Scout car actually does not do too bad since the new patch moved guards/shocks to 2cp again...

Not to mention that Scout car HP is very low and its damage against snipers is poor.

That would be great if Relic increase MP cost of scout car and increase the damage against snipers in order to be able to kill them with 2-3 burst from far distance. that would make snipers retreat.


Is that possible? I was under the impression that everything was just as it appears, no modifiers or hidden advantages from one unit to the next. Like in CoH, Combat Engineers could beat Panzer Grenadiers, but Panzer Grenadiers could still take on Riflemen effectively. I don't think you can do that in CoH2, specific Armour types seem to have been removed in favour of a flat number system.

It should be possible. Without this kind of modifiers, it will be impossible to balance the game or make it less dependant on RNG.
It is supposed that Coh2 was going to be better than Coh1... If what you are telling me is true... this game is more likely to Starcraft2 instead of Coh1

Research AT nade easily, and there you go. You have mobile light-anti-scout cars-halftracks

Sure. But still it was way worse before.

Great idea! and it would allow the 221/222 and M3 to get some changes!



would absolutely love to see this unit as a counter to soviets being op in general

Would it be possible to exchange the AC for Ost with a unit in T1 to give them a way to stop multiple sniper spam (maybe move mortar to T2 or sniper)? The cost on the AC could remain unchanged forcing the Ost player to slow tech to T2 and therefore lmg's as a tradeoff. In addition, it would still allow snipers but punish multiple snipers since without conscripts in support it would be easy pickings. It would also give the AC more use since its window of usefulness would be wider without being OP.

Another option new commander with Schwimwagen at 0cp, only $10. :)

More pay2win? ffs just replace T1 Mortar with SC as you said and everything will be fine I think.

How about fake grenadiers? You could put one up in the middle of Langraskaya, can't detect them as fake unless up close, sniper takes shots, you can countersnipe or flank as you so desire.

I'm only semi-kidding. I think it's pretty broken and hard to fix given how they designed the snipers. You need to get lucky or have the Soviet player screw-up, that's all there is to it.

The halftrack is the only thing that will let you stay on the field and fight.

Scout car in T1 would need fuel cost increase, otherwise it will be spammed and force conscripts off the field before AT nades can be upgraded. Remember the PE scout car spam patch in vCOH? It was a good time.

Why not just increase MP to 200 or so? and keep the fuel at 20?

And of course more health I guess

Scout car should be faster, have the health of a P4, and be one shot kill with the auto cannon upgrade.

I would not be against a slight price increase if AC was moved to T1, that would help prevent spamming and always forcing Soviets to go guards.

Soviet sniper -> star wars...

Oh and that car with bi turbo V12 of the soviet's, in real word they don't make nothing good, but that car is for special drag race!

And they put flames, sniper's on it! Great job!
