IIRC they were removed because it did weird stuff when they re crewed weapon teams. Especially because they would switch to all male voice lines.

PPSH isn't a 33% nerf, thats probably the most neanderthalic way to look at it, even if it's a pretty shortsighted nerf it changes the result of the pg and volks match-up and thats about it, ppsh cons on the test patch will typically lose and win vs the same units they already do if you use them properly. 33% nerf...

No one can 100% call Soviet Snipers anything until a bunch of test games have been played, I think it makes going soviet sniper impossible vs ost but thats probably the thing most likely to change

Brumbarr is not in a remotely decent place it completely needed a nerf, the nerf that it's been given wont even stop it one shot wiping squads anyway because it still has a massive AOE. The reason you don't see it in 1v1 isn't because it's bad it's because of the mechanics of 1v1, its total aids in 2v2+. Squad preservation goes out of the window when this unit exists, it's ability to frontally assault AT-guns is old crocodilesque

The 222 and PGs are pretty much only seeing play by everyone's favourite Dane, Ostheer T2 is being straight skipped in favour of T3 in most 1v1s or is only made for Paks with Puma/Ct callins or in 2v2 after t3 or as part of a t4 rush. It might be an overbuffed tech tier but you can't say that yet.

Also to all the people moaning about 222 in this thread 222 is still going to be 222, flamer ht will still be 10x better at pushing early advantages and wiping squads. 222 will still lose to AEC, still die near instantly to AA/HT, still lose to Stuart and still suffer from pios horrible repair times (good luck spamming 222s when they each need to be repaired for 10 minutes after every ptrs volley). 600/90 fuel into low damage light vehicles sounds a great idea, i'm sure the great minds in this thread would shoot up the leaderboard if that change makes it through.

The over-reactions from people over preliminary patch notes likes it's the death of COH is really something special.

Obviously a lot of the patch is bad, this is the issue when you essentialy have 2 factions of people; relic and the balance team (which is a mess of ideas in of its-self) launching ideas at a wall and seeing what sticks.

The vast majority of the changes have purpose and that people are so insulted by things like a 0.5 second overall 1.5 second nerf to the katuysha is really fucking weird even given how horrible a change it is.
