Thread: Commander KV1 and Easy8 rework idea's25 Mar 2019, 17:04 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Mar 2019, 14:57 PMWingZero KV-1 is not worth the cost to be honest, its main gun is terrible. The only purpose of building this tank is to soak up damage (I would rather build KV-8 for this role). I think the coaxel machine gun needs a bit buff to damage infantry if the tank is useless against tanks. The KV-1 will has a very good chance to beat a PvIV so its in not useless against tanks.

Thread: Soviet - Airbourne feedback25 Mar 2019, 13:35 PM Airborne from a design point of view: CP 2 Airborne rally points 100mp/15fu The ability is very cost efficient. Compared to UKF it is cheaper. Especially in team-games where fuel is easier to get the ability is OP. The ability to drop medic/buff supplies anywhere in the map is simply broken and far better than the Luftwaffe one. CP 2 Paradrop Dshk HMG 125mp/50mu At first glance the ability look fine but it can become really problematic due to Soviet support weapons mechanics. Manning these weapon with Penals/Airborne Guards will make Dhsk unflankable and with high DPS. Especially with the wider arc and sprint. Sprint should simply be removed. With the increase in penetration the AP rounds could easily become a vet 1 ability (that could be moved to vet 1 for 0.5). The vet bonuses should also be look at because the vet 3 close DPS is still very high. CP 3 Airborne Guards 360mp Creating the ultimate long range unit for soviet with access to the "last man standing" and medical/buff drops is simply a step in the wrong direction since Ostheer luck any infatry that can fight this unit and even obers might be in trouble. Each faction has a strong range and this unit mess thing up. The unit should bring something else to the table or the AI of regular Guard should simply be reduce (by making PTRS able to hit infatry only during "hit the ground", changed to timed ability for instance). Maybe redesign the unit to be closer to IR&Pathfinder able to call in toned down off maps? The ourah should be avoided in long range infatry since it can be used to kite CQC units, and the smoke grenades seem rather odd. The smoke mechanism feels weird and can cause some issue allowing the unit to bypass enemy HMG and enter enemy base.If it is a animation issues change them to infiltration unit or built in airborne rally point? CP 2 Airdrop weapons 45mu This is a can of worms, for reason listed in previous post (difficult to be balance for all units that can pick it up,and so on...)pls do not open the can. CP 10 IL-2 Sturmovik Rocket Run 100mu The ability can prove power when used with ram. In addition it seems good at killing support weapons, maybe change the damage similar to Tulips? In: Lobby
Thread: Wehrmacht - Strategic Reserves - Feedback25 Mar 2019, 11:37 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Mar 2019, 11:18 AMVonManteuffel Hey folks, ... The PzIV J has a bit better scatter also but weather it worth a ability slot is questionable. I would suggest actually increasing the Penetration of the main gun or giving the unit tungsten rounds (similar to 76mm Sherman) since the PzIV is quite bad vs anything above Cromwell/vanilla Sherman/T-34/76. That could make the unit worth it. Else one could try replacing it with hezter or JP4. I do agree that chance to hit and penetrate by the the allied TDs make axis armor advantage no worth it and most axis tanks would perform better if their armor vet bonus was replaced with something else.

Thread: Ostheer off map arty is trash.25 Mar 2019, 11:29 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Mar 2019, 11:18 AMdasheepeh you should also consider sector artillery (200mun or 225mun?) it's way too expensive and situational (only usable in owned sectors, and since most sectors are quite small, it's usually very easy to simply leave the sector for a short while) Sector artillery is actually OP, it works for all connected adjacent sectors.

Thread: Poll for hotly debated units in new commanders.25 Mar 2019, 09:13 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Mar 2019, 00:04 AMTiger Baron I wouldn't consider the bulldozer as a strong ability and the lend-lease one with the M5 halftrack is an error on my part since it should just say replace. Apart from that the M5 Stuart bundle just follows the logic of the USF Mech Company, nothing more. The Mech Logic is simply flawed. First the buffed the WC51 to be worth a single slot then the bundle with the also buffed m3. First the bundle dozer with the Sherman 76mm then the buff the Sherman and combine the vet 1 ability of the USF tanks with the superior T-34/76 vet bonuses. The bundle should be used but only to fine tune commander and bring the at same power level. Not to create OP commanders and try to fix balance issues of factions. In: COH2 Gameplay

Nice to see that can admit a mistake. Jump back to quoted post24 Mar 2019, 23:36 PMKatitof My original point still stands. And what point might that be? In: Lobby

Check my post I have provide the DPS increase at range 0/10/20/30/35. You have claimed that ST44 increase the DPS 5.8 pls provide the ranges where it does and the source. In: Lobby
Thread: Soviet - Airbourne feedback24 Mar 2019, 23:23 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Mar 2019, 23:20 PMKatitof Volk STGs add 5 DPS PER RIFLE. SVTs add 4,5 AS A PACKAGE OF 3. At what range? Cherry picking ranges now? Actually at range 35 the ST has less DPS than the K98 (range 35 ST 1.446 K98 1.807 source Cruzz) Your number might not wrong (it not even worth checking), "but they most certainly do not tell full story."
