I want to ensure we have a 100% decision on the process before we do the wipe.
If not, then I wipe, then someone gets something they shouldn't, then it gets abused, then the shit hits the fan and then I ban shab.

Well done! Is there a wipe as well? Also, did you get a chance to upload the new maps?

I'm skeptical of geshutz nerf.

An across the board acc nerf vs tanks and inf is too broad. The nerf should have been more focused on its AI effectiveness. As it stands now, it still has the capacity to kill both vehicles and inf, albeit at a slightly lower rate. I thought the idea was to keep hard lines between units being able to do both AT and AI? Not only that, but it still keeps a free suppressing MG? At least make it purchasable, since everything else is.

I really like a lot of these changes, good job team!

The Sniper cloak change is something I've literally been asking for for years, glad to see it finally become a reality.

4p_deutsche_reichsbahn
4p_Operation_Martlet
4p_The_Causeway
6p_villas
6p_Somewhere_in_Normandy

Feedback on these maps:

1. Operation Martlet: Excellent map. No major pathing issues, reasonable size for a 2v2. Dynamic terrain, allows for flanking or head on assaults. Easily joins ranks of Neunen, Church, In Der Hitz as a 2v2 map.

2. Deutsche Reichsban: Absolute Garbage Fire of a map. Tons of pathing issues, some questionable sectoring, limited flanking options due to terrain. Terrain is not dynamic (Its there for show rather than gameplay)

3. The causeway: No major pathing issues(other than swamps), reasonable size and the center is well constructed. However, there are multiple marshes and lakes/water bodies in what are heavy play area's. Its like if you took 2v2 neuville, but spliced in bastion on the left and right flanks. Overall not impressed, but salvageable with some work.

4. Villas: Very large map, but poorly reflects realities of EIR gameplay. All fighting basically gets funneled into 3 lanes with minimal cover. Leads to very slow and grindy gameplay with limited flanking opportunities due to how little cover is available through these 3 lanes. Would be a good map if someone was willing to go in and rework the map to be more dynamic.

5. Somewhere in Normandy: Its fine. Not going to be taking over mantle of best 3v3 map from gems like Neuville, Monte, Deserted Village etc, but I have no issue playing it in most cases (very 88 friendly though). Good tanteville alternative.

Thanks, keep the feedback coming. I can spend some time fixing these, as well as some of the maps that were taken out but could be made playable with some fixes.
