Transport Vehicles

A much needed change to the vehicles has arrived. APCs (Half-tracks, Bren Carrier, etc) and unarmored vehicles will be riskier to have on the battlefield.

• Are more vulnerable to high explosives (HE rounds can one-shot transport vehicles)
• Are more vulnerable to AP rounds (will disable them after one-hit regardless of engine hit or not)
• HTs now take 5 times more damage from Artillery
• Unarmored vehicles now take 8 times more damage from Artillery
• Unarmored vehicles have much less operating HP so they now become disabled after 200-300 damage (was 1000 before)
• Wheel damage slows the vehicles down more
• Increased engine health so unarmored vehicles can take a bit more small arms fire
• Increased turning ability of Jeep, Kubel, and GAZ when moving at slow speeds

Dragon’s Teeth

• Raised the cost from 200 to 250
• Can now be dug up anytime (no longer requires supply truck in range)
• Takes longer to construct
• Lowered the minimum damage required to harm (more things can damage them)

Quality of Life

• Various minor map improvements and organization
• Raised the minimum connection setting (NetSpeed)
• Sergeants, Corporals, Assault, and Combat Engineers spawn with extra ammo now

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where Allied artillery marks could be seen by Axis on the situation map
• Fixed a bug where public voice chat would still be disabled when the round is over

Hopeful Fix

There has been a bug plaguing a few DH players since the spectator update a while back. The bug happens whenever that player dies; perhaps more specifically when that player dies whilst in a vehicle, manning a gun, or is gibbed by HE and thus doesn’t have a “model” to view. We have not been able to reproduce it or get our hands on a machine that has the issue. So this “bug fix” is a shot in the dark and we can only hope it fixes the issue for those few that have the issue. For more information visit the reported issue.
