Thread: OKW Puma22 Aug 2014, 18:36 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Aug 2014, 18:30 PMwooof people are way too quick to write off the american AT gun. its amazing with vet. 70 range, forward sight and AP rounds are amazing. AP rounds and vet 3 give a total bonus of 95% to its pen. thats 224-273 pen depending on range. compare that to a vet 3 pak, which has 247-273 pen. and such units vet up quickly In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxims vs the OKW 22 Aug 2014, 13:40 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Aug 2014, 12:43 PMKatitof If snipers and infantry spawning on the back of them are not counters for you, then you do have a problem. Big one. What is a counter for you? 2 clicks and squad wiped frontally? Because it seems like that is exactly what you want, seeing how you disregard all hard counters as no counters. Let me tell you this: denial about hard counters doesn't make them any less of a hard counter. Bugalov already explained the difference between hard and soft counters. and 2 clicks to wipe a squad is the hallmark of a hardcounters.hardcounters for the maxim are long range dps or AI vehicles. for the okw that means obers and luchs. for the ost it means grens spam with lmgs and 222. These are not available from the start and it does cause some problems early game as the maxim is perfectly able to absorb grenades because it has extra man. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxims vs the OKW 22 Aug 2014, 12:19 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Aug 2014, 11:56 AMKatitof Because axis have other effective counters for it? Mortars, snipers, infantry guns, elite infantry spawning on the backs? Those are not the counters to maxims. they are useful in supporting the actual counters but they cannot counter maxims by themselves. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW Puma22 Aug 2014, 07:48 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Aug 2014, 07:36 AMwongtp you are right, if soviet/us gets 25fuel/min, the okw equivalent is 25 * 0.66 = 16.5. okw will then need 4.24mins to save 70 fuel. the equivalent for soviet fuel rate in 4.24mins = approx 106 fuel. my apologies. still im not ashamed because my point still stands, we are talking about a massive 225 - 105 = 120 fuel difference, care to refute that instead? Here is the issue. you are teching up all the way to tier 3 to get a t-34 out which the puma is supposed to counter. its like saying that a ostheer player is getting a panther out to counter an at gun. also i dont believe for a moment anybody will ever lose a supported at gun to a puma.

Thread: Volks are garbage - Run an experiment vs Cons22 Aug 2014, 07:41 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Aug 2014, 07:00 AMWarthrone Dude this makes no sense. Im saying run the experiment. It makes no difference if its 3 volk squads vs 3 con squads the outocme is the same if you use oorah and close in to negate the cover of volks and is even worse when you throw molo. at least grens have Rifle nades and LMG upgrade to someone punish this. Volks have nothing. Then get obers. this faction plays a bit similar to the IG of DOW2 : guardsmen in the front stormtroopers in the back was a common tactic. same goes for the okw get those volks in front of the obers.

Thread: OKW Puma22 Aug 2014, 05:32 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Aug 2014, 03:11 AMwooof well considering its timing and cost, it should function like a beefed up 222. also, why would a medium tank be its hardest counter? the puma is actually meant to be a counter to medium tanks in my opinion. its penetration makes it way overkill for light vehicles. i think the puma does need a nerf, but these arent the reasons why. Then whats your opinion about the us flak track? I think people complain a bit to much about its ai abilities but to be honest the ai abilities of the puma are not worth mentioning to anyone who uses some form of AT. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW Puma21 Aug 2014, 20:03 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Aug 2014, 14:50 PMKatitof How about puma overperforming for the cost relatively to other units and medium tanks coupled with super early arrival, which allows it to get vet before armor capable to fight it arrives? Is that good enough reason? Soviets also have M5 for clown car duties but that didn't stopped anyone from nerfing M3 multiple times. For cost its fine. its a tank destroyer its their to destroy tanks. or do you want to nerf the wolferine as well then? same value and even more AT. and how the fudge do you even vet a puma from infantry kills? i have trouble vetting my luchs and a puma is 10 times more difficult to vet from infantry. if the puma parks himself in front of a squad in the open it indeed has around the dps of 2 grens firing at a squad.

Thread: Jaeger Light Infantry21 Aug 2014, 12:50 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Aug 2014, 12:46 PMsteel I've seen and used JLI to chase off PPSH conscripts while conscripts chase off FSJ. FSJ are no big deal to me. Micro is still a valid argument imo. If it's not then we make it sound like COH2 is an A-move game right? the rng god was in favour for you then when you attacked that fsj squad. technically they have around the same dps with at cc but the fsj has much better medium and long range damage then the JLI. not to mention that the FSJ has some very potent cc grenades.

Thread: Jaeger Light Infantry21 Aug 2014, 12:40 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Aug 2014, 09:58 AMsteel You still need to micro shcoks though since they need to close in. While JLI can just stay in mid-long range and still kill efficiently. Micro is not an argument as this is not SC2. It surprises me however that you target the JLI and not the FSJ who perform even better. In: COH2 Balance
