My suggestion as an adhoc fix until more granular adjustments can be made with a commander patch:

- Radio Silence: Make units reappear as soon as they are in combat (similar like VonAsten suggested), units have normal speed at this point, raise munition cost from 40 to 50

The OKW SpecOps commander is full of abilites that require 1-2 clicks to perform with a lot of impact and zero counter play possibility. This commander is/will be the dominating OKW commander in 1v1 and team games.

- Radio Silence is way too good in my opinion. It completely disturbs tacmap based players with all units disappearing from the map. On top of that there is a speed increase on all units, which is unnecessary. You get the whole thing for 40 munitions, which is far too effective for its cost. While it is an unique idea, it is the only ability in the game which heavily affects how certain player play the game, rendering the tac map useless.

- Infiltration Nades. They are basically the assault grenadier grenades but on all your mainline infantry. They cost only 20 Munitions and and the whole idea is a leftover from the times where OKW had a lower income than other factions. It never got adjusted since.

- Spec Ops flares have been brought up before. They cost 60 munitions and are the best recon you have in the game. While loiter recon can be countered by AA there is no counterplay here.

The easiest way would be to increase the cost of these abilites, but it won't change the fundamental issue at core where there is no legit way to counter them. For example Radio intercepts gives you a brief window of opportunity to prepare for an incoming unit, but it doesn't fiddle with they way the other player plays the game. This is done right in my opinion.

While the current patch tackles core army issue, I think this is worth addressing.

The whole Mobilize Reserves ability has been butchered so many times over and the descriptions doens't really help anymore that I don't know what it stands for now.

Also I find the -10% accuracy nerf at vet3 quite drastic.

Little Update how it looks like playing without the VPN for me:

also other people having the same problem ping-battleservers

Someone from Relic has to explain how the connection to the battle servers work. Do all people from central europe connect to the same local servers or are there differences?

Why is my connection faster by a factor of four when I enrypt my traffic to a random server in italy and go from there to the relic severs and then go the same way back compared to my regular connection straight to the servers. Either it has to do with the different servers or something happens on the way. It's hard to imagine infrastructure issues on the backbone since everything else works just fine in other games in the day and age.

I can understand why you would use a vpn to bypass a region block or something, but I don't wanna use it to play a video game. It fucks up other applications or streaming aswell. On top of that you have to pay for a proper one.

Wouldn't it be possible to run a traceroute and identify the hop that delays the packets? Do we have the public IP of these servers?
