Allied faction got buffed to deal with OKW and left Ostheer struggling. The solution is simple stop buffing unit and start nerfing. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Soviet Infantry Design17 May 2019, 19:36 PM Jump back to quoted post17 May 2019, 18:55 PMJae For Jett ... There also isn't an issue with captured weapons because (again) cons accuracy bonuses aren't anything special, they have an accuracy penalty on slot weapons, and they only have one weapon slot (iirc). If you wanted to say that cons need weapon upgrades because them relying on vet bonuses necessarily causes issues, you haven't really established that. Are you sure about the penalty on slot weapons? As far as I know only ostrruppen have one. In: COH2 Gameplay

In other cases Merge don't be pleasant for player, it still rare ability for some specific situations. Because right now reinforce cost of cons - 20MP. Cost for maxim -20 and mortar-20. You don't get any bonuses from Merge. Game don't rewarding you. It will be OP if maxim was good. But we all know what maxim is. If consider current variant with 7-th man and buffs...How supposed to play through cons from early to late, until to T4 (especially versus OKW)? Suffer from MP drain and hoping that enemy will be more noob than you? What if you in hard situation on fuel and can't get your T4 right now? Cons become stone on your neck and much more safety option will be the same penals. It will be more risky opening than good, old penals, without hope get in lategame something powerfull. That why in my opinion that 7-th man upgrade don't work. The claim is inaccurate. You actually get a bonus for merging with HMG/Mortar: 1) You reinforce on the field 2) You get better target size In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Soviet Infantry Design17 May 2019, 15:25 PM Jump back to quoted post17 May 2019, 12:26 PMSeductiveCardbordBox Soviet infantry is in a strange spot.... Partially agree with analysis of the problem but disagree with the solution. For instance: There is little reason for PTRS to be available stock to both Penal and Conscript. There is little reason for 6 men squad with 4 PTRS especially with nearly 100% chance to hit vehicles and deflection damage by passing to basic mechanics of the game. The direction should be making each infatry bring something different to the table. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Soviet Infantry Design17 May 2019, 15:22 PM Jump back to quoted post17 May 2019, 14:44 PMMaret I said it before - make from cons SU analog of osttruppen with fast and cheap reinforcement. Because all other variants lead to big rework of all SU infantry gameplay. 16MP to reinforce Fast reinforcement passive faster sandbag buildinginstead flare mine (SU have enough units with this ability). Split upgrades:"Cheap reinforce" you get with medic station upgrade. "Faster reinforce" you get with first build building. This makes cons not generalist mainline unit, but better defense and utility and their ability Merge will be very usefull to reinforce team weapon (16 MP is less than standart 20 from team weapons). SU players get possibility choose between cheap cons and better team weapons play and more expensive offensive penal play. To make cons more often used, we should make play through them less painfull. In this case from resource side. This simple approach. Or we just can make full rework with maxims, cons, penals and all elite SU infantry. Being able to merge and reinforce with 16 MP is simply OP especially if compare it with the reinforcement prices of 4 men units. Keep in mind that merging with HMG/Mortars make even more durable.

Thread: Soviet Core changes commander Revamp Patch17 May 2019, 07:32 AM Jump back to quoted post17 May 2019, 05:53 AMCrecer13 From the above, we can conclude that the Conscripts is still not needed in more than one quantity. To throwing AT grenades to him add the ability to seize weapons without losing a squad. But it never bothered me, I’ll just build a fresh squad and send it to capture or I can sacrifice current squad, because besides AT the grenades in the late game are useless. Vetted upganned (especially 2 weapon wielding) infatry are far more powerful than vet 0 infatry with no weapon. This is an issue that is not limited to Soviets. That is part of the reason why people usually do not built grenadiers in late game but pioneers. The upgrade to conscripts already offers many bonuses. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet Core changes commander Revamp Patch16 May 2019, 23:58 PM Jump back to quoted post16 May 2019, 18:17 PMCrecer13 This game is based on spam, spam any unit. So this is not an indicator of the strength of the unit. And that is my point, good solutions are the ones that promote building more than one type of unit. Making conscript spam a viable strategies is not a good solution. In: COH2 Balance
