Thread: 5cp for M8 is too late 20 Nov 2018, 21:02 PM Should usf really get CP for teching up? I mean Ost and Soviet have to reduce map control to doing it but usf actually gets free map control for doing it.... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Weapon upgrades for standard infatry squads20 Nov 2018, 20:56 PM Dp28 doesn't need a buff. It's a package deal always that is rather cheap. Button needs a price drop perhaps, but dp28s are fine as as. But an lmg doesn't suit cons. They are not sit and plink the enemy away troops. Hit the dirt at vet 1 could be nice. Oorah doctrinal with ppshs would be interesting. But cons would still need something or they would still get trounced by the massvly more expensive volks. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 120 mm mortar20 Nov 2018, 11:22 AM Not sure where you are going with this post. Do you want it nerfed? Are you saying this is good given the 360mp price tag? Should it be more lethal if you are always retreating with health? If want discussion you need to start it... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW needs some nerfs don’t you think?20 Nov 2018, 09:59 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Nov 2018, 09:10 AMGrumpy I don't mean buff all units. For example, my wish list for USF would be to undo the vet 3 RA nerf for rifles, undo the suppression nerf for the 50 cal, and do something so that AT guns don't get 1 or 2-shotted by a Stupa. I don't play UKF enough to have an opinion on them, but do think that the list should also be small (maybe even just the snares that you mentioned above). The point that I was trying to make is that I like what Relic is doing now with the smaller, targeted patches and don't think that nerfing OKW as a whole will be helpful. I think we're in agreement then. Buffing everything to anwser the op units is a bad mistake that relic made and we are still struggling with. However I feel strongly that volks need a nerf and Obers need to be made accessible. A faction with 3 infantry units 2 as hard AI units aaaaaand we mostly only see the cheap general purpose unit... Okw isn't perfect by a long shot and I really think volks are crutching too much to get a good read on them. Plus a major upset for balance. At 10mp more than cons and grens they borrow the best from both and ignore the weaknesses which is an awful design. Rifles are supposed to be the leg work infantry not volks... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Weapon upgrades for standard infatry squads20 Nov 2018, 09:54 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Nov 2018, 09:30 AMVipper Imo infantry fight was in good spot before units started to be buffed left and right. Instead of solving the problem with buffing conscripts I would actually start nerfing other like VG, Penal, Guards and so on...Then most of problem that USF and UKF have would go away. Although your suggestion about small improvement is actually far better than a weapon upgrade and both solution could apply at the same time if there was still a need for them. Generally speaking T1 could become a building offering tech improvement to infantry better suited for heavy infantry use and T2 better suited for combined arms tactics. Couldn't agree more. Probably an unpopular opinion here but I feel like infantry combat was best.... When vet wasn't working. Maybe vet as a whole needs to be toned down so we have less bulletproof terminators and sticking to cover is important all game long or bleed like a stuck pig... But yea I think Soviet should be the "globals" faction relying less on vet (as in their vet is sub par) but is offset by replacing loses slightly better than at the start of the game. I think that would be a wicked cool flavor. Keeping vetted units is obviously better but taking heavy loses is slightly more manageable maybe even promoted.... Idk. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Partisans (The Commander That should have received a rework)20 Nov 2018, 09:04 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Nov 2018, 07:53 AMNaOCl They are partisans, not even trained soldiers. That is what partisan means. Why should they be effective FRONTLINE units? Well.... Cons aren't so.... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF is trash in every mode and in every way change my mind20 Nov 2018, 07:32 AM A single AT gun isn't a guarantee against any light except maybe the OKW flak trak. Usf one, Soviet one, certainly not the OST one... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW needs some nerfs don’t you think?20 Nov 2018, 06:26 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Nov 2018, 05:44 AMdistrofio Even if two truck are needed to be deployed, its a change for OKW. Nowdays Obers come after the 15+30+15+120 = 180 Fuel cost mark, but if thw OKM player chooses for "infantry superiority" deploying T1 and T2, it would be 15+30+15+45 = 105 fuel (58% of original cost) at the expense of delaying the best AT tools in the faction, I.e. Jp4 and Panthers. But Obers should be trained at T0. Oops forgot that detail. Yea. Build in t0 once a 2nd truck is built. Only thing I could see this being odd for is it might be a bit too soon with med truck. However med truck emphasis is on infantry and infantry support so maybe it's not so iffy? They are tough for sure but lacking AT and hitting the field right before lights could open a new dynamic to make okw mid game competative. In: COH2 Balance
