Also saying nothing changes isn't quite correct, as both squads nearly died. Really ? In: Lobby

Both aren't generalist and both lack the ai utility/performance of m8 or the support of several at units with ai avilities (su/zis) or premiums generalist/specialized anti infantry heavy like comet/churchill... BS: "My bar/bren blob should waste more expensive elite doctrinal/non doc infantry in 1vs1 because i have no other ai option" In: Lobby
Thread: December Balance Preview16 Dec 2017, 07:47 AM Jump back to quoted post16 Dec 2017, 04:34 AMEtherealDragon My point is just that USF and UKF don't have doctrinal elite infantry so they should have a slightly higher ceiling via double upgrade than Volks or Grens (because they have Panzergrens and Obers for late game Infantry support). No it wasn't... your point was that should be a-movable and waste anything, including much more expensive doc/non doc elite because of a one time investment that is laughable compared to the late game bleed of indirect fire and small arms that such elites suffer. Now i may be wrong...but what about accounting the sensibly better in AI performances generalist allied tank and the other powerful ai late game vehicles (okw has none, ost has much less accessible brumbar and the ostwind) and use combined arms ? Or coordinate indirect fire...or something else that make it look like you are playing an rts... In: Lobby
Thread: December Balance Preview16 Dec 2017, 07:37 AM Jump back to quoted post15 Dec 2017, 23:44 PMEtherealDragon If you're sinking 120 munitions onto a squad it should absolutely be able to deal with elite squads. Because- pop quiz what do axis factions have that allies dont? What is Non-doctrinal elite infantry? Ding ding ding! Obers and PZ Grens have an easy time with non or single upgraded squads so the only way for commanders that don't have elite infantry to be viable is for allowing mainline infantry to be able to scale with other elite squads for a cost. It's either that or just allow Riflemen and Tommies to be outscaled just because they are facing off against "elite" squads and be forced into commanders with Rangers, Paratroopers, Commandos, etc. just to compete. No they shouldn't, they should be able to 2vs1 those elite, or 1vs1 with much better micro/cover. Those factions have the best AI tank to support infantry, like sherman and t34... But apparently the general idea now is to make bar/bren spam into stuart/aec into jackson/firefly new mainstream meta "Because- pop quiz what do axis factions have that allies dont?" Start with he shells/super bolshevik mg on t34, m8 sniper carriage, centaur, tons of indirect fire even from direct fire units (su76/zis)... In: Lobby
Thread: OKW Vet balance and caches15 Dec 2017, 17:39 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Dec 2017, 16:50 PMKatitof I have came from the Underworld only to defy and invalidate your signature. Also to say this(that's directed at op): OKW strength curve got flattened(no longer vet advantage), but they don't get nor should get caches. Ost strength curve got flattened(no longer armor advantage in late game), but they don't get nor should durable infantry. Sov strength curve got flattened(no longer penal/maxim only spam), but they don't get nor should basic infantry capable of non doctrinal late game scaline(as little sense as it makes, but whatever). Same happened to USF and UKF. Point is, just because you don't have any particular toy better then your opponent, is NOT a justification to why you should have your opponents toys or more toys then them. Back to the Underworld! Sure.. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: December Balance Preview15 Dec 2017, 15:04 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Dec 2017, 11:34 AMDangerous-Cloth This was removed I believe. The OKW p4 is in a good spot and comes with its extra armor straight out of the box. The Ostheer p4 is now in a very good spot considering its price since it now has penetration buffs. It also has the ability to gain more armor with vet. The cromwell and Sherman can't do this. You have to consider this when comparing these vehicles. Although the Sherman and Cromwell have good chances against the Ostheer p4 at vet 0 and the start of their deployment, we can't deny that as veterancy piles up, the odds are most definitely in the favor of both p4s. We must also not forget that both p4s can get a very effective pintle mount mg, which makes them even better vs infantry. While I think of it, the Ostheer p4 is supported by the best at gun in the game, which further enlarged the offset in the Sherman/Cromwell vs Ostheer P4 battle. The Sherman and Cromwell are supported by a decent at gun (57mm) and very good at gun (6 pounder), but these too have to eventually fight the added armor of the p4. Although the 6 pounder does this better, the 57mm however does not. The UKF can't even snare the P4s... Ostheer and OKW can snare any vehicle they want, so can USF. Wait what ? Did you just call 57mm "decent" ? Hell you don't know its potential for sure... It's the second best atg in game after pak, pounder being third. In: Lobby
Thread: December Balance Preview15 Dec 2017, 15:01 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Dec 2017, 10:21 AMRussianHamster Its so hard to micro 2 comets or croc with firefly. Kappa P4 and sherman 1v1 are the same tanks, what shows a 50-50 chances to destruction of each other, but sherman have more speed, can repair himself, have smoke and have AI-rounds. Cromwell have a smoke shell without cooldown and faster veterancy with officier. Control the one tiger are really easily, than controlling 2+ medium tanks, but its not so important in hight skill games and in current version of a game brits and USF have the same (crock, comets and pershing) heavy armour with the same difficulty to using as a axis tanks. Let's not forget that in any scenario outside woldbuilder panzer 4 would at least be forced to fire some shell on the move (flanking/chasing/reverse.. ) and that means it won't hit unlike sherman.

Thread: December Balance Preview15 Dec 2017, 08:39 AM Everytime i play dbp with or against okw i still feel the same: 1) volks are too powerful early-mid but in a very small window 2) volks are complete trash ultra overpriced for the rest of the game Give back pre DBP volks, cut some mp and remove stg...fixed... So much for justifing/tweaking such a wrong balance decision as stg volks. In: Lobby
