This topic is actually nothing but a sequel to that topic called "What is missing? 4950!" for the upcoming patch which was in fact a similar topic to the one named "Inspiring for perfection!" of the current version release... However that this time it's not supposed to be any kind of a huge topic once again unlike the previous ones as that most of the points down here had been probably discussed several times already before; So this topic is mainly created just to clearly put it all out on the straight line where it directly has to be.
And why me is often the one who takes on this task of creating such topics?
Well, since the topic "Clear demands!" of 486... I felt no one else could do so much effort collecting all the different points that are suggested by players then investing the time too for typing these kind of comprehensive threads.
That's why I demand from the users here not to try stretching it out anyhow nor to spam their own ideas over and over while attempting to force a certain viewpoint as that everyone should just shortly tell his own opinion and not to necessarily comment on others mind.
MORE STRICTLY HERE; ANY PERSONAL OFF-TOPIC STUFF OR VULGAR SPEECH WON'T BE TOLERATED OF COURSE.
Admins will be tracking this topic very carefully from the very begining...
I will be including some topic references so I wish if everyone would be satisfied after all
I will be also forming a new reviewing system.. as that the old one of scaling each point to its self priority strength is no longer taken into consideration here. The points will be divided onto 'parts' where every single point is somewhat firmly related to the other ones through the same part which belongs to it!
The next patch _ as far as I guess _ can be probably called v5.00 if new maps were added being a full installer as well.
SO... Let's begin:-
#PART 1
1) improved squads AI behaviour when ordered to attack. (Confirmed by Panzerblitz1)
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=786
2) M5 Stuart firepower generally buffed. (intention by Wolf)
-Reference; He decided that during a 1vs1 testing match with him right after the release of 493.
3) Generally reworked mines. (intention by MarKr)
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=873
4) Croc Churchill should no longer have 'ignite engine' ability. (Confirmed by Wolf as MarKr once said it)
5) JP Veteran Shot ability range to be increased to 90 and for the price to be reduced from 100 to 70 ammo. (Same as point number 4)
-Plz keep in mind that this ability already requires Vet lvl 3!
6) Snipers can no longer be transported by any means.
OR
To significantly receive accuracy reduction when transported specifically while on the move. (Confirmed with a poll created by MarKr)
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=809
7) Dingo can hide when in cover, having the toggle hold fire ability then! (Confirmed by MarKr)
8) AB 101st squads to receive an RL upgrade instead of Thompsons probably for 40 ammo; therefore the RL values would be tuned back. (Confirmed by MarKr too)
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=825
9) Axis flak 20mm Quads are under-performing against HTs including the Wirbelwind btw. (Confirmed by MarKr as well)
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=870
10) BeuteShermans are still over-performing against Churchills. (Confirmed also by MarKr)
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=867
11) ALRS ability for both Tiger and KT tanks to be fixed.
-Hold Position ability to be hopefully fixed too. (Already done I assume)
#PART 2
1) SP, Elephant, JT or any other call in tanks should no longer come up with tank commanders inside them.. also without price reductions at all as a result... Excepting both ACEs for sure!
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=27&t=902
2) Both the 76 BeuteSherman as well as the RE doc Canadian 76 Shermans are all actually missing the suppression ability.
-Same with Panther A and G btw!
3) Tiger Ace call in should no longer provide a Storm squad with it, being 200 MP cheaper.
4) SE doc Nashorn to receive the same basic price reduction of the TH doc one on 486...
PE Pz4s F2 to receive the same cost reduction of the WH one on 486 too.
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=843
5) SE doc BeuteShermans call in should no longer provide a 76 Sherman but only the Firefly.. once unlocked, the 76 one should be normally deployed from the factory just like the Pz4... But definitely for the basic price of a regular US 76 Sherman! Being limited to a single one at a time as it is.
6) Jumbo to be swapped with the Calliope, each becoming cheaper as well... 750 MP for the Jumbo.. and 650 for Calli.
#PART 3
1) Becoming just like the Storms.. both the CBQs and the Sabotage squads should no longer be capable of spawning at any buildings or other trenches that are out of the player's view!
2) AB spotters should be able to crawl.
-Demo Storm squad should be able to do so also by default.
3) Volks MP40 upgrade currently equipes only 2 ones for 50 ammo if the LMG 34 was upgraded first! It has to be half cheaper being only 25 ammo then.
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=5&t=746
4) 50 MP cheaper SAS and Reg 5.
5) PE HauptOfficer squad should recieve 'Heroic charge' boosting aura ability at Vet lvl 2.
6) WH Officer single MP40 upgrade price to be decreased from currently 25 ammo to 15 ammo.
His off map mortar barrage price from 100 to 75 ammo!
-Leader Storm squad off map mortar barrage price from 85 to 75 as well.
NOTE:- plz keep in mind that the same off-map AB mortar barrage costs only 60 ammo!!
7) Luft Pioneers to lose their default single MP44 and the MP40s upgrade too.. becoming 100 MP less expensive on the other hand.
-This would also fix a minor sound bug btw.
#PART 4
1) US 37mm AT gun crews are still too tough to die somehow.
2) AB strafing run should no longer re-charge once again after upgrading the AP rounds from the WSC.
3) PE mortar HT to receive a smoke barrage.
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=15&t=894
4) ALL tank traps to receive some less HP becoming cheaper from 25 MP to 15 MP only per each.
-Both SE doc and RE doc roadblocks are for free currently btw!
5) HMG 42s are under-performing against Jeeps.
#PART 5
Topic references;
1- viewtopic.php?f=15&t=905
2- viewtopic.php?f=15&t=874
3- viewtopic.php?f=15&t=884
1) Sherman 105 price from 650MP/80F to 500/60.
2) Maultier barrage price from 85 to 75 ammo.
3) Priest normal barrage price from 50 ammo to 75, creeping barrage from 150 to 200 ammo.. overwatch from 25 to 50 ammo... Aimed salvo from 50 ammo to 100.
4) RA doc 75mm HT barrage price from 25 to 50 ammo.
-25P normal barrage price from 35 to 50 ammo, aimed salvo from 35 to 75 ammo.. overwatch from 25 to 50 ammo too!
5) 88s barrage price from 35 to 50 ammo.. then to be added to Luft ones.
-Emplaced 88 cost from 550MP/75F to 500/60. Naked ones price remain untouched!
NOTE:- for now only the naked 88 from Def doc has DF ability.. and it has even got the delay bug.
6) Both the US 76mm and the WH 75mm AT gun emplacements price from 300MP/20F to 360/25.
-17P emplacement price to be increased by 10 fuel... Means that the new price would be 360MP/35F instead of only 25F currently.
-After reduction from RE doc it would become 340MP/25F instead of currently just 320/20 after the reduction.
7) WH ammo HT should be able to deploy Galoith, US GMC ammo transporter should also collect or deliver the shell upgrades to any tanks that are away from the tank depot.
8) Inf doc 105 off map arty barrage price from 150 to 185 ammo.. Terror doc Firestorm price from 200 to 175 ammo!
#PART 6
1) ALL Pz.IV.Es should have top turret mounted MGs.. and MG gunner upgrade for 40 ammo plus the suppression ability also for 40 ammo of course.
2) Ostwind should gain veterancy levels faster. And to no longer require more 50 ammo in order to switch back to regular AP rounds!
-Same to be done to the Wirbelwind.
3) Reward KT price from 1200MP/200F to 1000MP/200F.
Default KT price from 1400MP/210F to 1000 MP/210F.
Also... ALRS ability to be swapped with the Sniper Mode ability becoming available at Vet lvl 2 while the Sniper Mode would be then delayed to Vet lvl 3.
-Topic reference; viewtopic.php?f=16&t=930 (Check the many complaints regarding the KT through this topic, there are also a lot other topics considering this matter.. but this one is maybe clear enough)
4) ALL Tigers:-
-Flank speed ability to be totally removed.
-ALRS to be 1 step earlier available being moved from Vet lvl 2 to Vet lvl 1, including the Ace Tiger for sure!
5) ALL Panthers to receive the flank speed ability but only at Vet lvl 2 and noway by default for balance reasons!
6) Pershings (including the Ace) to have the RF ability 1 step earlier being moved from Vet lvl 2 to Vet lvl 1.
7) M10 and Achilles should no longer have the so called 'hit and run tactics' ability. As they should have the stunning ability instead!
NOTE:- Achilles missing hold fire toggle ability, and the DF of it has delay bug btw.
8) Hellcat and Chaffe should have flank speeds.
-Both the M10 and the Achilles already have it by default.. even the Slugger has it but only after the engine upgrade, so why not also for the Hellcat and the Chaffe??!!
#PART 7
1) 200 Popcap mode if possible.. maybe just convert the current 150 or the 250 Popcap ones.
2) Inf Only mode should allow the Luft doc to deploy mortar HTs, naked 88s and call in air strikes.
3) Droppable GREASE gun from Riflemen squads if ever possible.
Finally... Few other tiny bugs to be hopefully passed over, MarKr is perhaps aware about all of them.. however that I will keep on contacting him privately about these anyways.
Sincerely, Tiger1996 ^^
