Thread: Brummbar too potent against mediums28 Sep 2019, 08:13 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Sep 2019, 03:32 AMrqd It is strange that a non-doc heavy tank which excels at killing infantry has better penertration stats than a t-34-76. Is it intended? I mean, doctrinal 105 Sherman has only 35 pen. Both The 105 and the brumbar has deflection damage so they always do damage. On the other hand the Dozer upgrade Shermans have have switchable munition having both AT and great AI. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Kv2 Underperforming?27 Sep 2019, 23:18 PM KV-2 in siege MOD need to minimum range reduce or removed there is little indication for user to understand that a target has move with in minimum range. The unit on the other hand get very strong vet bonuses. In: COH2 Balance

They lose really badly where the normal Cons don't lose too badly. It'd be helpful to normalize the damage so that they aren't worse than standard Cons. Now test AT PF vs conscripts.

Thread: Redesigning OKW truck 27 Sep 2019, 22:09 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2019, 18:41 PMelchino7 ...i would rather the Stuka be changed to work as a mortar HT with barrage only (flame kind) for the mid game and the HE shells be unlocked once the T3 is setup and some level of teching been unlocked. Then you could just upgrade the Stuka for a similar total cost as other rocket artillery. ... I did not make suggestion on the units so I can keep on trucks, but I had a similar suggestion about the Stuka. One could even try other thing like mortar half truck in truck ,2 stuka at truck 3 and ober at Hq. But this has more do to do with balance and less with tracks designs. My point here since OKW have less and less reason for aggressive track placement one should make it a choice for the player either to invest more and go for aggressive placement or spent less and use them as regular buildings. One could even make some of these upgrades (like FRP/engineers/AA gun) cost more but also increase HP/armor of the track. In: Lobby

Thread: Rifles overperforming?27 Sep 2019, 22:01 PM One could also do another approach where one would have the option to promote officer. For instance one could get a MP discount for promoting LT to captain or captain to Major. One could might need to remove the units from the map with mechanism similar to refit. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Super heavy tanks changes.27 Sep 2019, 21:55 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2019, 20:26 PMGrumpy JP4's do just fine against IS2's on most maps. They bounce once in awhile but always seem to hit. The IS2 misses it probably more than the JP4 bounces off the IS2. Also, since they made the Command Panther tied to the Schwerer, Spec Ops isn't that great. I still sometimes have it in my loadout for arranged teams but don't use it when playing with randoms. I'd need to be sure that I was going to get a lot out of arty flares before I gave up Falls, Pf's, or JLI's. JP vs IS-2 has 45% chance to penetrate at range 60 and 52% at range 45 so is doubt it bounces "once and while". The IS-2 has 68% chance to score a "natural" hit at max range. In: Lobby
Thread: Rifles overperforming?27 Sep 2019, 17:53 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2019, 15:54 PMelchino7 This is the most recent one. IIRC something similar was said years ago. The promotion to an officer does not need to be option it can be mandatory and and a prerequest for unlocking the tech. The idea would that one would not be forced to have an extra unit.

Thread: Redesigning OKW truck 27 Sep 2019, 17:36 PM OKW started with a completely different design ( aggressive start weak mid and strong late game) and have seen a number of changes. One of the things that has not seen many changes is their tracks. With the latest changes to USF tech and OKW early game imo one has to reevaluate OKW truck and their uses. These trucks at some point where used as forward bases for OKW to help control them. Currently there is little reason to risk truck emplacement outside the base since the cost of losing truck (like access to weapons upgrades and access to to vehicles both doctrinal and stock is simply to high). In previous patches one was paying for instance for the ability to reinforce from the medic truck which is completely useless if the truck is places in the base or for T4 gun which again sees little action if the track is placed in base. My suggestions aim at pricing Trucks accordingly to use and making OKW tech tree more flexible with more tools in adjusting cost. T1 truck: Changes: No longer reinforce Now comes with medics Unlocks only Leig Reasons: OKW medic are simply over priced especially if one built the truck in base. Upgrades: Vehicle access (tech level 2): Unlock the UHU and AA HT. Reason this will allow the AA HT to balanced better and reduce some of its cost. FRW now also unlocks reinforcement. The FRW is simply overprices combined with the reinforcement it is better priced. So of the cost of medic could also be moved here it is necessary. T2 Truck: Changes: Cost changed to be the same with the T1 No provides only access to the Puma Reason: since HMG/weapons upgrades/ faust is tied to track having delay access to them by going t2 makes little sense. Puma will also help OKW in the AT department. Upgrades: Light tank access (tech level 2) Now give access to the Luch. One can re-balance cost and time to built of the Luch. Engineers Now also provides access to the Stuka. More tools to better balance cost, tech cost and timing of the Stuka. Truck T3 Provides access to Obers Upgrades: Vehicles authorization (tech level 2) Now gives access to JP Panzer authorization (tech level 3) giving access to PzIV and Panther. AA Gun The gun is separate upgrade but the gun can not be target by players and AA becomes a toggle mode. Other changes: Faust/Hmg34/RW requires truck built not set up. Doctrinal weapons like ST44 and Fg42 require number of trucks or truck level 2 and not only Panzer Authorization. Hezter/Ostwind are built from HQ and require tracks with certain tech level and not T4 Tech levels are unlock permanently and can not be lost. One can not lose access to JT (and other call-in). These changes aim at better balancing OKW truck and adjusting cost according to the use a player makes. In: Lobby
