Thread: Is this M3 balanced (see video)? 30 Mar 2014, 11:02 AM I just completed some testing and it dose not matter if you keep facing the pioneers from the front, the m3 plus flamer engineer is still no match for 2 pioneers: Both m3s died, the fraps video recording was not long enough to show that. Also, using the m3 long range against 1 pioneer squad takes 1 full minute to kill it: This is too much. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Is this M3 balanced (see video)? 30 Mar 2014, 09:02 AM I plan to test some of the suggestions in this thread. If someone would like to help me do the testing pm me. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Is this M3 balanced (see video)? 29 Mar 2014, 16:10 PM From what I gathered the m3 hit points and armor were reduced and of course pioneers damage output increased. As others pointed out the main purpuse of the m3 is to carry a unit (manily eng) and kill mgs. If it can't get close it's pretty useless. Too bad that after they made t1 viable they over nerfed this unit. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Is this M3 balanced (see video)? 29 Mar 2014, 15:11 PM Its not me using this unit. Prior to the patch this never happened against 2 pioneers (front or rear armor exposed). The german sc is stronger or cons/eng do not output as much damage as pioneers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Is this M3 balanced (see video)? 29 Mar 2014, 15:06 PM Watch the m3 scout car with flamer eng rush 2 squads of pioneers and see what happens: Is this balanced? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: HOLY POTATOES !!! patch 3/2528 Mar 2014, 10:23 AM Update March 28th, 2014 Updates UI Fix on Faceplat when Automatching Repair Engineer issue addressed Balance Grenade AOE Profile Now correctly average out the damage based on old AOE profile German Snipers Resolved a miscalculation in the aim time to cooldown conversion, snipers should feel more responsive as a result. Sight now correctly set to 45 Soviet Sniper Resolved a miscalculation in the aim time to cooldown conversion, snipers should feel more responsive as a result. Sight now correctly set to 45 Penal Corrected weapon profile to properly scale with unit cost Corrected weapon profile to properly scale with unit cost; this resulted in a slight increase in damage output Shock Trooper Corrected weapon profile to properly scale with unit cost Moving accuracy from 0.5 to 0.8 Corrected weapon profile to properly scale with unit cost; this resulted in a slight increase in damage output Guard Rifles Fixed an issue which caused the DP-28 to burst for long periods of time; damage output remains relatively the same. Special Rifle Command Manpower cost from 200 to 120 Build time from 95 to 80 Support Weapon Kampaneya Manpower cost from 240 to 160 Bunker Health from 600 to 480 This patch will address some of the problems the deployment patch introduced but it shows relic has no clear direction on this game. Now t1 will be viable for soviets but will cost pretty much the same as t1 for germans. It used to be that germans got no fighting units from t0 but got cheap t1 building. Soviets were the complete opposite, they got fighting units at t0 but t1 or t2 were expensive. It would be interesting to see how this patch will work without blurring the lines between both factions. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: HOLY POTATOES !!! patch 3/2527 Mar 2014, 08:31 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Mar 2014, 07:06 AMLe Wish First sensible post in ages in this thread. I understand there is frustration, some of it due to the fact you have to readapt and play diffrently. Overall I think the changes are good and interesting. A lot of players seem to not use smoke, it is a great way to close the distance and get units in close. You can even use it as a decoy to force the opponent to move or reconsider his strong positions. I still have to relearn how to play some maps, but honestly I think it's more fun to learn than just stick to the old meta that I was thinking got a bit stale anyways. The changes are a complete u-turn on many of the previous changes that were made to improve the game. Since this is a drastic change why didn't they make it the beginning and work on it from there? Now again we have to wait for how long before incompetent relic fixes things as silly as pios being a match to cons? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: HOLY POTATOES !!! patch 3/2527 Mar 2014, 06:22 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Mar 2014, 04:14 AMFestiveLongJohns I agree with the general sentiment that the russians need some help, but lets try to keep this thread concrete and constructive. All the crying about how your conscript spam isn't working isn't going to get us any closer to finding ways for the soviets to compete, and it certainly isn't constructive enough feedback for relic to work with. If you guys want quick change, start making posts that are actually constructive, rather than just raging and posting a "clever"(irrelevant) meme picture about the current state of the game. These forums are almost unreadable in the 1-2 days following a major patch. If I were working for Relic I wouldn't even bother browsing these forums until at least a week later when everyones blood has stopped boiling and are thinking rationally again. It's the other way around, people are venting because relic is incompetent. In: COH2 Gameplay
