Small Arms Weapon Profiles

Focus on better aligning infantry small arms within our health/damage system. This reduces the amount of overkill and better enables us to control how small arms functions within the game. Generally speaking, each weapon will have the same DPS as it did prior to the change. However, the LMG42 did see a reduction to its theoretical DPS output as well as its long range DPS output to compensate for its incremental value over time.

Units and Abilities

The KV-8 has seen its damage profile adjusted such that it no longer front loads the majority of its damage over a 10 second period. This will result in more of a reaction period for players under fire. The overall DPS of the KV-8 was also reduced from 18 to 15 damage per second. Other abilities have had their cost adjusted to better reflect their value in game.


Mortar Half-track Incendiary Barrage

• Cost from 30 to 45 ammunition


KV-8

• Damage from 40 to 27
• Ready aim time from 1.5s to 0.75s
• Reload form 5s to 3s


ZIS AT Gun

• Corrected an error in previous patch; shots fired from barrage ability set back to 6.
222 Armored Scout Car
• Corrected an error in previous patch; cost set back to 80 MP and 25 FU.


Assault Grenadiers

• Assault Grenadier dispatch cost from 200 MP and 50 MU to 320 MP


Ostruppen

• Ostruppen now capture territory at half their current rate


Target Size and Accuracy

These changes are meant to work with the AT gun adjustments to reduce the overall variance in weapon damage output vs. lower tier vehicles. AT guns should feel far more reliable as a result.


222 Scout Car

• Target size from 20 to 18


StuG III

• Target size from 14 to 20


M3A1 Scout Car

• Target size from 20 to 18


T-70

• Target size from 14 to 18


AT Guns

• Accuracy far from 0.025 to 0.03
• Accuracy near from 0.05 to 0.055


Bug Fixes

• T34 can no longer activate ram if its engine is overheated
• ZIS and M-42 AT gun now properly received the 50% discount on reinforcement actions

Because it was the second time we both played CoH 2 after not having played for over a month. We just picked the two new commanders, funny names, and had fun with that.

Updates September 26th, 2013

Bug Fixes:

Ostruppen

- Ostruppen Weapon damage from 8 to 16
There was a data error in the ostruppens weapon where it was doing less damage than we had originally calculated. This was making the unit actually worse than other rifle units (for cost) even when utilizing its in cover bonus.

Assault Grenadiers

- Dispatch Cost from 280 manpower to 200 manpower and 50 munitions
- Reinforcement and population cost remain the same as prior
This change is to give a temporary gate to the deployment of these units as players are finding it very difficult to deal with them at the start. The munition cost will gate the unit by a few minutes as well as make deploying these units limit the players means to get other munitions upgrades such as Panzerschrecks on the Mechanized Assault Group or a flame halftrack.

Forward HQ

- Addressed an issue where the forward HQ was not properly costing the player resources
There was a case where this ability was not charging the players resources when used (no we’re not telling you exactly how).

Other

- Addressed two issues causing crashes


Balance

Maxim

- Suppression from 0.02 to 0.0175

MG42

- Suppressed suppression multiplier from 1 to 0.9
- Suppression from 0.0085 to 0.009
