Thread: Conscrits AT Package24 May 2020, 16:34 PM I think thisbidea could cause huge issues with the power level of SOV T1 builds. Conscripts are high utility units and also doctrines should reflect that you might be able to upgrade them later in the game. Both specialized call in units or unlockable upgrades can be decently designed, but there is no reason to generally favor one of the other. It should depend on the faction and context of the upgrade.

Thread: Cost of handheld AT24 May 2020, 16:28 PM Jump back to quoted post24 May 2020, 16:13 PMgeneral_gawain The problem only gets worse when you have Super Bazooka and Shrek on elite infantry with high received accuracy. it would be far better, when squishy four man Rear Echelons / Grenadiers with next to no AI capability left after upgrade would have them (-> BlueKnight already proposed that). About the discount: Then make a 70mun double bren upgrade for IS, or a 110mun triple Super Bazooka upgrade for Rangers. You know what? That would be hilarious, i really don't want that. Because it makes absolutely no sense, that it is cheaper when you buy it at once instead of one after another. But having to pay 100mun for 2x single piat or 2x single bazooka, the same as you have to pay at PGs or panzerfusiliers for double Shrek is hilarious in the same way. There is more to getting weapon upgrades then just plain performance of the weapons. OST has to put them on an expensive squad that afterwards looses most of their shock potential and is fragile due to being 4 men. There is a real trade off for that. USF can put them on Echolons which is a straight upgrade in almost every situation or get them on a 5 men squad with snare. Now Panzerfüsiliers are also 5 men, but to be honest I never had any trouble with them because the upgrade allows for a clear weakness as well. And on top of that, the faction and availability to muni should also be taken into account. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Cost of handheld AT24 May 2020, 16:08 PM The only thing I am not fine with is the performance of PIATs and single Schrecks . Either cost should go down or there should be some minor buff to the weapon or squad using it. The bazooka/elite/Schreck balance is in a good place at the moment in my opinion both cost and timing-wise In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Matchmaking23 May 2020, 14:20 PM Jump back to quoted post23 May 2020, 13:58 PMProtos Angelus Experience mostly. Steam reports 8k people usually playing COH2. I'm from Croatia which is southern Europe and it takes me a long time usually to find a match 3v3+ on random teams. I wouldn't be surprised if half of that 8k is Asian market as I see a lot of Russian/Chinese/Korean players in my games (whenever there is a 3+ sec delay on issuing commands, I know that there are Asian players in the game). For Europe, the game is pretty dead from my point of view. I highly doubt that there is a huge community of Asian players online during the European prime time. They are 6-7 hours ahead of time, so when Europe starts playing it is already waaaay beyond midnight in South Korea. Of course CoH2 does not have a huge community like other games, but for the niche game it is the online community is quite decent. In my experience, most of the auto match games are alright. Obviously with some hick ups every now and then. But this might also be rank dependent. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: The Grand Tank-AoE Damage Compendium23 May 2020, 12:37 PM That's all nice an such, but could you please redo all the data for all the infantry in all the formations? Just kidding, nice work! I am sure that it will serve as a good reference to check how vehicles perform against infantry. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Small efficiencies in north spawn camera rotation22 May 2020, 15:19 PM My experience from checking camera angles on replays is that most people (at least at my level) do not rotate the camera and use the default one instead. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Partisans are underpowered18 May 2020, 08:31 AM In another thread about Partisans I made the suggestion to make a ultra-high utility unit out of them. Mines, heavy mines, demos, satchels, repairs, snares, sandbags, high decap rate, sprint give them whatever needed. At the same time keep their stats mediocre. Like this they should be a niche unit that can fill some gaps in SOV builds and allow for different play styles in T1 and T2 builds. Also they would be used as behind the line infiltration and sabotage units but cannot fight trained soldiers which would really fit the theme. In: COH2 Balance
