Thread: Do Tigers really need Blitzkrieg?19 Aug 2014, 18:06 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 18:02 PMelchino7 @Cannonade Blitzkrieg Blitzkrieg enabled German armor to escape potentially deadly situation at a fairly low cost. This placed German armor in a very advantageous position relative to Soviet armor, as they could take greater risk while sustaining lower casualties on average. Other issues, such as awkward movement behavior or unrealistic accuracy, made the ability feel a bit cheap and magical. This change synergizes well with the recent modifications to acceleration, as vehicles will be far more responsive while the ability is active. Now provides 1.6x acceleration Received accuracy modifier from 0.5 to 0.75 Speed and accuracy modifier removed Munition cost from 40 to 30 Then we had Blitzkrieg Now adds a speed maximum modifier by 1.5 Duration decreased from 20 seconds to 15 seconds After that With the changes to Blitzkrieg providing max speed we felt that it was a change going into the right direction however we did see some unrealistic speeds achieved by medium tanks on roads. By reducing the max speed modifier we still achieve the intention of the change while maintaining realistic expectations. Blitzkrieg Maximum Speed Modifier reduced from 1.5 to 1.35 Muchos gracias, senor! So yeah, as can be seen, its undergone an enormous amount of nerfing already, as an Axis ability. Now the question remains, should it simply be replaced on Tiger variants with another Axis ability, or nerfed even further again? There doesn't seem to be all that much space left for nerfing it, and that would affect all Blitz vehicles, not just Tigers. In: COH2 Balance

Unfortunately, either of those is infact what many here have said they wanted. I mean, thats just a plain fact of record and clear from the posts in the thread by some people. Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 17:51 PMilGetUSomDay It just needs to be adjusted. Napalm already posted Relic's response to my post on the official forums as to why it got changed in the first place. Yep. Either adjusted somehow (either to only Tiger Variants, or all Blitz vehicles), or replaced with another Axis ability. Perhaps a Blitz that scales according to the vehicle class? Though I think that would be complicated to code, cos it would mean tons of different "Blitz" codes, rather than one universal one. In: COH2 Balance

Extracting Statistics Guide I asked for someone to do it who knows how, or who knows the stats already. Not to post a complex guide on how to do it. But thanks, I guess. Sort of missed the point, but whatever. I guess its the thought that counts. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Do Tigers really need Blitzkrieg?19 Aug 2014, 17:44 PM wongtp & Katitof: Yeah, I'm not going to bite such lame bait. My post was reasonable. I asked reasonable questions. I'm not surprised you refuse to answer them reasonably, cos then you would have to admit they are reasonable. Ontopic: I don't see any point in copy/pasting Capture Point from Sov over to Axis. If Blitz is to be replaced on the Tiger variants, then it should be with an Axis ability, not an asymmetric design breaking copy/paste. So we have two options as I see it: 1) Replace Blitz on Tigers with another Axis ability OR 2) Adjust Blitz stats either specifically and only on Tigers (if possible), or across all Blitz using units.

Thread: Do Tigers really need Blitzkrieg?19 Aug 2014, 17:29 PM Why Capture Point? Why identical to Sov? Why not Target Weakspot for example? Wouldn't it make sense for an axis ability on an axis unit, rather than destroying asymmetric balance and difference by copy/pasting from opposing faction? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Do Tigers really need Blitzkrieg?19 Aug 2014, 17:25 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 17:22 PMilGetUSomDay My earlier post suggested that it should go back to being acceleration buff. Do you happen to know the exact stat modifiers for Blitzkrieg as they are right now? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Do Tigers really need Blitzkrieg?19 Aug 2014, 17:20 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 17:15 PMilGetUSomDay Now back on topic How does not having blitz make it unfair? 2 whole factions get along without blitz using their tanks, I see no reason for a get outta jail free card to be given to the biggest baddest tank out there. How would it be fair if Tigers had NO Vet ability? In: COH2 Balance

Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 16:50 PMThe_rEd_bEar Insulting my intelligence isn't going to prove your point. I explained the simple logic. No need to get personally defensive about it. Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 16:50 PMThe_rEd_bEar That fact still stands, Soviet infantry are inferior and to remedy that people use maxims. Except thats not a fact. Units are abused, because they overperform. Any and all other units, even if perfectly balanced, seem "useless" when compared to it, by the simple fact that it overperforms (which leads to abuse). Its not in dispute that some Sov infantry is potentially underperforming. But that doesn't change the ontopic issue that maxims are OVERperforming. Both need adjusting, where necessary, but one is not a result of the other, nor is the over/underperformance of either, related to the other, just to themselves. In: COH2 Balance
