Thread: Just wanna bounce a build idea around30 Oct 2018, 23:40 PM Lately I’ve been playing a lot with airborne company in 1v1s and teamgames. I’ve been thinking of skipping a third rifleman squad and getting a mortar instead vs ostheer, since I always feel like I end up having too much infantry and not enough teamweapons vs ostheer anyways. However, giving up a third rifle usually hurts in the early game. I usually get paths, an airdropped hmg, and captain tier for a Stuart in 1v1s and then paras and Shermans backed up by at guns in the lategame. Just wanted to (as title says) bounce the idea around.

Thread: Buff Ostwind30 Oct 2018, 23:33 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2018, 16:14 PMShadowLinkX37 +1 + another 1 Although the one shortcoming of the centaur is that it’s slow as fuck. Also, pretty much every axis tank can shoot down planes with the pintle mount, and 222 is much better aa, making the ostwind somewhat redundant as an aa platform no matter what. Ostwind should still get some sort of buff though. IMO there’s absolutely no reason to build one instead of a p4 (p4 can even shoot down planes lel) unless you’re meming or BMing or something.

Thread: insta kill mines30 Oct 2018, 23:25 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2018, 23:17 PMTobis My point is the demo was a much bigger deal, they are not on the same level of cancer. I'd like to see the ohk removed from teller if they adjust the LV meta. Right now in 1v1 LVs are king, ostheer goes mobile defense for a puma in 9/10 games. Soviets go for a t70 in every single matchup. Nerfing the ohk on the teller would make even more players rush for mobile defense puma. It would have a negative impact on the meta. It's kinda cheesy but the meta right now requires it. The t70 and flame ht need to be less effective against retreating units. Once that is done tellers can lose the OHK. Ah yes I remember we had a conversation about this a while ago. I more or less agree with you, but meanwhile luchs, pumas, stuarts, AAHTs, M20s, and AECs all still get one shot by such mines. I don’t think there’s any problem with the wiping potential of the AEC atm XD Point is, other vehicles suffer more than they should from these mines. The problem should be addressed with the units themselves and then the mines can be nerfed, sure, but it’s no justification for leaving the mines as is. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Tiger 1 need a very little Buff in dmg30 Oct 2018, 23:19 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2018, 02:38 AMthedarkarmadillo I don't disagree that Shreks are better than zooks, but they are paid for accordingly. Squishy expensive squads vs literally any squad you bloody well want and in a few cases limited to a single buy. Pgrens are the only ones that get an efficient buy on Shreks and that's because it keeps them balanced as being an AT package that guts their AI. +1 IMO schrecks vs. zooks/PIATs are not a problem.

Thread: Current state of balance?30 Oct 2018, 23:10 PM IMO balance is the best it’s been in years. Most of the really gamebreaking bullshit is gone and it’s just improving commanders and smaller balance tweaks now AFAIK. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: insta kill mines30 Oct 2018, 23:07 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2018, 21:53 PMTobis You can always sweep for your one light vehicle. You can't always sweep for your 8 infantry squads. Yeah as if the argument was always “demos are too hard to sweep for”. Mostly people brought up the fact that it was cheesy that an ability could one shot a squad in an instant. Apply the same logic to tellers and you get “use sweepers lol”. IMO both tellers and m20 mines shouldn’t one shot. M20 mine should be able to keep immobilize because of how inaccessible it is and because riegel mines are still a thing. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Buff Ostwind29 Oct 2018, 16:53 PM I agree that it could use an aa buff but why would you ever use an ostwind over a 222 for aa? One 222 is already pretty good as and they’re so cheap that you can get 2 of them for marginally more than flaktracks and 3 for the fuel price of an ostwind or centaur. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch29 Oct 2018, 16:47 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Oct 2018, 20:09 PMWiderstreit Compare them. One need micro, one is a no-brainer. Yeah. Sherman and scott take micro because they’ll never bounce anything, go up against panthers, brummbars, and heavies and die significantly faster and the brummbar is god tier anti infantry that can shoot over shotblockers, barrage at like at gun range with vet (so can Scott, to be fair) and bounces anything with less pen than a Brit at gun more often than not while also having a lot of health. It even gets more health and armor with vet. Sure, it takes micro too, but at least it doesn’t get vaporized if you mess up with it for like 2 seconds. Jump back to quoted post29 Oct 2018, 16:30 PMMittens Is it possible that brits can get a Scuttle ability similar to what the pak43 has now in the test build? That would be nice, especially for the mortar pit. In: Lobby
Thread: Why is the M20 so trashy?29 Oct 2018, 00:19 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Oct 2018, 18:34 PMSander93 Performance is fine I think but the cost should go way down. Around 250 manpower and 30 fuel. Maybe make the side skirts standard issue. +1 IMO vet requirements are way too high right now too considering it doesn't do crazy amounts of damage or anything.

Thread: Why is the M20 so trashy?28 Oct 2018, 16:32 PM The M20 is a decent unit (and super fun to use) but its way overpriced IMO; it costs the same manpower as a Sherman It shouldn't need a skirts upgrade (which still doesn't prevent it from dying in two hits) and vets super slow but other than that it's a pretty good unit. It has pretty decent long range damage and shines when chasing down retreating units at close range (which it's fast enough to do) or flanking lone team weapons because of its very good close range dps.
