Thread: First big post-launch patch hits COH212 Jul 2013, 08:48 AM Probably best to forget that nonsense and just go with the standard way of calculating prob, which I understand. Forget it. Your red text is not entirely correct though. In: News
Thread: First big post-launch patch hits COH211 Jul 2013, 21:11 PM Yeh, I understand the probability of a whole squad dying as that's pretty straightforward (said as much myself on a very similar thread http://www.coh2.org/topic/5122/comments-on-the-july-10-patch-notes/page/2#post_id51187 ), what threw me is trying to understand and apply weighting to the thing above from Mauser that was going a level deeper. Perhaps it doesn't need weighting. Which is kind of what I was asking. In: News
Thread: First big post-launch patch hits COH211 Jul 2013, 19:36 PM Good thinking - although how does the weighting on each outcome affect it? If at all? 0 0 (Both dead) 25% chance on destruction 0 1 (1 dead) 50% chance on destruction 1 0 (1 dead) 50% chance on destruction 1 1 (Both live) 25% chance [not sure of that one though] on destruction So isn't there a greater chance overall that 1 of them will die than both dying and both living? If we give each outcome a number out of 4: 0 0 allocate 1 0 1 allocate 2 1 0 allocate 2 1 1 allocate 1 So for at only 1 of them to die, that would be 4/6 - 66.6% chance. For both to die would be over a 16.6% chance and for both to survive would also be 16.6%. My maths comprehension can be way off though, so am prepared to be told it's nonsense In: News
Thread: Comments on the July 10 Patch Notes!10 Jul 2013, 14:30 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Jul 2013, 14:20 PMUmbert No no, the changelog refers to the SdKfz 221! The SdKfz 222 with the KwK 30 L/38 2cm autocannon does 25 damage and has totally different values. Aha. So would that be the vanilla SC? You'll have to excuse me, their proper names refuse to stick in my head. Jump back to quoted post10 Jul 2013, 14:20 PMPara Oh, ok, I misunderstood the language. So the 50% chance is for an individual squad member (or model as people call them, why are they called this btw?) to die, not the entire squad? If so I retract that criticism of the change... Yeh, it's per 'entity', as I believe they are called. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Comments on the July 10 Patch Notes!10 Jul 2013, 14:08 PM So, if we assume that the patchnotes are talking about the upgunned SC, then it means its natural enemy (the M3) will die faster (and with that a 25% chance to kill both snipers, a 6.25% chance to kill all engies and 1.56% chance to kill an entire guard squad). Could be good. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: What Exactly is Unbalanced?9 Jul 2013, 21:33 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Jul 2013, 20:19 PMGodz_Mercenary I read on a forum AT grenades and Panzerfausts were the same range? I think the problem lies in that if you were close when the animation starts, and then you drive out of the way to put distance between you, the grenade will cover that distance, even if the vehicle is now further away than the range of the 'nade. If you follow. In: Strategy Desk
