Sure I am, but I won't be in denial about certain infantry units and one specific upgrade.


Let me guess - fallschirmjager and panzerfusiliers and 6 g43s?:p
But what abt usa infantry..they got awesome upgrades as well..plus their own elite inf,i hope usa is good..it was my fav faction in coh 1.
I like the mobile aggressive infantry game that rifles had more than the defense oriented german style(before current grenspam),its why americans were fun to play with for me...u can't play that way with soviets due to fragility of conscripts and bad late game scalability,so soviets never appeared as attractive to me....i'm hoping usa will retain this feature.Since OKW seems to have it..i think i'm gonna enjoy both.

Obviously Ober vampire MP44, I don't like using it because luftwaffe is more handy.

It looks like a blobbing punishment device............so it's situational.




Using one of these is a micro-intensive nightmare and it requires a lot of support. And if you don't nuke everything with it, you're helpless when there's a counter-attack.

As someone else said, its the ultimate trololol unit for when you want to put two fingers up to someone you've already stomped.

Then again, it will be fun to see how people adapt it.

But at 400 mp thats not spammable,whereas panzerfuslier at 290 mp 6 men plus 6 g43s is.Add a sturmoffizer and they should be really strong.

You don't need to spam a squad that single handedly can repel whole infantry force of opponent you know.

I wonder if the Fals have had a HP boost since Alpha? They look less squishy in the videos we've seen this weekend.

290 mp for 6 G43? Now I feel bad about Gren and PzGren is even more of a joke now. Looks like cons are about to be massacred in the dozens.

The Panzerfusilier G43's are less powerful though, don't worry, they won't shred everything in their path.

So is Panzerfusilier comparable to Penals? And is the Sturmofficer's buff significant enough to offset the auto retreat if he is killed? And killed I mean only the officer dies or the whole squad got wiped?

Panzerfusilier, just suck.

They need 90 munis getting those G43 to become having some uses, but less useful than two Ostheer Gren with G43. Consider 90 munis is huge for OKW.

Eh, I think they're alright. I mean they're supposed to be slightly more powerful Osttruppen, and you have the Sturmofficer.

Odd question but to play this are we just going to log into COH2 and it will appear or will it be like playing a new game and going into a separate game?

They're probably slightly better than Volks, haven't played in a week because of the end of the alpha and I never played with Panzerfusiliers that much in the first place. I remember them being alright though. They get very good when they get G43's though.

I think it'll be the former. It'll probably work like any other CoH2 DLC where when you buy it the game 'unlocks' it.

Command posts are a lot more expensive (fuel) than I anticipated.

USF 57mm gun (notably weaker than Pak and Zis...). Bazookas should become pretty important for USF

I'm thinking that I will end up spitting my rifles into two types: 2 x bazooka and 2 x BAR.
