Thread: Mortar veterancy9 Nov 2019, 13:26 PM Imo a veterancy overhaul is long over due. Although some vet 1 abilities have been improved there is still work to do and the relationship of units seem to change once vet bonuses kick many times in favor of unit with lower XP value. Currently some of the worst vet bonuses imo can be find in mortar type weapons: m1_81mm_mortar_squad_mp m1_75mm_pack_howitzer_squad_mp brit_3_inch_mortar_team_commander_mp mortar_team_81mm_mp hm-120_38_mortar_squad_mp pm-82_41_mortar_squad_mp le_ig_18_inf_support_gun_squad_mp The majority of the bonus are mediocre at best other than Heat rounds/WP x150% health. Leig imo gets some of the worse vet bonues. I know that the mod team wanted to tone down mortars but currently their performance across vet bonuses is simply not good enough. If one does not want to increase the offensive power of these weapons there many way to increase their utility and defensive attitudes. Vet bonuses could include: Reduction of munition for abilities like flares/ WP barrages etch Reduction in pop as this weapons start losing their potency Improvements in time before delivering smoke or other barrages tear up tear down bonuses damage reduction for crews or target size speed bonuses for howitzer that can not retreat improvements in vs cover/garrison modifiers Far damage improvements for better vs hold damage Faster projectile velocity In: Lobby
Thread: Zis Barrage9 Nov 2019, 12:42 PM The change I would try would be the following: Move barrage to vet 1 Reason: Currently makes mortars less attractive since it can substitute them from the start for low MU cost. Remove tracking from the unit: The ability combined with barrages allows accurate targeting via mini map information. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Give m20 crew zook upgrade9 Nov 2019, 11:56 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Nov 2019, 08:27 AMrqd Current m20 is easily countered due to timing nerf and crew zook removal, especially by wermacht 222s. So I think we could bring the crew zook back at a price of 50 mu? Skirts cost 70 mu so the power of m20 is still limited by muni income, and to get the upgrade you need to decrew m20 first and waiting for crew upgrade to complete...then it won't have timing issues. Miss this unique feature of m20, hope we can restore it in some other form You want bazooka for the crew? unlock the raks and buy then...there unique feature restored. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Balancing the Jackson(and USF AT options)9 Nov 2019, 11:54 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Nov 2019, 07:22 AMblancat Does penetration increase when shooting while on the move? Good moving accuracy is useless if you can't penetrate enemy armor Attacking the flanks is actually difficult and most of them are killed by AT guns in the rear Does a shots, that does not hit, penetrate? In order to penetrate you need to hit the target first , do you want to know what chance a PzIV has to hit a Sherman while the PzIV is moving and what chance a Sherman has to hit a PzIV if the sherman is moving?

Thread: USF Pak Howtizer Still Overperforming8 Nov 2019, 19:19 PM It used to go up to 160 once it reaches vet 3. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Zis Barrage8 Nov 2019, 19:15 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Nov 2019, 18:50 PMWingZero The Zis barrage number of shells was nerfed and increased in muni cost. I think the AT gun is balanced and if a player spam these abilities you know for damn sure he/she will be muni starved the whole game! That information is incorrect the number of shots was reduced especially since the last 2 shots where ineffective vs no building target and the munition cost was decreased. That was 2 years ago. The most recent change was to decrease the chance to kills but increase the chance to serious health damage. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Rear Echlon Melee Mode AKA rifle grenade upgrade8 Nov 2019, 16:48 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Nov 2019, 16:31 PMLago There's definitely a case for making RET grenades manually targeted if only for parity of micro, but that game's not won by RET grenades. Can say allot about the game since I have not watched and with out the final result on damage done it is difficult to say. On the other hand there 2 RE that have reached vet 2 by 6:30 so they must have done plenty of damage. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: reworking TD and giving them a role 8 Nov 2019, 14:11 PM Another problem is current state of TDs is the combination of high base stat and high vet bonuses that end in ridiculous results: SU-85 Accuracy 0.072/0.059/0.052 chance to hit PzIV 100% Penetration 312/299/286 chance to penetrate Tiger 95.3% ROF 4.57 M-36 Accuracy 0.065/0.059/0.046 chance to hit PzIV 100% Penetration 338/312/286 chance to penetrate Tiger 95.3% ROF 5.05 HAVP Damage 200 Accuracy 0.078/0.065/0.052 chance to hit PzIV 100% Penetration 390/364/325 chance to penetrate King Tiger 86.7% ROF 5.53 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Rear Echlon Melee Mode AKA rifle grenade upgrade8 Nov 2019, 13:22 PM Another option for the ability would be to removed auto fire and have is a a free ability that one has to aim. In: COH2 Gameplay
