Thread: I haven't seen a Soviet AT gun in at least six months.13 Nov 2018, 17:53 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Nov 2018, 17:35 PMblvckdream Check the stats. Guard Mosin has more DPS than guard PTRS at any range. What is your source of stats? Because you are wrong. In: COH2 Balance

I think many of us saw ocassions when players decided to not pick up dropped PTRSes just to have that extra Mosin rifles. Mosin has only better DPS below 10 meters and can fire on the move. Not sure why one would not pick up a guards PTRS. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Volks are disgustingly good, need toning down.13 Nov 2018, 16:17 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Nov 2018, 16:07 PMdistrofio I agree with that reason, specially the side tech or package upgrade. Now normal grenade on volks + mp40 or STG44 its a lot of rush potential. Now flamenade denies that land even for volks. If you delay too much stgs volks will end up loosing mid and lategame, or in other words useless after early game ends. As they are now, they win early and blob midgame, the latter being the main problem. Delaying too much sounds too harsh since obers take too much time to land the battlefield. The timed ability sounds good, that way they demand more micro and less oportunity to blob them. It will need testing but VG should be able to trade off good at long range and use the explosive grenades to delay enemy rushes. Once the VG are toned down one could start toning down or redesigning other OP units like Penal/Guards. Having strong lethal units in the early game takes out too much out of infantry play that should be more about tactics and relative positioning. It also makes CQC units far less effective.

If you want real reserve infantry then the Osttruppen are your guys. Everything else sounds good tho. Ok they where closer to militia, they would be a nice addition thou. In: COH2 Gameplay

Currently reinforcement times (and cost) are all completely inconstant with some units following the reinforcement cost rule while other not. For instance pg reinforce to slow while Osttruppen too fast. Suggestions: Standardize reinforcement time across all the board(and cost probably with assault infantry have a discount) according to unit "type" from longer to sorter: Support weapons (mg/mortars) "Elite" infantry mainline infantry Support units In addition currently JLI (and storm-troopers) have very little shock value for using infiltration since they come rifles. Suggestion: 1) Allow all infiltration units to be build from base for normal cost and add a premium when these are called in to spawn from ambient building. 2) JLI could spawn with the G43 to allow them to counter sniper more effectively. 3) Add utility to JLI and Pathfinders by adding counter sniper ability. Unit has a hold fire ability that allow the unit to fire only vs sniper. In: Lobby

Previously they used the demolition charge profile. ... Change damage of booby traps from explosive to incendiary so they can delay enemy capping territories. Remove booby traps from obers (there no real reason to be available to them). Allow conscripts to build the doctrinal booby traps since engineer can already built mines/demo. In: Lobby

Requires AEC or Bofors. 60 second build time. Armor to 80/50 from 120/80 (Stuart) ... The units is extremely fast, has a small size, gets faster with veterancy to makes things even worse both properties can be further buff with warspeed. The Combination with "victor" the ability is simply bad. Suggestions: 1) Redesigning the unit to be closer to real life valentine as a mini Churchill. 2) Revamp the veterancy bonuses. 3) Make the spotting and victor an upgrade similar to "command tank" and limit to 1 adding penalties if needed. 4) Replace the Croc in tactical commander so that the commanders has a good candidate as command tank.

Close penetration is still way to high, it higher than that of PzIV. Keep in mind that a PzIV has to flank a KV-8 to have a decent chance to penetrate the rear/side armor but by doing so it probably also expose it own rear/side armor and the KV-8 will still retain the advantage of penetration chance. The PzIV should be able to have an advantage if it successfully flanks a KV tank. In: Lobby
Thread: New Commander concepts.13 Nov 2018, 12:17 PM Ostheer "Army reserves Doctrine" or "Valkyrie Doctrine". Concept: army made of second line troops and night fighting troops. 1) CP 0 PzIV D available to be built from t3 at a similar cost of the T-34 or called in at CP 9 for higher cost. 2 fire modes direct and direct. Indirect mode similar to STUG-E , Direct fire mode normal shells with low penetration but 40 damage deflection damage. 2) CP 2 Volksstrumm 5-6 to men squad armed with K98 total DPS around that of grenadiers. Able to use 2 panzerfaust AT weapons (not snare, about bazooka level) these weapons can be put away similar to SP minesweeper. Can also lay shue mines. (Can be used to merge ?) 3) CP 2 PaK 36 158 weapon similar to soviet M-42 able to fire the Stielgranate 41 (if possible) single shot for high penetration. 4) 2CP Panzer Tactician 5)CP 3 Night fighting training. 251 can now be upgrade to Sdkfz 251/20 Half-track w/Infrared Searchligh. A timed ability that stop the rotation of the search light and works similar to "hammer Vehicle Tracking" for units being hit while under the searchlight's beam. PGs can not upgrade their ST44 to vamp weapon gain 5% accuracy but do more damage to units in cover/garrison when "painted" by 251. Panther can now upgrade to nightfinging gaining accuracy vs "painted" targets. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Volks are disgustingly good, need toning down.13 Nov 2018, 10:56 AM My suggestion for VG would be: 1) Replace Flame-grenade with normal grenade. The flame grenade could be moved to SP (if they become cheaper (2MP+2MP44) or available with a non doctrinal MP40 upgrade, so that they can fight garrison easier. (Further anti-garrion option could be a direct fire option Leig with sorter range, and a WP shell for puma or a redesigned walking stuka) Reason: Mainline infantry should not have easy access to anti-cover/anti-garrison tools. 2) Remove sandbags from all mainline infantry and/or greatly increase build time when done by non engineer squads. Reason: Green cover should not be so easily available. People should be able to take advantage of the map and not built cover where ever they want easily. 3) Redesign the ST44 upgrade. ST44 upgrade now requires 2 truck set up and give 5 ST44 on semi auto mod. The performance is similar to "carbine" semi auto rifle. They have a timed ability allowing them to use full auto with a performance similar to PG ST44. Reason: The ST44 if closer to real performance and easier for player to understand the use of it. In addition the unit can now support long range units like Obers or non upgraded VG from being overrun by allied infantry. Making the increased performance a timed one will prevent blobing.
