Thread: ISU SquadWipe-Foundation5 Sep 2014, 09:57 AM The ISU is broken by design. A unit that counters infantry and tanks alike, has great range and good armor can't ever be and will never be fine. At least one of these attributes needs to go if you ever want it to be balanced. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet Snipers Squad are not fun3 Sep 2014, 08:09 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Sep 2014, 07:21 AMHFSzsoci No, and No,Sir. The Coh1 dull sniper game was dull for alltime cloak, and THE Biggest RNG factor in the whole Coh series, from 50% succes rate at counter snipe, while the enemy targeted sniper immediatly start moving after his shoot. The balance was Perfect between two snipers, the game system was silly. Now the sniper game system better imo with NO all time cloak, and no 50% rec. accuracy modifier on the move, but the balance vs two member and one member sniper type, is ZERO. While these aspects may have added to the annoying sniper gameplay, I don't see them as the main factor. In my opinion vCoH sniper design was retarded because you pretty much had to build a sniper to counter the sniper. I don't know why people think that the two snipers must be able to hardcounter eachother, I'd rather see the game offering different viable counters to deal with them. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet Snipers Squad are not fun3 Sep 2014, 07:00 AM Jump back to quoted post31 Aug 2014, 06:09 AMFestiveLongJohns IMO the biggest issue with the unit is the get out of jail free card. The sprint ability is a joke, and allows for the soviet player to get away with shitty micro and get out of bad situations. IMO the reinforcement cost of the sniper squad needs to be upped, so if you do manage to kill one member of the team you really feel it. +1 I would like to see sprint replaced with something else. I would also advocate a hp decrease or a reinforcement cost increase. Mirroring the snipers of both factions is a terrible idea, we've been there in vCoH, all it delivers is more dull gameplay.

Thread: Elite OKW infantry able to spawn behind enemy lines24 Aug 2014, 14:22 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Aug 2014, 13:36 PMKreatiir Is it fair to have to put time and effort in burning all the buildings / satchel / democharge / mine / razor wire every building on maps like anger or trois ponts? I wouldn't say it's unfair, in the end it's just one squad behind your lines, not a whole army. Burning down (wiring/mine/democharge/ whatever) the few neuralgic buildings takes a passable effort.

Thread: Jagdtiger - The Gamebreaker23 Aug 2014, 11:37 AM Speaking from a 2v2 perspective I've played several games with and against the JT and I actually only find it useful against the ISU-152. Against other strats you invest alot of fuel in a heavy slow and sluggish super cannon that's very often not worth it's investement. Going JT means pretty much no other at than shrecked Volks and Raketenwerfers. So I think the Jagd is fine in 1v1 and 2v2, 3v3+ however it's a different thing. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW Puma22 Aug 2014, 11:45 AM On second thought I have to say that I wouldn't recommend a change to smoke. The Puma is a shoot and scoot unit and being able to pop smoke and back off kinda belongs to this role. I think a penetration decrease is the better way to go. A vehicle in this role should be all about flanking. Right now you can reliably penetrate Allie's medium tanks frontally. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW Puma21 Aug 2014, 08:14 AM Making smoke a vet ability seems to be te best solution imo. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Easy 821 Aug 2014, 08:07 AM The Easy 8 is about right cost effective wise. One might argue that It should cost a tad more fuel (maybe 5 or so). The actual Problem with the E8 (and the T-34/85) is that they don't require any tech to be called in. This allows the player to quickly dispatch two consecutive Tanks, when your opponent probably just managed to get his first one out. The Panther however has a different problem. The OH Panther is barley accessible and clearly overshadowed by the Tiger (which also profits from how the call-in system works), on top of that, it's performance for cost is mediocre at best. The OKW Panther on the other hand, is (strat depending) more accessible and statswise superior to the OH-model, yet still overpriced imo. In: COH2 Balance
