[REQUIRES COMPANY OF HEROES PATCH 2.602]
Eastern Front Patch 1.60

Eastern Front Patch 1.60
'(Re)Union'
Eastern Front Fans,
Patch 1.600 is now released! After a vast amount of discussing, debating and arguing over these six months, we've made more then 600 changes to Eastern Front that we hope you'll enjoy:
- First of all, there is no more munitions upkeep... yes you read it correctly - no more munitions upkeep for Soviet Light vehicles, Weapon teams or Tanks, meaning that you will not get +0 munition income when you already own sectors producing the munitions resource.
- Second, abilities now cost munitions. Once the upkeep was abolished, the next step was to set up a munitions cost for every ability. Hope you enjoy spending your hard earned munitions now.
- Third, almost every single map featured in Eastern Front was reworked, and while they can still be changed in the future to make them even more balanced, we hope you like them, specially the new Zhytomyr and Berlin maps.
- Fourth, Soviet balance was hit hard, after hundreds of games there is a larger list of balance changes, bug fixes and changes than in the previous major patch; also, several 2D/3D art elements were tweaked in order to make them feel more like a Relic faction, let alone that it plays more balanced than before.
- Fifth, Jagdtiger is back as reward unit of the Jagdpanther and Shtrafnie Troops are back as support unit for the Red Tide.
This update is the result of six months hard work and is probably going to be one of the biggest updates ever made for the Soviets, so we hope you like it. Remember to check the changelog to know what has been changed since the last version. We also have some other goodies for you:
- Cranialwizard, one of the members of our Balance Team, has finished his Guide for Eastern Front which will surely help new players to familiarize themselves with the Eastern Front content.
- Rizz has made a web guide for the Soviet units on Eastern Front, it contains the main features of each unit like population costs, reinforcement costs and among other properties that an average player would appreciate.
- Rizz finished a chatbox add-on for the launcher, you can use it by clicking the button next to "Check for Updates". You need an EF Forum account in order to use it.
- Eastern Front now has support for Simplified Chinese texts, support that was supposed to be released two patches ago (our apologies), so the player can choose if he want to use Traditional or Simplified Chinese translations. You can download the installer from here.
We also have some additions to the Team and promotions:
- EvilSpike was promoted to Developer and is helping us in the 2D department, a lot of the new 2D art included in this patch was made by him.
- Maxiking was promoted to Head Mapper(or Vice-Head Mapper ?) and is helping us to improve Eastern Front maps.
- Walki was promoted to Developer and is helping us with 3D art and animations.
- Ellipirelli joined to the team and is helping us in the 3D department and animations.
- Celéstial returned to the team as Developer and is helping us in the Balance and 2D department, several new 2D art included were made by him.
Special Thanks to:
- The players that still play Eastern Front and have waited all these months for the new version.
- The Balance Team for helping us along the road with Eastern Front.
- Our community mappers that create awesome maps for Eastern Front.
- Our forum users at EasternFront.org for reporting balance issues and bugs.
- Translators for helping us with the different locales, the majority of them are really fast and proffessional guys.
- Anders Lejczak for his great ME262 model(brought to EF thanks to Walki).
- [RED-SQ]Cpl.Manu{DRG} for sharing his sound for the Scoped SVT40.
Our life would've been much harder without them .
Remember to report the bugs you find in the Bugs & Tech Support section and the balance issues on the Balance Discussion at our forum.
Thanks for downloading and continue to enjoy,
Eastern Front Development Team

Can this mod also be used for Company of heroes Original?

As long as it is patched to 2.602 it should works.

I love this!!. new updates for the red army,

i made sceenshot of it Moddb.com
hope you like it EF team. :D
I saw those on DeviantArt, they'd been added to the 'Tank Attack' group. Nice to see you're enjoying the new patch :)
oh. thats my account on Deviantart. im a recently member of tankAttack group. Good to know your into deviants. :D
Fantastic Mod!
Best mod of the World !
Yes i agree very best mod, but i think soviet tank's armor is weaker than before.
My game just crashed whenever I load a save game? Pls help! I really liek this mod! Also sometimes when I save the game and pressed Exit to Windows it also crashes!
And now is the Ostheer in it?
Does it say anywhere that the Ostheer is in this patch? TLDR... no.
deinstall first than install again my game was first too !!!
Was looking to download and was redirected to gamefront where it was listed as unavailable. Any help would be appreciated. Your mod looks amazing
How do I install it on the Steam version there seems to be no tutorials on how install any mods at all for the Steam version? :(
Just bought the complete pack (my last cdkey was taken away and they banned my account including suspending my keys so....) and you just have to set the target where it goes to E:\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes
so luchs and this bulding it will be in next patch ? i can get it right now?:]
No, Ostheer will be included in patch 2.0!
Hi. i've been having problem with EF mod.... it would seem i can only play as the soviet in 1vs1, and most maps will crash when it loads about 3/4 of the way. pls help!!!
Okay there is a problem, which is annoying... Any other person here using a registry cleaning program may encounter the problem, specifically TuneUp Utilities, 2011 and 2012 edition possible the older ones too. The problem is when you do the clean up it deletes something which links the eastern front launcher to the game itself; thus giving you the; Game not installed! error. Is there any way to fix that problem or release a better standalone mirror, the one from moddb is soooooooo slow for some people. Or at least a manual updates from 1.6.0+ to try and fix the problem.
i used to play this fine then one day it just ceaps coming up saying "Eastern Front Launcher has stopped working" as i start up the launcher,whats going on???
oh,just found out that it might be because of downloading modern combat,i have deleted all of the DOCs from this mod and still cant start up eastern front without it saying "Eastern Front Launcher has stopped working"
Download speed FTW...
ım always install this mod always never install error why *_
Hey guys Relics is making a new sequel called Company of Heroes 2 and it is taking place in Eastern Front! Its due to release 2013!!!! Man, I love both the up-coming game and the Mod!!!
Thanks for your support, however we already know about Company of Heroes 2. If you want to discuss with us about it check this thread:
Easternfront.org
it's basicly the the mod but just as epic with campaign a complete version
Plz Help me guys.....Why can i play Whit Soviet Union..? in Skirmish? single player...?
SAME HERE :(
You'll need to be a little more specific. If the faction is locked, it's because you need to update CoH to patch 2.602.
How do we know if our game has been patched to 2.602?
Bottom center of the main menu is a number that says "2.602"
I just downloaded it but i don't see any soviets on my game ;_;
'This is caused by using an unsupported patch (a patch before 2.602). Please update to the latest patch (2.602).'

How to install it for steam? if possible?
Yes it works, I use Steam and have no troubles. Install it to your root CoH directory which should by default be 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes'... and also make double sure you select this path under 'CoH Directory' in Settings on the EF launcher.
I have a problem, when I open My EF launcher it always says: "Could not connect to the server to check for new updates" Help, I need the latest version (v1.61) of the game!!
Need to re download...again because I just installed win7 ultimate 64 bit :D
I dont know if thats importent but, did anyone notice that the tracks of the russian tanks arent moving?
Downloading...
