Thread: USA September patch discussion6 Sep 2019, 09:23 AM RE DPS is fine. They also get many veterancy fighting bonuses: +20% accuracy -23% received accuracy, -20% weapon cooldown Increases the squad's size to 5 In addition they can get rack weapons and carry weapons and minesweepers. The units is cost efficient. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW September patch discussion5 Sep 2019, 21:43 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Sep 2019, 19:51 PMSander93 We decided to throw in some Jagdtiger changes. They are quite extensive but there will be no more updates to the balance mod, so I'll post the preliminary changes here to discuss. Vet 5 could allow the unit to fire on the move. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What faction and modus get played most / less!5 Sep 2019, 21:35 PM One has to factor in also how many people actually own each faction if one want to draw any conclusions. In: Lobby
Thread: Changes to Wehrmacht's Storm commander5 Sep 2019, 15:06 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Sep 2019, 14:36 PMSmartie Because Stormtroopers in their role as infiltration units would fit to the theme imo. You could also replace the Riegel with Assgrens or the OKW Sturmoffizier, units that would make a lot of sense too from a theme and design perspective. was just playing with words In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Changes to Wehrmacht's Storm commander5 Sep 2019, 14:31 PM Now why would storm commander have stormtroopers? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What faction and modus get played most / less!5 Sep 2019, 14:04 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Sep 2019, 13:41 PMSturmTigerVorgo Let's take a simple example to show to you that you really don't know what you are asking: Lets assume grens and cons are perfectly balanced in 1v1. What change do they need to make to balance them in 2v2? My point is if the factions are perfectly balanced in 1v1 why they need to be balanced in 2v2? How are they umbalanced? Many reason like: Different economy of fuel and CP across modes Different design and synergy. For instance IS and Penal are very powerful but if one built them cap slower. In 2vs2 the other player can produce more unit to cap fast and let his teammate do the heavy fighting or support him team weapons in fortified positions. In: Lobby
Thread: Changes to Wehrmacht's Storm commander5 Sep 2019, 12:16 PM If the schu mine get the go ahead the riegel ability should be improved. Suggestions: Available to Pioneers also Decrease plant time with veterancy like with m20. Or one could scrap the stock schu mine and make the ability give schu to vehicles and Riegel to pioneers In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Advanced Warfare Tactics5 Sep 2019, 10:01 AM Maybe one could add a second weapon with a couple of shot that track in skill shots so that they can deliver more consistent damage. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF Sherman 76 mm - Who needs it?4 Sep 2019, 21:05 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Sep 2019, 20:28 PMMazianni One round has better stats (accuracy, penetration, ROF), one round does not... Do you believe the fact that an Easy 8 does not have to switch rounds makes it more effective versus armor than the 76mm? Versus something like a Panther? I ask because the 76mm Sherman would outdps the Easy Eight versus a Panzer IV as a given, a scenario where the Easy Eight would have to rely on it's superior durability, primarily it's 55 extra armor, a stat which is not nearly as useful versus anything heavier than one. The Easy8 does have better chance of wining. It will has a bit less DPS but far more durability. Jump back to quoted post4 Sep 2019, 20:28 PMMazianni Re the edit concerning the PzIV J; This vehicle has better armor and better AI than either tank. And far worse penetration. In addition it will probably lose vs both tanks although it has similar price. Finally its advantage in armor and AI over the normal PanzerIV is not worth it. Both 76mm and Easy8 are superior vehicles. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF Sherman 76 mm - Who needs it?4 Sep 2019, 20:20 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Sep 2019, 20:12 PMMazianni If you're using HVAP against a target where AOE is more useful than penetration, you've made a mistake, and the HVAP round has much better penetration and a faster ROF than the M4A3E8's main gun. Taking an extra hit with the extra 80hp is nice, but the Easy 8 is also slower and more expensive than the 76mm Sherman. Reload time for for HVAP is 6.1 vs 6-6.6 average 6.3 the difference is minimal. Penetration fer is around 6% better so I wouldn't call "much" better but that is just me. One has to switch munition the other does not...(on another note for quite some time some people claimed that Sherman was inferior because it could use HE rounds ) Not only it has more HP but more armor. A Easy8 has allot better chance vs PzIV than the 76mm. Both units are fine and both units are more cost efficient than PzIV J In: COH2 Balance
