Thread: Patch notes 29 Oct27 Oct 2015, 10:01 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Oct 2015, 05:02 AMHat Whats up with people? Is it possible that perhaps both OKW and UKF have balancing issues? Yes. The only difference is that OKW had balancing issues in the past while UKF still has balancing problems in present. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Wild Idea To Change OKW Teching26 Oct 2015, 10:57 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Oct 2015, 10:13 AMAngryKitten465 Sounds great but then fuel starvation needs to go. If you want, for example, a panther, you need to invest 180 fuel into teching, plus the 175 fuel for the panther itself and the 600 mp plus whatever the panther cost manpower wise. This isn't going to end well with such a fuel starved faction. Disagree. The resources starvation is the faction's flavor, eather we like it or not. But I think that these days OKW is ready to receive 80% amo and 80% fuel also. Not entirely eliminate the fuel penalty, but reduce it a little. That would be appropriate in my view. In: COH2 Balance

Since brits launch, it was allways like this. Quantity of skill needed for axis to win > quantity of skill needed for allied to win. Disclaimer: I am talking about TEAM games. People like to see OKW faction suffer because it was OP at its launch. This is stupid and does harm to balance. We are playing in present, not in the past. Fix brits, and I will have nothing against them anymore. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: KV1 / KV2 are completely outclassed by british Tanks26 Oct 2015, 09:16 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Oct 2015, 20:11 PMAchtAchter The KV1, while costing 145 fuel is far worse than the Churchill that costs 150 fuel. Even in the next patch the Churchill will still have a better gun, more health, better acceleration and abilities that actually help it's role as a "damage soaker". 30 Armour difference don't justify this dramatic performance difference, especially since the KV1 is the "show horse" tank of the Counterattack commander. And the KV2 has unfortunately become a complete troll unit. With 800 HP it just doesn't sustain any concentrated attack, especially when it has to get immobile first to do anything useful. With 230 fuel it's also completely overpriced when compared to British tanks and the Tiger 1 / IS2 that cost exactly the same. It had its punch when it still had 100 range but ever since the range got reduced to 70 in lock down - soviet industry has been forgotten by relic, while the new factions get the shiny new toys. I like to discuss ways to buff / solve this imbalance between units. What do you guys suggest? Oh, I know, I know the solution! Let's make them as OP as british tanks! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Brit Sniper shouldn't be able to Crit 222's engine26 Oct 2015, 09:14 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2015, 17:29 PMsiuking666 I think british sniper critical shot ability needs to be looked at. right now 222 and Kubel are supposed to be the light vehicles that can detect and hunt down carelessly placed snipers. But the problem is, most of the time the sniper can put a critical shot on them, damaged their engines and still have enough time to retreat and survive; While the 222/Kubel are just sitting ducks wating to get wasted by Vicker/IS/6 Pound whatever. With 2 snipers you dont even need AT, crit shot it, and kite snipe it to death. Countering your own counter isn't supposed to happen in this game. Crit shot on 222/Kubel should only be stuff like Jam Turret etc, NOT engine damage, rendering them useless as a counter. or lazy solution (relic's favourite) - Further buff their accuracy against sniper, since 222 isn't great at killing inf already (Accuracy is shit), and Kubel can't do anything while on the move EDIT: Some people in this forum just can't fucking read. Crit shot on 222/Kubel should only be stuff like Jam Turret etc, NOT engine damage, rendering them useless as a counter. AND YES, 222 is a counter option according to Relic, since they buffed 50% extra accuracy vs Sniper How can you ask such a thing? It's outrageous! Because it's reasonable. P.S. Look at all these people defending this OP unit, the verry british sniper. It's amazing! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Brit Sniper shouldn't be able to Crit 222's engine26 Oct 2015, 09:13 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2015, 18:53 PMKatitof Great idea! Can we make T34 immune to pfausts as well while we're at it, because it sucks when it can't move fast? His request has nothing to do with this nonsense you wrote. I said it a thousand times before, no sniper in this game (axis or not axis) should be able to softcounter / block / damage his verry counter. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Patch notes 29 Oct26 Oct 2015, 08:23 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Oct 2015, 06:22 AMMoerserKarL rip okw because of what? Fixing the LEIG? Nope. Because they don't have anything else to realy rely on when facing the recently buffed allied infantry (cons, rifles, you name it). I often find myself playing exclussevely luftwaffe because at least I can get an infantry that does some damage. It's a shame how they nerfed the ISG without giving OKW something to help them hold the line. So... be it. From now on, COH2 will be an Allied fest. I'm not surprised, COH1 degraded like this also in the past eventualy. Because Allied won the war and this should be shown, even if it's a game that need balance. GL for anyone tries to play with axis, the HF part was confiscated by the opponent. Winning with Axis will require far more skill in the future which could be a positive thing, leading to improvement. In: COH2 Gameplay
