Profile of Tiger Baron

• MG34 and MG42 in nrealy the same place in the tech tree
  
• Volk Faust
  
• Panzer 4 J
  
• No more resource penalty
  
• Lefh Arty piece (needs a buff IMO)
  
• People are suggesting Sturms should get 2 shrecks
  

Tell me how OKW is not slowly becoming Ostheer.West

I would have been fine with nearly everything but Volk Faust, arty piece and somewhat the P4J

Volk Should not have Fausts. or atleast have it stock, fortifications doctrine should have volk faust as a CP2 ability instead of that useless oversized leig Arty Piece

Panzer 4 J And Panther should have been unlockable, let me explain:

P4J requires Med HQ to be built from the Flak HQ, Panther requires Mech HQ to be built from the Flak HQ. and Obers gets a small price reduction too. this would entice more Jagdpanzer 4 play, make HQ decision more noticeable mid game. And Obers get a price decrease.

MG34 should be buildable not by 1st HQ built, but by 1st sWs Truck built. allows it to come slightly earlier with out it becoming MG42 lite.

Sturm Shrek package price should go from 90 muni to 75.

Oh, and my opinion on grens? buff model hp from 80 to 82 and fix spacing. it'll do wonders

We're not saying it's not becoming Wehrmacht West but since Wehrmacht was the most balanced Army up until a certain point it's normal the broken balanced Army to be shifted towards it in a similar manner, same with the Allies, why do you think the USF received the mortar while people (including myself) are pushing for the British mortar pit to be also replaced with a mobile mortar team? The USF's limited opening and shitty pack aside, it works, it just simply works, Wehrmacht and Soviets are the most well balanced and thought out Armies regardless of whatever anyone thinks, without any stupid gimmicks or cheesy bullshit, Relic tried assymetrical balance just like in CoH but it doesn't fucking work, it didn't work back then with the Brits, it doesn't work with the Western Front Armies now.

So there's really no need to point out something obvious, instead suggest how we or to be more specific, Relic should, if they ever read this or take advice from the community on balance ever again, balance the Western Front Armies without making them too similar to their Eastern Front counterparts?

Honestly the Wehrmacht being the earlier rushing German Army with early war tech and also sWS trucks sounds fine by me while the OKW would be the late war Wehrmacht with slower and more defensive approach as well as being more static in general.

Soviets, USF and Brits would function normally just without their gimmics, as in the British mortar pit (check my suggestion above), lock out "choices" and un balanced Armor, USF's .50 cal, Pack howitzer and AA half-track as well, maybe even the Stuart.

Just keep their current teching system but change the other stuff around it while balancing them accordingly.

Just for the record this is my own opinion to standardize all 5 of the current Armies around an even sort of ground balance meta without any gimmicks or assymetrical balancing which has proven unhealthy for now at least, it just does not simply work, being too static, being too mobile, having all around mainline infantry, etc...

This, is an 8th month old topic, are you 2 serious? Relic don't read the new ones, do you believe they'll read the old ones?

Squad spread mirrored to tommies, LMGs limit to 1, there, infantry engagements fixed and balanced without crippling any faction in the process with silly suggestions that don't have a chance to appear outside of mods.

Hey, balance expert, how about we test these changes first eh? I know how we can do that! Make a mod and give us the link so we see if it'll be fixed like you said it would be.

Otherwise all that you're saying here is thin air without any proof to back it up with.

Let's just remove every faction and only have Ostheer vs Ostheer mirror matches. Perfectly balanced game now.

You want balance? Cause that's how you get balance, otherwise I think we're all open to suggestions, sadly Relic will probably never implement them.

How about any more changes like OP suggests and we might just as well remove one of the axis factions and put its units as doctrinal choices, because soon, name will be the only difference between them?

Both of the Armies are representing the Wehrmacht during it's 2 stages of the war, so I don't see the need to replace, rename and whatever else, their entire function is the same, while in CoH, PE represented more of a Mechanized division rather than the entire Germany Army at one point in the war, you could say the Wehrmacht there was a sort of mix between an Infantry Division supporting a Panzer Division or something like that.

Did a battle and fix the input lag issue until next badluck Brian "patch"

** AMD CHIPSET BIOS SETTINGS (Intel has similar functions with different names)
Cool'n'Quiet-Disable
C1E -Disable
EPU -Disable
This is from ASUS mobo, check your motherboard manual for energy saving anything and disable those.

TPU: Avoid using TPU or auto-overclocking with this Chipset
Use DOCP for non-clocked and Manual to overclock a static setting rather than one that changes cpu MHz during game stress.
Personal tests showed that CoH2 does not take it well for unknown reason. Other CPU heavy games had no problems to my knowledge and experience from using auto-overclocking functions in AMD chipset Mobo (personally I use ASUS)
Tests were done with 4 players vs 4xAI expert pop cap 250


Removing Replay function: Major effect to FPS
My Documents / My games / Company of heroes 2 / PLAYBACK folder
-ALT-doubleclick temp.rec, might have file temp_tow.rec too
-Go to Security tab - click EDIT button.
-EDITING Account rights:
-Upper box has listed default (3)your account/admin/system.
-1by1 click upper box accounts and from lower box click DENY WRITE
-When you have done this to ALL accounts in the upper box click OK
-Repeat process if there is 2nd file in the Playback folder w/_ToW abbrew
This _tow file is the replay for last Theater of War gamemode.
If you do not play Theater of War gamemode then skip the second file.
There are instructions to do this directly to the playback folder rather than files. Avoid doing that.

WINDOWS POWER SAVING SETTINGS (Laptop owners specially should check this)
This phase can be done with Razer Cortex game booster automatically.
-Start button - Control panel - Hardware & Sound - Power
-Change plan settings - Advanced power settings
-PCI Express: Link state... : OFF
-Processor power management: System Cooling policy: Active
-Maximum processor state should be 100% by default, re-check to make sure.

Port forwarding for steam from your router/firewall is also recommended.
Steam uses it's own port system for all games. Some routers have settings ready made just need to activate them and direct them to your computer. Google instructions on specific routers and steam required ports if not included in the router premade. Info is abundantly available, recommend portforwarding.com

So in the end of my week hunt for command/input lag ingame with 4 expert AI's I found out it's the crapload of energy saving functions stacked skyhigh on modern systems in several layers what caused the majority of the problem. And ofc the epic coding skills of Relic what made me suspect they hire the guys Microsoft tosses out.
And no THQ did know how to code and fix if there's a problem. Relic does it the other way around.

Dude, this topic is like 3 years old, give it a rest.
