Title: Eastern Front 1.40 Patch
Post by: Rikard Blixt on May 26, 2011, 10:09:19 PM
Eastern Front Patch 1.40
'Rise of the Aces'

Eastern Front Fans,

The 1.40 patch is now released. Containing multiple balance changes, bug fixes, new criticals for all soviet units, new music for soviets, new PTRD-41 model and maybe most importantly and waited, reward units for soviets. Also it was removed the Jagdtiger to give Wehrmacht the Tiger Ace as reward unit for King Tiger, using the Black skin of Schultz's tiger as the community requested; also PE got the Nashorn as reward unit for the Flak 88 and RMC got a couple of surprises.

Also, we proudly announce, three new members that joined roughly since the release of the 1.31 update to our staff:


Robotnik is helping us to fix bugs and apply balance changes and also is revamping EF's AI, a share of his work can be found in the current version's AI.

Crasius is helping us to fix bugs and apply balance changes as well, but he also help us to set up stuff in Object Editor, like animations.

Tiger205 is helping us with Ostheer's animations on his free time.

They have been really helpful and without them helping us fixing all the stuff for this update would be... more complicated. Thanks to Tiger205 we have the IS-3 in EF and are a massive leap closer to releasing the Ostheer.

Special thanks to:


Thanks for downloading and continue to enjoy,

Eastern Front Development Team

OMG guys the changelog doesn't do justice to the work you've put into this upgrade.  Well done and congrats to the whole team.

I did see a little wierdness in the game I just raced through against an AI but will post that elsewhere as it's probably me.  Overall love it.  The offmap arty for the sniper ace was a surprise - couldn't help but laugh.

In a word : awesome.  Thankyou !

now you must be agile now. If you have autoupadting on, you must quickly turn it off in settings tab. Then off you go.

Easier fix, to be honest, go to your company of heroes directory. There find "EF_Launcher_Config.ini", open it with wordpad, replace Auto_Update=True with Auto_Update=False

 Uninstalled 1.31 (Got 1.40 full)
 Installed fresh. Initial menu crashes right off the bat?
 Try it twice more.
 Uninstall 1.40 full.
 Reinstall 1.40 full.
 Same thing.
 Redownloaded 1.40
 Same thing.
 Reinstalled 1.31
 Installed 1.31-1.40
 Same thing.
 
 ... :p
 
  Meh. Yes, edit the stupid ini file is easier ;)

 Thank you much for infos ;)
 (God, I must really want to play this game, don't I?)

 : Haven't played yet, but... is SU76 supposed to be
 THAT insanely expensive? (Same cost as Sherman 76 LL)
 But... quite a downgrade?

SU-76 IMO is better than the LL sherman. It's a much more useful tank destroyer rather than a not-so-great at anything tank.

+1 its a superior tank destroyer, in all regards. It's not a main battle tank

+1 SU-76 is an excellent addition to the game imo.  Though I'm going to have to learn how to keep them alive.  Not doing so well at that yet  ;D .
Thanks again guys.  This is like getting v1.0 all over again...so much good stuff to try, learn and know !

On May 26, I tried to play three games with a friend of mine and every time the game crashed. The next day, we tried to play again but I couldnt even launch the game. Every time I clicked on the launcher, a message would pop up saying "Eastern Front Launcher has stopped working"

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I noticed some other people have also been having problems with the game crashing, but it seems like they can at least launch the game. I tried reinstalling the mod, version 1.4.0.0. But the same error kept occurring.

Another thing, the game is always crash in the first minute of the play, some advice would be nice

First I have to say, good work.
But there are two things I don't really like.
One is the "new" god of war. The "old" one was perfect with the artillerie firing for a long time over a big area.
Secound thing is the upgrade for the sovjet infanterie.

It would be fantastic if you bring it back.  ::)

Sorry for my bad english.

No way!
It sucked - just a useless, if not harmful, waste of ammo. If it were any good for anyone, that would be for axis players.

But it was really good for psychological warfare. The enemy never tried to attack me while god of war was activated and if you used it right it made a lot of damage to the axis. ;)

I prefer physical destruction it brings now to any "psychological" one, especially since that latter one didn't stop too many of enemies, while killing my units rather effectively, though they were really far-far away.

That's right but it's a thing you have to risk and with a little training it worked fantastic. :)

There was no training required for the old GoW. Get deep into enemy territory and click anywhere. It was a useless noob power that took no skill to use. Now it actually matters where you target it.

bear in mind i've only used these things a couple of times at most so i can only give an initial view of how things look.
i tried out some of the maps, all quite good.
The god of war ability  is better.
The new SU76 TD is pretty amazing, weak armour but with AP rounds on it's very effective.
The SU122, erm not sure what to make of it so far it just seems like a copy of the StuH assault gun i preferred the KV2 tbh.

I do like the changes to the fuel cost for SU85 makes it a viable option. the KV1 is a beast of a tank, so incredibly tough it's very good at pinning enemy units in place.

Naval infantry are pretty awesome.
My friend tells me the Nashorn is epic, excellent range power with the trade-off of having to be locked down to fire very nice.

Tiger ace, well idk there's already a call-in tiger in another doctrine so i think i preferred the Kingtiger.

Congratulations DEVELOPERS

My overview
trample units has no price!
Conscripts ok but I would call back "our bullets or theirs' icon was hilarious:)
naval infantry is great and I thought I'd miss the trenches. I was surprised again:)
Katyucha price is ok
BUT
The new Tiger ace is not the old tiger ace. he could be called again. Now is unique .... I missed the option
KV1 The shot is coming out the barrel / he would be shot or explosive penetration? the machine gun tower is out of place / But it is an extraordinary unity in general /
su122 could have a longer shot

Questions
The range of shooting the Rhino will be the basis of the Elephant?

Glad to hear you like it ;D. Would be unfair if you can call more than once the Ace, everyone will choose it and forget the KT.

About the Elefant... don't know :P.

Hey guys,
after I had installed the 1.4 patch the game doesn't want to start.
I reinstalled everything but it does still not work.
The error massage says that the Eastern Front Launcher does not work any longer.
I can start the normal CoH without problems.

I hope anyone of you can help me?  ???

The first thing any user should do after creating an account is to read the stickied threads. And that thread is stickied on bugs & tech support, where this kind of comments should go.

We already have read a gazillion of times this kind of posts/topics over the last week and counting... i find hard to belive you didn't see any of them.

I was going to post that link as well but seeing that walki1 did the favor i just turned around, but now you mention it, i thought i should clarify this.

as they are not trying to get tanks they used to in previous versions,may be that is balance change?

Because I'am a lazy guy, I write down my question here, instead of search the right topic and write there.
When you guys release the Ostheer, and (I think) make a few patch for balance and other stuff, will you start to make a new faction or factions? or a complete new mod? because this team of yours are really good ... you are experts, so if you feel the power inside you (you can call in Captain planet :D:D:D), you could make something new again.

Perhaps the A.I. could be modified to build to a minimum force template, Say on a 100 pop map, (avg) 24% armor, 12% artillery, 24% infantry?
