Thread: Commander Update Beta 2021 - OKW Feedback19 Apr 2021, 07:06 AM I'd like to see the 3rd rework of JLI like giving them another upgrade that grants them something like STG44s and a grenade like the old OST Stormtroopers. So in the end it is left to player to choose between a long range anti-sniper/support infantry and an STG44 wielding camouflaging ambush squad. So at least that gives some more flavor to Scavenge commander. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: okw is trash19 Apr 2021, 06:06 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Apr 2021, 03:20 AMZyllen New players see the strength of the front line of the OKW and think its a good faction. And this is true: SP , obers and vg are stronger than the ostheer´s grens by a large margin. But at the same time OKW support weapons and light vehicle selection are absolutely shit. So okw players play by their only strength: stall to obers and p4 rush at higher levels of play support weapons really make a difference. and at those levels you really see the okw struggling. Disagreed on that one. OKW team weapons are not even bad. Even though I agree that the Raketen is not as good as the other it still has the retreat which is super useful for preserving manpower. Those casualties add up really quickly. And MG34 is just underrated as hell. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: UKF in ML so far...18 Apr 2021, 19:55 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Apr 2021, 19:50 PMgeneral_gawain snip TBH, we all have PTSD from release UKF, post nerfs UKF etc. It is weak nowadays and I'll take it over any previous iterations of UKF.

Thread: Buff for 5 man grens18 Apr 2021, 13:19 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Apr 2021, 07:17 AMMr Carmine 100% correct. The value for vsl is and should be durability and field presence not brute forcing at every range vs more expensive inf who dont have pgrens or obers and good mg's backing them up. Every faction other than SOV have decent MGs. MG-42 being unparalleled is nothing but a myth nowadays. Every other faction have their options to face the Panzergrenadier and the role of infantry being that split is unique to OST. (Which is good no complaints here) Ober is not an OST unit you know. Jump back to quoted post18 Apr 2021, 07:17 AMMr Carmine Now just tommies need a simaler aproach. Go bolster and takes 1 weapon slot or stay 4 men with two slots. Updated the post. British infantry sections were problematic because they could go bolster super early (0.5-1 CP timing) and smash your infantry very early on with alpha strikes. I think you guys are really not understanding the difference between the impacts of a minute 1 alpha strike and an alpha strike at 25 minutes. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: UKF in ML so far...17 Apr 2021, 22:56 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Apr 2021, 22:46 PMZeroZeroNi why can't we make the Brit Faction function more like OST. Like buff the MG, adjust the sections and such. Their MG is already really good. People really under estimate how strong Vickers is. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Buff for 5 man grens17 Apr 2021, 20:33 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Apr 2021, 19:59 PMJPA32 Fundamentally a late game upgrade has to be incredibly powerful in some form because it's accessible for a shorter amount of time than standard upgrades thus providing less long term value. an example late game 5 man Grenadier upgrade would step on the toes of the existing LMG upgrade (Or any of the current existing upgrades for Grens depending on it's intention) which would cause it to either be overshadowed in it's role by a current upgrade, or completely transcend it and all others by being too powerful forcing you to wait for it with nearly no in-between which would be bad design. We don't see such issues with SVTs or PPSh's tho do we ? Jump back to quoted post17 Apr 2021, 19:59 PMJPA32 That being said, current Gren design has it's own balancing issues with basically every usable doctrine at the moment being something that modifies or replaces Grens which is a symptom of a greater problem with the squad on a fundamental level. I agree on that one. Everyone uses Ostruppen with PGs nowadays. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Buff for 5 man grens17 Apr 2021, 19:45 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Apr 2021, 19:42 PMjagd wölfe Ok, let me get this VSL adds another man, a weapon cooldown bonus and a volksgrenadier stg. Nobody uses it because it's trash, and you want an upgrade that adds a 5th man... so that you can replace lmg grenadiers with grenadiers with an extra model... in late game Is that right? I'm saying a revised model of this could be made to work and even 5 man grens would be just better than the current iteration of VSL just because they could at least alpha strike at times with their 16 damage rifles.

Thread: Buff for 5 man grens17 Apr 2021, 19:33 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Apr 2021, 19:30 PMjagd wölfe That nobody would ever use it. Why would you ever cripple yourself by losing so much firepower? Why not give the option to do it ? "Nobody will use it" is a bad statement. I would personally stick with 1-2 of my Grens with LMGs and keep the last two or later replacements for wiped squads with the upgrade. There is no justification of keeping it as another 2CP upgrade. Just make it locked behind 3rd Tier and we have ourselves something unique and late game focused. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Buff for 5 man grens17 Apr 2021, 19:28 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Apr 2021, 19:27 PMjagd wölfe The problem is that Grenadiers focus their dps output around one model, 5 men lmg grenadiers would risk being op What is the problem with having an upgrade that comes late but is mutually exclusive with the LMG then ?

Thread: Buff for 5 man grens17 Apr 2021, 19:17 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Apr 2021, 19:12 PMjagd wölfe The only way to make Jeager and VSL upgrades viable is to remove any bonuses to RA or stats and merge them across all commanders, go back to 5 men grenadiers with a G43 Making VSL into something like bolster or Mobilize Reserves while postponing its timing could definitely work. It is not black magic or rocket science. Also, as a visual thing, can we get the veteran leader as an Obersoldaten model ? @Sander93 In: COH2 Balance
