Thread: Concerns of a COH fan12 Aug 2018, 18:16 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2018, 10:03 AMDraculdracul Hi there, i am a casual COH player. Who loves PVE gameplay just for the reason that it relexes me afther a long day work. I play coh2 with intervals, a few weeks not, then a few weeks intensively. But lately i start to loose interest in the game because i feel that the coh2 policy for balance issues is just nerving units. My problem is, that you give me something to play with, which i start to embrace after a few times playing, and after a while you nerve it to a point that its not worth playing with. For example, the German mortar, German Stug and German AT gun. I don't know when you did it or why, but stop giving things and take it back. Find other ways for balancing and stop breaking the game for casual gamers. I say this as a real fan of the genre and i know i will get a lot of criticism on this post from more "professional" pvp gamers. But it think that PVP playstyle is to dominate ATM at a point that it ruins my beloved game. I'll echo tightrope and Nosliw's points here as well. The realm of PvE is the Steam Workshop. There are so many enjoyable mods that are really built around AI matches and casual gameplay in general. Not just mods, but there's a vast library of maps that would never be competitive for PvP automatch but are quite fun and immersive for a (co-op) game against AI. In: Lobby

Thread: 1vs1 Removing map from automatch11 Aug 2018, 15:43 PM Semois was an excellently balanced map for a specific reason: Isolated +10 fuel adjacent to base. CoH2 doesn't have the territory points that made Semois (or Langres for that matter) actually work. Angoville, even, has struggled with CoH2's territory system. The efforts being put in to try and make the CoH1-era maps are admirable, but I don't think capable of bearing fruit. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: 1vs1 Removing map from automatch10 Aug 2018, 14:10 PM Wasn't the winter version 1v1 and 2v2? I thought the 'other' start location in the south/west is/was equidistant to the north. I wonder if it got changed if the wrong start locations were removed. In: Summer patch 2018
Thread: Buff Shocks7 Aug 2018, 23:31 PM The dropoff in damage at range is probably a little too steep on Shocks these days. That might be it. The line up of commanders of EFA factions is more of the problem, IMO. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: UKF feels entirely uphill, the entire game7 Aug 2018, 23:20 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Aug 2018, 23:01 PMMongal Snares would go a long way in fixing the faction. I dont understand why they should be on sappers though. Every other faction has snares on there core infantry so to me IS should get the snare. Interestingly enough, OKW didn't have snares either originally. UKF were designed to have the best snare in the game on release, the sniper. It was removed and they were never compensated for it. The AEC does have the stun shot, though, which isn't quite a snare, but with proper AT it is nearly a delete button on enemy tanks. I always thought that either the PIAT itself or Sappers that get/pick up PIATs could get a snare. I mean, this was before PIATs became homing missiles, mind you. But then again, I've largely kept UKF at an arms length since it was released since so much of the faction is/was such an affront to the development of CoH2 and the franchise itself. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: AI Grenade ratio usage per faction from GCS2 quali7 Aug 2018, 02:12 AM Are these numbers for the times the command was given, or how many times the ability actually fired? Because those are very different things being measured. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: OKW UP?6 Aug 2018, 23:47 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Aug 2018, 16:29 PMblvckdream That´s completly baseless. AEC´s usually dont make it until the late game. It's baseless that UKF doesn't have a decent snare and that the AEC continues to be an option to fill that roll? Jump back to quoted post5 Aug 2018, 16:29 PMblvckdream Neither do Pumas. Uh: Jump back to quoted post5 Aug 2018, 16:15 PMZombiFrancis pumas are too flimsy I'm not sure what the point is of simultaneously calling my statement baseless while also confirming the point I was making. Jump back to quoted post5 Aug 2018, 16:29 PMblvckdream JP4 is cheaper than Firefly and eats any UKF tank for breakfast. Cromwell can´t pen any OKW T4 tank with any regularity, sure it´s cheaper than a OKW P4 but that doesn´t make it better value for ressources. Centaur is still decent but makes you overly reliant on AT-guns that can be rushed/stukaed etc. Comet´s are way too expensive for what they do, 500 MP/180f is just crazy for what you get. Only remaining thing is the Churchill which is a decent choice, unless there are Panthers on the field already. It won´t pen OKW T4 tanks with regularity but at least it has lots of HP and smoke and thus good survivability. I bolded the important part of your post. OKW stuka zu fuss is great at clearing team weapons, like ATGs, (especially non-soviet ones), I'll give you that. Again I don't think it's UKF's tanks that are the problem. While I think it has more to do with UKF's low number of options to disable enemy armor I do think you make a valid point with "stukaed". In: OKW Strategies
Thread: OKW UP?5 Aug 2018, 16:15 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Aug 2018, 10:48 AMblvckdream How is that? UKF late game is pretty bad because of their poor tanks. And infantry superiority doesn´t matter as much when there are lots of vehicles around. Plus OKW can get Obers that shred Infantry Sections after Vet 2. OKW struggles on open maps vs UKF in early and midgame before they get several tanks. Reason for that is T0 MG, T0 UC, Sniper, Infantry Sections. I dunno, UKF has got their tanks covered nicely. They just tend to be lacking in applying damaged engine to enemy tanks. The AEC's stun shot continues to be an option. The thing with OKW against UKF is the pricepoint. Ostheer can throw down StuGs in a pinch, but for OKW pumas are too flimsy and JP4s too expensive in a drawn out fight with UKF. The AEC stun with AT support should not be underestimated, especially if you consider the Firefly and its tulip rockets. In: OKW Strategies
