Until such time as there is a public announcement indicating why a feature of the game going back at least a decade has been disabled is made, I will assume it is a bug.  No responsible business would take this extensive an action without some sort of public disclosure. Disappointing if indeed this is how it went down.

That is the word on vox.  This is Vinkman's fault.

 :rofl Didnt come off as such a BAD thing, for me! Although, I dont really see an upside for this. I get, that some dont like the M3 utilization theses days. Stopping troop delivery by M3 changes nothing, as far as I can see. To get more players in the air--one reason I heard. First experience in game after this change came about....6 players running JEEPS :x Dont think the math works out very well for the "GET em in the air" reason. Now DISABLING CARGO deliveries, as was the root of ALL EVIL lately, that could "GET EM IN THE AIR" :rofl I needed to kill an SDK for vehicle achievement anyway! :bolt:

You pay to play a game you enjoy and you do what pleases you. If they want to force some into doing what they do not enjoy, guess they will go play something they like. Giving in to a loud whiner does not seem the right way to go. Oh well, do what you must. Make the game not fun for me and I'm gone.

Two questions:

1. Who whined about the M3 troops? Can you point me to all those whines?
2. What exactly did change gameplay wise, making the game unplayable?

it is no bug, I was there as well, and since HiTech owns this game he doesn't have to tell or explain anything to us.
but he did say he was trying something out.<--- Public Disclosure was in the middle of the day in the middle of the game on 200 channel, I don't remember how many people were on but it was over 50.
you can still run supplies with the M3--you can run troops with the Sdkfz-251, Lvt-2  C47.

sounds like  SCCA thinks he has rights in this game.

What has that got to do with anything? 2 or 3,dont know, dont keep track. SDK works, jeeps? Wouldnt hamper my game play anymore than a 5 ENY would. Cant fly my spit16, there are others available. Having ord dead at bases, come from somewhere else. Doesnt effect me in such a negative way,I deal with it and carry on :D If you read whole post,it was pretty self evident as to what I meant.

It is just you are judging a part of the game you are not deeply involved in as are many others making the same judgement call.  It would be the same if I said lets do away with the Spit16 because it does not affect me in a negative way.
