Thread: [Winter Balance Update] SOV Feedback8 Jan 2021, 06:13 AM Assaulting a mg from the front without being supressed is bleeding the attacker out. Thats why maxim spam is still to be seen in bigger matches i guess Edit: I dont think maxim needs to be changed atm In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] UKF Feedback4 Jan 2021, 17:22 PM you don´t get it.. and i dont mean that offensive. i struggle hard to explain that AI thingy more detailed. Ok, give me another try to explain AI behaviour. In the patchmod UKF will feel weakened because the earlier engineers will build bofors and mortar pits sooner. That means less map presence overall. If they didnt have the engineers put into T0 they would build more maniline infantry until the tech is done. This is an example and i can asure you they will do it more likely on other maps then the one i forgot the name of lol You simply cannot compare AI to player power levels. They dont use units the intended way SU76 going into your infantry, flak halftracks hiding behind enemy lines in fog of war and trying to stay hidden, they even have a different approach in using ressources for tech/nades. They don´t build mines - never will, they´re infantry won´t vault over obstacles, ukf for example won´t even build medium tanks on some maps and waste the fuel for bofors until they start spamming Churchills. This is more or less scripted behavior - not artifical intelligence that "thinks" clever in a way to overcome your playstyle, not even adapt to your playstyle. They just build, spam, avoid grenades, and run around you AT-gun with HE-Shermans no matter how many snares you throw at them. It wont work to balance the game around that behaviour. Players are way stronger in playstyle, tactics, positioning etc. Players re-evaluate (or atleast should) situations, npcs can be brought to a point where you almost know what they are going to do next because of their "script" In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] UKF Feedback4 Jan 2021, 12:04 PM Hmm... You shouldnt use Ai battles as a significant source of balance. OKW AI tends to not build any medium/heavy tanks at all. And Bots in general tend to build light vehicles no matter the enemy field presence or stage of battle. That said, Comps on allied side will behave different compared to Comps on Axis side. You will always see a pattern. Also bots from expert to easy have a really stupid behaviour when it comes to using buildings as cover or the cover mechanic at all. - sometimes they switch going in and out rapidly - sometimes they stand still when being flamed. Comps dont use the tech tree as designed nowadays. That means there are units a player/ the community would think are mandatory and a Comp starts to use them not even the slightest way they were designed for. Bots dont play the game as people do. They are designed to "know" enemy field presence through the fog of war. They are designed (experts) to flood the player with numerous amounts of units. Hell, they sometimes even have a fixed tactic for a certain map thats not going to change. Their commander choice is not as random as you would think. I only use exp battles for "training purposes". The more efficient i use my units and ressources against AI the more confident i grow in PvP where i tend to be more careful overall. Its a good "training" to get comfortable with multitasking and timings. Though, Comps are predictable: you always know when they start spawning their first vehicle whereas in pvp a player might fool you with that. To sum it up. With what i said above, it is possible for a UKF bot to behave in a such inefficient way that even being on exp level they act like little children. (Man, wasn´t it the same in CoH1?)

Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OKW Feedback3 Jan 2021, 20:13 PM iirc sturms repair bonus comes with both schrecks and sweeper. Of course its not additive. Can be wrong tho, didnt fact check It's an interesting idea, but an even further pop-decrease would be the wrong approach as they already go down 1 point with the patch. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: [Winter Balance Update] General Discussion27 Dec 2020, 12:50 PM Is there anything that could be done about grenade warnings? Because i feel like its still happening a lot of times that my squad gives the warning way too late or not at all. Not at all might be an exagregation, not sure anymore about my last matches.

Thread: [Winter Balance Update] UKF Feedback25 Dec 2020, 17:53 PM Cries in Sturmpios which are much more expensive and offer less Atleast having sweeper and 1 shreck at the same time can make it valuable In: COH2 Balance

Its the reason why i mostly post in okw topics. its the only faction i feel i understand not only well but am experienced with it despite my player profile. alot of people in this forum should behave the same. thats how feedback should work i think. Just like in V1 patch when people were going crazy about panthers accuracy buff. That disscussion was a useless mess. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] UKF Feedback23 Dec 2020, 11:07 AM Sappers have a lot of potential with their low cost. But it has to be tested. It´s too soon to argue. I am all in for testing. But i am very bad with UKF hmu in chatbox In: COH2 Balance
