Bugs & Tech Support / Tank riders present but can't be chosen

« on: May 20, 2013, 09:42:46 PM »

Greetings to the developers!

Good to see you've made EF compatible with 1.700 patch 

I installed the EF  1.800 and the 1.801 patch so it should have been  ok.

However,when I had one game today as Soviets (breakthrough doctrine or whatever it is called)I noticed that the Tank riders are still present as the 2nd option on the right side of the doctrine tech tree.

I know you've highlighted that they were removed,but why can't I see the change?

What is the problem?

Bugs & Tech Support / Can play as soviets in OF with 2.700 ! IMPORTANT!

« on: May 03, 2013, 09:20:48 AM »

I know that the issue of not being able to play as soviets  has already been brought up but here is what I encountered.

At first I installed EF into the steamapps/common/Company of Heroes Relaunch,that is the new steam version. The game would have the vCOH Wehrmacht and US faction unlocked as well as the PE and commonwealth of OF . The Soviets were in the allies faction list but I couldn't select them. When I played skirmish with the available factions,I had numerous crashes even on low settings(not TEMP issue,simple crash to desktop).

Later on I realized that OF is actually  installed in another folder steamapps/common/company of heroes
When I installed the EF into that folder and updated it, I got the PE ,commonwealth and Soviets available!But not the Wehrmacht and US. 

Maybe someone else can confirm this?
Also, I reported the issue with locked vCOH campaign to steam support,but received no reply yet. Any solution?

N.B! I did verify game cache already.

Notes: Played a skirmish,Soviets vs PE(normal AI)- got crashed .Real challenge to play as soviet without reading the attached Soviet faction guide. 20 minutes into the game and still playing defensive with infantry and some support weapons on the field. KV-1 being destroyed by panzersrecks and Marders. AI getting weapon upgrades like a boss! Even the luftwaffe ground forces scored some kills on my infantry.

 In addition I stumbled across one thing: Soviet tank riders were in the commander tree but upon unlocking them, I didn't get to call them in. were they disabled?
