Adjusted the destructibility of wooden fences, gates and posts, as well as stone fences in the Far East.
Updated the animations for the M1941 Johnson LMG.
The “Auto” Graphics API option now starts the game using DirectX 12 on AMD graphics cards with RDNA 4 architecture. The option to use DirectX 11 specifically is still available.
Additional changes that were added previously in a hotfix:
Fixed a bug that caused projectiles fired from turrets to fly in a direction different from where they were aimed.
The most important part of this update has to be the durability adjustments for objects on the Far East map.
I’ve wanted to complain about this for ages.
Some stone walls and wooden fences on Far East cannot be smashed or destroyed even when tanks drive over them. Unlike other maps, even APCs can’t get through them. They are practically the toughest objects in‑game.Even satchel charges only have a low chance to destroy them
When will artillery shells and heavy machine guns also be able to blow up those stone walls and wooden fences
This is still a decision. There’s a lot more than “just remove it” as considerations - we already have faction differences (related to other parts of the game and exclusive items for one faction rather than different body armors/health values for different nations), and want to preserve them to some extent (with or without body armor effects). Removing them is still in theory possible (but not fun to do, since there are players that have paid for these clothing items with Gold, so a massive set of refunds may be needed, and annoying those who spent a lot on it already with appearance orders), but what may happen is a nerf (or a few nerfs) applied to them, and perhaps they will be given to more factions as well. Then weapon balance also plays a part here, what that will look like depending on the nerf, etc, how to adapt it, and so on.
Then what about the appearance items from the gold chests?, they still cost gold, even if you own the squad. The collectable squads the devs “fixed” ruin the one thing that makes them worth getting.
Also, it has been in the game for years and people have been asking for it to be removed or have a downside. It’s like the PPSH-41 dispersion problem all over again
Why not give other nations their own corresponding national‑themed special gear?
Japan already gets unique low‑cost katanas and anti‑tank lances in‑game. Why not add special limited‑function national‑themed gear for Germany and Britain as well?
Just like in World War I, where only Germany developed stormtrooper units.
No disrespect towards you Major, but this is just a kind lie into our face to hide the fact that the developers do not want to take away an exploit from their favourit faction.
Removing damage reduction does not take away anything from the players that bought body armour cosmetics.
There have been many changes to customization recently. Damage reduction was removed from a lot of headgear and clothing pieces such as the models splittertarn smocks and splittertarn pants were changed. Zero refunds given.
An American World War II-era flak vest—likely the M12 model or the M1 Flyer’s Vest—manufactured in the M1 Flak Vest, used by the US Army during World War II.
I gotta remind You that if it wasnt because that idiotic decisión and not thinking on how would affect later on this wouldnt have happened
And since y’all speak money language wouldnt be better to add body armor to everyone so? i mean if You Said ppl has paid tons of gold and orders for that what would happen if we give equal treatment by giving everyone body armor
And after all the ppl who surrendered abt this topic of body armor sadly including myself You saying that only cuz some refunds devs can’t remove it like XD? bro what kind of excuse is that XDDD?
