Battles such as Market Garden pitting the XXX Corps against the II SS Panzer Corps and the 3rd Armored division ...
