Thread: STG Obersoldaten22 Sep 2019, 19:06 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Sep 2019, 18:50 PMaerafield so you're asking for overpriced panzergrenadiers? I assume he's asking for Obersoldaten with 2 IR-StGs and 2 normal ones. That's very different from Panzergrenadiere. Jump back to quoted post22 Sep 2019, 17:13 PMVipper That is a bit of an exaggeration they do not "almost completely negate cover". They simply have 0.9 accuracy multiplier instead of 0.5. Damage reduction still applies. That's true, thanks for the correction. My general point though still stands. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: STG Obersoldaten22 Sep 2019, 16:48 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Sep 2019, 12:38 PMt_d_kay They look awkward with 2 STGs and 2 Kar98ks. Pls give them 2 more STGs (maybe normal, not scoped) to help them compete against Rangers and Shock Troops at medium-close range. Sturmpioneers are decent now but I wouldn't risk loosing my expensive repair squad for dangerous frontline duties. That would be a straight buff to the ability that is probably not needed, especially not because it 'looks awkward'. They almost completely negate cover and do decent damage. They're not in the role of super beefy assault units like Shocks and Rangers, so why should they beat them in that role? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: How are Infantrysections since patch?21 Sep 2019, 17:09 PM For clarity, the poll should be split into two questions. 1. IS should get strong/slight buff/nerf or keep as it is 2. Buff/nerf should be applied out of cover/in cover/both. Can't contribute much on the topic since I did not play much in smaller modes lately In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Updated Numeric Veterancy Mod(English)20 Sep 2019, 08:06 AM Jump back to quoted post18 Sep 2019, 07:58 AMzerocoh no, it is "working". There is still a shitton of strings missing or completely outdated.pleasep Partysans for example. and the string on the rear echelon flamers on the commander is missing Please share the missing keys plus what the key is supposed to shoe, so Shtrafniki and I (mostly Shtraf to be honest) can fix this In: Modding and Tools

Thread: Suppression mechanic: How does it REALLY works ?18 Sep 2019, 21:40 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Sep 2019, 21:12 PMSander93 It's 0.012 per bullet. It fires 17.6/16/14.4 bullets per second (rate of fire) depending on the range. So for example at mid range, it deals (0.012 * 16 =) 0.192 suppression per second. At least that might just be the base value, as other things might further influence it according to some sources. Good to know. Can I find this rate of fire stat in the attribute editor? But still, against a green cover squad this would be 1/10 (see elchino's post), so 0,0192 suppression per second, and only if all bullets hit. Or did I miss another thing here? In: Lobby
Thread: Suppression mechanic: How does it REALLY works ?18 Sep 2019, 20:57 PM Also the suppression recovery is weird. Assuming that these values are still the same in the live game or at least similar, recovery in green cover would be 5*0,008/s = 0,04/s Now suppression of the MG42 is 0,012 (see Vipper's post) per burst I assume. Or per second of burst? Well, I don't know. Still combinded with the reduced RA and suppression of squads in green cover, the MG42 should basically never be able to suppress any squad in green cover. Now the numbers might be totally outdated. But at least from that we can assume that the suppression model is way, waaaaay more complicated than just shooting at targets and adding a fixed value very time until the suppression bar is full. Or maybe there is an easy solution and I just don't see it. In: Lobby
Thread: Suppression mechanic: How does it REALLY works ?18 Sep 2019, 20:50 PM The squad size dependency is really interesting. Have there been any major chances in the suppression mechanic since the release? This finding suggests that either direct suppression is dealt on a per model basis or that AoE suppression spreads from the targeted model to the surrounding models (also of the same squad), after which the suppression values get added up to the squad suppression value. Since 7 men Conscripts have more models that eat the AoE suppression, suppression is quicker. One question though on the 1-model squads: Does it make a difference if the squad got "bolstered" or not (so one model in a 6 men Con squad compared to 1 model left in a 7 men Con squad, similar for Tommies)? Also does it make a difference if the natural squad size is small or large (for example 1 model of 7 men Con vs 1 model of Major)? In: Lobby
Thread: MG performance test18 Sep 2019, 18:31 PM Thank you for sharing and putting so much effort also into explaining the setup! One question though! Did you test on a range map? So the ranges are shoen in colored lines, which improves reproducability. In: COH2 Balance
