"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?..The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and... the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough...We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

Thread: Upgunning the soviets - the IS-2 6 Dec 2021, 18:16 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Dec 2021, 16:02 PMEsxile I tend to not compare units in a vacuum. Their IA dps is probably the same in average but they don't belong to the same faction and not facing the things. I'll not say that gut feeling is better metric than average but there are hidden reasons you don't see the IS2 as often as the Tiger nowaday even if their average IA dps are the same. So, even considering there are less Commanders with the IS2 than there are with Tigers, this doesn't work as a single explanation, there are a lot commanders with few specific units that are seen a lot more than IS2. Alright I don't mean to derail the thread here but since I already said something on topic I hope you'll oblige me. Anyways, I know British people and others outside the US say IA instead of AI for bots (Intelligent Adversary VS. Artificial Intelligence) but what do you mean using IA instead of AI when referring to performance against infantry? Anti-Infantry versus what exactly? Infantry Attack? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Upgunning the soviets - the IS-2 5 Dec 2021, 01:29 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Dec 2021, 00:47 AMVipper If you opponent build a KT maybe you should try building a TD... And herein lies the problem, metaphorically speaking. IS-2 is definitely a good tank, but I think it just runs into the old 4v4 problem of AT saturation. You can use IS-2 as a breakthrough tank... in 1v1. (2s and 3s also maybe but idk). But not 4v4, because there is almost certainly death awaiting you. Same goes for KT and Tiger of course. ISU is basically the dedicated soviet 4v4 heavy tank. IS-2 just gets outshined. That's fine. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Thoughts on M18 Hellcat?2 Dec 2021, 15:11 PM I don't know. I mean theoretically it's the perfect counter to a turtling opponent. Cheap AT tank that can be artillery with vet. The big issue is the lower HP and exact same range like was mentioned earlier. EDIT: Also that "long range ambush" ability extends the range, though I haven't been able to make good use of it because I tend to see P4 spam from my friends I play customs with haha.

Thread: Thoughts on M18 Hellcat?2 Dec 2021, 10:49 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Dec 2021, 01:57 AMcomm_ash They also lack even enough pen to pen the front of a P4 consistently This, I think, would be forgivable so long as the Hellcat can pen side armor easier. All things considered, front armor is now roughly 25% or less of what you can actually hit on a tank. Also, is it just me or do rear armor hits seem to do extra damage? In: COH3 Central
Thread: Thoughts on M18 Hellcat?30 Nov 2021, 19:32 PM So far, I've been using it and it seems kinda lackluster/ unreliable against P4s. Additionally, supposedly the Tiger really does a number on them. Someone better at the game than me care to enlighten me on how I'm using them wrong or are they actually a bit lacking?

Thread: Could Officer squad have weapon upgrade？28 Nov 2021, 13:49 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2021, 21:06 PMVipper Luger loses most of DPS above range 10 and contributes very little at long range so it does not have good synergy with K98 which has good long range DPS. The XP value of officer is 780 the second highest in game which higher than even shock troops and rangers. Ah. When you said "synergy", I thought you meant in a positive way. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Could Officer squad have weapon upgrade？27 Nov 2021, 14:03 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2021, 10:03 AMVipper ...main issues is the synergy of luger and K98 and the high XP value... How so? I've never heard it mentioned before. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Penals AT satchel on cooldown. 23 Nov 2021, 20:13 PM What kind of silliness is this? Should we force Sturmpios and Panzergrens to assemble their Panzershrek after upgrading because I was trying to bully them with my t70 and all of a sudden their weapon upgrade finished? In: COH2 Balance
