Thread: Are they not fixing heavies?7 Feb 2020, 09:40 AM Heavy tank balance has always been a huge factor in the game since 2013. It's only logical to invest in a heavy since it counters most other units and is easier to use than equal investment if medium/light tanks. Any heavy tank that isn't an IS 2 is pretty easily repelled from my experience, however what I do not like is OKWs artillery ability as well as smoke ability on any heavy unit(that involves the Churchill and it's derivatives). One could attempt tuning heavy tanks' offensive abilities down a little together with a price decrease, in order to make them alternatives to medium tanks instead of just straight up the better choice. Kinda like the Churchill is. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Zero reason why the Infrared HT should have this much health5 Feb 2020, 05:07 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Feb 2020, 21:43 PMelchino7 It's clear he doesn't know the unit is getting nerfed. Well I sure feel stupid now. I could've sworn last time I've used it it still did see through cover. Delete this thread then. Thank you for the nice and civil discussion In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Zero reason why the Infrared HT should have this much health1 Feb 2020, 20:36 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jan 2020, 18:51 PMelchino7 Reason: there is no need for artillery units to remain in the frontline once they use their barrage. IRHT is a HT which needs to remain in the frontline to get value out of it's vision. The problem I have with this reasoning is that the Infrared HT is a variable reward, but ZERO risk unit. I see how the unit is useful, and it's not a super overpowered one. But I dislike the fact that there is essentially zero risk involved in it's use. Plop it down behind some cover near and you're fine. I think that is bad game design, as risk and reward should balance each other out. One could give it other uses, for sure. But as it stands, it really is just a nobrainer. 5 fuel? Come on now. With units like the valentine, for example, not only is there risk involved, but they do infer a cost by higher popcap if they are forgotten/not used well. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: tier 0 and tier 1 OKW rework 15 Jul 2019, 17:55 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Jul 2019, 10:26 AMStug life mp 40s can perfectly deal with infantry after the rework, stg are just an overall weapon buff at all ranges and make them counter cons at all ranges, with the mp 40s now they have to chose and it's better in certain situations, like vs cons u can chose to win either at long or close , but vs brits u don't really have an answer, same vs rifle, with the mp40s u get the close range advantage now Most gun upgrades are a buff at all ranges. Where do people get the idea from that a more expensive unit with a techlocked muni upgrade should lose to a cheaper unit without a munitions upgrade? In: COH2 Balance

Not to mention Pak howy is only support weapon in the game that de-crews with 2 men still alive. Well technically, the British mortar emplacement... :^) In: COH2 Balance

All allied mediums have 160 armour. That means the JP4 will ALWAYS pen them, even at 60 range. The panther is there for heavy armour like the su85 is supposed to be for the Soviet. The units are different but the roles are the same. Use the JP4 for what it's designed and you will find it a lot more effective. You use a hammer to drive a nail, not a collander. Ok so when can we expect the JP 4 to cost as much as a SU 76, and a Panther to have a gun like the SU 85, as well as self spotting, as well as a lower price? In: COH2 Balance

JP4 is SU-76 of OKW, not SU-85. No, JP4 is JP4 of OKW. It has no parallels to SU 76. Unless we are now looking forward to a price decrease of JP4 as well as huge buffs to the Panthers main gun to put it in line with SU 85 effectiveness :^) In: COH2 Balance
Thread: TO JUSTIFY OKW NO CACHES, NO BASES REFUND! 22 Jun 2019, 15:03 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Jun 2019, 14:48 PMGrim it's a good unit. It's just forgotten because the Panther is idiot proof whereas a casemate TD requires more micro to an extent. It is the worst out of the ones mentioned. It has a penetration of 170, which is laughably low for a turretless T4 tank destroyer. It also cannot spot for itself and is very immobile. Only the Stug is worse, but much less expensive, and I guess the Panther with it's laughable fire rate. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: TO JUSTIFY OKW NO CACHES, NO BASES REFUND! 22 Jun 2019, 14:22 PM The JPIV needs a penetration buff. It's nowhere near SU 85, Firefly or Jackson, and is a big part why it's a forgotten unit. Big problem is OKW units having a huge price tag but performing very badly compared to their counterparts In: COH2 Balance
