[IceySmooth]

Honestly lots of good changes here, would be nice…

Continuing the discussion from Preliminary patch notes for the “Hidden Threat” update:

@MajorMcDonalds

• Reduced the spread of the following weapons: AT-44, AS-44 Model 4, AS-44 Model 5, Hyde M1944, Gewehr 43 (8mm Kurz), StG 44, Sniper StG 44, Horn StG, StG 45 (M), MKb 42(H), Sniper MKb 42(H), MKb 42(W), MKb 42(M), VG 1-5, MP 43/1, MKb 35/III, Type 2a (6.5mm).
• Reduced the recoil control from 75% to 50% of the following weapons and their variants: AVS-36, AKT-40, AVT-40, Fedorov Avtomat, Fedorov rifle (25), T20E1 rifle, T20 Rifle, FG 42, FG 42 II, Krieghoff FG, Type Hei Automatic rifle, Breda PG (CR).

Honestly FINALLY good battle rifle nerfs. Let there be good space for assault rifles, since these hyper optimized full power spam has been meta for over a year+

So that means it will be available before the Tokyo Arsenal and the Type 2 (50 rounds) in the research tree?

[IceySmooth]

Whatever

Items now showing armor is great

PS New premium squads showing Secondary weapon in the squad loadout as primary.

Note Berdan and pistol for engineer, same for german squad

Nvidia dlss 4.5, FSR as of 2024 still 2.0. Radeon players also play this game.

To me, this was a major misstep with balancing it. Yes, the dispersion is a lot better now, but it still doesn’t change the downright awful TTK at BR5 compared to other rifles. Also, all the other high BR ARs got dispersion buffs as well including the STG, AS-44, both of which got even better dispersion values than the MKB, which just completely took away any meaning to buffing the MKB to being good enough for BR5. I’m quite disappointed with this.

I used the base values since I don’t have any progress on my PC account btw, but all 3 guns have the same upgrades so all would have 15% less dispersion. For reference, current dispersion values for the previously mentioned guns are; 53 for the MKB, 46 for the STG, and 39 for the AS-44.

Split the uniform of Japanese infantry into torso and legs on the Appearance screen.

Words cannot describe how long i have waited for this. Now all that remains is giving the standard japanese tan army uniform for purchase instead of locking it behind premium tanker squads

@GasMasters-live

It wouldnt be DF if for no reason the russian one wouldnt have for some wierd reason way better dispersion again as the axis counterpart…
fucking bias showing itself again…

[Shadow_the_Wolf]

I don’t see the options:

“fixed pathetic matchmaking”
“removed constant uptiering”
“added campaign selection”
“improved map rotation”

[wlnecro1]

This is literally the best patch notes we’ve had in over a year. Cry harder

@warfare_master

@MajorMcDonalds

• Added additional overcoat customization options for German Volkssturm squads.

This sounds kinda nice

Nice Volks in Ardennes

Unholy Stalingrad Volkssturm

The competition for best patch notes hasn’t been that stiff in a while anyway

[warfare_master]

I hadn’t downloaded the server when I wrote that. I made a suggestion about something similar, but you already know that, you voted ‘no’?

[QA_meerosch]

@MrBigD7_PL

FSR as of 2024 still 2.0

FSR was updated too. Patchnote will be edited later

[wlnecro1]

Still. Reworking a br and all the graphics and customization changes and the squad slot stuff is very nice

• Reduced the recoil control from 70% to 60% of the following weapons: Type Hei LMG, Scotti Naval Rifle, Cei-Rigotti Rifle, Breda PG (Carcano).

And where is the fedorov MG?
It also functions just like a SF rifle with enhanced damage so it also should have its recoil control nerfed or otherwise recieve normal mg damage if it isnt supposed to be an SF rifle aswell…

[wlnecro1]

“Federov variants” wait sorry

[RRogoruOficial]

Where do you find these spreadsheets?

[Alex66_68]

@MajorMcDonalds

• Changed the BR of the Stug III F from III to II.
• Changed the BR of the M18 GMC from IV to III.
• Changed the BR of the Na-To from III to II and removed its APCR shells.
• Changed the BR of the 15 cm Pz.W.42 from IV to III.

Long-awaited BR change, thank you

Not sure where he got it but he said that it is fake.
