"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: Why is the Maxim so bad?16 Feb 2022, 18:18 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Feb 2022, 18:12 PMApplejack I lost some brain cells reading this Honestly I can't figure out what's so wrong with the post it made you "lose brain cells". I think it's a pretty reasonable comment. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Has anyone noticed Grenadiers are really good?16 Feb 2022, 18:14 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Feb 2022, 17:26 PMFelixTHM ...as a faction it is super difficult for low-skill players to play since most USF units require significant user input to utilise effectively. Can confirm: am low skilled, started COH2 playing USF and had a hard time every game. SOV is more forgiving, fun, and it has more commander options to boot. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why is the Maxim so bad?16 Feb 2022, 18:06 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Feb 2022, 16:55 PMVipper Katakov is simply laying. Doubt if I ever used the term "offensive mg" once and I certainly did not come up or made it up with it. No harm, no foul. I was just making a joke anyways. I personally would call it an "offensive MG" simply because it's so shit at defense. I mean what else can it be at that point? In: COH2 Balance

Hey, hey, hey, there's nothing "made up" about the term. Cut Vipper some slack here. Maxim is very much an "offensive" MG. As in, it's so bad it's offensive to me. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Pioneers - the biggest broken OST unit.16 Feb 2022, 13:39 PM You're completely missing the point about cons btw. He's talking about soviet players using oorah to flank the MG, which pios prevent by sighting for the MG. Generally the allies outnumber the axis players with mainline infantry early on. So for a bit it's an Axis MG + pioneer fighting an engineer and a con (for example). If axis loses that engagement and has to retreat the MG, they're going to constantly be on the back foot after it because of the sheer imbalance of infantry. (pio + gren VS. con, con, engineer) That's why Axis has to have an advantage in setting up the MG and spotting for it. Plus, as mentioned earlier, they've got 4 man squads that they's otherwise have to check for MGs with their face. And here's the thing about allies not having as much sight for their MGs: when you start getting fired at, you're too far into the arc to just run back out. Consider it a blessing if the Axis player only shoots at you from max range, you get to keep your unit on the field and plan a counterattack. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Pioneers - the biggest broken OST unit.16 Feb 2022, 13:23 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Feb 2022, 21:08 PMRiley "They give sight so it can be setup aggressivel" Did you mean firing from the fog of war at the very beginning of the battle, when you can't even see the mg42? I'm just gonna be the guy that points out the obvious here... unless you're on a road or something and got insta-pinned, if you're getting suppressed by an MG42 in the fog of war, you're far enough away to get out of the arc of fire by just moving backwards. You realize that right? You have the ability to disengage and come back from a different direction. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why is the Maxim so bad?13 Feb 2022, 14:42 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Feb 2022, 11:19 AMBasedSecretary The Maxim is the tool the Soviets have on locking down a sector and/or using as a force multiplier. If you suck at using it, it's not the tool's fault. Locking down a sector? Hell no. If the enemy has half a brain they can easily flank it with its shitty cone of fire and suppression. The only time it can do this job is when you've got warning of enemies coming in so you can pop Sustained Fire before they get into range. Force multiplier? Yeah sure. It can also duel MG42s which I always thought was pretty cool. In: COH2 Balance
