Thread: Maxim Spam22 Jul 2014, 17:59 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Jul 2014, 12:30 PMGreeb Is funny how the unit that throw balance to the drain in your examples is always the Maxim, but the enemy infantry killing you are USF rifles. Please, don't mix factions because even if maxim is overpowered and has a great sinergy with USF units, anything else that the soviet army has is terrible against OKW. Nerf Maxim and you are making OKW unbeatable for a soviet player. Before talking about how to nerf maxim we should talk about how to make the faction useful without resorting to cheesy strategies like maxim spam or m3+flamers. Then and only then we could nerf maxim. Are you being serious or what? That post was a sarcasm... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxims vs the OKW 22 Jul 2014, 17:54 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Jul 2014, 15:35 PMnordkind For everyone whining about Maxims...here is a video proofing that you cannot possibly suppress more than one squad with a Maxim. Micro will allow you to suppress 2 squads but after that every other squad will be on top of your Maxim. So the "attack move maxim" tactic can effectively be countered by an "attack move blob". Who is with me and thinks the Maxim needs a change from a damage dealing one squad suppressing platform to an area supression weapon (like all other mgs...) with smaller damage output? Soviets need a unit to punish blobs (and dont answer this with the katuscha...) Everyone hates blobbing and Mgs must be the way to punish blobs. But of course we want no second MG42. My two cents. Best regards You can switch targets you know? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxim Spam22 Jul 2014, 12:15 PM To be honest I want my Grenadiers to walk over everything like Rifles do. To bad you can't spam MG42 only and still win like with Maxims. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxim Spam22 Jul 2014, 11:56 AM Cut the crap Katitof. You know what I meant. I'm not talking about defeating it, I am talking about CONTROLLING it so my army can actually do the work. MG42 should be area denial weapon, currently it isn't. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxim Spam22 Jul 2014, 11:31 AM plus there is this point within Wermaht - US matchup when MG42 becomes irrelevant due to overwhelming firepower of Rifles + Lieutenant. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: State of the balance according to Imperial Dane22 Jul 2014, 09:04 AM I am not talking Elite commander. I'm talking US in general. @Heini Yes, but than comes the AA flacktack and the show begins. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: State of the balance according to Imperial Dane22 Jul 2014, 00:05 AM So I faced Easy 8 for the first time... It is going to be a bit of a rant but can someone explain to me how a faction so broken with this amount of broken commander was able to survive all the testing? Was everyone playing OKW or something? How is OKW supposed to survive all this late game armour madness using Puma and single Panther? Rocketwarfer gets one shoted by Shermans, Volksgrenadier only got single Shreck but you don't want to chase Shermans with them really, do you? USA starts with the best early game, goes into very strong mid game and than again very strong late game. How is this even fair? I give up. Can someone can show me how to deal with very good US player in 1v1 and 2v2 please? Right now I am loosing against players I shouldn't be loosing to. I can CLEARLY see they got even worse micro than me, they have no idea how to use their units effectively, they have no idea about BO and their capping order is one of the weirdest I have ever seen. They don't use covers, take fights in the middle of the road being in negative one, no even slightest hint of flanking. Nothing. To be honest all they do is blob. All day long and they win. They win every freaking time. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxim Spam21 Jul 2014, 22:53 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Jul 2014, 11:28 AMCruzz Riddle me this: Why can't a single maxim spammer even make it into the top-50 of 1vs1 if they're so insanely op like you say? And why doesn't a single one of the "top" players actually do it? I know of at least 2 examples (don't remember nicks) and there was this Jelly guy who said himself he went from 2000 rank into <100 just utilizing Maxim spam. But that was against Wermaht. I know how to deal with them as Wermaht it's OKW I struggle with. As I said last game I destroyed and salvaged 3 of them due to successful flanks and it didn't matter. ISG wasn't able to clear them fast enough. Maybe the very elite 50 players don't have problems with it or maybe this is because it is very unlikely to see spam of a single unit in these super pro games. I don't know. What I know however is that it takes faaaaaar less effort to beat maxim spam as OKW than it is to use it against them. For me this strat is too effective in this matchup and it gives unfair advantage to Soviet player therefore it is over performing. I get similar feelings when I play against AA halftrack. The solution is simple. Make so supports weapons can't cap territory. Maxim performance won't be affected at all so if you want to spam them - be my guest. This is the simplest, non invasive solution there is because I don't want maxim to be this crap of HMG it was at the beginning of the game around one year ago. I want MG42 to finally be able to control blobs as well. Not kill them but control. But that's completely different story. In: COH2 Balance
