Thread: 15 minute Tiger/Tiger Ace in 4v420 Jun 2019, 13:55 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jun 2019, 13:19 PMWarspite I got an idea.. How about the community patchers stop using the live game as their testing guinea pigs especially for one side only tipping the balance so unfair? Or or how about they actually look at what they put in the game and how it works with balance.. (ostheer commander is blatantly op lets be real here, if soviets had 0cp PPSH cons, penals with smokes and HF point and a IS-2 ace with t-34/85 in the same doctrine everyone would be crying) How about decently phrasing your complaints for something that other people made for you with good intentions in their own free time? There are complaints to be made, and rightfully so, but there's no reason to violate Wheaton's law. In: COH2 Balance

Also many people just camp, when they have half the map, which is also bad idea now. --> As allies get vehicles out and push. And it depends on the map. On Steppe i don't care for a tiger rush for example. But you can't do that anyway there. Same on redball. Where this tactic works well is: liene forest, vielsam and lanzerath ambush. Because there you have a save fuel income. But yes we need to make 1 more stuff to avoid this fast rush. The balance team is thinking atm. But the plan was to get away from CP needed. Well, it's either make counters better by performance or availability (which would be horrible for the rest of the gameplay) or add additional time to the heavy tank. This could be a long build time (2-3 minutes) or additional cost by directly increasing the cost of the tank (which would make only the first tank perform cost-effective) or a side-tech that enables heavies. I advocate for the build time. The Tiger etc are priced okay-ish to their performance. And since resource income is heavily depending on the match mode, altering the build cost will have next to no effect in 4v4 while completely screwing 1v1. Build time is equal in all modes In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 15 minute Tiger/Tiger Ace in 4v420 Jun 2019, 12:03 PM But actually why is that so? If Axis are able to buy a 230 fuel unit after teching to T4, Allies should be able to get a 130-140 fuel unit out as well. Unless you really screwed up your early to mid game, but then it's okay if the opponent fortifies a strong position. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What do you find Un-fun about coh2?20 Jun 2019, 11:41 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jun 2019, 11:01 AMKatitof If there only was something as currency drops, making you pick whatever you want with time if you don't want to buy it. So, to keep the style: If there only was something like basic maths, making you able to calculate and back up whatever claim you make if you don't want to spread bullshit. Sarcasm off: To back it up: You need 15000 supply for a standard commander, or 30 drops with 500 supply each. For one drop you need 6000 victory points or 30*6000 = 180 000 victory points in total. You earn 1750 points on average per game (50% win-rate), equals 103 played matches. If a match lasts 30 min (usually, it's probably longer), this would make it 51,5 hours of playtime. Assuming every drop is a supply drop, which it is not. Probably every 2nd to 3rd time (depending on how many items you already have) is a supply drop, since there are probably hundreds of skins and bulletins. So please Relic, don't implement this shitty system again in CoH3. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: What do you find Un-fun about coh2?20 Jun 2019, 11:07 AM I also just remembered that you can get supply from Bot-matches, which I played quite a lot very long time ago. So the rate at which you get commanders is actually waaaaaaaay worse than 50 hours/ In: COH2 Gameplay

I do know your passive-aggressive style of writing, but before you do that, you should probably properly read the post first, otherwise it makes you look like a moron. I covered supply drops.

Thread: What do you find Un-fun about coh2?20 Jun 2019, 10:56 AM The monetization model. How you get commanders is horrible. I played 400 hours and got 3 commanders by random drops. And here I was super lucky since two of them were very usable. Also I can buy 2-3 Commanders with supply. I need to play 50+ hours to get one single commander. This is bullshit. You need to pay if you want to get anywhere. And if you buy one, it might be unusable because they don't rebalance old commanders with new patches, so it just might be money thrown away. For CoH3, please Relic, fix this stupid model. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 15 minute Tiger/Tiger Ace in 4v420 Jun 2019, 10:49 AM The new thing is that the Tiger now has a good chance to come very early if you try to save for it. T4 plus heavy tank costs approx 400 fuel, (15 mins with 27 fuel income, but realistically it's about 20 min) and in team games even earlier as less points are cut off and due to caches. Earlier, it always was 13 CP, which you would not reach before ~20 min. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Numeral Veterancy Descriptions - English Localization Mod20 Jun 2019, 10:06 AM I created a somewhat updated version. It mashes up the numerical descriptions by Harold up to the latest date (18.12.18 I believe) and adds the normal text strings for all strings that have been created afterwards (so you should not get the $NoKeyXXXXXXXXX message) Download here: Updated Mash-up of Harolds numerical vet description mod In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Eindhoven Country - Stuck spot20 Jun 2019, 09:35 AM And while we're at it: There's also this spot in "fields of Winnekendonk" near the southwest fuel point It should either be removed, or there should be an infantry mini-path around the trees to create a spot where you can hide units for suprise attacks In: COH2 Bugs
