Thread: MG vs. MG play27 Oct 2014, 02:27 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Oct 2014, 17:07 PMGbpirate I'm not talking about MG spam. Omega_Warrior, in the example I gave, the MG42 was already deployed and began shooting at the Maxim before it was even set up, then ended up losing. Well Without seeing it I can't fully say for sure why this would happen. There are plenty of other variables, such as cover. If the maxim was in yellow or green cover and the MG42 was in neutral or red, the MG42 might have not been able to suppress the maxim with one salvo which would give the Maxim time to set up and fire back. The MG42 could have been halfway through it's salvo already or needed to reload. If they Maxim appeared on the edge of the MG42's arc it would have also taken the MG42 a second to turn the gun. There is so many variables I couldn't say for sure just with a loose explanation. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Obersoldaten and stuff26 Oct 2014, 06:59 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Oct 2014, 05:55 AMbutterfingers158 BAR doesn't fall off as hard as STG-44s, the closest weapon profile wise is the FG-42 I think. It might have been in the alpha, but I remember the devs stating that it was considered a assault-rifle profile. Assault rifle profile is good short-medium range which is what the BAR does excell at. It just has a lower drop off rate due to it being a upgrade instead of already on the unit like the STGs. As well as for balance reasons. It just seems odd because there isn't a large sample of assault rifle profile weapons in the game. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: MG vs. MG play26 Oct 2014, 06:50 AM MG's accuracy and suppression get worse as they get suppressed. By the time, they are fully pinned they might keep firing, but they wont hit or suppress anything. The maxim isn't really better then the MG42, but it's faster set up and better performance at far range give it a little bit of an advantage at MG vs MG fights. The MG42 is meant to be a defensive unit to use against large infantry attacks. It is best for it's ability to easily suppress multiple squads as well as having a high DPS to use against light vehicles and charging infantry. The maxim is a more aggressive support unit which excels to quickly maneuvering and suppressing high value infantry. It's lower suppressing AOE makes it more likely to get overwhelm by multiple squads. Both the DSHK and M2HB are meant to be superior to the MG42 since they are more expensive and will have an advantage against the MG42 since they bith have quick set ups. While maintaining superior suppression or damage. Either way the MG that usually wins is the one that is already set up. The allied MGs are just faster at beating the MG42 to the punch.

The BAR profile is actually pretty similar to the Garand profile, just moved up the axis to do more DPS at all ranges. I believe that relic uses the assault rifle profile for bars. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USA Balance25 Oct 2014, 02:35 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2014, 01:34 AMTobis I admire your optimism, but Relic has stated multiple times that all AA content is singleplayer, including the ranger pre-order bonus. Maybe they will surprise us. That doesn't mean they won't release multiplayer content simultaneously. The fact that there are ranger units in multiplayer almost assures we will see it in multiplayer eventually. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Open Beta Changelog22 Oct 2014, 03:49 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Oct 2014, 03:41 AMCynthia_RE There will be another Patch before the end of October. We are even calling it the October patch! It might just be a .GIF of a dancing pumpkin. (I am completely kidding, plz don't hate me) The final October patch will be everything that is in this Beta (possibly with some minor tweaks based on feedback and data we pull after having certain features in front of a larger game-playing population) plus some other stuff we have not yet confirmed and shared yet. We have some feedback threads going in our forums, in order to try and condense some of the comments and feedback we get. Feel free to stop by and share your thoughts! Interesting. What's so special about this patch that it needs a special beta. Spectator mode? Or is this just how relic's doing patches now? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Beta Won't start22 Oct 2014, 03:33 AM Seems that there was a problem with the alienFX program and they just fixed it. The missing factions is also unintentional and will be fixed tomorrow. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Open Beta Changelog22 Oct 2014, 03:29 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Oct 2014, 03:27 AMiTzDusty The ACTUAL patch. For the live build. Not for live, no. I figured this wouldn't go live until the ardenness release, but anyone can play on the beta whenever, so it might as well be live. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Open Beta Changelog22 Oct 2014, 03:26 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Oct 2014, 03:22 AMiTzDusty As per Cynthia, before the end of October (so realistically, sometime next week!) What are you talking about, it's out right now. Should be right there in your steam library. In: COH2 Balance
