Greetings, Commanders!
Ok, 1.25.1 didn't work the way we've expected!
We are reverting some changes and making some tweaks to bring the PC and Android versions back in shape.
Update 1.25.2 is now available on Steam!
Balance notes:
M18 Hellcat:
- Reload time reduced from 8.5 to 7 sec.
- Horizontal spread reduced from 9 to 8
Hellcat is a glass cannon. When the cannon is slow and not too accurate, we have a problem. This update should help Hellcat to shine again!
M41 Gorilla:
- Shot damage increased from 100 to 200
- Void zone damage increased from 10 to 20
- Void zone duration decreased from 6 to 3 sec.
Gorilla was supposed to rely on the void zone damage, but it turned out that the enemies rarely keep their units in the zone for the full duration. Bumping up both direct and indirect damaged should make M41 an obviously superior choice over Priest (according to its rarity)
T25 "FOGGY"
- HP increased from 1600 to 2200
- Front armor increased from 130 to 150
- Hiring cooldown increased from 130 to 200 sec.
T25 is an overall good medium tank, however we feel like it should stand out a little bit more, being a Legendary unit. This buff does not make FOGGY the strongest unit around, but makes it more sustainable.
M8 Grayhound:
- Main cannon reload time increased from 1.5 to 3 sec.
- HP reduced from 1200 to 900
- Front, back and top armor reduced from 90 to 80
Being an uncommon unit, Hound was overperforming just way too much, often matching or even exceeding light tanks. It would still be a viable choice matching USSR and German armored cars, but would not feel as OP.
M4 Sherman:
- HP reduced from 2500 to 2000
- Front armor reduced from 170 to 130
- Back armor reduced from 140 to 130
As a rare medium tank Sherman outperformed most of the other mediums, making the alternatives quite redundant. This will make it be more in line with the rest of its class.
