Buff cons, they said...
 |
A well balanced commander will sell more then a cheesy OP commander that will be nerfed next month, as people will recognize it's utility over buffed shit.
You think so?
The past has proven otherwise. |
Relying and crutches just to win against mediocre players, I'm wondering if Relic has lost sight of it's intentions for Ostheer and the game in general, which ultimately should be to create a fun game(and make money). Regardless of balance, player enjoyment and contentment usually indicates your doing something right, and with the advent of the last patch, and all this new premium P2W commanders, this game has completely lost a sense of direction.
I realized this after getting pissed after the (insert RNG incidence here), for the (insert large number here) time. So, my intentions here are simple, find out what the player base is seeking to obtain from playing this gem of a game, and see where they want it to go.
Good poll, although you miss several options such as redesigning faction or adding new content(Panzer III or Hotchkiss in a commander for example).
However, you will not get the real input, because coh2.org is just a fanpage. Many players (majority of my friends) do not even know its existance or check it regularly.

Are you kidding me? the jackson is the the third best TD that can penetrate a heavy tank. the only ones that do it better are the panther and the firefly but they have shit dps. with hvap they are the best TD's to take on heavy tanks.
the weakness of the m36 is not heavy tanks but medium tanks. 2 p4's will have a far better chance to catch a m36 and because of their much higher dps can quickly eliminate a lone m36.
HVAP is vet ability. How the vehicle can vet up is another story. If there is no penetration, then there is no HVAP. Bringing HVAP to argue is the same with bring Blitzkrieg or Tactician Smoke to argue.
From my previous experience, M36 fare better chance against medium, because shot always penetrate. Against heavy armor like Panther, Tiger and higher, M36 become RNG dependency. If player is unlucky, the heavy will laugh and start to slaughter, maybe not the M36, but the infantry or vehicle it suppose to cover. Once the heavy finish its role, it retreats back and M36 cannot venture to chase because of its measly hp. |
IMO, 6-8 zooks are much better at scaring away German armor then Jacksons. At least, infantry has much better chances to survive after someone sneezing on them
The zook blob may work, but quickly becomes invalid by weefee from another wehr player.
Back to the topic, M36 gun should be more reliable at penetrating panther and tiger at long range (you can't use them at close range at all). |
keep in mind tho that you need to nerf to the usf early game if you buff the mid-lategame, because usf isnt in a bad spot right now at all. if you buff mid-late and leave early game it will make them stronger than their counterparts.
but i never see a jackson to be honest..
+1. This is what I really want with US. Strong early and weak late make faction only viable at 1v1.
Early nerf and late buff for US is essential.
After Calliope nerf, USF will disappear from large team matches, just like before. |
Between CoH1 and CoH2, which one do you prefer to?
CoH1
Advantage: Can camouflage regardless of terrain.
Disadvantage: Slow(for inf) or immobile(for vehicle), manual camo pressing
CoH2
Advantage; Can move at full speed (for inf) or half speed (for vehicle), automatic camo(even when retreating)
Disadvantage: Can only camouflage at cover (for inf)

This is my opinion:
Make T34/76 specialize in countering infantry. The shot explosive should be more similar to Sherman HE round.
Improve SU85 anti-tank capability.
And T34/85 is the hybrid of both.

PzWefer for years? It was useless for years, now it OP.
Stuka zu fuss is not even close to them.
Walking stuka still wipes weapon team like no tomorrow and you say not even close. (And with OKW res buff, 150fuel=>100fuel). Use incendiary barrage at vet 4 and blob evaporates in seconds.
Panzerwerfer has already been useful even before it was buff. At that time I could wipe any weapon team with it, now I can wipe any infantry and suppress anyone I miss.
Actually, when Western Front came out, Allies players whined about Stuka, but get nothing from Relic. And then they adapted to it over time. Now the first time Axis players tastes their own medicine, of course it's painful (me feel it too). |
Simple poll time! Balance aside, which faction do you love to play the most. And no "I play every faction bullshit".
It's dictative of you to remove a choice. Now, I cannot make a vote because I love every factions the same way  .
