General Information


Thread: Tuning Pack OKW P418 Jul 2015, 09:38 AM I never really saw the need for a "generalist" tank for OKW, if you're really hurting for fuel, risk the Puma or just live with Volksblob until you can get Panther/ KT. That it's "generalist" pretty much means it'd be either too expensive and people will just defer to almost every other OKW vehicle, or it's too effective and replaces all of those vehicles. IMO OKW was never really "generalist" by design, and either way the closest you had to an all-round good unit was Volks or Panther, and the Panther was at least expensive whereas Volks you need to constantly spend manpower which may drain teching or vehicles. In fact I'd go as far as to say the bigger reason for such changes is more to artificially breathe new life into the game more so than ironing out issues. Switch a unit from DLC to core and suddenly it's like they made a new game! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Patch July 21st preview with Dusty and Luvnest14 Jul 2015, 09:55 AM The primary focus of the July 21st update is to continue the design upgrade of the existing factions to improve the overall balance of all factions in preparation for the introduction of the British Forces. This is the second phase migration of changes seen in the British Forces Alpha. That's rich. In: Lobby
Thread: British Forces features14 Jul 2015, 09:45 AM The last time a product by SEGA released on Sept 3rd it was a flop in terms if bugs and features. Of course it was a smashing success if you looked at the number of duped customers alone. In: Lobby
Thread: When will relic fix the FHQ...13 Jul 2015, 17:46 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Jul 2015, 04:17 AMBudwise It's a poorly designed ability for 2 reasons. 1) you can't decap it 2) it's instant Actually IMO it's more like 1) It's one of two abilities that, out of every other ability, you can do it in netural/ enemy territory (the other being Volks Panzerschreck) 2)Entirely map dependent, even more so than ambient building unit call-ins. Jump back to quoted post13 Jul 2015, 05:05 AMIntelligence209 I have a feeling if they change it in anyway, such as remove the insta build in neutral territory, the commander will become non existent. They would have to add a buff, such as being able to produce units or become a FWD retreat point. I don't agree: when I first played this commander (and I played the heck out of it when I first bought it), I never even noticed the fact that you didn't have to capture the territory first. The strategy still works, but of course not as effective because it was entirely defensive in nature. I also don't think this is a very common commander either, it's got only one doctrinal unit (the worst AT gun in this game), and the FHQ costs 60 fuel to use, already a hefty sum. It's also pretty much a commander you use as part of a larger team for best effect, so that you actually have Guards Shocks or USF Riflemen to benefit from the nearby buffs. A major parked at a FHQ is effective, you just need a smart USF player. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: When will relic fix the FHQ...12 Jul 2015, 10:30 AM 4v4, so they will take a long time to fix it. Hell, it would take a long time for them to even acknowledge that it needs examination. Gotta focus on the British faction and them mocaps, right? In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Artillery Officer Veterancy 6 Jul 2015, 20:55 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Jul 2015, 17:23 PMVuther Wait, really? Well at the very least one weapon, I do that whenever I choose that commander, especially if it's a long range weapon like bazooka or PTRS, which allows the Sturmoffizier to remain engaging at long range while your other units are closer to the fight. I find that when the Sturmoffizier is taking hits, it's almost always going to kill the officer first, which then induces a retreat. Giving him such weapons keeps the squad farther away. Of course, none of this happens with the Arty officer, then again you don't have the problem of forced retreat if he dies. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Katyusha was really like?5 Jul 2015, 09:10 AM It might be more realistic, but frankly suppression would be unnecessary, it's large spread of rockets already causes problems to the enemy, making their infantry unable to respond to anything during and afterwards would be ridiculous. You'd have to AT LEAST compensate by allowing all artillery units to do the same. The very threat of squad wipes from multiple rockets in successive barrages is already enough "fear" element to the unit. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Artillery Officer Veterancy 5 Jul 2015, 09:03 AM His unit design is clearly the support/ caster unit type, and naturally his veterancy reflects that. SOmeone can mod that, can't they? Annihilation mod added vet5 to all units, and I use a mod that lets the arty officer use Forward Retreat like the USF major, nifty for those large 4v4 maps. Wished there was a Soviet equivalent though. As for OKW's Sturmoffizier. I preferred if his veterancy increased the squads durability. e doesn't need stacked aura bonuses, that would just make him the same as Command Panther and end up diluting both units' uniqueness, and it's not like either commander are DLC/ War Spoils dropped unlocks either. IMO SturmOffizier vet should make him meatier so that he can be used closer to the fight while still retaining some risk in a forced retreat. Also, Sturmoffizier squad can pick up two weapons, whereas Ostheer's arty officer cannot. In: COH2 Gameplay
