Ostketten Upgrade

Ostheer Suggestions

Ostketten Upgrade

Dont know if this is already suggested but why not put Ostketten in for the Ostheer.

Ostketten was introduced in 1944 on the eastern front, extra wide tracks for panzer 3 and 4s (maybe even more different tanks)

My idea was, just an upgrade for the ostheer Panzer III and IV's to upgrade their tanks with ostketten, for increased traverse and/or accaleration.

PLs comment, im dutch dont watch my grammar...

Hello!
This was already suggested and rejected.
Cheers

Re: Ostketten Upgrade

Not even for something like improved cross country ability? For example, the Sherman vs the Panther; the Panther has far better accel/decel and maintains its speed far better than the Sherman does when those units cross through light/heavy cover; the Sherman is considerably slower when crossing shell holes from artillery strikes etc.

This might be a small unlock for whatever the offensive-focused tree is, simply conveying better stats for vehicles crossing light/heavy cover. Is there a specific reason that this was rejected?

Re: Ostketten Upgrade

So far the only thing rejected is to make new model of threads for every unit affected by this upgrade.

Also, adding this upgrade doesn't have any sense, because these bonuses are already given if you pick up one of the three vet upgrades.
