Thread: Volksgrenadiers [DBP] 6 Dec 2017, 16:21 PM I think the reason no one bats an eye at molotov is because that means fuel had been invested solely in getting molotovs, and the player is using conscripts. Both of those are very significant build and tech choices. Volks incendiary nades? Their STGs? Not so much. And by not so much, I mean not at all. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [DBP] Recon Doctrine feedback thread6 Dec 2017, 15:27 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Dec 2017, 15:24 PMMr.Smith More like like an ability that allows you to spawn S-mine fields at the enemy's retreat path on demand You're right that isn't an new ability developed in this balance patch at all.

Thread: [DBP] Guard Rifle Combined Arms Tactics feedback6 Dec 2017, 15:17 PM The sheer volume of changes that are being presented hasn't allowed for me to even begin to test a lot of it. I am only able to sit down and test things on the weekends, and I can't even keep track of what's changed, let alone test it all. It may be useful to provide a list of changes you haven't received much feedback on so some of us can try to prioritize...? In: COH2 Balance

Thread: December Balance Preview6 Dec 2017, 00:09 AM If they are used a ton and prove to be too strong in the near future then more changes can be looked at I think it's in the best interest of the game to avoid this type of situation with any change. In: Lobby

Kek. AEs are nice because they're the engineer unit that USF wishes it had already. But a squad of AE aren't worth any amount of fuel. In fact, none of the callins that come with infantry are worth the fuel. Be that assault guards, the lmg grens, the 250HT pgrens. Unless that halftrack can somehow upgrade to have a mortar team inside, it's a dead investment as far as fuel is concerned. I find it funny they reduced the manpower by 170, but then one would have to abandon the vehicle to use AEs and put 200mp REs in it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: when is december update coming up?5 Dec 2017, 23:13 PM Once the balance patch gets a balance patch they should be ready to balance the patch. In: Lobby
Thread: December Balance Preview5 Dec 2017, 15:05 PM Player interactions are typically the first casualty of a balance discussion. You can't quantify tricking an opponent on the spreadsheet, so you may as well discount that such a thing is even possible. In: Lobby
Thread: Volksgrenadiers [DBP] 5 Dec 2017, 04:33 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Dec 2017, 03:56 AMJae For Jett snip By suggesting that volks have more of a role with supporting team weapons does not imply I'm saying that team weapons should be the new focus of the faction. I'm saying that volks should not be the focus of the faction. You're reading too much into what I was saying about team weapons. [(Team weapon management) and (support)] is a huge part of volks, or at least IMO they should be." Volks without StGs is how the unit was designed in the faction. Changing their weapon upgrade to a more definitive role change, rather than a muni dump bonus would help the unit work more in conjunction with the other infantry available to OKW. All of OKW's call-in infantry and Obersoldaten really excel at long range. Falls and StG Obers can handle close range certainly, but they're not necessarily available, but the only OKW unit that's kind of a dedicated CQC unit are Sturmpioneers and they are split between many roles. Team weapons are a side note in the equation, like they are for OKW as a whole anyway. I don't expect much debate on making them the focus of the faction by any means to be fruitful. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Coh3 or new commanders/maps for coh2?5 Dec 2017, 02:50 AM I want CoH3 to have strong bones. The kind of bones you can build a franchise on. I would only want commanders and maps if it advances this goal, not competes with it. In: Lobby
