  Final Stand Hot Fix - 2.5.2

  Hot Fix 2.5.2Final StandFinal Stand Perk save data now shares/uploads to Steam Cloud saves. Players should now be able to change computers and have their Final Stand data transfer with themFor base Company of Heroes 3 owners, mods applied in other game modes will no longer affect the Final Stand gameRemoved a hole in the soft map edge on Qattara Depression - this was causing enemy units to "enter" the playable area and become trapped in an out-of-bounds regionA.I. & GameplayFixed several crashes around A.I. behavior and missing null pointersHeavy Machine Guns controlled by the A.I. in Final Stand will now prioritize infantry over the lane emplacementsFixed an issue with the A.I. idling Kettenkrads on the mapA.I. armored vehicles will no longer fallback or issue move commands when attacked by non-vehicles on first contactFixed the Demolish Charge and M6 Anti-Tank mines not being unlocked for the US Forces Rifleman, Engineer, and Bazooka squads after upgrading Demolitions Package from the Infantry Support CentreArtFixed a tinting issue causing US Paratrooper HMG team helmets to appear as a default grey/white textureNew Known IssuesEnemy bosses may get stuck in the out-of-bounds area of a Battleground. This is more common with long-range artillery bosses such as the Wespe. This will require additional work to adjust A.I. logic and will need more rigorous testing from our team before implementing a fix. While we work to address this, as a workaround we recommend withdrawing your units closer to your HQ to force the enemy to move in-bounds to reach its maximum weapon range.

  Final Stand Co-Op Hot Fix Incoming

  We want to thank all our players for jumping into Final Stand on day one! We're excited to finally be able to share this experience with all of you. We greatly appreciate all your feedback today on the co-op experience in Final Stand.  We've heard the requests from players to introduce a matchmaking system to Final Stand. With all the difficulty levels, faction options (for both players and enemy A.I.), and Battleground picks – this would create a subpar matchmaking experience and lead to incredibly long queue times. We felt to retain the best possible player experience, we would pursue a traditional lobby system.  In the next few days, we plan to add the ability for players to browse a list of public Final Stand lobbies or create your own (private/public) game lobby to be able to play Final Stand with any other player. This approach provides players with more control over their co-op experience by being able to review selected maps and difficulty and being able to chat in the lobby with your co-op partner before jumping into the match.  Our goal is to release a hot fix with this change as soon as possible. Stay tuned to our social channels and Relic Discord to find out when this update is ready. For additional technical support or to report bugs, please reach out to our support team here https://help.relic.com/  The Relic Team
