Having tested it at 10 fuel awhile back at 0cp, it's definitely not a good idea as you end up with a situation where you can effectively fight it in the first few minutes. If it goes down it price it should go up in CP and be given abilities to allow it to scale into the mid-late game. Or it takes longer to call more trucks in.
Maybe OKW can deal with it as they have raketens, but Ostheer trying to deal with 2 dodge trucks with a rifle riding onboard on the cut-off in the first minute or so of the game that can shuffle in and out for repairs is very difficult to deal with and this is the time when your 3rd Grenadier squad arrives and you may only have the munitions for one faust.
I feel like a 1cp 15 fuel WC-51 with changes to its pathfinding (possibly acceleration) wouldn't be bad. I could definitely see it shutting down OKW but with the pfaus change it might be mitigated.

Hi friends,
The wc-51 truck has been a unit long gone since its changes to units inside the jeep. This unit has long suffered with poor acceleration, pathfinding, HP/Armor, and even pricing. The 0cp car is 20 fuel delaying your tech significantly even if you can manage to keep it alive long enough for 'refit' ability.
Is it possible we could buff this unit slightly?
EDIT: goofed the poll, lol. Rip |

The vehicle unit size (the circle around the tank) is to large. The fix was made to change tanks from getting stuck on one another like a year ago. The change has since then caused tanks to have awkward pathfinding as they simply cant fit through due to the increase in size. Also the change in the reverse makes this change (from a year ago) even more prominent it cant find an easy way to reverse out. |
The kv1 is a lot worst, it can only wish to be as rubbish as the churchill.
That whole commander is rubbish after the triple nerfs it got. |

I dont think the main gun needs a buff. The armor of the Churchill should come up and its health should come down. Swapping those around keeps the churchill from feeding LOADS of vet as it does now, while still being the support tank for fireflys. Another issue that is being addressed (but isnt touch the armor/hp issue) is the cost. In the current meta, the churchill is simply to expensive for how it preforms and for how long it takes to repair.
As such the tank should take less of a meatshield role and more of a "shoot at this cuz it can sometimes do damage and is good vs infantry" with all of its armor. It would promote flanking the slow tank and could be easy to flank and have low rear armor to combo it. |

I feel like the ez8 should have heavy crush lol |

There are many options to fix this issue rather than eleminating the element completely. Changes to unit spacing, AI pathfinding, and if need be rotation rates. We need to be carefule as this units are getting an indirect nerf to their ai, nor have we rly seen how helpful the pfaust is in live version.
We should look at smaller options rather than "Relic dropping a carnival cruise ship on a nail".
The Cromwell needs changed yes, the m10 needs changed, but look at how many other units get indirect nerfs based on this.
I know people don't always like this mechanica but it's a strategic decision a player is making and with the added snares should be taken into consideration as we lose strategic diversity.
I urge you to reconsider and think of alternatives rather than a 'blanket' solution |
|
There are for sure better ways to address the issues with crush. Changing max speed alone is a starter as I'm almost positive this is driven by the Cromwell.
Changes to infantry spacing, turn radius, even having a toggle for the main gun to run over inf could be an option. The addition of of a Snare on OKW means you cant just run through the blob and not get stuck, its going to happen. |
|
I still stand by the fact that 2v2 onward needs reduced incomes and should scale by # of players.
Halfing the pop would limit strats but if you reduced the income by 1/3 I feel like you would get extended early and mid battles such as the ones you see in 1v1s
FRP wouldn't be as potent as you simply wouldn't have the resources to blob so heavily. |
