Features:
 
Performance Improvements

  • Several optimizations were made that improve the game’s frame rate.
  • Entity extensions that have expensive updates now run in parallel on multiple processor cores.
  • Optimized weapon targeting update.
  • Optimized PropertyBagGroup lookups by pre-caching them to allow for constant time lookup.
  • Replaced temporary data structures using heap allocators with stack allocators.
  • Optimized path finding algorithms.
  • Optimized AI combat evaluations and AI Info updates for AI Opponent and made them run in parallel


Balance Items – Complete with Knife Juggling!
 
MP Units and Abilities

These changes seek to refine the recent modifications to both the ISU-152 and Jagdtiger. We decided to switch the Jagdtiger's Piercing Shot ability from a manual target to an automated timed ability to improve the overall usability of the action. We also modified the functionality of the 12.8cm Supporting Fire ability such that it functions more akin to a barrage. We felt its previous functionality was not very practical and overlapped heavily with its new Piercing Shot ability. This will diversify the Jagdtiger’s capabilities by allowing it to counter softer targets. Aside from a cost adjustment on the G-530 Concrete Piercing rounds and a few minor bug fixes, the ISU-152 has not seen many changes since the implementation of the ammo toggle. Below is a complete list of balance changes which have gone in since the Ardennes Assault update.
 
Jagdtiger

  • Added a timed action ability which enables piercing on the main guns projectile for a 30 second duration.
  • Increased the projectile speed of the 28.3 kg APCBC-HE shell from 100 to 400.
  • 12.8cm Supporting Fire changed to function as a barrage ability. The limited vertical traverse of the main gun does limit the weapons capacity to shoot over larger world objects such as buildings.
  • Range from 85 to 125
  • Minimum range set to 25
  • Cost from 30 to 40 munitions


ISU-152

  • Added a toggle ability which enables the ISU-152 to switch between high explosive and armor piercing rounds.

  • Decreased the near AOE distance of the high explosive shell from 1.5 to 1.25
  • Decreased the mid AOE distance of the high explosive shell from 3 to 2.75
  • Decreased the penetration of the high explosive shell from 260-200 to 90-30
  • Removed ability that allows ISU to transform into
  • Decreased the deflection damage of the high explosive shell from 80 to 40 damage
  • Increased accuracy on the armor piercing shell from 0.025/0.0375/0.05 to 0.03/0.0425/0.055
  • Decreased the AOE radius of the armor piercing shell from 6 to 1.5
  • Decreased the near, mid, and far AOE distance of the armor piercing shell from 4.5, 3, 1.5 to 1.125, 0.75, 0.375
  • Penetration remains unchanged at 260-200

Version : 3.0.0.17580

Please note that these changes will go live TOMORROW, at 3pm PDT. Our servers will be down for a full hour to facilitate this update. We’re trying something new in releasing the notes a day early, so we’ll see how this goes! Our latest update focuses on several areas, with special attention paid towards:

Maps
Balance
Bug fixes


Grab yourself a cup of hot cocoa, a swig of whiskey or another random beverage of your choice and settle in for some ever so exciting patch note reading!

MAPS

The following NEW Relic Maps have been added to Automatch and Custom games:

  • (6-8) General Mud
  • (2) Angoville (previously a COH1 map, now with COH2 freshness!)

The following Community Maps have been added to Custom games and Automatch as part of the Community Map Spotlight Series. Congratulations to the talented map makers that have had their work included in the game!

  • (6 - 8) Sittard Summer by MonolithicBacon
  • (4 - 6) Wolfs Lair by Chuck Norris
  • (2 – 4) Bystraya Voda by Qvazar
  • (6) Pavlov’s House by Nebaka
  • (2 - 4) Einhoven Country by Spanky

The following maps have been refined based on community and internal feedback.

  • (6-8) Hill 331
  • (2-4) Minsk Pocket
  • (2-4) Moscow Outskirts
  • (2-4) Semoskiy Winter
  • (2-4) Semoskiy
  • (2) La Gleize

The following maps have been removed from the Automatch list based off community and internal feedback.

  • Faceoff at Rostov
  • Hurtgen Forest
  • Semoskiy (from 2v2 only)

Shallow water no longer offers a speed reduction penalty.

  • This has been removed to increase ebb and flow around areas which feature shallow water.

______________________
______________________

BALANCE

For this update, we approached balance with three main goals in mind:

To reduce the disparity of army balance between axis and allies

  • We have aimed to create a more evenly measured match where Axis and Allies have equal advantages from start to finish
  • Reduce the temporal effect that we were seeing in data, where allies have an early advantage at a higher VP count
  • Bring OKW ELO in line with other factions

To reduce the effectiveness of blobbing we’re looking to

  • improve the already existing blob counters, in non-lethal ways
  • promote and encourage ‘combined arms’

To reduce the negative user experiences in gameplay we’re working to:

Reduce the amount of frustrating moments that can be caused by undesirable gameplay, including:

  • Truck Pushing
  • Bugs

Reduce moments that go against our fundamental design of unit preservation in the game, including:

  • Squad wiping abilities
  • One-shots
  • High lethality

Reduce the number of scenarios where players are not rewarded for their tactical play.

______________________

OKW

SWS Truck

We’ve seen ongoing complaints that the OKW SWS truck provides an unfair advantage to some players. We had our stats team pull in-game numbers related to this, in order to assess the situation and determine actual game impact. Not only can the SWS truck push units out of points and into unfavorable positions, it can also scout for the player with no real penalty. By reducing the speed, we have made it much more difficult to push around infantry.

  • Max speed has been reduced from 4.2 to 3.2
  • Armor has been reduced from 4 to 3
  • Wreck armor has been reduced from 25 to 4
  • SWS Wreck can now be killed by small arms fire

Flak Base Defenses

Another common concern we’ve seen is that OKW’s default AA is unfairly advantageous when compared to all other factions that are required to spend resources to build AA.

  • OKW base Flak Gun chance to shoot down aircraft has been reduced to 0.5%

Volksgrenadiers

The received accuracy bonus the Volksgrenadiers gained at Veterancy level 5 made them extremely durable. Durability was not one of the intended roles of the squad so adjustments were made.

  • Removed 0.71 received accuracy at veterancy level 5
  • Added 0.7 cooldown and reload at veterancy level 5

Panzerschreck

To help facilitate our goals of anti-blobbing, we have decided to reduce the effectiveness of Panzerschreck at long range. It was previously quite easy to move a shreck blob into position and snipe vehicles. The reduction in accuracy at greater distances will ensure that in order to be effective, OKW players will need to commit further into enemy lines.

  • Far Accuracy has been reduced from .025 to 0.20

Obersoldaten

In examining blobbing and the current Meta, we discovered that the OKW Blob effectiveness was in large part due to the Obersoldaten. Their high DPS nullifies any infantry threat to the Volksgrenadiers. In combination with the Volks’ previous Vet 5 durability bonus, the Obers made the perfect meat shield. We feel by delaying the LMG with an upgrade, this should give players sufficient time to respond. The reduction in damage on the MG34 LMG was necessary, as it was killing units at such a fast rate it was far too difficult for other players to react.

  • LMG MG34 moved to an upgrade and is an exclusive upgrade (can only purchase LMG or STG)
  • LMG MG34 upgrade now costs 60 munitions
  • LMG MG34 damage has been reduced from 8 to 6
  • STG 44 damage has been reduced from 8 to 6

Raketenwerfer

These changes will help improve the responsiveness of the Raketenwefer, better allowing it to engage fast moving targets. The reload time has been partially increased relative to the amount of time reduced on aim time; however, the unit’s overall performance will be slightly higher.

  • Ready aim time (time required to aim on the first shot fired) has been reduced from 1 - 1.5 seconds to 0.25 – 0.375 seconds
  • Fire aim time (time taken to aim on subsequent shots) has been reduced from 1 – 1.25 to 0.125 – 0.25 seconds
  • Reload time has been increased from 3 – 3.6 seconds to 3.8 – 4.3 seconds

LE IG 18 Infantry Support Gun

The suppression on AOE will also help to improve its effectiveness against blobbing in a non-lethal way.

  • Added mild AOE suppression on hit

King Tiger

Allied late game had an exceptionally difficult time penetrating the frontal armor of the KT, which caused a significant amount of frustration for our players. Telemetry Data we pulled supported the need for change in this area, as it frequently and unfairly prevented any realistic allied comeback. By reducing the armor (to the same value as the IS2) it should make the King Tiger a little bit easier to damage. Its offensive power still remains deadly as always.

  • Armor reduced from 425 to 375

______________________

USF

M10 Wolverine

The M10 Wolverine is a capable tank destroyer, but too fragile in its current state given that it requires players to get ‘up close and personal’ in order for it to be effective. With an increase in health, the M10 will now be able to withstand one extra shot of direct tank fire.

  • Health has been increased from 400 to 560

M36 Jackson

The Jackson had issues dealing damage consistently due to its lower penetration. Our team has chosen to reduce the damage dealt by the M36 while also increasing the penetration; two changes we feel will offset each other in an ideal way. This will allow for the Jackson to retain its current role while also being a more consistent tank destroyer. This is an indirect buff to Wehrmacht Tier 3, in which every tank was hard countered by the Jackson in its current form.

  • Damage reduced from 240 to 200
  • Penetration increased from 160 / 180 / 200 to 200 / 220 /240
  • AP rounds penetration increased from 220 / 250 / 280 to 240 / 270 / 300

M8 Greyhound Canister Shot

We had found that the M8 previously had the ability and tendency to one shot kill a lot of squads with no way to counter it. By increasing the damage but removing its death critical on hit, we are aiming to give a more dispersed damage among clips of units without instantly killing squads. We have also made some adjustments to the default gun in order to compensate for the reduced effectiveness of critical hits. The Greyhound’s gun should now have similar stats to that of the Stuart.

  • Canister shot damage has been increased from 40 to 80
  • Canister shot radius has been increased from 3 to 5
  • Canister shot now pierces
  • Squad death critical on hit has been removed
  • Damage has been increased from 40 to 60
  • Penetration has increased from 35 / 45 / 55 to 40 / 45 / 60
  • Distant scatter max has been increased from 35 / 45 / 55 to 40 / 45 / 60
  • Reload has been reduced from 4.5 / 4.4 to 2.9
  • Radius has been reduced from 2.5 to 1.75
  • Call-in recharge time has been increased from 45 seconds to 90 seconds

USF Mortar Halftrack

Through research, we’ve found that the USF Mortar Halftrack has been one of the most lackluster mortar’s in the game, aside from its White Phosphorus ability. The most inefficient mortar in the game should now be in line with its other Mortar Halftrack counterpart.

  • Angle Scatter has been reduced from 10 to 6
  • Distance scatter max has been reduced from 12 to 5
  • Mid-damage has been increased from 0.15 to 0.35

Pak Howitzer

The suppression on AOE will help the Pak Howitzer’s effectiveness against blobbing in a non-lethal way.

  • Added mild AOE suppression on hit

HMC

The HMC is a great unit but we have found that its squad wiping ability was consistently too high, wiping full squads with its first shot. With this change in damage AOE, you will see damage better dispersed throughout the squad without killing it outright.

  • Distance Far increased from 3 to 4
  • Distance Mid increased from 2 to 2.5
  • Damage reduced from 120 to 100

______________________

SOVIETS

Sniper

With our goal to reduce and remove negative gameplay; the Soviet Snipers sprint ability has come up frequently in conversations. If the enemy has set up a flank designed to eliminate the sniper, soviet players were able to use the sprint ability to quickly get away at any time. This ability simply granted too much utility to the sniper.

  • Sprint removed from Veterancy 1 abilities
  • Flares are now granted at Veterancy 1

B4

There were two main issues with the B4 that we wanted to resolve. First, the fact that the B4 significantly hampered unit preservation, and second that the B4 has been over-performing in relation to the other howitzers available to our players. The additional damage dealt at Veterancy level 3 and the potential to combine the damage bonus from ‘For Mother Russia’ made this unit extremely lethal.

  • Direct fire now pierces through terrain (to improve usability – still requires clear line of sight)
  • Direct fire range has been reduced from 150 to 100
  • Direct fire cost has been reduced from 180 munitions to 90 munitions
  • Direct fire now requires Veterancy level 1
  • Removed precision strike
  • Veterancy level 3 has had the 1.5x damage bonus removed
  • Veterancy level 3 now increases ability range by 33% on barrage and direct fire

For Mother Russia

The previous modifiers resulted in unintended consequences such as a B4 having the capability to take out a Tiger tank in one shot. The modifiers have been adjusted accordingly to better align with our gameplay systems.

  • 1.5x damage bonus converted to 1.25 weapon accuracy

Guard Troops

Our team determined that as one of the worst rifles/AT in the game, changes to the PTRS were necessary in order to make it a bit more sufficient at its role. Its damage profile remains the same, so damage will still be relative to current values.

  • PTRS Accuracy increased from 0.03 / 0.0425 / 0.055 to 0.22 / 0.50 / 0.60

120mm Mortar

The 120 is a great unit, however its combination of accuracy and AOE damage profile meant it regularly wiped full squads with its first shot. With this change in damage AOE, players will see damage dispersed throughout the squad without killing the squad outright.

  • Damage distance (medium) increased from 3 to 3.5
  • Damage distance (near) reduced from 1.5 to 1.1

______________________

WEHRMACHT

Pioneers

Our aim is to encourage positional play and combined arms, which the Wehrmacht faction tends to reply on more than any other faction. With an increase in sight (albeit still lower than pathfinders) we are allowing Pioneers to help spot for their HMGs and other support teams.

  • Sight increased from 35 to 42

Panzerschreck

  • Far Accuracy reduced from 0.25 to 0.20

Sniper

In analyzing statistical data, we discovered that the German sniper had one of the shortest average lifespans compared to its soviet counterpart. By increasing its health, we are compensating for a lack of other squad members that the Soviet sniper team.

  • Health increased from 48 to 82

SdKfz 222 Armored Car

Our aim here is to provide the Armored Car with an increased level of durability so that it may act as a better deterrent against light vehicles.

  • Health increased from 200 to 240

HMG 42

We’ve found that the MG42 has been slightly underperforming in the damage department. These changes are meant to improve its performance and thereby better align it with the other HMG teams.

  • Near Accuracy has been increased from 0.68 to 0.7
  • Mid Accuracy has been increased from 0.41 to 0.45
  • Far Accuracy has been increased from 0.14 to 0.35

Tiger / Tiger Ace / Panther / King Tiger and the Blitzkrieg Ability

Upon review, we felt that it didn’t make much sense that these heavy armored vehicles could move in and out of danger so quickly. We also found that it provided a negative gameplay experience for those trying to counter this. Similar to the changes made to the Soviet Snipers’ sprint ability, we’ve decided to tone down the effectiveness of blitzkrieg specifically for these three units.

  • Blitzkrieg max speed bonus has been reduced from 35% to 15% exclusively for the Tiger and Panther. Other tanks remain the same.
  • Acceleration has been reduced from 60% to 30%
  • Combat Blitz ability speed bonus modifier has been reduced from 2 to 1.4

Nous avons dû créer un nouveau topic car la forme de l'ancien topic dédié aux changelogs rendait impossible la mise à jour du premier poste. Nous avions atteint le maximum de caractères pour un seul commentaire. De plus, les modifications et la publication du commentaire modifié prenait de plus en plus de temps. C'est aussi pour une question de lisibilité que nous avons préféré créer un nouveau topic.

BALANCE

Our team’s latest work in this area focused on two key areas of improvement: increasing the number of viable strategies in the game, and reducing negative user experiences in gameplay. It goes without saying (but we’ll say it to ease your concerns, JUST in case wink.png ) that this is an ongoing process and we don’t ever assume that we are in a ‘finished’ state with our balance. The team has been working hard to take into account player feedback, Alpha testing, and statistics pulled by our Business Insights team in order to ensure we are continually moving forward and progressing the gameplay experience for our players. Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to share constructive criticism with us. We look forward to more of your feedback in the future!

Here’s a quick breakdown of how we are working to achieve these two goals:

Increase the Number of Viable Strategies in the Game

  • Make core tech tree units more desirable
  • Increase the viability of light vehicle combat.
  • Promote and Encourage Combined Arms

Reduce Negative User Experiences in Gameplay

  • Reduce the amount of frustrating moments that can be caused by undesirable gameplay
  • Improve usability and remove unintended behavior from the game
  • General game balance tuning
  • Reduce the amount un-desired randomness generated

The Nitty Gritty:

General Gameplay Changes

Weapon Teams and Force Facing Feature in Ambient Buildings

  • Weapon Teams garrisoned in an ambient building can now be given a manual facing order to force face a direction. This toggle option is called "Direct Face Team Weapon". To undo this and revert back to automatic facing, players must toggle the "Cancel Direct Face Team Weapon" option

Super Heavy Call in Vehicles (Tiger, Tiger Ace, Elefant, IS2, ISU, Jadgtiger, Sturmtiger, KV2)
We are limiting Heavy Vehicles to a field limit of 1. We want the players to use the Heavy Tanks to support core units or have core units support the Heavy Tanks. We are anticipating this change will encourage players to spend their fuel on other units within their tech tree as it will be in-efficient to continue accumulating fuel. This also severely effects 3v3 and 4v4 games where players can see up to 12 Heavy Vehicles in a match.

  • Limited to having only 1 on the field

Prioritize Vehicle
For ease of use, we wanted to give players more control over their vehicle targeting.

  • Prioritize vehicle have been added to the following vehicles: Shermans (All Variants except the bulldozer) T34s (All Variants), Stuart, T-70, Greyhound, Panzer IV, IS2, Tiger (All Variants) and KV1.

Vehicle Criticals
In an effort to reduce frustrating RNG, we have decided to move the received Main Gun Destroy critical to a higher health threshold and removed the Engine Destroy Critical from the critical table. This change will prevent vehicles from “cheating death” at 0% Health. We have also made it easier to recover from getting engine damage from snares as you will be able to repair the critical at 75% health instead of 100%.

  • Main Gun Destroy critical chance moved from 0 health to 25% health
  • Engine Destroy critical chance removed
  • Engine Damaged critical cause by handheld snares can be repaired at 75% health

Flamethrowers
We wanted to reduce the amount of squad wiping moments caused by flamethrowers where player had no time to react.

  • Units with flamethrowers will no longer have a chance to explode until they are the last unit in the squad
  • No more flame criticals above 50% health.
  • Flame AOE Damage increased from 0.25 / 0. 625 / 1 to 0.4 / 0.7 /1

Planes
The chance of planes crashing into one of your units was extremely rare but when it does, it can be devastating and game changing for that player. Although we feel this is a spectacular event, we want the effects to be less punishing to both Players.

  • Plane crash AOE reduced from 15 to 6
  • Plane crash damage reduced from 750 to 240

Weapon teams
We’ve decided to make changes in order to prevent weapon teams from being killed while manned. This will prevent team weapon squads from being wiped because the weapon team got destroyed. Weapon teams will continue to take damage while manned, however will only receive its death critical when it is abandoned.

  • Can no longer be destroyed when manned

Game Data Organization Effort
Previously when we increased the lethality of infantry it was done with a blanket modifier of weapon accuracy and received accuracy. What we have done is adjusted the data so that the actual weapon stats are relative to its lethality. The performance of the unit and weapons are not changed. This is simply a data cleanup effort.

  • Removed accuracy weapon and receive accuracy modifiers that was used to increase infantry lethality and create a class type. Move respective values into the accuracy of the weapons and the size of the unit.

Panzerfaust / AT Grenade/ Rifle AT Grenades
We are retuning how infantry snares work; as they act as a big deterrent to using light vehicles. We hope this will encourage more cover and positional play with infantry to deal with vehicles.

  • Can no longer deal Engine Destroy critical
  • Can no longer generate critical to units over 75% HP for Medium and Heavy Vehicles

All HMGs
We felt blob counter units weren’t performing as well as we wanted and needed a performance boost to deal with Blobs of units better.

  • Incremental accuracy multiplier changed to 1.15
  • Incremental search radius changed to 10/12.5/15
  • Nearby suppression radius changed to 13 (except maxim HMG)
  • Min / Max Bursts unified

______________________

SOVIETS


PM-41 82mm Mortar:

Precision Strike is an ability that generated a lot of negative gameplay experience for players playing against it. The ability has a high probability to generate squad wipes with little tell to the opposing player.

  • Precision Strike Removed
  • Added Flares for Vet 1 Ability

HM-38 120 Mortar Squad
Precision Strike is an ability that generated a lot of negative gameplay experience for players playing against it. The ability has a high probability to generate squad wipes with little tell to the opposing player. The 120 Mortar squad previously having 100 damage also generated high probability of squad wipes. We have brought the damage down and adjusted its cost to compensate for the reduction.

  • Precision Strike Removed
  • Added Flares for Vet 1 Ability
  • Damage reduced from 100 to 80
  • Cost reduced from 400 to 340

PTRS & DP28-LMG
This weapon drop rates were set way higher than other weapons; basically setting the drop rate in line with other weapons. The Guard Troops carry a lot of droppable weapons so they always seem to drop a lot more weapons than any other Infantry squads. We’ve decided to reduce the drop rate to compensate for this.

  • Drop rate of PTRS at rifle and DP-28 LMG to from 33% to 10%

DSHK
The DSHK which was underperforming as a heavier machine gun option for Soviets. We decided to increase suppression as well as armor penetration to improve its utility against light vehicles.

  • Penetration increased from 1.5/2/3 to 1.5/3/4.5

M5-Halftrack
The Quad performance was severely lacking compared to other AA / AI vehicles. We’ve adjusted the stats to bring it in line with other AA Halftracks.

  • Quad 50 Cal suppression increased from 0.003 to 0.009
  • Quad 50 Cal damage increased from 8 to 12
  • Improved AA capabilities to be in line with Flak-Halftrack & AA Halftrack

SU-76
The performance of the Su-76 was not meeting our expectations. We felt its biggest problem was its lack of define role. We decided to improve the stats of the SU-76 so it can serve as a light tank destroyer. The SU-76 will still retain its versatility through the use of its barrage ability.

  • Health increased from 320 to 400
  • Penetration increased from 90/ 100/ 110 to 180/ 190 / 200
  • Cost increased from 240/70 to 280 / 75

Katushya:

  • Precision Strike Removed
  • Added Creeping Barrage as Vet 1 ability

B4
Fixed a small issue that made it possible for the B4 shots to not penetrate a tank using direct fire
Direct Fire penetration increased from 340 to 600 to prevent an issue of the shot not doing any damage to high armored units


______________________

Wehrmacht:


Stug G
We found the Stug G was missing a clear identity leading it to be a unit that was much underused. The changes we made will give the Stug G a role of a light tank destroyer.

  • Health increased from 400 to 560
  • Penetration increased from 110/120/130 to 170 / 185 / 200
  • AOE Penetration to match other tank destroyers profiles
  • Scatter Max to 8
  • Radius reduced from 1.5 to 0.5
  • Reaction Radius reduced to 0.5
  • Distances adjusted to match other tank destroyer profiles
  • Cost increased from 230/80 to 280/90

Stug E Call in
We felt the Stug E was over performing against infantry so we are reducing its rate of fire. We have also decided to bring its health in line with the Stug G

  • Reload increased from 3.8 to 5.3
  • Health increased from 400 to 560

______________________

OKW:


MG34
Currently does the least amount of suppression and is not an effective crowd control unit. We’ve decided to increase the suppression so it can fulfill its role as a crowd control unit.

  • Damage reduced from 4 to 2
  • Suppression increase by 15%

Minesweepers
Ease of use change; it was very hard to detect mines because Sturmpioneers needed to be so close.

  • Range increased to match other factions detection radius

Reinforced Wire
The Reinforced Wires were a source of frustration. The Community asked for a more reliable way to deal with reinforced wires other than explosives so we decided to make some changes.

  • Is now cuttable

Fallshirmjagers
Ease of use change to allow Fallshirmjagers to be more effective when they gain camouflage through veterancy.

  • Now have Hold Fire

Jaeger Light Infantry
Ease of use change to allow Jaeger Light Infantry to be more effective when they gain camouflage through veterancy.

  • Now have Hold Fire

Raktenwerfer
We found OKW had a difficult time engaging enemy armor with Infantry and Team Weapons. Panzershrecks were the only effective option which resulted in players using army compositions primarily based off of Volksgrenadiers with Panzershrecks. The Rakentenwerfer, because of its fragility would often just die before it was able to set up in a range where it could engage enemy vehicles even with support. By giving Raketenwerfers a toggle ability to camouflage we are anticipating it will give the OKW other options than to rely so heavily on Panzershrecks.

  • Now has a toggle ability that allows the squad to camouflage (Can move at 40% speed while camo)
  • Veterancy bonuses adjusted to account for no camouflage now grants improved movement speed in camouflage

IR Halftrack:
To promote use we have decided to reduce its fuel cost hopefully this will encourage more of its use in OKW Build orders.

  • Cost reduced from 200/25 to 200/0

Stuka zu Fuss
In its current form the Stuka is a great mobile artillery unit; however it has a very difficult time gaining Veterancy because of its high veterancy requirements and its high recharge time on its barrage ability. While the reason its recharge time is so high is due to its high potency (which we would like to keep) reducing its veterancy requirements should help this unit scale more into the late game.

  • Veterancy Requirements reduced by 20%

Sturmtiger
With the Sturmtiger's inability to do auto-fire this makes it very difficult to gain veterancy in its current form. We want to keep the Sturmtiger’s unit functionality and by reducing its veterancy requirements we hope to see this unit scale better into the late game.

  • Veterancy Requirements reduced by 20%

OKW Base defensive
Fixed an exploit that allowed players to snipe and steal OKW base defenses.

  • Can no longer be sniped

______________________

USF:


50 Cal HMG
We felt the 50.cal HMG was lacking in damage at far distances. The increase in damage from far will allow it to threaten and deal damage to squads at farther ranges.

  • Damage increased at far from 0.25 to 0.5

Stuart
With our goals to increase the usage and viability of light vehicles we found the Stuart was slightly under performing. As it is a very mobile tank that fires on the move quite frequently its previous accuracy and scatter values were set way too high to really make this unit combat efficient.

  • Health increased from 320 to 400
  • Moving accuracy increased from 0.5 to 0.75
  • Penetration increased from 45/45/60 to 45/50/65
  • FOW Scatter multiplier penalty reduced from 300% to 25%

AA Halftrack
We had feedback from the community members regarding AA mode and the AA Halftrack. It was expressed that AA mode would be better as a default ability in order to combat Axis airplanes.

  • Removed AA mode veterancy requirement
  • Gain increase acceleration at vet 1

BUG FIXES AND MINOR FEATURES

A tip of the helmet to our amazing Alpha testers who reported dozens of bugs resolved by designers in their balance tuning efforts. Live also received many minor text bug fixes across English and our supported languages: French, Italian, German, Spanish, Russian, Czech and Polish. Thanks to everyone who took the time to report an issue!

Some players will be happy to note that we have added support for 4k Monitors – the HUD will no longer appear ‘tiny’ when playing at the highest resolution.

  • A hang when exiting back to the lobby from a match has been fixed by validating objects over subsequent frames rather than all at once.
  • Fixed Issue where Veteran 1 Tool tip on the Soviet Sniper would appear as No Key
  • Adjusted Tool Tip Text on Pioneer Repair button
  • Post Match Stats Buttons are locked until Front End has loaded in order to prevent a Hang when Exiting a match

That's All She Wrote for the June 23rd update, hope you've all enjoyed the notes and are now greatly anticipating June 23rd. We can't wait to bring these changes to you all!

July 21 Update

This update will go live on July 21stat 10:00am PST
The primary focus of the July 21st update is to continue the design upgrade of the existing factions to improve the overall balance of all factions in preparation for the introduction of the British Forces. This is the second phase migration of changes seen in the British Forces Alpha.

The next update will be on Sept 3rd which will introduce the British Forces Content.


July 14 Balance Preview

Balance
Bug Fixes



BALANCE

Balance Goals


Increase the number of viable strategies in the game

  • Make core tech tree units more desirable
  • Increase the viability of light vehicle combat.
  • Promote and Encourage Combined Arms
Reduce negative user-experiences in gameplay
  • Improve usability and remove unintended behavior from the game
  • General game balance tuning
General Gameplay Updates

Medium and Heavy Call in Vehicles (Tiger, Tiger Ace, Elefant, IS2, ISU, Jadgtiger, Sturmtiger, KV2)
We are making pacing adjustments to increase the length of Infantry/light vehicle combat phase.
  • All heavies get an increase CP of 2 Points
  • Stug E Call in CP requirement increased from 6 to 7
  • Puma Call in CP requirement lowered from 6 to 5
  • M10 Tank Destroyer CP requirement increased from 7 to 8
  • Bulldozer Sherman CP requirement increased from 9 to 10
  • M4C Sherman CP requirement increased from 9 to 10
Buildings:
Splats have been removed certain base buildings which allowed players to see which buildings were being built in the fog of war.


SOVIETS

Soviet Tech Tree
Tech tree has been adjusted and reformatted to create more diverse and creative strategies with the faction. We felt the Soviet tech tree encouraged a very binary gameplay and created reliance on dispatch abilities. With these changes we anticipate players will be encouraged to explore new combined arms strategies.
  • T1 (160/50) to (160/40) Penal Battalion / M3 Scout Car / Sniper
    • No requirements
  • T2 (160 manpower 50 fuel) Zis AT Gun / Maxim / Mortar
    • No requirements
  • T3 (240/60) to (240/80 and 170 seconds) M5 Halftrack / T70 / SU-76
    • Requires T1 or T2
  • T4 (240/100) to (240/90 and 150 seconds) T-34-76 / SU-85 / Katyusha
    • Requires T3
Conscript
We noticed an irregular value in the causality timer for conscripts which was exceedingly higher than all other infantry. We have brought the timer in line with other infantry causality timers.
  • Casualty timer brought down from 500 seconds to 30 seconds
T34-76
To compensate for the increase in teching cost to produce t34s
  • Cost reduced from 310/100 to 300/80
T34-85
We decided to take a different approach with Medium Call-ins and have them tie into the core tech tree. This change still require the player to have commander equipped with a T34-85 Commander ability but also will now require players to build a Mechanized Armor Kampaneya to acquire the T34-85 medium tank.
  • T34-85 is no longer a call in vehicle
  • T34-85 is now buildable in the Mechanized Armor Kampaneya
  • CP changed from 9 to 0
DSHK 38
We removed focus fire from the DSHK 38 as it was preventing the AOE suppression from working properly.
  • Focus fire removed
M5 Halftrack
Usability improvement.
  • Removed requirements on Quad upgrade
Maxim HMG
We wanted the Maxim HMG to be more reliable at countering infantry blobs.
  • Maxim nearby suppression multiplier increased from 0.4 to 0.8
ML 20 152 Artillery
We want to encourage the use of the ML20 which was previously underperforming.
  • Salvos increased from 4 to 8
  • Removed precision strike at veterancy 1
  • Veterancy 1 now increases the number of salvos of the ML 20 by 2 (10 Total)
USF

Weapon Rack
We combined both upgrades to make it easier for the players to access their weapon racks.
  • Bar & Bazooka Upgrades are now combined into one. (150/15)
Major
We are making pacing adjustments to increase the length of Infantry/light vehicle combat phase.
  • Cost increased from 90 Fuel to 120 Fuel
Captain
We are making pacing adjustments to increase the length of Infantry/light vehicle combat phase.
  • Cost reduced from 200/80 to 200 / 60
Pak Howitzer
The Pak Howitzer was currently underperforming for cost we have made a slight adjustment to bring it in line with its performance.
  • Cost reduced from 480 to 380
  • Changed reinforce cost discount from 1.0 to 0.5 to match existing weapon crews
Sherman Easy Eight
We decided to take a different approach with Medium Call-ins and have them tie into the core tech tree. This change still require the player to have the Rifle Company Commander but also will now require players to unlock the Battalion Command Post to acquire the M4A3E8 Sherman ‘Easy Eight).
  • M4A3E8 Sherman ‘Easy Eight’ is now a buildable Tank in the Battalion Command Post
  • CP requirement reduced to 0
P47 – Rocket Strike
The huge loiter size made it difficult to get out of Loiter zone during the P47 Rocket Strike. The reduce radius should make it easier for players to avoid P47 Loiter area.
  • Loiter radius reduced from 60 to 50
OKW

Stumtiger / Panzer IV Ausf J
We felt the OKW lacked a Generalist Tank that wasn’t extremely expensive and can reliably deal with both Infantry and Tanks. With this change we anticipate the players could have more armor options than to save for an expensive Panther or King Tiger.
  • Sturmtiger removed from core tree added to Elite Armor Tree
  • Added Panzer IV Ausf J to the Schwerer Panzer Headquarters
OKW Panzer IV Ausf J Medium Tank:
We felt the Panzer IV was slightly underperforming so we made some adjustments
  • Now starts off with Side Skirts
  • Stats aligned with other Panzer IV
Sturmtiger
With the Sturmtiger's inability to do auto-fire this makes it very difficult to gain veterancy in its current form. We want to keep the Sturmtiger’s unit functionality and by reducing its veterancy requirements we hope to see this unit scale better into the late game. We also improved the usability of this unit by making its damage more consistent as well as improving its range.
  • Penetration increased from 150 to 1000
  • Range increased from 40 to 45
  • AOE Penetration increased to 1000
  • Damage at Far increased from 0.05 to 0.30
Sturm Pioneers
One of the biggest problems the Sturm Pioneers faced was the expensive manpower cost to reinforce. With the overall design changes to the OKW early game we wanted to make reinforcing Sturm Pioneers less penalizing on the player which will encourage their use in various builds.
  • Reinforce cost reduced from 40 to 32
  • Reinforce time reduced by 20%
Infantry Support Gun
The Infantry Support Gun was currently underperforming for cost we have made a slight adjustment to bring it in line with its performance.
  • Cost reduced from 430 to 330
Wehrmacht

General
We decided to increase the Wehrmacht’s starting manpower to 420 to compensate for lack of starting base infantry. This should also give more options for Wehrmacht players to diversify their build.
  • Starting manpower increased from 360 to 420
Battle Phases
One of the Design Goals for the Wehrmacht was to give the faction flexibility in which they could tech. However, that was not the case due to the expensive nature of their battle phases. By offsetting the costs to the buildings instead of the upgrade it gives players an easier time to upgrade through battle phases.
  • Battle Phase 1 decreased from 200/45 to 100/40
  • Battle Phase 2 decreased from 200/55 to 100/45
  • Battle Phase 3 decreased from 200/60 to 100/50
Tech Buildings
  • Building 2 increased from 120/15 to 200/20
  • Building 3 increased from 160/25 to 260/75
  • Building 4 increased from 160/30 to 260/80
Grenadiers
The increase ability max range modifier allowed grenadiers to fire their rifle grenades at such a range that players would not be able to react to the incoming grenade.
  • Removed ability max range modifier at veterancy level 2
MG42 HMG:
To encourage and diversify builds we have decided to move the HMG to the HQ. We expect this change will prompt more Wehrmacht opening strategies. We have adjusted the MG42’s cost and build time to bring it more in line with its performance.
  • Moved to HQ
  • Cost increased from 240 to 260
  • Build time increase from 30 seconds to 36 seconds
Panzerwerfer
Ease of use change to allow the Panzerwerfer to gain veterancy at a more reasonable rate.
  • Reduce veterancy requirements by 20%
Stuka JU-87D Anti-Infantry Strafe
We are increasing the delay slightly to give players more time to react to the JU-87.
  • Delay increased by 1.5 seconds
Stuka JU-87D Anti-Tank Strafe
We are increasing the delay slightly to give players more time to react to the JU-87.
  • Delay increased by 1.5 seconds
Redistribute Resource
We found that Redistribute Resources was providing too high of a munition yield for cost.
  • Munition gain from conversion reduced from 150 to 125 munitions
Command Tank
The command tank aura provided in territory created too many inconsistent instances due to different territory sizes. This should improve usability.
  • No Longer requires territory to provide defense Aura
  • Now is radius based (45)
LEFH 105 Artillery
We want to encourage the use of the ML20 which was previously underperforming.
  • Salvos increased from 6 to 10
----This concludes tuning pack changes----

Gameplay Updates:

Random AOE issues
Area of Effect weapons had accuracy and penetration fall off values that would make Area of Effect damage inconsistent. In the case with Mines, it sometimes wouldn’t do any damage when it obviously triggered.

  • Removed Accuracy and Penetration from AOE. Accuracy values have been changed to always hit and Penetration value have been changed to the same as the value of the weapon. There were a lot of issues that accuracy value and penetration values created with AOE. One of them being mines sometime doing no damage even when triggered. We raised AOE accuracy so it can no longer miss and Penetration to match the penetration value of the weapon.

AOE Weapon tuning
By removing AOE accuracy and penetration fall off from AOE weapons, we had to make adjustments to many AOE weapons to compensate for this. AOE radius on AOE Weapons may have changed slightly due to this.
Ambient Buildings
We wanted to improve unit response times when infantry squads are entering and exiting ambient buildings.

  • Changed time to load into and unload out of buildings to 0.

Target Tables
To isolate relationships of certain weapons vs a unit type without affecting its relationship with all the other units, we felt we needed to use target tables.

  • Target tables have been added into the Attribute Editor. All extra damage towards certain unit types have been moved from damage penetration actions to the target table.

New Weapon Type
We felt grenades were taking down ambient buildings too easily so we wanted to isolate its weapon critical type from other bigger explosive weapons.

  • Small Explosive and big explosive. Small explosives are grenades and big explosives are every other explosive weapons.

Flame Weapons and Flame Criticals
We were not happy with how Flamethrower weapons took on the role of an anti-infantry upgrade when its role was anti-cover. All Infantry and Vehicle Flame weapons now spawn a flame Damage over time on the location of the flame burst. Flame weapons also have a 50% accuracy debuff while moving. This is to prevent flame units from acting like assault troops or easily wiping retreating infantry.

  • Flame Criticals no longer trigger at 50% health but at 0%.
  • All Flame Weapons have had their damage increased to compensate
  • All Flame Weapons now leave a flame DOT doing damage over time in that area.
  • All Infantry and Vehicle Flame weapons are 50% less accurate while moving.

Squad Formations

All infantry squads has had their squad formation updated to better spread out the units in open, and negative cover. Their formation in light or heavy cover remains the same.

  • New Squad Formation added to existing infantry to make them spread out more

ALL Howitzers

We wanted to make it easier for players to counter Howitzers.

  • Howitzers can no longer be built in Command H.Q Territory

Balance Updates

Bridges

We have increased the durability of bridges so they can withstand more damage.

  • Bridges health and armor increased

Wehrmacht

We are increasing the CP of the Command Tank to bring it in-line with our new tank pacing.

  • Command Tank CP increased from 8 to 9

Soviets

The ML-20 was doing too much damage per shot for the number of shells it fired. We have decided to reduce the damage.

  • ML-20 Damage reduced from 300 to 160

USF

We wanted to improve the Field Defense Commander upgrade.

  • Field Defenses - CP reduced from 2 to 0
  • Field Defenses - M7 Mine replaced with regular mine

OKW

Sturmtiger

The visual feedback from the FX was smaller than the actual damage radius. To match visual feedback and damage radius we are reducing its AOE radius slightly.

  • Weapon AOE Radius changed from 10 to 8

Avez vous une solution fiable ? Je précise qu'il s'agit du Pack comprenant COH, COH : OF, COH : TOV et COH : Legacy et j'ai constaté le bug sur Battle of the Bulge et sur Far East War

Thank you for all your patience as we worked to resolve this. ELO & ranks are now reenabled as well. Bug Fixes Addressed a crash while loading into a 4v4 quick match. Artillery Radio Beacon now stops receiving bonuses to rate of fire and range as soon as the ability is cancelled.

    • Bonjour, Je pense que la version de CoH sur le CD/DVD de CoH Anthology est en quelque sort trop vieille et donc plus compatible pour fonctionner sur Windows 10. Si je me suis souviens bien, CoH Anthology regroupe : CoH, CoH : Opposing Fronts et CoH : Tales of Valor. As-tu toujours les clés/codes CD de ces jeux ? Si oui, alors je te conseille d'ajouter ces clés sur Steam pour pouvoir télécharger le jeu dans sa dernière version et y jouer. Procédure dans ce sujet :
