Thread: T34/85 or KV1 in Soviet Industry Commander? 4 Oct 2019, 15:20 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2019, 15:10 PMRaviloli There's already a commander with Shocks and a KV-2 in the form of Urban Defense, but seeing Guards and a KV-2 together would be nice. Guards would be my preference - I'd always have one around the KV-2 to help with its survivability like I do with the ISU. It might make it an option compared to Mechanized Support or Shock Rifle. Three tanks would be overkill and almost as unhelpful as two repairs. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T34/85 or KV1 in Soviet Industry Commander? 4 Oct 2019, 15:07 PM I voted for the T34/85 because that looked to be the best of the options. As Osinyagov pointed out, there are two slots taken by repairs and two AI tanks so the doctrine is anything but fine. I'd rather see the Crew Repair replaced by Guards or Shocks. The KV2 is slow and easy to dive with Panthers or even mediums unless you have a ton of AT around it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: I know why MG42 is underperforming much4 Oct 2019, 14:25 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2019, 12:30 PMKatitof You people do realize that putting HMGs against each other and trying to claim one is better then other is as brilliant as putting ATGs against each other and claiming the one to kill the other is better...... For OP's next level of brilliance, he should test the USF ambulance against the new OKW ambulance. He could make a big circle and have a demolition derby in it. I'm betting the OKW one would win because it looks to be sturdier and faster. USF has the OP crew ability so it might be close. Maybe the ambulance should have bazookas?... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The game is balanced enough.3 Oct 2019, 15:21 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Oct 2019, 11:14 AMkitahlo LOL no please explain why the matchmaking choices are 90/10 for axis ? Oh right, allies are shit AF Search rates are highly dependent on time of day and don't prove anything. If I play in the middle of the day while most of North America is at work, the search rate is usually mostly Axis. When the central and western US is playing then the search rate is usually more Allied than Axis. Also, Kaitoff is right about how the numbers work. That said, I don't know how balance is in 1v1's, but the patch has been terrible for USF and UKF in large team games. The Riflemen buff probably helped USF a lot in 1v1's where there are a bunch of small engagements but isn't noticeable in 4v4's. For those, all USF got out of the patch was nerfs to the pack howie, Scott, and Jackson. The nerfs to IS have made UKF much worse in 3's or 4's. Try capping anything without leaving cover. Soviets and Ost feel okay. OKW is great. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Easy USF fix3 Oct 2019, 00:51 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Oct 2019, 23:41 PMLago IIRC Sander stated it further up the thread, and he's on the patch team. I didn't notice it but he'd know better than any of the rest of us. They should at least adjust the cost up to 280mp and lower the fuel down to 25. If you want access to grenades, weapon racks and both an AT gun and mg then USF is always about 20-30 fuel behind Ost or OKW to get armor out. Some people might be able to use the power spike to even it out but in some ways that's just as bad. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Vs sully and stark3 Oct 2019, 00:27 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Oct 2019, 23:27 PMullumulu than u should look it again..i was all the time push back sully...and my mate didnt even hold something so he give up in the eraly game and was useless all the time If by push back, you mean made him go back to base once to heal squads then sure. Then his healed squads rolled you back to your base. In any event, I got to experience it first hand. My next random was against Sully and a different partner. I'm still searching for something that works against OKW. In: Replays
Thread: Easy USF fix2 Oct 2019, 23:11 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Oct 2019, 11:20 AMLago Making them not free's been ruled out by Relic, but I quite like the idea of diversing them like this. Do you know this for a fact or are you speculating? Also, if we're stuck with the current structure then they should change the cost to 280/25 or the powerspike will continue to cause a problem.

Thread: Vs sully and stark2 Oct 2019, 22:23 PM I watched it because I wanted to see Sully and Stark's build order (who obviously still play USF this patch). After your build order of MG, MG, the smartest thing I saw from you was the 11 minute surrender, because 500-180 at 11 minutes >>>> 500-0 at 14. In: Replays
Thread: Pershing needs a timing nerf2 Oct 2019, 19:18 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Oct 2019, 18:48 PMDoomlord52 This is a good suggestions. It would be interesting if all heavy tanks were made buildable at each factions "final tech" level/building when the current conditions were met (enough points, pre-req up, etc.). It would give the balance team the ability to adjust build times on individual heavies, and it should be possible to do; the T34-85 already uses this method, just with a 0-point requirement, rather than the 9-14 of heavies. Maybe make them buildable at the HQ like Aerafield is suggesting, but having them start on cooldown like Sky suggested. It would be nice to have a larger window for mediums. It seems weird that my first armor is often either an IS2 or Tiger. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Pershing needs a timing nerf2 Oct 2019, 19:12 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Oct 2019, 18:33 PMEsxile Cuz it is well known no one build an ambulance and unlock bar or grenade. You also have to give up either MG's or AT guns. In: COH2 Balance
