Do Paras still carry HEAT Satchels?

[stankyus]

If not, it could be a good reason to add them back in to get more use out of a breed of infantry class that is seldom used... Give us one more reason to bring them to town.

[Kilemall]

Dammit, you ruined the next Allied Tactical Studies thread.

Now I gotta actually think through stuff to get material.

[tazz]

Have them reload with 4 satchels when they drop their chute.

Actually I would like to have ML able to place a FRU with either a fixed or throttled spawn list.

Old thread, but I agree with op.

Paras only get one satchel. It should be HEAT.

Makes the para important again.

Paras need to have 1 HEAT and 1 HE charge imo; again, the game has LIMITED what players can do to the games detriment. For how long are we going to keep limiting this game instead of allowing people to play?

Keep taking away what everyone can do and there won't be anyone here to do anything; then you can make them be able to do nothing

This tree is being de limbed every upgrade, looks better, does less

[Hinfoos]

a buncha times ive taken the role as the pilot to call for paras to drop between enemy fb and town to find frus and sap tanks and such..

especially on large attacks that have seemed to be somekind of squad coop where the town have been locked down.

just grab 10 or so paras and drop them somewhere in the middle between town and fb.

...and fix the friggin axis uber grenadier who doesn't die when he blows somebody up two feet in front of his face!

[Vampress]

They need to take away the HEat satchel from the ATR and put back a seperate HEAT anti-tank infantry unit into the game

they RUINED the ATR infantry play with this BS of giving them a HEAT charge...

so stupid

Agreed on one HE, one HEAT.

[DOC]

yes, para's still carry a HEAT satchel

[company0]

So I take it that it's a bug that German Para Rifles and SMG's have the HE charges? Even in their manual listing it says Satchel Charge, not like the ATR's HEAT Charge.

Scroll down or i'll get a screenshot

[DOC]

Oh you think it's a bias thing, figures

We fix things faster if you complete testing to include all units that might be affected. Objectivity, you know ?

So, since I work from data (which says it is a HEAT satchel) and you're reporting performance to be HE, can you help us work through this faster ? I mean, if fixing is your real goal here.

+1 They need a HE and HEAT [PERIOD]

Btw they carry a HEAT on 1.34 not HE.

[lipton]

So this thread got moved to the Bug forums because 1 person claimed something was a bug? LoL Really?

[company0]

I did a quick test. If I had mentioned the ALLIED unit it might be a claim of bias, but I decided to test one unit after making a prior bug report on it about 3 patches ago. If data reports its acting as a HEAT satchel, then its just a labeling problem. Also a manual problem.

Edit: To remove any claims of Bias, I went and looked at both allied sets, the British and French SMG and Rifle paras. In their manuals, both report it as a Satchel Charge. In-game, scrolled down, both report the charge as HE.

yes really

this is the bug reporting forum

if something needs to get fixed, the fix starts here

if it doesn't need fixing, we can close the topic as need be

glad you got a laugh out of it

@company0

I can get the labeling changed easy, will take a patch cycle to see in game however. The para satchel is a HEAT satchel in data.
