I have been playing this game since day one release and the last update has almost ruined it for me. I’m not sure what you did to the cover system but I am getting repeatedly killed while in cover. I didn’t have the problem until this most recent update it seems as though bullets are going through concrete walls. Also you dumbed down the artillery so much that it is now ineffective. I shouldn’t have to wait 5 minutes in between using my artillery strikes and therefore you have made the radio operator useless. On top of that how is it possible for my entire squad to get meleed by one person? Something needs to be done about the AI defending themselves and hand-to-hand combat because that is just ridiculous. Overall the game is not what it used to be and I fear that it will soon no longer be playable. Please fix these issues I know I’m not the only one with these complaints.
They did not “dumb down” artillery, they gave it a well deserved nerf.
To the point it’s now useless?
But it isnt useless at all?
It might as well be! Can no longer call in strikes while teammates are using one so if you need to use one right away you’re screwed.
So the arty being called everywhere all at once constantly was a fun gameplay mechanic? Being unable to attack at all? No thanks. Arty nerf was well deserved.
Artillery Radio Operators play a supportive role not an active combat role, so you’re screwing yourself in the knee here.
If you want artillery you mark it on the map and request it from a “Artillery Operator Support Squad”
You don’t get special MOAB privileges to call in arty directly lol, i hope you take a rifle round to the face while trying to call in.
Go back to CoD, this is Red Orchestra now.
Well that’s not what I said at all was it?
The AI one is a decent complaint. The arty one is just seething.
I think AI is better at closed combat than it was, I see 1-2 kills daily. Before - it has not happened for weeks after they removed the terminator bots and made them listen.
I also composed a very long and boring brainstorming about solving issue weeks ago. 
Oh here we go someone who literally thinks they are in real combat. The nerf wasn’t necessary and makes the radio operator useless
But it doesnt. I can still call arty quite helpfully. Upgrade your squads, bro.
The AI in general is frustrating
But do you not agree it’s useless when you have to wait almost 5 minutes and between artillery volleys?
No, it makes you useless, to yourself, and others, git gud.
Much better than it constantly being spammed and ripping everyone apart, teammate and enemy alike, for what can be no risk at all for the radio operator, just like m*rtar users. Upgrade your squad for a 60 second reload
Upgrade squads.
›Arty spammer
›NOOO GIVE ME BACK MY CRUTCH I WAS TOTALLY CONTRIBUTING FROM OUR SPAWN!!!
Now you actually have to play the game instead of spamming arty making it utterly unplayable for everyone else
The arty nerf was really big, but I don’t hate it. I’d rather have arty as a situational tool that can change the battle at a crucial moment than being spammed every 30 seconds and covering half the map.
But when it hits it should be big. I don’t have much experience with the new way it goes, but I guess they reduced the damage too much.
