Thread: OKW best beginner faction?1 Dec 2021, 12:07 PM Was wondering what faction to recommend to a new/starting player and I think OKW is the most beginner friendly/least punishing faction. They have the safest bases that prevent infantry and light vehicle base-rushes. No-tech AT guns so you never get rushed with vehicles without an answer AT gun with retreat - much less likely to lose them if you missmacro No weapon drops for mainline inf so you are not feeding the enemy your weapons if you lose squads Free-ish weapon and nade unlocks (baked into tech and cheaper overall) Strong nondoc elite inf lategame that can replace volks losses (less punishing to lose inf) Extra support and protection if you build shwere outside of base sector Nondoc super heavy tank that can be build even if you lose strutures Is there a faction that is better or similarly good for a new player?

Thread: Commandos visible in stealth?14 Apr 2020, 15:01 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Apr 2020, 18:43 PMBlueKnight What about 222 detect infantry ability? It shows units on minimap, if you use tac map well, you can precisely pinpoint the position of stealth squad. Don't think I have the replay saved but when I watched it after the game the units were invisible from his perspective. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Commandos visible in stealth?13 Apr 2020, 16:22 PM Haven't played COH in a few months so I might not be up to speed on whats know to the community but I have a very strong suspicion that commandos are somehow visible in stealth. Had this happen on a few games - people (as OST, no recon planes) are trowing nades precisely on moving stealthed units as they are moving up. And these are average lvl 14 players. Same thing reported by other brit in the team. Just to clarify my units were on hold fire, leapfrogging covers and never lost stealth. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: wishlist Last few minor changes before live patch12 Mar 2020, 15:56 PM 1. S mines to take longer to build and only be "armed" when the construction is finished like it is with other mines. Not a fan of mines being put down and combat ready in ~1s each. 2. Lower teller dmg to not instawipe light tanks. 80% dmg and engine dmg seems reasonable enogh. 3. No more elevation on maps. 4. Planes not falling on map? Or at least no dmg when doing so. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Sandbag squad split15 Feb 2020, 12:45 PM Maybe I'm not aware of the change but sandbags for UKF can no longer be built very close to a capture point (to make then one directional). You can however que them to be build with shift key which causes to squad leader to detach from the squad and run up to the point seperately (cap-walking in COH1) but be unable to build the sandbag.

Thread: The recent Infantry Sections nerf10 Dec 2019, 13:38 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Dec 2019, 12:55 PMKatitof Would you look at that! It seems like Ost does -NOT- pay a single drop of fuel for any upgrade they get and OKW is rewarded with super heavy for full tech. Yeah, I have proven to stuglife that UKFs tech is the most expensive using his own numbers but he continues to lie in forums saying otherwise. By HIS OWN NUMBERS: OKW: 1100/265 OH: 1070/235 UKF: 1360/270 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Faction Rankings in 1v1 25 Nov 2019, 11:12 AM I've suggested this before but how about just removing tech lockouts for a start. The design to further limit the faction with the least versatility sounds strange when its clearly under-performing. So I don't see why building AEC means you can't get cheap anti-air emplacement and why hammer means you can't get anvil. Skillplanes require UKF a significant investment to deal with when teching the standard AEC route as opposed to other factions. And anvil is hindered with other weird handicaps like short vehicle tracking. I'm not saying get the other upgrade for free - but the price is there and you should be able to unlock it if you want. ATM it makes no sense - imagine having AT gun and mortar mutually exclusive for some other faction. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: UKF absent from tourney play again22 Nov 2019, 15:49 PM My suggestion to the devs would be to try removing the lockout mechanic from brits and see how it plays. Having both comets and airburst shells would be fun and would compensate for UKF not having a true heavy tank. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: UKF absent from tourney play again22 Nov 2019, 15:41 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Nov 2019, 09:12 AMSuperHansFan Obviously when it comes to top level play when even seasoned ukf players are picking soviets or USF instead this is an indicator to where UKF balance is currently. Tommie 10mp decrease or not let's face it their in a pretty dire place right now. A couple of token 3-0 stomp fests in the early rounds aside. But lurking the forums it seems like there's not much discussion to WHY Brits are weak at current time. Some would blame it on sub par infantry options, lack of mortar or real heavy tank in a heavy tank meta. This thread is intended to shine a spotlight on just what the issue is so the balance team can get a better idea of gripes from players and overview to the problems that exist. Hopefully a few top players can throw their hat in the ring and explain why they avoided UKF in competitive play I think the main problem of UKF is lack of options. Its the only faction that locks out its own tech. Removing this handicap might open up some interesting new play. Secondly UKF has no light AI vehicle. The faction is reliant on nerfed IS to get it to mediums for AI (the worst one in the game mind u) while luchs can single handedly win a 1v1. This gives the faction less of a chance to steamroll someone after a dominant start and less of a way to push advantage. Absence of mobile artilery is the last nail in the coffin. Not only does it not have a mobile mortar there's no non-doctrinal mobile arty. And the options you get from the commanders are sub-par. Land matress could use a serious cooldown reduction and sexton would need to get accuracy when firing non point blank. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: About IS20 Nov 2019, 10:58 AM The biggest problem at the moment is that UKFs only non-doctrinal mainline infantry can be bullied around by OSTs pioneer at close range. AFAIK its the only mainline that can lose to a 200mp worker unit and arguably the weakest unit in the game. IS needs to have perfect conditions - range and cover to be competitive while most other late game units can just run and gun. In: COH2 Balance
