Relic has confirmed that it is related to high sound settings. Because you hadn't had it, doesn't mean it isn't related to sound settings.
have they said anything about hardware? most people have realtek, i do not. |
What happens when you play with high sound settings.
It has existed since the beginning of time.
i play with sound on high and have not gotten it in over 300 hours |
Oh and by the way guys, the 120mm damage nerf made the AOE kill radius of the 120mm just 1.1 meters, in comparison of the regural mortars , their kill radius is 1 meter.
The old kill radius of the 120mm was 1.65 meters, so i'd say it's quite a significant nerf.
Precision strike removed really is a double edged sword. On one hand, yes precision strike was really useful, on the other hand flares are going to be very useful too, because the soviet mortars fire ~5 times slower than the wehrmacht one , and the flares last for quite a long time ~45 seconds if i recall correctly, that means you are going to get alot of vision and for quite a long time too.
Keep in mind that having vision on the target increases accuracy by 20%, and the soviet mortars are already significantly more accurate than their wehrmacht counterparts. Now imagine some flares around an OKW medtruck. No escape
not to mention that any doctrine that requires los (planes, mortars, artillery, etc) are going to have a field day with this change. i'm really not sad about the loss of precision strike at all and i think that in the right hands flares will be a least as strong. it's the lower end players who will suffer from flares and i don't feel sorry for them at all. it's certainly an interesting change and this game need interesting.

The disclaimer: this was a 3v3 on Agermuende.
Yes, a team game with randoms, and yes, I know that draws bad players. Still, I argued with a team-mate about which was more viable: he stated that camping was valid as USF, since if he left his position the flank would've fallen. Hint: the flank had already fallen. I suggested that whoever makes the most progress against the enemy, in terms of territory, resources, etc..should get support from the others if possible, as it is easier to support someone who's got momentum , than bang your head against the MG, bunker, panzerschwere, etc...wall. I don't have a replay, but am I wrong in thinking that supporting a team-mate who's on a roll is the right way to go ?
if he's defending at least your natural points he's defending something. if he doesn't have all of them he's wasting time. if there's a fight going on and he's camping in his corner he's wasting time. |
Yes. Why? I have 3 games in my catalog I am not bored to death of. Those're: NTW, CoH2 and Far Cry 3. I am not about to through away good tactical play for fc3 and tw. CoH2 is the best game in my library. I love it. IDC about new "meta" I do not follow that in the first place and prefer playing with lesser doctrines like Mobile Defense.
there's a steam sale going on, eat a lot of cheap food (games) and lose the weight later. |
the new meta will be complaining about anything relic breaks, anything that wasn't fixed, and making predictions about the next patch.
here's to another couple months.

i don't see anything obviously bad in the patchnotes so i'm content until the 23rd. we'll see how things go from there. if everything is delivered as listed, and nothing extra is added in, it should be one of the few patches that doesn't fuck anything up. |
The performance of the Su-76 was not meeting our expectations.
ROFL! what were your expectations, pray tell?
seriously though, i think the su-76 may end up needing another 5 fuel tacked onto the cost; it's 15 fuel cheaper than the stug and preforms roughly the same while retaining the AI/anti-building barrage. we'll see though, might turn out fine the way it is.
as for the patch overall, i don't see any obviously bad changes in the patch so we'll see, maybe it'll turn out pretty good. it's always the ninja changes and the stuff that no one asked for that causes issues and we won't know about that until the patch actually hits.

Why does nobody ever ask me who my favorite pony is? never touch a black woman's hair and never, ever ask another man what his favorite pony is. these are basic life rules. |

speak no monkey, see no monkey, hear no monkey? or maybe they're orangutangs? |
