Eastern Front 1.30 Patch

Somewhat humorously, after keeping an eye on this all of today I'm going out in a bit and so look likely to miss the release. Still, it should be here waiting for me when I get back, right? :)

Can't wait Can't wait Can't wait!

What do you all say we all play 1 last game of 1.21! Hosting now!

I think we all should play a 1.3 celebrating/one year EF match together ;)

Sorry devs but 'Danko isn't name
It's family name :)

What do you mean, like a surname?

Soldiers can be referred to by their last name when being order, I'd think it'd happen more often then, "Yuri! Man that flak 88!

Actually, Danko's name is Ivan and not Yuri  ;D
Major Ivan Danko - adapted from a movie whose name I forgot (Danko's actor is Arny Schwarzenegger xD) and made to EF's main character, you also see him in main menu of EF. By the way.. will there be an Ostheer counterpart to Major Danko?

The movie's name is "Red Heat"

Sure, he's name is Günther. He's the old German guy on the main menu.

Yeah that was it's name. Thanks.
But let's return to on-topic.

Rizz, do you have a new ETA for us?

20ish mins, a little [IP address redacted] patch is released at the same time, adding 2 missing files. I had them so I didn't notice it didn't work ;)

Thanks a lot!

Funny, I was about to put Ivan but changed my mind. I just put a random common Russian male name.

so i'll probably be able to play 1.3 before it's even the 22nd ^^

It's gonna be really tight for us. One hour left of 21^st xD

Edit:

Due to some FTP problems... We cannot add it... I'll give dl links in a second...

F5 F5 F5....

i already got the EF launcher started! c'moooooonn!  ;D

hurayyyy another update and with a bonus, patch :P
great job guys.

Hurrrrrrray up! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Dis is rly tight shit man.  8)
But only 21,2 kbps? Looks like heavily overloaded  :o

oh shit the forum's glitchin' on me! why now? xD
it's all white and every button is mixed up what the fuzz..

It's capacity is at the limit bro ;)

Wow, thats actually a great update. The RMC is really cool, though the tech costs seem a little bit high at first it is ok.
A big compliment for the bugfree RMC, at least it seems so to me after 2 games.
2 things I noticed with the Sowjets:
*The Penal troups have not the execution-fire-up ability anymore --> intended?
*The recrew thing works but with some drawbacks...
  The member count of the team and the helath bar is messed up
  and the unit picure is also a different one, but it works as it should...

just downloaded 1.3, but i cant find 2p Duclair?

In download (41%)  8) 8)

Me neither, can't find Duclair (2), nor "Egletons" (2) nor "Dom Pavlova" (4) nor Psel either. otherwise...
THANK YOU !

Overall a good patch. Though ive noticed that when you play as soviets and youll upgrade to T-34/85 you can still build both T-34/76 and T-34/85, which is strange. In addition to that, when you choose Breaktrough strategy you can call both the 700mp Tank raiders with T-34/76 and the 800mp Tank raiders with T-34/85. Is it a bug or is it intended?

Is something desired ;), but about the production I don't know. :-\

Hi guys thank for this incommensurable patch, silly question but I can't find Egletons (2) map.

it´s not a bug.

Another strange thing is that tank hunters cant recrew heavy weapons.
KV2 can now be build in middle game, but i thought it´s a late game unit.
But overall a good patch! Dankov with MG42  ;D

Well if its not a bug, then honestly i think it was better in pre-1.30. It doesnt make sense, why would one want to call /76 when he can call the /85 version of T-34. Its same as when you play as US and research the 76mm upgrade for M4s and youll still be able to build the outdated and outpowered 75mm...IMO very strange.

Having both, allows us to increase price AND power of the /85, else we need to keep the price more or less the same.

Well, that I can buy both Versions is a deal.
You can buy what you need and can afford at the moment.
And it also differs from the Sherman-upgrade...

Wooooo! SAS rulez!  :D 8)

I've just tried only RMC, Soviets not yet.
Like others, I can't see some maps.

Anyway, good patch and good work. ;)

PS Marines Sappers aren't able to repairs SAS Jeeps?

Nope it doesnt...its essentialy the same upgrade. You trade infantry firepower for better armor firepower. Its the same case for the 75mm to 76mm and /76 to /85.

@Rizz thanks for explanation.

They are able to repair jeeps, but when you lost one of them, you can repair the other one only to 50% health.

@Strayker
You missinterpreted my comment

I meant, that it differs in the it is conducted.
After the upgrade you can only buy the 76mm sherman, but you can buy both t34...

Why do the sappes where whool hat and no helmet, a helmet would suit much more to them...  :-\

No, you can repair it to full, which is 50% of squad health.

Well thats basically what i meant...

1.302 out, activates the missing maps.

THANK YOU FOR THE RMC (sorry, but yes, that had to be put in Caps). The faction absolutely rocks. :D

It was a balance change for the penal troops. They are now unsuppressable instead, making them easier to use

T34/76 and T34/85 are now very different tanks in ability and cost which is why you can build both of them. It's not like the sherman where you make the upgrade and the cost of the tank itself remains the same.

Thanks for answer  and big thank you for the work :) SAS Raiders are great !!

Thanks devs that's a nice patch.

Rizz I respect you because you uploaded the patch the whole night don't you? :D

Yeah RMC truly rocks and details when you zoom on it are beautiful.

Thank again for this great patch!

Tested RMC a few rounds now and there's something I have to say besides that it is great - M10 Achilles damage vs. buildings is much to high in my opinion. A few shots and a building is down.

excellent idea!

Lets go since we are all online!

I like new ISU-152- it's able to destroy building and heavy tanks very quickly- just after shot use barrage, ad when barrage ends, our Big Assault Gun is able to deliver almost-instantly normal shot!

And RMC- They have much more power than old brits- SAS Riders are very powerful and recon jeeps are able to win easly with PE grens!
