A-dded a delay of 5 seconds between when the ability becomes activated and the effects become active U-I-target painting becomes visible immediately to warn the target -Effects dissipate immediately if sturmovik spotter gets shot down Suggestion: 1) try different penalties: up to mediums target size X1.2, armor X0.9 heavies armor X0.8.

Thread: Eastern Front Armies Revamp 23 May 2017, 10:33 AM Jump back to quoted post20 May 2017, 23:43 PMmiragefla Forward headquarters We are seeking ways to make the ability more attractive by making the Forward HQ cheaper to deploy, while reducing the amount of frustration it can pile on the enemy if “abused” on heavily urban maps. -Reduce price from 300/60 to 300/30 -Aura removed -Can only be activated in connected territory Suggestion: 1) Fix the consistency of EFA houses some of them medium sized ones can be destroyed by a single bundle grenade. 2) Fix flamer Damage to houses 3) Make the aura a timed ability with a cooldown 4) more radical, allow the building to vet via shared veterancy or via time increase have a better aura. OR have a second upgrade requiring higher CP In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Eastern Front Armies Revamp 23 May 2017, 08:41 AM Jump back to quoted post20 May 2017, 23:43 PMmiragefla Rapid Conscription Excessively-long duration for squad-replacement abilities makes counterplay infeasible. We are addressing this issue. -Reduce duration of the ability from 120 to 70 Replace Conscripts with a new unit. The unit is similar to Conscripts but it can not reinforce and it offer small amount of heal when merged. This change will help reduce the abuse of the ability while keep it it interesting since one will be able to continue his attack with reinforcement (via merge) he will receive. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Eastern Front Armies Revamp 23 May 2017, 08:33 AM Jump back to quoted post20 May 2017, 23:43 PMmiragefla B4 Redirecting some manpower costs to fuel costs will help long-term sustainability for howitzers, especially for 1v1. We are experimenting with making B4 shots connect more reliably, while creating avenues for counterplay. -Cost changed from 600MP to 400MP/50FU -Popcap to 15 -2 Shells, 10 second cooldown between them -320 damage each shell -Second shell received -50% scatter bonus -Near distance from 2.5 to 1.75 -Angle scatter reduced from 9.25 to 8 -FoW multiplier increased from 1.25 to 2 Should check ROF at vet might be too high. Suggestion: 1) Increase rotation speed lower the vet bonus rotations speed to make unit more consistent 2) try increasing the speed of entities my make unit more responsive 3) Replace direct fire ability with skill shot similar to Pershing/Tullip make it an AP round not a HE Maybe consider all howitzer/rocket arty not to be able to aim base sector.

Not sure this is desirable tho I know but we are trying normalize repair speeds across factions. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Eastern Front Armies Revamp 23 May 2017, 07:21 AM Jump back to quoted post20 May 2017, 23:43 PMmiragefla KV-1 We are experimenting with giving KV-1 more health to assist with its meatshield role. -Added a 0.8333333 received damage multiplier (effectively increases health from 800 to 960) -Vet 1 to "Defense Mode" from "Capture Point". Defense mode halts all movement of the tank in exchange for -0.8 recieved damage and lowers reload speed by 0.85 (with a delay of 5 seconds) Why complicated things with a damage reduction if the units need 960 HP bring HP to 960. In addition fix the veterancy bonus, It should vet as heavy tank thus its durability should increase with vet. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: jagdtiger APCBDC ACDC HIGHWAY TO HELL SHELLS22 May 2017, 16:42 PM Jump back to quoted post22 May 2017, 15:04 PMAvNY Clearly Nazi technology was superior to even what we have 70 years later. ~s Even by game standards this argument doesn't make sense. Firing through a building means going through at least 2 and probably many more walls (of various construction) and would still have affected projectile speed, trajectory and probably stability. A tumbling projectile will not have the same effect, which is pretty much the whole purpose of rifling or fin-stabilization. The argument for a bunker busting projectile from a 152 makes a bit more sense, but probably still shouldn't be in a game where shot blockers are so important. Actually there are historical reports of German heavy TDs firing thru walls. The high speed projectiles where hardly affected from few bricks and could actually destroy the average allied tank with easy. In: COH2 Balance
