The AT rockets fire at a reasonable velocity, the bren feels fluid and more useable, the Mp40 seems to have a cool new animation when proning, I've been encountering groups of soldiers (and advancing in groups) more often with the spawn waves, and the new map is fantastic.

Thanks for this gift of love devs.

My favorite thing is that I can actually play all of the maps now without crashing.

LMG change, I am so happy. I shot 2 squads attacking our Panzers with MG34. Panzerschreck feels really good aswell. Those are my favs. Though MG42 feels kinda odd, maybe the way it recoils could be changed to make it feel like it would shoot faster than MG34. Still AWESOME.

But I also like PEB, at first I really wasn't interested in it at all, but now its my favorite infantry map. I really like how big role the Sherman has cause of no spawnable at kit. Map is also really beautiful and is pretty big also, first I thought it would be size of "the Cretan map where Gebrisjäger attack from the mountains".

I really like how uniquely PEB plays.

It is large, so youre not stuck in the same areas, but still traversable by foot
The push mode keeps the fighting concentrated, but there are two avenues of attack = options
The two push corridors are joined at the front rather than the back; interesting difference
The flag zones are close quarters
The region in between flags is a mix of close-medium range
The hills/hedgerows surrounding PEB and the separating waters of the port provide long range encounters
Few tanks, few pickup AT kits, but lots of satchels, so infantry-tanks are symbiotic
Beautiful map as a whole
Variation in the layout of the city, the statics, and the trenches outside the city

If I were to describe the feel at this point, I would say the fighting feels like Bardia, but the flags are capped much differently.
