Some good changes, though snipers don't have 100% acc against each other like in EF, which is something I would like to keep since snipers missing the countersnipe infuriates me.

Relic should learn a lesson from EF.
Anyways, I like all this new stuff; a little late, but fine in the end.

How so?
Brit vet stacking (Dmg)
1LT 2LT 3LT
Old 1.18 1.33 1.5
New 1.23 1.27 1.33

Vet stacking got a pretty substantial nerf. Though a single LT is also more powerful and difficult to kill now.

Here's a vid showing off the new strafe.

Finally stop at Fallschirmjager/AT Inf. blobs :)

Moreover, this is a very important point too:

Recon Sections can no longer build Trenches

Title: Re: Company of Heroes Balance Beta Final Changelog
Post by: GodlikeDennis on March 21, 2011, 01:47:18 PM: An instant, unavoidable, cover negating, pin that does good damage and even better damage to blobs? I think it's still pretty good. Nowhere near it's old days of OPness though.

That's exactly what I mean :)
What I'm trying to say, is that german sector artillery or Henschel strike didn't change a bit. Though these never were that good against infantry, still - quite a powerful abilities. So it appears to be a one-sided nerf. Maybe it's a fair one, but a sad one none the less.

Post by: Paciat on May 11, 2011, 08:03:54 AM: Marders ACs Vampire and Munitions Halftracks get buffed and Suarts/Stags gun wont have any bonuses vs PE ACs and all halftracks. Also Shrecks will be more usefull vs M-8s. Very good news for PE.

IJoe, the Nazis behind all of this! ;D 8)
By the way, now the game is near properly balanced, no 5 hp bug, sniper-dancing bug. There are wierd things, that the Panther bug, instead of the need of 24 MP when you got 12 MP free, you can call in the Panther Battlegroup and one Panther comes out for 1000 MP. The Sector Artylerry works on neutral points. The Henschel is not very accurate and and you need LoS (as Sector). But Relic did a good job, wonder how the 2.6002 patch affect the EF mod thou.
