Thread: Usf Rifle Company14 Jan 2019, 14:54 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Jan 2019, 14:35 PMVipper My point was about "fire it up" and "flares" I am all about making the units different and useful. On the other hand your suggestion are to buff both units. Cloning units across factions with different designs has been proven that it does not work. Unless their price goes also up (185-200?) and require more teching both 76 and Easy8 would be OP. Actually what I had suggested about the 76mm was to make it similar to normal Sherman but having an AP round option instead of HE. That would make it different and useful leaving room for both Sherman to be built. My suggestion are not to straight up buff or clone any unit. Im trying to make both doctrinal sherman variants into useful distinct units. When i said "comet like" i didnt mean to literally copy its stats, rather to make it perform at the same level, "premium medium tank". And of course i thought the price going up accordingly is obvious so i didnt mention it... The main problem here is that usf doesnt need any more tank destroyers and thats pretty much what 76mm is, a weak tank destroyer. USF lacks standard medium tank (one that has good survivability and good performance vs all targets) and premium medium tank (one that could engage panther 1v1 and kill p4 with relative ease) In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Usf Rifle Company14 Jan 2019, 13:52 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Jan 2019, 11:51 AMVipper The flares and fire up abilities are weak but that is what is probably holding the commander in check. Buffing units and abilities all the time is step in the wrong direction imo. It makes battles sorter and more RNG. Its not about buffing, its about making units that are different and useful. Whats the point of having 3 sherman variants all in a 110-140 fuel price range? We already have 2 tank destroyers, one that is arguably the best medium TD in the game, so we have that covered but now balance team is trying to make 76mm into third tank destroyer (and it sucks). Now for e8, some people are saying that it has good stats so we cant buff it because it will perform above its price. But the tank is still useless, nobody needs slightly buffier 75mm sherman with much worse anti infantry capabilities. 76mm similar to t34/85 (800hp, ok performance vs inf and tanks) and Easy8 similar to comet/panther (bad vs inf, good armor and hp) is what will actually be useful.

Thread: Shock Troops - Grenade cooldown13 Jan 2019, 19:04 PM Does it even matter if its bug or feature? The sandbag blocking is bug banned in tournaments and yet its not fixed and you can abuse it in automatch. If something is in game you have to deal with it, even if its game breaking bug.

Thread: New Commander Submission - Discuss13 Jan 2019, 12:56 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Jan 2019, 12:22 PMA. Soldier I asked the creator of the CoH2 realism mod yesterday if it's possible to add sandbags to the Sherman model and he said no. I am not 100% sure if that's true or not because I haven't tried it myself nor do I know how or have the time but going by his experienced words I am guessing that it's how he says it. For me it'd be best to include the Pershing and E8 in a commander so they don't overshadow each other and fix the E8 like they did with the 76 Sherman. The problem with this is that 76mm wasnt really fixed. Its still barely used and not very good. I think balance team dont really have any idea what to do with the 76mm and e8. If they turned 76mm into standard medium tank like t34/85 and p4 (ok vs armor and inf) and then made e8 more like panther/comet (good armor and hp, good penetration but low reload speed and anti inf performance) then we could use these tanks in new commanders to make them good.

Thread: New Commander Submission - Discuss13 Jan 2019, 11:31 AM We need Jumbo for USF. Everything else (including ukf and sov units) would be lame. Just use 76mm model with some special skin and sandbags and its pretty much Jumbo since these tanks looked almost the same. In: Lobby

Thread: New Commander Submission - USA11 Jan 2019, 14:19 PM Faction + Commander Name: USF Assault Company Theme: Combination of heavy tanks and offmap strikes allows to break through enemy defenses (pak walls, mg spam, bunker spam). Unit and Ability Roster Slot 1: M4A3E2 Jumbo Assault Tank Available from Battalion Command Post at 0CP Cost somewhere between KV1 and Churchill, same with performance Cant use smoke, but can be immobilized for increased attack speed Uses same model as 76mm Sherman but with sanbags on front and sides and maybe some special skin (please tell me its possible to do) Slot 2: Cavalry Riflemen Call in unit, available from 1CP Slot 3: Off Map Smoke Barrage Available at 1CP Identical to Heavy Cavalry smoke barrage Slot 4: 155mm Artillery Barrage Available at 8CP Costs 180 Munitions Identical to WC51 arty Slot 5: P47 Anti-Infantry Strafe Available at 12CP Costs 180 munitions Same performance as soviet IL2 loiter Strategies and Rational USF armor is mostly very fragile and its hard to tackle axis defenses in late game without taking heavy loses. Sherman Jumbo allows you to take some punishment from enemy AT while also slowly taking on enemy defenses. Cav rifles with smoke barrage have easier time dealing with mg nests and bunkers. Anti infantry strafe keeps enemy blobs in check, while 155mm artillery can rapidly destroy any emplacements. Additional Context Its a shame that we dont have Jumbo in COH2 yet. Its very iconic tank and was very successful at its assault tank role. I hope its possible to add sandbags to 76mm Sherman so its easily distiguishable, since in reality these tanks were very similar in appearance. Maybe even some special skin if there is any available.

Thread: WASP locked behind Platoon CP5 Jan 2019, 14:40 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Jan 2019, 14:29 PMdistrofio You both know very well that WASPs eats alive rakettens and you still point that out, instead of that bring something new to the table, your arguments are already stale. I reinforce my argument, pfaust from min 0 for volks in exange for WASP unlocked, since the latter is meant to counter team weapons and garrisons Edit: Not to mention that raketten means ZERO AI but WASP enjoy burning alive anything that runs on its feet, or in other words 95% of the units in the earlygame. Raketten means a bad if not terrible and risky early game investment. Edit2: @OP if you really want to promote a change you need to elaborate, i mean, everyone here complaints but no one does the dirty job of listening and pruposing something good in return... You are right my friend, here is my proposition: remove the platoon cp requirement for wasp upgrade. Its stupid and limits the usage of bren carrier. Also brits are probably the worst faction to clear garrisons nondoctrinaly so they could get at least wasp upgrade that is not artificially delayed (you still need 75 muni wich is a lot).
