Thread: Elst Outskirts19 Jun 2018, 15:28 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Jun 2018, 11:16 AMsiddolio There's also disparity in space late game because of the house carcass north side of mid vp whereas its mirrored by destroyable trees in the south. Its way easier to hold mid vp from south Agreed! The house needs to go. EARLY GAME: - the NORTH has more sight blockers(aqua boxes) to deal with. - the SOUTH gets yellow cover a little closer to the VP (31M vs 37M). - the SOUTH can pop around the middle road and be in cover by the fuel. The NORTH has to travel several meters before reaching the mirroring cover. The truck right of the VP needs to be moved north by a few meters. LATE GAME: - The SOUTH has better flanking options with the two red side roads. - The NORTH has the house carcass while south gets yellow cover. Once artillery starts the NORTH has much less space to hide in and should be at a disadvantage. - The building also blocks sight making it much more difficult to setup AT guns, turretless vehicles, etc. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: Elst Outskirts19 Jun 2018, 15:12 PM At first glance there seemed to be some imbalance around the wooden VP buildings. However, they are very close in design. The main difference being the large log piles (RED) utility vs the sight blocking bushes (RED). - The EAST VP logs may give you safer LV retreat options mid game. - The WEST VP bushes may be easier to get close to an MG and toss a grenade or even flame it thru the hedgerow. - The EAST VP house has additional green cover hay mounds outside of it allowing for another flanking option. - The WEST VP has arguably better yellow cover. There is a slight imbalance with the wooden houses over looking the fuels. Again, nothing major and may not warrant any change. - The EAST FUEL has much closer sight blockers giving an approaching squad a better chance of getting into grenade range before an MG could target them. And sight blockers 2 and 3 are on the corner of the building which would require an MG to change position to target an approaching squad. - The distances to these buildings from each base is close (approx 212M), however, the SOUTH team must venture closer to the EAST VP building to get to their house. Bypassing the house sight radius puts the EAST house much further away. So mid game an MG in the EAST VP house would make the EAST fuel harder to contest and also have a slightly more dangerous RETREAT PATH. You could be closer to the house and on RED cover for a longer period of time. In: Summer patch 2018

Only unit balance value changes using the modding tools. But maybe In: Scrap Yard
Thread: Lienne Forrest18 Jun 2018, 21:29 PM There need to be a few breaks in the fences outside the north west base. When getting pushed it is very hard to get to the building without getting wiped in the process. May help low rank players a bit when they panic click the building and their units run straight into the enemy instead. OPTIONAL: The little house (blue) shows as a sight blocker which is the opposite of what you want here. It should be on the backside of the house. Or even better, remove it and put trees (yellow, sight blockers) on backside of the house. This would limit its effectiveness and allow flanks on either side. Good map design would say that all structures would be sight blocked on the side closest to their spawns. So you can fight out of your base, and NOT be pinned in your base. Should require some sight blockers on the mirroring south side buildings for balance. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: Lienne Forrest18 Jun 2018, 21:14 PM Change the building between the left VPs to have WINDOWS on EVERY side. The top side of the map is very building heavy. South side needs to be able to push this building to get between the station and city which are both usually garrisoned with MGs. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: Lienne Forrest18 Jun 2018, 21:06 PM The far southern(left) passage (below left VP) needs to be opened up. Some vehicles can get thru. Some can not. It almost seems random when vehicles will choose to go that way. Remove the debri piles and/or move the tree/groves. I would move the groves back personally. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: Lienne Forrest18 Jun 2018, 20:58 PM I also think the 3rd train car in mid needs to be removed. This train car creates pathing nightmares once tanks hit the field. There are usually a few team weapons in this area the tanks also have to move around. To keep the path clear, teams must move further back. Which limits the area to hide during artillery strikes. Removing some of the trees (bottom right of pic) would allow similar/mirrored access to the area. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: Possible new COH3 mechanics18 Jun 2018, 20:44 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Jun 2018, 15:14 PMGI John 412 Or instead, units cannot target units that are behind a larger unit. That way MGs cannot shoot “through” a tank or AT guns targeting a tank that is behind another tank. This would open up lots of options for combined arms tank play and the use of rifle grenades, mortars and other forms of light indirect fire to counter it by targeting units behind taller units. Depending on how Relic calculates vision, having different height vehicles may be troublesome to code. However, they already have sight blockers. Having TANKS be "MOVING SIGHT BLOCKERS" may be very simple to code. They already have the code. Copy-Pasta and they are done. This would be very interesting to play in 4v4. It would nearly nullify MGs/bunker spam. Historians may argue you could shoot between the tracks etc. So I guess the green cover mechanic is more historically accurate? You could also then push garbage vehicles in front to break through lines and protect your expensive vehicles. In: Scrap Yard
Thread: Lienne Forrest17 Jun 2018, 16:34 PM From my post about Port of Hamburg: 1. SOUTH TO NORTH FLANKS 2. NORTH TO SOUTH FLANKS The north has many more flanks possible. The north has two more paths to get behind an MG. Once they are behind the MG, there are two hedgerow sight blockers creating even more flanking options. Not to mention if the units are CQC they will be right on top of the MG before it even sees them. The southern flank path can be guarded my a single MG or mine. The top would require at least three MGs to do a decent job. And I skipped the far right side river flanks. So add one to each Edit: Notice also that all of the large areas to fight in are North of the tracks. Meaning, if its an even fight, you are in your base. GG. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: Map Patch for the Summer Patch17 Jun 2018, 00:22 AM WOW! I am blown away! Fantastic! Ok guys, lets not mess this chance up. Try to keep the trolling to a minimum on the threads. As someone, who has made maps and plays the game, I can attest to how difficult it is to balance to perfection. The key is 100's of hours of play on the maps. Hopefully, the top players will kick in some great ideas. Transparency is the key to making this game reach its fullest "community" expectation. This is a rare opportunity. We need to really embrace it. Thank you to Relic and Sturmpanther for even trying this in the chaotic world of COH2 community o7 In: News
