Thread: UKF Emplacements11 Nov 2019, 14:14 PM There are two types of emplacement that work well in this game. » Time-buying emplacements: straightforward to counter and cheap enough that their destruction doesn't matter that much. » Support emplacements: powerful emplacements worth their cost that don't contest territory, so the opponent doesn't have to kill them. The first category contains bunkers and OKW flaks. The second category contains howitzers, the giant static ATGs and Forward Assemblies. Every other emplacement is directly at odds with the design philosophy of this game. In: Lobby
Thread: How i would buff infantry sections10 Nov 2019, 21:07 PM Now that their base stats have been toned down, reverting to the old 60 muni Brens might help them out a bit. It's possible for the current Brens to make them worse. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Thoughts on World Championship 2019 so far?10 Nov 2019, 13:55 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Nov 2019, 12:59 PMoootto92 I already have a hunch that OKW is being strongly favoured over ostheer. Also I have a feefee that the vast amount of winning ostheer strats revolve around going for 0CP units. Grens seem to be rarity. This should signal to the balance team that something is off, if the benchmark for the whole mainline infantry does not see as much use as it statistically should, or players opt to play OKW. That's not what we saw yesterday. OST seems to be the tournament pick in defiance of the meta, and we even saw MG-less Grenadier builds from Luvnest. If tournament results are any indication, the Balance Team has done an incredibly good job on making a balanced and strategically diverse Ostheer. In: COH2 Balance

Last night games faced off against familiar top foes, and games went to game5. Either they're close. Or perhaps when your turn to use allies, you get the win https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Map pool and vetos for match making...10 Nov 2019, 12:15 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Nov 2019, 12:13 PMmrgame2 So at least its a technical limitations. Hope coh3 don't have this limit. Its about democracy, freedom to love maps, maga. Imo if u veto too much and can't find games, naturally you will unveto some. Human live natural selection Veto limits are pretty standard and aren't going anywhere because the veto system needs them to work well. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Map pool and vetos for match making...10 Nov 2019, 12:12 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Nov 2019, 09:56 AMmrgame2 Why cant relic make all maps past and present available in the pool, and allow us unlimited vetos to filter out maps WE dont like. Instead of forcing your decisions down our throats? Am i right? The veto system has limited vetoes because it's more effective that way. If every map is vetoed (which can happen in 4v4) the matchmaker chooses from the set of maps with the fewest vetoes. The more vetoes everyone has, the less they're worth and the more likely they are to be ignored. In: COH2 Gameplay

Its like coin toss, you should play allies first, so if it gets to game5, at least you end with allies. Did okw volks delayed got too serious nerf in gaining early game presence now we seen high levels plays? At this point in the tournament, what's deciding matches is the difference in tournament seed, not faction. In: COH2 Balance

Allies seems to dominate! Especially Usf. Time to nerf bat them some! Any more comments? You are aware that, if you did get your wishlist of nerfs, you wouldn't win any more games? The matchmaker will just give you stronger opponents to make up the balance deficit. Your ranks won't go up either, because you're ranked against other people playing Ostheer and they'd all gain the same 'advantage' too. Faction vs faction balance only really makes a difference in tournaments and at the extreme ends of the ladder. Outside of them, the main goal of balance patches is strategic diversity.
