I hadn't considered this idea. It is intriguing. However, the one issue I see is that unlike every other offensive squad, vehicle crews receive very little in the way of combat bonuses from veterancy. Literally, the only thing they get is -29% received accuracy at vet 3. That's making the investment in their thompsons a very risky one.

Interesting thing I've noticed tonight. Whenever my housemate is on the mission selection map screen in Ardennes Assault, my CS:GO game starts lagging out like crazy. Ping goes up and I start rubber banding all over the place until he starts a mission.

Anyone know of any reason that screen would even be using an Internet connection?

Spam. No COH2 stuff, let alone casts.

Nice work. A couple of thoughts:

Your concerns about USF facing off against the stronger Ost sniper might be overstated considering almost every USF player has the incredible M20 armoured car out at about the 5 minute mark, usually before Ost has any hard counters from t2, unless they plant a great teller mine. Still, I'll be interested to see how they play out.

I'm very interested in that nugget about manning the MG42 with pios. We might even see some players deliberately kill the main crew to do so. Do you know if the MG42 increased accuracy translates into better suppression? I feel like that was the main issue at hand with rifles and conscripts easily getting within grenade range, even when blobbed (particularly thanks to suppression taking a couple of seconds to make infantry actually crawl these days). Although, better sightlines from pios will definitely help. A cool decision by Relic, given that pios can only effectively engage at close range.

Pretty pumped to see the raketenwerfer finally become a possibly viable alternative to schreks. It just had ridiculous target acquisition times against fast and light vehicles given that it intuitively should have been their hard counter.

These veteran players take full advantage of clear sightlines against each other on Crossing in the Woods and show that unconventional unit choices can really pay off.

Inb4 new patch kills off last lot of replays. FYI, I'm loving the new patch notes and am keen to check out game under the new environment.
