Thread: Lost Glider23 Jun 2018, 16:02 PM Center of the hedge on the north side could be shot through without LoS by models and occasionally the OKW flak base. Unsure if they pathway created fixed this. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: GCS2 Barbarossa faction win rate23 Jun 2018, 14:15 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Jun 2018, 09:03 AMFiresparks I have calculated the dps of the lee enfield, bren, k98k, and lmg42 on vet3 tommies and vet3 gren verus each other. range are in 5 meter increment, rounded to 4 decimal and the dps take into account target size and veterancy lee enfield 4.1507\|3.9953\|3.7061\|3.4505\|3.2229\|3.0189\|2.7476\|2.5073 k98k 5.1387\|4.5668\|3.9625\|3.4790\|3.0836\|2.7540\|2.4010\|2.1030 lmg42 6.0327\|6.6416\|7.2007\|7.7055\|8.1523\|8.5378\|8.7938\|8.7506 bren 4.1720\|4.6211\|5.0058\|5.3207\|5.5613\|5.7240\|6.0328\|6.3103 that double bren is really the only thing keeping the Tommy relevant. I'm curious about tommies DPS in cover vs out of cover as well, since I believe they get a RoF(?) bonus incover. Jump back to quoted post23 Jun 2018, 10:45 AMCieZ I just don't understand why people are so opposed to giving Tommies a snare. Yes, they're the best mainline infantry in the game - but they also require, by FAR the most investment. Out of the gate they're extremely expensive, they're horrible at flanking because of their atrocious accuracy on the move, and as Firesparks has pointed out you have to spend precious fuel AND 90 munis to keep them competitive with Grenadiers as the game progresses. Yet Grenadier faust, unlike every other infantry-based hard snare in the game, isn't gated by tech/time. Did people forget how much OKW struggled against light vehicles back in the day because of this exact lack of snare? The ONLY reliable snare UKF has is on a research based light vehicle that isn't particularly durable or effective against infantry, AND that snare isn't pseduo-permanent like faust/AT nade/etc. If you don't want to give Tommies snare, at least give it to sappers in some form. But I don't think that'd be enough. They're already too busy repairing/planting mines/sweeping mid/late game. Another overlooked problem between UKF and other factions is their inability to terraform the map early game. Not being able to lay wire to deny important green cover/flanking routes is brutal for a faction that relies on engaging in cover and (preferably) at max range at all times. Furthermore, tying snare to the grenade tech, UKF players will still have to invest EVEN MORE into Tommies to even let them snare in the first place. Sometimes I just don't even... at the risk of sounding frustrated by people's logic let me lay it out the way it sounds: 1) Hey we know UKF is objectively the weakest 1v1 faction in the game. 2) Dang, they really struggle at actually killing tanks and can get flanked more easily than any other faction because EVERY other faction has a mainline infantry based snare to punish over-extensions. 3) Should we add a snare to UKF? Nope. Edit: Even if Tommies get a snare, the faction is still going to struggle against HMGs, snipers, and have arguably the weakest assortment of tanks to choose from. Centaur is passable, but a shadow of what it used to be. Cromwell is probably the weakest overall medium in the game and the Firefly is slow, expensive, has an atrocious rate of fire, and requires a huge munitions investment to keep up with other TDs. Comets are hardly worth the cost. Churchills are nice, but difficult to get to in a 1v1. Probably their strongest tank these days though. I think people get lost along the way of trying to argue to change so many things at one time and then lose track of what they actually want in the game. For example, I'd remove snipers and turn them into scout units. Therefore I wouldn't consider a sniper a struggle because it wouldn't be a struggle for UKF to play against. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Penal PTRS bug23 Jun 2018, 01:26 AM Jump back to quoted post23 Jun 2018, 01:21 AMLugie Thats strange, that means the ability checks for a slot item rather than an upgrade. That must be a design decision, because checking for the upgrade is actually easier, right? Edit: Confirmed it checks for the PTRS slot item and not the upgrade itself. So it is not a bug?

But that's how I'd evaluate that only. Well for the USF AT gun that isn't much at all No but really that'd be like anything more than and including the KV-1. In: COH2 Balance
