Thread: Commissar abilities bug6 Jan 2022, 10:19 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Jan 2022, 10:17 AMKatukov hold the line is basically useless as you slow down the sniper not one step back grants the ability a marginal, slight rate of fire bonus that is basically indistinguishable from the normal sniper. It also makes the sniper more vulnerable to incoming fire a bug that really doesn't impact gameplay much, if at all It a bug and it should be removed. You are also wrong about the bonuses and their impact... In: COH2 Bugs

Thread: Establish retreat point28 Dec 2021, 20:18 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Dec 2021, 20:02 PMRosbone Not taking sides. Just want to point out it is mostly not a problem because when a map gets reworked that is one of the first things that gets removed. The VP territory size is reduced and any sight blockers are removed where the Major could hide. So it is a problem mechanic as pointed out, but not currently a problem thanks to map reworks. Back to arguing.... Yet there are still map with big enough VPs areas. And there are no sides only what should be in the game and what not. In: Lobby
Thread: Establish retreat point28 Dec 2021, 17:32 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Dec 2021, 16:14 PMProtos Angelus It has a long cooldown, no really relevant Jump back to quoted post28 Dec 2021, 16:14 PMProtos Angelus good luck locking down a VP point with a high RA, 3 model unit that dies easily. I never suggest that major should be left alone to lock a sector so again not really relevant Jump back to quoted post28 Dec 2021, 16:14 PMProtos Angelus You lock it down for 20 seconds before shells come raining down. not really relevant Jump back to quoted post28 Dec 2021, 16:14 PMProtos Angelus Don't know of a map where the VP point is a large enough area that you could be somewhat safe if established on the margin or the area. Well there are such maps Jump back to quoted post28 Dec 2021, 16:14 PMProtos Angelus What a BS post. It is a strong ability, but given how major is the only viable recon unit if one does not have paths, you shouldn't use it as a retreat point on all but the largest maps (eg. steppes). Of course, now you will say that USF has M20 for recon and you will be correct but also dumb AF so I'll leave it at this. Completely misleading: Major can/should and is used as a retreat point he can still be used for recon from anywhere on the maps since he can call in planes You have also failed to post a single reason why in your opinion he should be able to lock VP sectors.

Thread: Establish retreat point28 Dec 2021, 16:05 PM Major's "Establish retreat point" is a powerful ability. At vet 3 it becomes even more powerful since it lock down sectors. Oddly enough the ability can be used on VP sector locking down the VPs. The ability needs to be looked at and at least the locking of VPs should be removed. In: Lobby

Thread: Coh 2 game director Quinn Duffy left relic26 Dec 2021, 13:43 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Dec 2021, 13:29 PMKasarov What choice is there in war? If Relic wanted to portray the grit of the Soviet soldier, why insert this line and ruin Soldier 1's bravery? By inserting this line, Relic is instead downplaying Soldier 1's bravery. And on top of that, why did the commissar execute the stranger behind Isakovich, which prompted him to remark on the enemy saving bullets in the first place? Heavily implied to be under charges of cowardice. In CoH1, Americans and British bravely fought on foreign soil for strangers, but Soviets in Stalingrad were driven not by home, friends, family, or revenge, but Order 227 and a fear of death. When the maximum length of servitude was 3 months and many returned to their units afterwards. Why many didn't survive the war is because Penal Battalions were overwhelmingly early-mid war formations when the Soviets were still struggling. You might as well say that joining any Soviet military unit in the years of 1941-1943 is a death sentence. Very few enlisted men from 1941 survived too. EDIT: Quinn Duffy and his team has tried to paint the Russians in the worst light possible. If you insist the game is 'historically balanced' as he calls it, we'll just have to agree to disagree. I'm extremely happy that Quinn Duffy has left. CoH3 will be better without petty politics and disrespectful slander. Once more I am not trying to defend Relic, Quinn Duffy or anyone else. Imo none of what you have pointed out depicts the Soviet solider as a coward. Cowards do not fight and in the game Russian soldier fight even against impossible odds. Imo criticism (weather justified or not or even accurate is another story) aim at the high command and not at the foot soldiers. In: Lobby
Thread: Coh 2 game director Quinn Duffy left relic26 Dec 2021, 13:03 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Dec 2021, 12:46 PMCrecer13 ... I am not here to defend Relic or claim that everything in COH2 are historically accurate. I have simply asked what part of the game depict the foot soldiers of the Red army as cowards. If in your opinion there are such parts pls identify them because I have a hard time finding them. In: Lobby
