Thread: So that OKW early game19 Aug 2015, 14:26 PM Possible changes aside, how else can can OKW be aggressive early on aside from Kubel pressure? I feel this is especially relevant in the current patch since the stupid small arms 100% main gun crit bug really hurts the Kubel. I'm far from the best OKW player but I too have a hard time seeing how OKW has a strong early game since Volks tend to get roflstomped early on 1 vs. 1 if the allied player has half a brain. Flak AA halftrack is map dependent and has a shortened amount of dominance since USF goes Captain often now and Soviet can get out a M5 or T70 out quicker now and shuts it down. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Need a stat master.19 Aug 2015, 00:48 AM From the almighty Cruzz in the another thread: "Other fun things the .50 cal has: Weapon priority value set wrong so it will get decrewed by PaKs and other antitank weapons very easily focus_fire: true so it does a notable amount less DPS than other HMGs considering its other stats. Vet2 removes all the aoe suppression and incremental accuracy changes HMGs were given Gun has 10 armor instead of 70 so gets gun destroyed fast by mortars and nades (35 pen) Worst long range penetration of any HMG in the game (1.0)" He later explains that focus fire:true means that bullets that miss their initial target can't hit other units for splash-like damage like other HMGs. Figures that as soon as it hits Vet 2 that it reverts back to the crappy HMGs of the previous patch >.> In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: State of USF18 Aug 2015, 19:55 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 19:21 PMBeefSurge He's talking about M1 Garands, not Grenades. Rifle vet scaling idea: instead of shorter cooldown at vet 3, decrease animation times of abilities at vet 3. I thought I read somewhere on here that the wind-up time on Rifleman grenades was wrong in the game files and thats why it takes so damn long. Be nice if Relic just fixed it instead, though it would be pretty sweet if Rifleman got cooked grenades at Vet 3 instead In: Lobby
Thread: State of USF18 Aug 2015, 19:52 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 18:10 PMLemonJuice cool. at the end of the day though rifles still have higher dps thanks to the garands and vet Interesting, so its more of a question of if you want a single squad with higher DPS or to spread it out over two squads. I'd like to know how much of a DPS increase RET Carbine -> BAR is compared to Garand -> BAR is. That is, if you get more out of your 60 MU short term if you upgrade the RET. Of course this would have diminishing returns the longer the hypothetical Rifle squad is at Vet 3. In: Lobby
Thread: What to do with the MG34?18 Aug 2015, 19:21 PM So THATS why the .50 Cal always felts like it was underperforming compared to other HMGs and gets decrewed and/or destroyed so easily despite its good looking stats. Relic should really just hire Cruzz to check their coding and such. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The lowy bunker spam!!! I am angry18 Aug 2015, 19:13 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 18:17 PM3p0k pak means one les unit inf dps (shoks-Guards) dont forget the 100 fuel stuka witch kills the pak. So you don't want to build a counter to something because that means you can't build other units that are already being countered by that thing? Not to mention that you eventually need an AT gun anyway? And you mean to say that there are other counters to the counter that you build requiring you to build further different counters? That almost sounds like the basis of this entire game. But you're a good player so shrug what do I know In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The lowy bunker spam!!! I am angry18 Aug 2015, 17:36 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 17:28 PM3p0k there is no counter to it!!! course its fucking low!!!! i know how to play!!! i know pack, su 76,smoke. dont tell me this shit. i know it my self Comm_Ash beat met to it... but if you are going to be rude then don't make posts and expect people to offer advice and be helpful. If you just want to vent and rage then I'd suggest finding a more constructive manner. Especially when some people could have just said "L2P lol" In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The lowy bunker spam!!! I am angry18 Aug 2015, 17:33 PM Bunkers are pretty easy to take care of. 1. AT Gun 2. Mortar 3. Smoke with Mortal + Penal Satchel Charge 4. Clown Car w/ Flamer Engi (circle around quickly and burn it down) If they are spamming bunkers then they are wasting considerable MP and Munis instead of actually buying mobile units to attack you or cap. If anything just avoid that bunkered area and cap everything else or decap the opponents cut-off then come back with a superior force. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: State of USF18 Aug 2015, 17:29 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 17:19 PMLemonJuice Remember that rifleman have the lethality 15% accuracy bonus whereas RE dont. Could you please clarify? Is this accuracy bonus something else aside from the normal vet bonus? In: Lobby
Thread: State of USF18 Aug 2015, 16:12 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 14:44 PMImagelessbean I find the USF lack of indirect fire frightening to say the least. +1 This is why I hope the Calliope in the game files isn't a lie. I shudder when I find myself on maps that tend to devolve into Central VP camping like Semois or Langresaya because I just know I'm going to end up banging my head off a Pak/MG42 wall more often than not while futilely throwing Pak Howie barrages at it. sigh In: Lobby
