That's something I miss from the old CoH1.
There always was something you could do to counter a unit.
Snipers? -> Motorbike/Jeep.
In CoH2 it's pretty often "It MIGHT work but you have to sacrifice some troops and it is by far no hardcounter". |
ost sniper is deadlier than soviet one (shoots faster, recloacks faster, you know for the big 6 man squads of soviet)
what counters does usa have? atleast volks are with 5 compared to 4 grens
you can either charge snipers with some squads or split up and use 3 squads on 3 locations vs his 2 snipers on 1 location, and often they use a 3d squad to protect their snipers
once more troops come on the field the snipers are a liability
|
i don't think mortars are a good counter to a blob |
whats balanced in 1v1 can be rediculously op in a 4v4
walking stucka for ex just lvl's an entire defensive position
on most maps flanking is next to impossible so no advantage of allied midgame tanks
etc etc
thats why you get conflicting messages, not everyone plays the same game |
bugge,
jagdpanzer is like a zis, but much better, use it like that
and you're right about pumas t34 is stronger, but puma has the snipe range and is nimble

playing this game since beta last year
mostly play 3v3 and 4v4, and mostly as soviets due to queue times
tried OKW for the first time yesterday (couple 3v3 maps)
they are by far the strongest faction ever!
i had an easy time even when figuring out how to play them.
and believe me, i made many bad decisions playing OKW
ohyeh queues are 80% axis, so 20% are too stubborn to change faction or don't know any better
and superior units for higher cost has screwed over 3v3+ balance since last year and okw is even worse in that respect. your not limited by resources but by popcap and okw is mighty strong at popcap.
and its not just resources, to more camping the better for axis |
plain and simple?
try owning as hard with soviets as you claim they own |
they're dead, happents to all infantry
the play dead and then disappear thing hasn't been triggerd |
it would help alot if people realised that 1v1 is a whole different game than 3v3 or 4v4
there it counts who can field the strongest army at popcap
in 1v1 resource starvation for okw is much more meaningfull |
in a card game, people with an ace up their sleeves are called cheaters
imho you got cheated out of a well deserved victory |
