Thread: 2v2/1v1 balance21 Aug 2015, 15:18 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Aug 2015, 14:22 PMRobbie_Rotten Are you suggesting that caches should only benefit the player who built them? I agree on idea, but then I feel like 4v4 randumbs (even though the game is designed around 1v1) would just become a rush to get caches down. I wouldn't mind seeing cache's removed from the game personally. They could just put in a cache stacking machanic, so teammates don't have to fight for cache space. That would also add incentive to raid for caches if 1 cache could potentially be worth 800mp of your enemies investments. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 2v2/1v1 balance21 Aug 2015, 05:54 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Aug 2015, 04:14 AMRobbie_Rotten How could you fix cache sharing without leaving OKW severely disadvantaged or making it a scramble to put down caches between individual players? I've been thinking about this a lot but I'm stumped. They would be no more disadvantaged then they would be in 1v1. All getting rid of cache sharing would do would be to make the 4v4 econonomy look more like it does in 1v1. 1v1 is what is the intended design, and the huge difference in economy is what makes balance in the higher player modes so crazy. Don't forget that this also means allies won't have as much as well. I don't think OKW will do as bad as you think. They are currently the strongest 4v4 faction by far. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 2v2/1v1 balance21 Aug 2015, 04:08 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Aug 2015, 04:03 AMStorm267 I think so too but, I worry the quest for the 4v4 woes will ruin the better balance in 2v2/1v1. 4v4s biggest problem is cache sharing. Dealing with that would leave 1v1 completely the same and have little effect on 2v2. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 2v2/1v1 balance21 Aug 2015, 03:52 AM Overall I think it's pretty even. Victory usually goes to the best players. I think all relic needs to work on now is work on increasing the number of strategies and diversity. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: M26 Pershing/Calliope Debate20 Aug 2015, 20:48 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Aug 2015, 20:35 PMF1sh The pershing and calliope is coming on September 3rd so there's no point of this thread ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) THat's never happening. It would be a balance clusterfuck to balance brits and all the new commanders all in one month. Most likely the patch afterwards. In: Lobby

Thread: Soviet BS-3 Anti-Tank Gun19 Aug 2015, 07:57 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2015, 07:49 AMnee Besides asymetrical gameplay, the reason why is because SU-85, ISU-152, and now SU-76 fulfill your antitank needs just fine. What will happen with units like BS3 is either no one uses anything but BS3 because it's so much better...or no one uses BS3 because it's hardly more practical. If you want late-game team game support, you get one or more of the above. That's a terrible argument. By that reasoning Ostheer has schreks, pak-40s, stugs, and panthers which are all better then what soviets have. So why do they have the PAK 43 and elephant? In: COH2 Gameplay

Sharing resources is part of teamplay, but should be much less rewarding for OKW. Sharing resources is part of teamplay when one player is actually sharing his resources. The whermacht resource drop is perfectly fine since there is a set number of resouces given for the investment. Caches are completely different, because the player making the cache made an investment and is gaining the benefit of that investment. While his teammate is also gaining the benefits as well with 0 investment. It ends up paying off double or even triple then it would normally. Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 09:58 AMMr. Someguy Bad idea, because then you'll have some players hogging all the strategic points with their own caches, while other players are blowing up allied caches so they can make their own caches, and then that person gets butthurt and starts shelling his teammate's base. For that to work you'd either need to make caches stackable on the same point, or make them buildable anywhere in the sector. Yeah just make them stackable. It's no big deal. Better then keeping things the way they are. In: Lobby
Thread: Soviet BS-3 Anti-Tank Gun19 Aug 2015, 07:24 AM It doesn't really match USSR style. Almost everything the soviets have is an all-rounder meaning it's mixes both AI and AT. That's why we have the ISU-152 instead of the SU-100. There are plenty of units that didn't make it into the game. Don't see why this one is any more necessary then the rest. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Faction comparison by Relic18 Aug 2015, 07:09 AM Jump back to quoted post18 Aug 2015, 06:28 AMAmiPolizeiFunk Also a keen observation. This is probably the root of COH2's balance problems. How could it/should it be resolved? For starters we can make it so that caches don't benefit teammates. Of course the balance is going to be crazy when players are receiving 4 times the fuel without making a single investment. OKW in particular is never supposed to be receiving such high resource income it's no wonder they are so strong in 4v4s where they have a feild full of fuel caches supporting them. With caches only benefiting the player, tank numbers and pacing for each player would be more like 1v1 levels. And USF won't have to deal with as large a number of heavier vehicles that their AT was never meant to handle. In: Lobby
