Thread: Grenades16 Sep 2013, 09:09 AM i made a couple tables about crits. you can find the infantry crits here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApmrrrPr20ncdEpuSHcxNko1VGVFYjczYXpFZWhqOHc&pli=1#gid=12 and vehicle crits are here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApmrrrPr20ncdEpuSHcxNko1VGVFYjczYXpFZWhqOHc&pli=1#gid=11 but to answer your question, crits are all based on the type of damage. so these instant kills are only for flamethrowers. explosives can cause a crit similar to the flamethrow though. it cant crit entities with >50% hp, but <50% hp has the same 10% chance to die. small arms and ballistic (tank guns) damage have no crits.

Thread: Grenades16 Sep 2013, 08:25 AM youre very close strummingbird. youre right about the 10 damage on hit, but its actually 6 hp per second from the fire. also, flames actually have a 5% chance to instantly kill when the entity has >50% hp. at <50% hp the chance becomes 10%. that applies to flamethrowers as well. i feel like the chance for a crit has to be hapening more than once per second because flame crits are so common.

Thread: MG42 Post Patch15 Sep 2013, 19:45 PM i am sure. the dps is very dependent on the number of entities its search radius (radius around its target, from what i understand). sorry ive had a few mistakes lately. the spreadsheet has gotten so big now, its hard to make sure everything is updated. when 1 number changes, i end up having to change it in multiple places. multiply that by how many changes happen per patch, it can be a little difficult to keep track of at times. hope that doesnt bring all my numbers into question ive double checked these mg numbers multiple times now though. pqumsieh also verified that the mg42 dps can get to be 40+ when there are enough entities. id have to see that video youre talking about to really know how the engi beat the mg. lucky flame crits could keep killing the entity thats actually on the mg and prevent it from firing though.

Thread: Opinion on new IS-2?15 Sep 2013, 19:25 PM the is2 is pretty much a brummbar with 50% more damage, over 50% more armor, 95 more penetration, slightly more distance scatter, and a turret. brummbars dominate infantry. so does the is2. the is2 is much better at AT than a brummbar as well thanks to the damage, penetration and turret. you want the is2 to be able to kill panthers and tigers as well? what exactly do germans counter an is2 with then? the only things that could beat that is an elefant or pak43. any other tank would lose and schrecks already get 1 shotted. your realism argument has no place here. this is a game. it really doesnt matter who had the better gun or armor.

Thread: MG42 Post Patch15 Sep 2013, 19:01 PM the maxim sucks at its role? how do you figure? if the maxim was useless last patch, what does that make the mg42 this patch? i just checked my suppression tables and realized there was a mistake. the correct numbers show that the maxim suppresses and pins faster than an mg42 at all ranges in this new patch. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApmrrrPr20ncdEpuSHcxNko1VGVFYjczYXpFZWhqOHc&pli=1#gid=6 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: MG42 Post Patch15 Sep 2013, 18:48 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Sep 2013, 18:21 PMc r u C e So why all this cry on the forums??...Seriosly people can't live without instant pin? the maxim used to suppress last patch too. it was just slow. look how many soviets made threads about how it sucked. now the mg42 is slow as suppressing. no one ever said it wont suppress. given enough time, it obviously will. the issue is, does the mg42 suppress fast enough to stop a single conscript squad from walking straight at it to molotov? ive had instances where cons are able to do this and its not right, just like grens walking right at maxims to rifle nade wasnt right.

Thread: Opinion on new IS-2?15 Sep 2013, 17:55 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Sep 2013, 17:41 PMUGBEAR In the game, the JS-2 still lose to a inevitable Tiger tank which is much cheaper, that is the problem this is obviously a more extreme example, but thats like saying its a problem that an ostwind loses to an su85 because theyre the same price. not quite the same but you get my point. the soviet heavy tanks are far better than the german heavies against infantry. thats why they arent as good at AT. youll have to get a dev to answer why they chose to make it like that, but as it is now, you cant buff their AT ability unless you take away some AI in the process. IS2: 2.86 distance scatter, 7.5 angle scatter and 5 AOE ISU152: 13.2 distance scatter, 5 angle scatter and 6 AOE Tiger: 4.3 distance scatter, 7.5 angle scatter and 2.5 AOE Elefant: 10 distance scatter, 7.5 angle scatter and .5 AOE the tiger is pretty much a slightly improved p4 against infantry (about half the distance scatter and .75 faster shooting speed). the elefant is obviously worthless against inf. the soviet heavies just put them to shame at AI.

Thread: Grenades15 Sep 2013, 10:05 AM ill use the rifle nade as an example. the damage and radius numbers is different for other nades but this rule applies to all of them. the overall radius of the nade may be large, but only a small area does the full 80 damage. the AOE has a radius of 4m, but a near radius of only 1m. so entities within 1m of the impact recieve the full 80 damage and die. from 1m to 2m is linear from 80 damage down to 20 (i.e. a unit at 1.5 would take 50 damage), then from 2m to 4m is all 20 damage. so the circle that is shown when shooting a rifle nade is kind of decieving. only guys in the very center will die in 1 hit if the target is at full health. as for doing more damage to targets in cover, im pretty sure thats not true. i didnt look at all grenades though. light cover takes normal damage and heavy cover actually takes half damage.
