Thread: Relic pls...No Steam Premium mods.27 Apr 2015, 12:34 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Apr 2015, 19:32 PM5trategos I really doubt Relic/Steam can force someone to sell their mod for profit if they don't want to. They can over their servers but realistically they wouldn't and the mod creator could host it elsewhere. In: Lobby
Thread: Molotov and AT nade27 Apr 2015, 12:29 PM One faction having a good thing over another is not a sign of unfairness. There are good and bad sides to each faction. Yes wehr get them for free, but its more expensive for them to tech and they can't skip tiers. Yes US get superior grenades & smoke but they do not get access to all their weapons teams as other factions do and they cost more munitions. As for the molotovs/at nades, i'd say they're worth the investment simply for the additional utility on conscripts. Its hard to say if molotovs are good or not as they're essentially a lottery.

Thread: Armor Company (US) vs. Mechanized Assault (Wehr)27 Apr 2015, 10:28 AM M10 comes a bit late for stug-e countering doesn't it? how many CPs is Stuggie? M10s are 'ok' against the Tiger but its not ideal. Bulldozer sherman... I don't see the point vs mechanised really.. bog standard Sherman handles the stug-e better and is still good vs infantry.

Thread: USF Popcap bug?27 Apr 2015, 09:33 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Apr 2015, 20:21 PMAlexzandvar Except the Priest is an artillery piece, and every faction has "exceptions". The JPIV is an exception for OKW, which doesn't get medium tanks for instance. The reason pop cap abuse is so problematic with the Priest is that your only ever paying for it for the very short amount of time it's barraging, the rest of the time you can just have it decrewed. The amount you save is so small, its not worth the additional micro to do. In: COH2 Bugs

Thread: Demos for axis24 Apr 2015, 13:54 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Apr 2015, 13:33 PMAssaultPlazma http://ftr.wot-news.com/2013/08/18/m26-pershing-medium-or-heavy-plus-other-stuff/ Tank classification is not standard across nations. Within the context of WW II m26 Pershing was a heavy tank by all acounts. By the time they made it to the front there really werent any Heavy Tank things to do anymore. Pershing is a straight equal to the IS-1/Tiger I during WW2, but then competes with Centurion/T44/T-54 post war. Had the T-44 and centurion seen action(T-44 saw barely any) the same argument would be used against them. Interesting read but it does seem to speak to my point. The M26 was designed as a medium tank (american classification) and then redesignated as a heavy in order to boost morale. Then it was returned as a medium post war. To quote your article "the M26 was built as a medium tank(that could still do heavy tank things), was used as a medium tank, and was called a medium tank before and after its stint as a heavy." I would argue that the classification of a tank should come from the nation that produced it, within reason. Someone mentioned that the panther was classified as a heavy by the US (I have no idea if that is true or not) but it is now known to be a medium tank as it was designated by the germans.

Thread: How Do You Counter The IS-2?24 Apr 2015, 13:33 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 11:04 AMAladdin You will always lose to the player of the same skill because of the unbalance as obvious. I have seen many stream/replays of top 10 players who lose (as OKW) to soviet players of lower ranks/skills. Check the post#273 in here: http://www.coh2.org/topic/33246/a-letter-to-relic-coh2-game-balance-team/page/14#post_id321046 it tells you the truth. the letter from Paul "I do all the hard work as OKW and finally get my KT then throw it into the enemy base and rage quit" a.D I do exactly the same as you Carlos, I'd follow that up with a Panther vs is2, chances are you won't be able to skip the Jagd though. You could go command panther after Jagd if you feel like you don't need the S.hq flak gun. The OKW panther can head to head the IS2, its very close. Don't go crazy and chase it down though, if you lose the panther to a mine you're screwed, bide your time, get your vet up and pick your moment. In: OKW Strategies
Thread: American Base howitzer24 Apr 2015, 13:12 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 23:58 PMAlexzandvar The support guns both need to be fired directly into enemy lines like a ZiS gun to be useful, they really aren't able to be classified as a indirect fire unit leaving OKW with only 1 option, the stuka. The thing is nobody on these forums seems to pay any attention to the fuel disability which makes the Stuka absurdly expensive and basically the largest non-direct fire unit investment in the game. Your right USF needs to take a doctrine, but Infantry is by far not a bad one. And with OKW to get the LeiG and Stuka you need to get t1 and t2 while the mortar HT and priest are both call in's and can be pop-cap abused. Whether or not its too expensive / not good enough isn't really the point though is it. OKW do have access to the Stukka whilst USF don't have anything. I agree the IFG doesn't really function in the same way as a mortar and essentially makes it extremely situational and massively overpriced in the same way the pack howitzer is. Pick this or that doctrine is the solution to every USF lacks x / y problem. Its basically like playing half an army. In: COH2 Gameplay
