Thread: How to reducing USF's reliance on Jackson28 Feb 2020, 11:08 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Feb 2020, 11:06 AMT.R. Stormjäger 1) Assault Engineers are currently bugged and their Received Accuracy does not go down to 0.9 at vet 1. This is getting fixed. 2) The Jackson is too dominant agianst mediums and Tigers are meta, so there’s no medium tank play for the M10 to contribute against. This should improve with the Tiger nerfs and could further improve if the Jackson loses rate of fire and gets more penetration to become more anti-heavy oriented. Do you have any idea what Penetration the M36 has at vet 3? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: How to reducing USF's reliance on Jackson28 Feb 2020, 11:02 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Feb 2020, 09:55 AMEsxile The simple change I have in mind: Sherman M4A3 with a new upgrade for a certain amount of munition. Locks out AI mode and increase the penetration of AT mode so it can deal reliably with Pz4s (with skirts). Obviously this would make Sherman 76 and Ez8 redundant in their current version but with the appropriate nerf to Jackson so it can't trade off anymore with mediums so easily there is maybe some other space for them to fulfill. Edit: Ez8 could become a Pershing alike but dedicated to AT or a panther version for USF, limited to one at time Sherman 76, no idea yet. In other words a M4A3 Sherman should obliterate infatry and when the enemy builds a 380/140 Panzer J the 340/110 M4A3 Sherman should be able to spend some munition and "deal reliably" with that more expansive PzIV. And since this road with make other version of Sherman redundant we should then buff them even more... Nope that does not sound as a good idea... In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: How to reducing USF's reliance on Jackson28 Feb 2020, 09:16 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Feb 2020, 08:24 AMblancat Jackson is very strong, but the USF has no choice but Jackson If Jackson is nerfed, the USF faction itself can fall So we need to give the USF new options and nerf Jackson ... This is a just hypothesis, so one can simply nerf the M36 especially its 60 range performance and see what happens. The majority of USF doctrinal units are excellent but they see little action and a contributing factor is because the M4A3 Sherman+M36 combo is simply too cost efficient. 105mm Bulldozer Sherman (380/140) is at least as cost efficient if not more than the more expensive Brumbar (400/150) M4A3 dozer upgraded (390/130), M4A3(76) Sherman (380/125), Sherman Easy8 (380/140) are all more cost efficient than Ostheer PzIV J (380/140) And the M10 is great with abilities available to it. USF vehicles hardly need any buffs. If there is Ostheer T3 units become too dominant vs USF and that is a big if, other option should explored. That is why I suggested making the stock Sherman better vs PvIV (while removing the HE to open the way for doctrinal units) and nerfing M36 vs PzIV. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: USF Doctrinal T0 units and alternatives to Riflemen.28 Feb 2020, 09:09 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Feb 2020, 08:36 AMDoomlord52 ...Even though you're 'joking', the M36's 60 rear armor gives Grens a 1.667% chance to pen at point blank. They're not comparable in any sense. Just to clarify, the game does not "roll" chances bellow 3%, vehicles with armor above 30 are immune to weapon with penetration of 1. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: To the patch team27 Feb 2020, 12:09 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2020, 11:21 AMblvckdream Why would you nerf OKW at this point. They are already weaker than USF and Soviets. I actually find it easier to play vs OKW than Ostheer in 2v2. OKW is extremely predictable and can be beaten at their own game by simply out spamming and out blobbing them. The OKW Tiger was the only thing that made OKW good and now it's getting a quadruple nerf. Not just that you can also endlessly bully OKW on linear maps by getting MG+sniper. Ostheer is way more versatile, unpredictable and capable of countering certain strategies. Will have to see where OKW will land, my point is that USF/Soviet have received continues bonuses because they had trouble dealing with OKW and that should simply stop... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: To the patch team27 Feb 2020, 11:15 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2020, 11:03 AMblvckdream From my test games with the winter mod, I don't think UKF will be anywhere near the power level of USF and Soviets in 1v1 and to a lesser extend in 2v2. The basic problems of UKF will not change. They will still be very good against OKW on open long-range maps and will still suck against Wehrmacht in general and also suck vs OKW on maps with lots of shot-blockers like Kholodny, Elst, etc. I really don't think they will change that much. 4 Cons into T70 or USF rifle spam with Pak Howi + LV is still going to be way better than anything UKF can come up with. And that is why OKW USF and Soviet need to be nerfed and not wer/UKF buffed... In: COH2 Balance
