Leophone has no say on Balance changes.

If priority is to be fixed, the SDT / Balance team will look at it.

well then don't reject this change out of hand.  Who is even on the balance team these days?  What is their opinion on the matter?

[3rdCondor]

It should remain the top priority because it doesn't have that many  functions at all. It should be the "decoy bitch" for other tanks to shoot at.

Good enough for me.  Apologies for being obnoxious.

All good - just remember, this mod is for you guys, we dont do things / ignore things to piss you off, it just takes time with limited resources / time

[AmPM]

I'm pretty sure you do things to piss people off.

Also, when is Tiger Ace with V1 launcher coming in?

Oh me personally?  Fuck yeah!

I meant 'we' as in the royal 'all of us' we. LOL

Also, when is Tiger Ace with V1 launcher coming in?

When I start playing Axis again, and I get pissed off.

Yo, there's definitely something wrong with the CCT targeting tables as my Ostwind was continuously prioritizing a CCT over some nearby infantry, making it literally impossible to micro my Ostwind while firing at the infantry.

Also, the CCT should be given the lowest priority of all Allied armor, for every AT weapon. The CCT poses no actual threat itself, while the rest of the Allied armor does. It would be stupid if Schrecks targeted infantry over vehicles, or if all Allied rifles/MGs targeted Vampire/Munitions HTs over Panzergrens. Using the CCT as a 'target priority bitch' for another tank is not only game-breakingly stupid and earth-shakingly unrealistic, but tantamount to abuse of a broken game mechanic.

You read the thread yet? CCT has same priority as cromwell because it has same armour.

And unless ostwind bugged, it won't target a cromwell over infantry.

replay or didnt happen.

when I test it ostwind picks infantry over CCT even while it was shooting at CCT before and rifles are at long range, CCT short range.

is it really that big of a deal to have a 5 page thread over? If someone expertly uses their cct to screen for the FF so it doesn't get hit or to draw atg fire, kudos to them!

are you going to want bikes and jeeps n stuff to get lower priorities as well when they make your atg fire at it? If 2 things have similar priorities, as shermans and croms do, then whatever the atg or tank fires at first it will continue to fire at.

[Katusha]

No I don't mind drawing the first ATG shot, I just want the pak/at weapon to switch to the firefly once it comes into sight, mr. pro atg shot drawer guy!

[Tymathee]

this is a micro intensive game. L2changetargets or L2holdfire

pak38 has same priorities vs

bren, churchill, crom, greyound, m10, m3, pershing, priest and sherman

soo...yeah.

[CrazyWR]

well it needs to move sherman up in front of cromwell tbh.

[Tymathee]

oh, but its okay for brens and greyhounds to be lower? this includes stags and stuarts

[Smokaz]

Goddamit. How hard is it to understand why the CCT having priority in terms of other armor is a bad thing, and a advantage to the british player?

- Priority functions automatic, creates alot of retargeting micro for the opposing player while forcing minimal amounts for the CCT-owning players.
- CCT is TOUGH as nails for its price, and its vet caters to surviability only?
Therefore its a great thing for the british player to be abe to auto-trick the axis into shooting the CCT a few times.

However, its a pretty minor issue. Still a good change though.

[Tymathee]

to me its not that big of a deal since the FF is such a glass cannon.

This "issue" has been around since the brits were introduced, why is it such a big deal now?

[AmPM]

Because ablative armor hull down firefly is glass? Even the normal Firefly is a tough tank to crack since you should rarely land a shot on it. Also, it dies one shot earlier than a sherman vs P4, STuG, PaK. Not a lot faster like the glasscannon M10/M18/STuG/Tet etc.
