Thread: So...my Tiger kept bouncing against a KV-1Yesterday, 18:22 PM Jump back to quoted postYesterday, 16:32 PMOlekman Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the only difference between them a marginally better reload speed of KV-1? Yeah that's correct. According to the stats site KV1 reload is 5.2-5.8 seconds, t34 is 6.1 seconds. Every other stat is identical Edit: whoops someone beat me to it In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Can we plz "fix" the CalliOPe?Yesterday, 16:06 PM I don't think munu for Calliope barrages is a good idea for USF. They burn through muni more than everyone else already Making their rocket arty require doctrine and muni seems like too much of punishment In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Helmets OP26 Sep 2020, 22:18 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Sep 2020, 20:52 PMMr. Someguy If helmets are OP then why do Soviet Gun Crews have helmets but Guards Rifle Infantry do not? Guard caps are sewn with communist labor and contain threads made from Stalin's mustache. They provide protection a helmet-wearing soldier can only dream of In: Lobby

Your using my post as a springboard to mock Vipper... That post was literally about there being no reason to argue, and then you went and trolled someone... Like hell you're agreeing In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Tribute to riflemen smoke23 Sep 2020, 20:43 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Sep 2020, 20:35 PMVipper So let me see if I get this right: Player 1 "sacrifices 780 manpower in HMG" Player 2 "sacrifices" 240 manpower to counter that 780 investment and that somehow is bad... Did you even read that whole post? They literally said "I'm so bad at countering them" When a user preemptively admits their own trouble, you'd think people would respond differently He even put the thread in the gameplay section...

Thread: Are Paras the only thing that counters Falls?22 Sep 2020, 17:15 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Sep 2020, 17:03 PMShadowLinkX37 How do you fight commandos? How do you fight paras? How do you fight Obers? You don't fight AI specialists with infantry. You use vehicles. This.

Thread: Can we plz "fix" the CalliOPe?21 Sep 2020, 20:34 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Sep 2020, 19:42 PMthedarkarmadillo It can still be made basically useless but still there. Less effective but there would be easier to balance than all in on durability give it low traverse speed and rof but something is better than nothing. Hell even JUST a smoke shell would be better than nothing. Spread out its utility because a 140fuel rocket arty damn well needs to be good some how and if anything above a 2cm is going to pen it and kill it in 2 shots it better nuke everything in its barrage area-but that's not feasible by any means... Yeah those could work. I just don't even know how true the stories are if it being modified. But with the factory design, the launcher is literally attached to the barrel of the main gun. So fire one single shot and the whole system is in trouble Jump back to quoted post21 Sep 2020, 19:42 PMthedarkarmadillo Its kinda like the isu balancing to me. People bitch and moan about the AP shells but it keeps the cost up and the AI down because it has more to flesh out the cost than just AI. if the calliope can bring more than JUST the barrage then it is easier to justify its cost. There are many metrics that CAN be applied if we widen the scope beyond its durability, barrage power and its price because the odds of all 3 being balanced and attractive are slim. Yeah the gameplay reasoning for your idea is perfect. It's honestly just me being a stickler. This game is like just on the edge of ignoring history too much imo, which is my only objection to this In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can we plz "fix" the CalliOPe?21 Sep 2020, 18:26 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Sep 2020, 14:12 PMthedarkarmadillo That's why I'd have its main gun functional so it's not dead weight. Basically I'd have it act like Tulips but an AI barrage instead. Yoi get so many more ways to tweak then and ensure that it's powerlevel and cost effectiveness is where it's wanted. I know realism isn't supposed to matter but it in this case it would bother me if they did that. The Sherman's main gun was pretty much useless when the launcher was mounted. There's stories of guys modifying it in the field to work, but the gun was always much less effective I think using realism to say X should beat Y is dumb, but when it comes to whether or not something was even possible, I wish Relic cared a little more about realism In: COH2 Balance
