Thread: Game is almost balanced28 Jul 2019, 19:39 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jul 2019, 19:32 PMddd I was watching latest 2v2 tourney to see how top players are pushing each faction to its limit and came to conclusion that game is almost balanced. But one thing bothered me: allies often could secure 2 fuel points in early game. I think if balance team nerfs allies early game a little (and usf units mentioned above) game will be in a best spot yet (just like panther). Discuss. So you watched the VonIvan/Isuldur matchups with the allies losing both of the first two games (I didn't see the third so have no comment on it) and concluded that allies need further nerfs, and that somehow the Jackson is an early game unit?

Thread: USF tactical support strafing run28 Jul 2019, 18:53 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jul 2019, 18:31 PMAarotron You could turn it into a 2 plane loiter. But i belive that people would hardly be fan of more skill plane, especially with calliope. Then turn it into something useful, even IR pathfinders. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF tactical support strafing run28 Jul 2019, 16:48 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jul 2019, 07:55 AMblancat 100 muni is still expensive and there is no reason to use this trash I tried the strafing run after seeing the claim that it reliably decrews MG's in green cover at the edges of the map. I got no decrews in the one game that I tried it. I'd rather have a cut-and=paste of any of the OST skill planes. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Pak Howitzer needs adjustment28 Jul 2019, 16:39 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jul 2019, 16:28 PMelchino7 Outside of reworking the unit: -Increase number of shells on barrage. -Nerf AA Pak Howie, post balance changes done to ALL INDIRECT fire units which made them weaker, should be at equivalent levels to the 120mm mortar. Comparison: +1, but would rather have a shorter cooldown than increasing the number of shells In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can anyone give me any USF strats?28 Jul 2019, 15:21 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jul 2019, 11:12 AMAarotron i still need to try out scott spam with bazooka rifles It can be fun. Be prepared to have your orientation questioned by players who find their JT's suddenly not all powerful. It works best with a couple AT guns, a .50 cal, and IR pathfinder in the mix. I use it regularly on players at my skill level, but don't think that it would help me beat anyone above my skill level. Panzerwerfers or Walking Stuka can wreck this so it's anything but a free win.

Thread: Can anyone give me any USF strats?28 Jul 2019, 05:53 AM I just played a 2v2 with someone who used the urban assault commander on Elst and built almost nothing but RE's, fighting pits (made one AA truck and AT gun). He built a USF version of Sim City. It was odd and almost comical to see all of the RE's running around. He didn't do a lot of damage but kept them off-balance. It kind of surprised me but we won.

Thread: Mech sherman 7627 Jul 2019, 01:23 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Jul 2019, 22:52 PMRocket Anyone feel like this tank is a bit lack luster? For one it micro taxes the hell out of you and I feel like the round change timer is way too long to be able to plausibly use it effectively. I do not mind the micro tax but if you consider the micro and timers it takes AND how un reliable and un effective it seems to be. I think the round change timer and micro is ok if the rounds actually did what they were suppose to. Im not a stat guy i know a lot of you are but something seems off with it, it missed all the time, feels buggy when it fires, produces little results when using AI rounds vs AI, AT vs At. Wtf is its place when it is not effective at either, id rather it cost more if it could do BOTH of those things better. It should be able to not like it has amazing armor hp speed or anything really. I mean ive had a few miracle moments with it but ive also had at guns kill snipers so. I mean why cannot it not be a risky tank to charge a panther against if it has the right rounds, right now its not just another pos sherman version that even 2 of them a panther easily bullys both that dosent work because its lack luster in both departments. They never feel like they're much better than a standard Sherman. They have the same armor and hit points so they die to four shots of just about anything, all for a little more fuel and manpower than the standard Sherman. I'd always rather have one Jackson and one Scott than two of these. I would have much preferred an Easy 8 in the doctrine, even with its inconsistent main gun. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T0-0CP panzerfusiliers worthless25 Jul 2019, 14:35 PM I didn't read the poll carefully enough and voted the wrong way. PF's are no more worthless than rifles. They trade really well with rifles unless you're trying to use them like Sturmpio's. They're really good with upgrades and vet, especially the G43 upgrade. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: pathfinders24 Jul 2019, 15:56 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Jul 2019, 10:42 AMostpanzer Hey guys need to ask couple of questions about this squad : 1.Wich are the stats for this squad?( weapons,slots for weapons,sight range and range of weapons) 2.Is there any other difference between the pathfinders and I&R? 3.Does the squad affected by weapons? i mean if i man a .30mm MG with pathfinders do they keep their sight as pathfinders or they become a mG teaam with MG stats?do htey keep their stats even if i give them bars or zookss? 4.I play mostly team games and no 1v1 is it better to have a mini blob of 3-4 pathfinders squad or mixed with IS(Infantry squad)? tyvm I use Pathfinders most games. I wouldn't recommend blobbng them. There relatively expensive and their DPS isn't great on their own. I like using them together with a paratrooper squad that is upgraded for long range. I'll often get 60 kills for the combination of one each of those. Pathfinders are also really helpful around MG's or AT guns. I often don't upgrade Pathfinders. I'm always munition starved when playing recon support and would rather have more mines or Pathfinder arty. I'd probably think differently if the upgrades made a big difference but the upgrades don't turn them into Obers. If I do upgrade them, it is usually with a single BAR. It used to be that if you recrewed a team weapon with Pathfinders, IS with improved sight, or Panzerfusiliers that the team weapon would keep the increased sight. I'm pretty sure that was patched out for IS but not sure about the other squads. In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: T34 ram inconsistency21 Jul 2019, 06:05 AM I don't mind the ram as it is. It seems like it should be random. It shouldn't guarantee engine damage on the tank that is being rammed. If it did, then anything above a P4 would get rammed which would lead to some frustrating gameplay. In: COH2 Balance
