"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.”

Thread: Balance thoughts?4 Mar 2023, 06:06 AM It seems that Brit AA is trash compared to the US M16 halftrack. I was thinking that relic balanced each faction to have a similarly effective counter to planes. Apparently 2 centaurs struggle to shoot down even 1 plane. I guess that's one thing that the US does better than brits at least. On a more serious note, that's even worse gameplay design than I thought. If there's no US player, then the brits are seemingly shit out of luck for AA. In: COH3 Central

Did the Axis players just not shoot it down fast enough? I know for a fact that falls do get instakilled by AA if in the wrong place at the wrong time, but I've just never seen it happen to paratroopers. In: COH3 Central

No, I didn't, I was correcting you making an erroneous claim Which was, in case you forgot: Jump back to quoted post3 Mar 2023, 20:14 PMCardboard Tank There is no counter play. Which I have proven is not the case. I already agreed with you in that it's bad game design, but the simple fact of the matter is that there IS counterplay, and it's actually very easy to do it. So why do you keep posting here about something we agree about? In: COH3 Central
Thread: Balance thoughts?3 Mar 2023, 21:51 PM If anyone here still thinks that DAK AT loiter is OP/uncounterable, then you need to watch this video: The only factions I see actually struggling against planes is maybe axis. But flak 88s actually shoot down planes so it's pretty even. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Balance thoughts?3 Mar 2023, 21:33 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Mar 2023, 21:30 PMCardboard Tank So if you are hard pressed to get out a tank you instead get out an AA first since your tank can get deleted. This equals GG the moment you need a tank. Skillplanes should not kill instanly. It is bad design. That's why my US build starts with an AA halftrack first. That's not a game issue, it's a build issue. Anyways, I still agree that it's bad design. DAK pays ~~120~~* muni for an AT loiter that gets insta-killed by one single AA track. Make AA worse in teamgames and make the AT loiter less insane. Easy fix. EDIT: *Sorry lmao, it's actually 225 muni to be hardcountered by one single AA halftrack. I was downplaying it apparently.

Thread: Balance thoughts?3 Mar 2023, 21:30 PM Now, if you want to argue how that's bad game design, that's something I can agree with. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Balance thoughts?3 Mar 2023, 21:28 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Mar 2023, 21:26 PMCardboard Tank Not having an AA unit does NOT justify deleting a tank with an ability. Making the mistake of not having AA when you know DAK AT loiter is insane does NOT equal "no counterplay". If I play with sherman 76 I would not DARE to place anything more than a single tank on the frontline without an AA halftrack. In: COH3 Central

Thread: How to "beat" the 2cm flak emplacement in teamgames3 Mar 2023, 20:31 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Mar 2023, 14:42 PMaerafield 1) Pick brits (my god, DO NOT PICK USF currently at any times at all!) and go Indian artillery doc. In the beginning you only want to build one vickers and 2 sections with a mortar (camp map) or 3 sections and a dingo (large open map). In 4v4, it's okay to have one USF, but the USF player needs to rush sherman 76 and their teammates have to cover for their ass. Apparently, the air support double strafing run will decrew then instakill the flak 36 in one callin, but you have to give up on sherman 76, which makes you useless. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Balance thoughts?3 Mar 2023, 20:29 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Mar 2023, 20:14 PMCardboard Tank Skillplanes need an immediate hotfix. You can reverse INSTANTLY when the smoke drops and your tank will still get destroyed. There is no counter play. If you use input to avoid the planes you should get away. Counterplay = M18 AA halftrack Shoots down AT loiter planes before they even fire a single shot. Even just ONE vet 0 halftrack. Now, for Axis, I don't know if they can shoot planes down THAT fast, but I know flak 88 actually shoots down planes very well. In: COH3 Central
