Thread: Stormtroopers 5th man at vet3?2 Mar 2020, 09:01 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2020, 08:58 AMKatitof That's because commandos go against armies with weapons designed to kill 5 and 6 model squads and storms go against armies with weapons designed to kill mostly 4 man squads and have a singular examples of 5 and 6? There are no small arm weapons specifically designed to kill 5 or 6 models.... Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2020, 08:58 AMKatitof There is no issue here. Yes there is Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2020, 08:58 AMKatitof So are conscripts and osttruppen. Or grens and tommies. Or shermans and P4s. Or HMG42 and maxims. Or obers and LMG paras. Or M15 and 251 flak. Or kubel and M3. Or Tiger and IS-2. Yet they still perform vastly different and have their own unique advantages and disadvantages. Another derail attempt with issue completely irrelevant to storm troopers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Stormtroopers 5th man at vet3?2 Mar 2020, 08:50 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2020, 08:20 AMKatitof Its a CQC ambush unit with camo. It choses when you engage, not opponent, therefore DPS dropoff is irrelevant, its L2P problem if they don't engage at their optimum distance. DPS drop off is an issue regardless of unit's role or the range it engages. Commandos are CQB "ambush unit with camo" and they still get 5 entities and less DPS drop off.

I'd say they are problematic depending on role. For a frontal assault unit, low durability is an issue. A 4 man shock squad would be crap. For an ambush unit, durability is less of a concern. The problem is not only durability, it also DPS drop off which is very big for storm troopers. Commandos thou not only have 5 entities they also get smoke grenade on retreat for extra durability....

Thread: Brummbar change2 Mar 2020, 07:56 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2020, 00:56 AMthedarkarmadillo I think the brum is going to be problematic to balance with ever increasing accessibility. The easier t4 gets the more lack luster the brum will need to be for potentially come a minute after a p4 would. That is a also a problem since more powerful unit seem to become accessible earlier in the game. In: COH2 Balance

Meanwhile nobody says anything about KV2 having basically 100% deflection damage so basically it'll do full damage to even the superheavies every shot. Well that a inaccurate KV-2 does 120 damage on deflection which is half the normal. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Brummbar change1 Mar 2020, 13:56 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Mar 2020, 13:37 PMMMX how's the former ever a bad thing though? Having to manual aim shots to make the unit useful is unnecessary micro tax to player in an RTS, the game should help the player control his units no hinder them. I could be acceptable if it was consistent across all unit but it not. It would be good desing for a game where a player is controlling a single unit. Having to gain vet 1 with late, expensive high XP unit in order to become cost efficient is bad design. People on the receiving end of the ability complain about the the unit performance (although it the barrage and not the unit) and people trying to use the unit complain about the performance before gaining vet 1.

Thread: Brummbar change1 Mar 2020, 13:24 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Mar 2020, 13:04 PMSander93 ... That simply mean the unit is balanced around micro and a power spike at vet 1. Both characteristics should be removed because they are bad design options. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Brummbar change1 Mar 2020, 11:12 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Mar 2020, 10:32 AMSander93 That would be a huge nerf. It would on other hand removed the power spike Brumbat has at vet 1, add utility similar to AVRE and ST and actually make the ability perform according to its name. As an added bonus it will be closer to real life design/performance. Then one could make any adjustments need for the performance of the unit in Vet 0 that are currently not justifying the cost. Currently the only thing Brumbar has going for it is the "Bunker Busting Barrage" which was also nerfed. In: COH2 Balance
