Thread: USSR FHQ Ability OP17 May 2015, 05:55 AM I am so sick of seeing this on 4v4 USSR player rushes fuel point/ whatever, instaspawns FHQ, wins battle. Why is this stupidly OP ability still in the game? Ways to balance this out- 1) Add a timer to establish FHQ, like in COH 1 2) Allow a decap, like in CoH 1 Sorry for the rage but this ability is bullshit. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: M36- badly underpowered?11 Dec 2014, 04:26 AM Rifles are really decent infantry, 'nough said. The real weakness of the USF lies in their anti-armor capabilities, which combined with the ungodly accuracy of shreks gives the Germans a huge advantage. Just my two cents. Also the M36 needs a buff #thread In: COH2 Balance
Thread: M36- badly underpowered?8 Dec 2014, 05:30 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Dec 2014, 16:22 PMCieZ For a practical example of how good Jacksons can be: http://www.coh2.org/replay/27905/lemonciez-vs-tristanlevit I watched your replay...you did well, but I didn't think the M36's were particularly effective. Your P47 did way more damage than them, and honestly you probably could've accomplished more by using M4A3s (yea I'm a noob but that was my take on that replay). In: COH2 Balance
Thread: M36- badly underpowered?8 Dec 2014, 04:23 AM A lot of really good points in here.... What I was trying to get across in the OP is that I feel like the M36 is very underwhelming in its role as the Apex US TD. It is supposed to be the final word in the destruction of enemy armor by occupying the highest tech position, and to me this makes sense- historically it was the heaviest armed production vehicle of the war for the US, tied with the T26 tank. In practice its incredibly underwhelming to me. I realize I'm a noob and I have to worry about things like panzershrek sniping blobs and advanced Axis armor, but I just really feel like the M36 is a huge letdown, especially when the Wehr players are pulling our their shiny toys like the Tiger/KT/JT/Panther. Oh here you go US, you can have this mediocre dumbed down tank. We hope you like it because there are no better AT options other than a doctrinal air strike. It's a huge buzkiller. As far as my noobish opinion, reading suggestions I really liked the idea from the moderator who suggested raising the penetration and reducing the RoF. I feel like that would make it much more relevant. Alternatively keep the current RoF and raise the penetration and raise the price- I would be OK with a price increase if that made it more relevant against later game units but less so against T3 German ones.

Thread: M36- badly underpowered?5 Dec 2014, 02:17 AM Title pretty much says it all... In real life the 90mm M3 gun on the M36 was vastly superior in AP qualities to the German 75mm Kwk L/42 found on the Panther (source: dem internetz, also wikipedia). In game, the role of the M36 is that of a pure TD at the apex of the US tech tree. The panther is a mixed role tank at the apex of the German trees. However, the panther has significantly heavier armor and the 75mm gun has decent effect versus infantry. While I understand that the game isn't balanced around real life, I don't get why the M36 is such a complete PoS. It's a very expensive tank that is frankly awful at its role. Give that the M36 and the Panther occupy relatively the same place at the apex of their tech trees, and that both are about the same price, I would expect that M36 to at LEAST be as good in an anti-tank role as the panther. Alas, the M36 struggles to penetrate the frontal armor of the panther at extremely close range, which given the 90mm M3 is a sick joke, unless they are literally firing rubber shells out of the gun. TLR- Fix the M36 so it's competitive v German late armor. In: COH2 Balance
