What are you talking about?

• Side armor doesn't exist in the game, but you knew that.
  
• SHould the medium tanks be punished from an inability to even pen the rear armor when attacking a flank?
  
• The pen values of the mediums were left unchanged, so how do they affect the front armor any differently? If those values are changed, then a whole can of worms regarding balance is opened.
  
  

Maybe the viability of t-34s will require players to build a medium tank or td in response instead of waiting for a KT/Tiger. In that sense, the use of heavies may see a decline. Otherwise, straight up, I don't see how the relationship changes that much If a player pulls off a successful flank, they should be rewarded, not see their tanks unable to pen even the REAR armor of the heavy tank. Then again, we should try playing miragefla's mod or wait for the preview balance mod to decide.

Such as balance supervision and design? Community created content are great, some modders go out of their way to fix iportant issues which have been ignored by the devs, to implement the changes and designs desired by the community, etc.


But that is about it. Game design requires helluva expertise and years of experinece otherwise you mess it up so bad that no one could fix it. The new trend which has been followed by relic is quite worrying, first starting the Preview mod, then 'Listening' to 'pros' and finally firing their enthusiastic balance dude and looking through the community created content for inspiration, instead of investing a little money and fixing trivial issues!


Your thoughts?

Might be ok balance wise, but horrible for the flavour. I don't think anyone would play CoH if factions were just reskins of the same core units.
