- Reduced accuracy when LOS to target is blocked.
- Muzzle flashes now visible on client in multi-player games.
- Voice cue & message for weapon ineffective against target protection / armor only plays when target is a vehicle.
- Gunner now checks if HE for main gun is rated more highly than AP before automatically unloading HE and assuming AP will be reloaded.

Its a Beta patch.

Hello, I've been thinking of buying CoI, do you get the latest version when you buy the digital download?, or do you still need to update it. I see there's no patches here... http://www.matrixgames.com/products/335/downloads/Close%20Combat%20-%20Cross%20of%20Iron or here... http://closecombat.matrixgames.com/CoI/coimods.html

I not looking for beta's.

[schrecken]

You get the latest version as there are no patches for CoI

[Digs]

Ok, thank's Schrecken.  

[Dundradal]

I think most people do play it with the beta patch installed though. Well at least those people I've been playing with.

[Digs]

Good to know Dundradal, has there been any news on a none beta patch?. Whats the name for those again?, I forget - is it "point release".

[Digs]

Will I be able to use mods like The Eastern Front if I install patch version 3.51b?.

[Dundradal]

Did you find the patch?

[Digs]

Yes, I knew it was here at CCS but I was trying to find it at Matrix Games, they have the beta's for WaR and TLD but not for CoI.

Edit: I found it here in the Matrix Games forums... http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2283793

[Digs]

Do the vehicles skate like in the CC3 Trial?, or has this been fixed.

[schrecken]

All mods here http://closecombat.matrixgames.com/CoI/coimods.html   should still work fine with the beta patch installed.

[Digs]

Good news, thanks.

[Digs]

What about WaR, I've been holding off installing mods because I'm waiting for the new patch to come out. Will mods need to be uninstalled because of the new version, or will they be fine?.

[schrecken]

It depends on what is in the WaR patch that is released.

For the moment the mods work fine.

[schrecken]

I believe they are trying to protect themselves by having their thickest armour face the enemy

[Dundradal]

I understand that, but when the gun is aimed at an enemy it shouldn't start turning until after it's fired that first shot.
