seriously, what's the point in getting the jagtiger now? it's so weak and unreliable there is no gain in getting one anymore.

I agree with most of the balance changes but this time not. with this change there is one strategical option less an strategical diversity got flattened.

80% of the shots missing is completely over-exaggerated, it was just unlucky RNG.

The acceleration- and mobility nerfs were more than deserved, you remember the old vet 2 JT with the upgrade? It was hilarious how that thing was able to escape flanking attacks on its own. (Lets not talk about vet 4 JT aka 70 tons Ferrari, lol)

The damage nerf was perfect imo, it got decreased from 320 to 300 only, means it still deals a lot damage vs tanks but doesnt 1- or 2- shot 95% of the allies tanks anymore without any support which -let's be honest- was really unfair and stupid for a tank that has such a long weapon range.

There is a reason why the old allies meta in the bigger team modes was basically just arty spam in order to erase the axis infantry --> win by map control and VPs, instead of mass-producing tanks and trying to flank the heavy tanks (cos that was kinda impossible* vs decent players and on certain maps; or required cheesy off-map strike spam which got nerfed in last patch)

*Usually, a JT is protected by tanks, AT guns, scouting units, snares and a lot of mines (from your teammate(s))

I think getting multiple Panthers or JP4s is better than getting JT now, but I also think JT is still necessary if the allies reach a critical amount of their lethal TDs (Firefly, Jackson, SU 85)

Map: Stadtschutt

Insanely close down to the wire 2v2 with 2 opponents that did not want to surrender. It seemed like the strategy of the USF player will become the new meta in teamgames

I was trying a new "no voksgren strat" with the revamped Luftwaffe Ground Forces Doctrine: Your early game is basically just double sturmpio that constantly spam mines, a kubel, a raketen, a HMG34 and a rushed flak HT.

As soon as you unlocked Fallschirmjaegers, you get 2-3 of them and break through the lines by constantly using Valiant assault. (the rest of your army is pushing as well ofc)

No muni needs to be spent on weapon upgrades(no volks, Falls land with FG42), so you have very much mun to spam early mines and can float mun at the same time for valiant assaults

What I noticed as well:

- OKW flak HT with buffed set-up time is 10x better than luchs now as long as you stay on max range, in teamgames at least (vet 0 smoke, on the field after 4-5 minutes, insta supresses units behind green cover, wipe machine vs clumped squads)

- Nerfed KT is still very viable and able to one-shot squads

- New Jacksons are insane, but on same level like JP4 imo

- Fallschirmjaegers with Valiant Assault = Kreygasm

All players in this match were randoms, no arranged teams

double OKW no longer working ?

It had both a sound and also an event, so you could press spacebar and dodge it.

Yeah with the "small" difference that all the (Panzerelite) booby traps were available for FREE

FRP was activated, however any re-captured or stolen support weapons did not suffer from the +75% time to reinforce penalty

Maybe it is unit specific, so here the short details:

I played OKW and the bug occured on a re-captured HMG34, a re-captured raketen and a stolen M1 USF mortar
