Thread: StugE needs a slight tone down30 May 2014, 05:45 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2014, 04:24 AMilGetUSomDay I think for the cheapness the Stug E needs a slight tone down (not the previous useless ness). With the new explosives the Stug E just racks up kills easily and is rather accurate. I do not know of the explosives will be really looked at in the next patch, if so then that should do. But if not I think that a slight accuracy adjustment should be fine. works just fine compared to the other AI tanks. no change is currently needed In: COH2 Balance

Not a hard achievement if their are only 3 shcoktroopers in the game is it? and now assault grens have sprint they are even better then shocktroopers In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Lets talk Pgrens.30 May 2014, 03:31 AM AS i said before increasing their FOTM back to 100% will make them excellent flankers. even if you increase their armor or decrease cost they will still be forced into cover alongside the grenadiers which makes them horribly inefficient. and a single pio squad can be used just as well for cc defence.

Thread: Minor german issues. 28 May 2014, 09:41 AM thats the problem here. u are using it like a front line slugger. that is not proper usage, its a tank, you expose it to the least amount of enemy fire and try to do as much damage as you can, by flanking and using shot blockers. you run away when soviets are supporting their tank better than you, not sit there and take shots just because its a panther. It has no proper usage. it takes elements from other TD's and you get a patched together mess that doesnt know what kind of TD it wants to be. 1v1 is the scenario where it justifies the panther's unit cost(NOT TECHING COST), the panther reigns supreme, no other tank bar the is2 can brawl with it. how many t34 or shermans are you want it to face off? not even a single tiger has a chance with a swarm of t34. the fact that it so badly loses to the is-2 is simply reason enough not to buy it. the second heaviest td struggling against a heavy generalist tank is a joke. take for comparison the panther vs pershing matchup which was in blatant favour for the panther. dealing with twice its cost is a matter of usage. a sniper is a specialist unit, can it deal with 3 gren squads? the sniper has no chance if 3 gren squads were to bum rush it. but a sniper at range and with a screening force can put the pain on as many gren squads as you can throw at them. retarded logic. what you are asking for is a OPed tank, seen back in the past versions of the game. stupidly quick with blitzkrieg, stupidly tanky due to soviet pathetic gun penetration and its huge hp pool and with a escape mechanism. you have played with it too long and are far too comfortable with it. its time to adapt towards a more balanced game. If you havent noticed nearly all soviet medium armor got its penetration buffed . but the greatest problem is that many soviet player refused to use the su85 then complain about. stats wise, the panther is fine. its tough, its tanky LOL BUT its prohibitively expensive. not the unit cost, but the teching cost. its much cheaper to wait for cps for a tiger tank than tech to t4 and buy a panther. thats not the fault of soviets tanks getting buffs, those buffs were long overdue. fine i will stick to the cost effective tiger. the panther is not fine stat wise. no is going to argue that the previous panther combined with bliz(which got completely nerfed btw} was op. But now it needs a significant dps increase to remain cost effective. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Minor german issues. 28 May 2014, 00:25 AM Jump back to quoted post27 May 2014, 21:57 PMKatitof Sure it does, why do you believe it should be able to walk over multiple tanks at once? Do you expect lone SU-85 to kill a pair of P4s when they will keep advancing as well? Panther is still quite amazing AT tank, its just not a stand alone behemoth that can shrug off 4 T34s shots and kill them all on a slugfest. Your first mistake is compare to the panther to the su85. its retarded logic so dont do that again as both units are fundamentally different . can a su-85 handle 2 p4's when properly used? yes. its impossible for the p4 to win from the su85 from the front that's why skill and a good army composition is a great factor to prevent any tank from flanking the su85 and force them into the su85 firing arch. i dont deal in 1 vs 1 scenario's because that is retarded. Now the panther is a front line slugger. and as slugger is the most inefficient unit in the game it only has 800 hp better armor but very poor dps allowing soviet generalist tanks to cost effectively engage it. for the record the shermans and t-34-85 rof is significantly higher and they have the penetration to knock the tank destroyer out. and i dont consider specialist tanks worth if they cannot deal with at least twice the amount of fuel and mp in generalist tanks. increasing its ROF 4.5 seconds will fix most of its problems In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Current balance for both faction27 May 2014, 21:01 PM Jump back to quoted post27 May 2014, 11:13 AMBurts 1v1 snipers are fine. Keep in mind that even non upgraded grens can do decent damage to soviet snipers at range. G43 countering snipers might be over, but now use LMG 42 instead. If he gets more than one sniper in 1v1, you can just make lots of grens and just simply walk forward, yes you might have to retreat 1-2 squads. But in the end you will force the snipers away. Keep in mind that a gren squad almost does 2x more damage than a cons squad at range, when you factor the extra damage, the soviet sniper doens't really have any survivability advantage at all. are high or something? the previous g43 had 40 range and 85% FOTM in fact a lmg squad has even less chance of catching a sniper team then a regular gren squad.

Thread: Minor german issues. 27 May 2014, 20:57 PM Jump back to quoted post27 May 2014, 19:28 PMPuppetmaster To all the people saying the Panther is a terrible unit, its because you are still trying to use it as it was before, where you could charge into danger and blitz out without much risk. Stop thinking you can do that and actually learn how to reuse the panther. its durability combined with speed was a very major issue in the previous patch where it was near invincible with vet 1. but at the same time it needed durability in order tot and the damage while it slowly destroyed its enemy. it not only took a hit in that direction but the soviet medium armor some substantial buffs. its no longer able to cost effectively stand up to t-34' s or shermans. altering the tactics will not change that as 2 stugs simply perform better.

Who gives a fuck! the panther loses to soviet medium generalist armor . I expect a dedicated tank destroyer to wipe the floor with t-34's or shermans In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Minor german issues. 27 May 2014, 17:11 PM Jump back to quoted post27 May 2014, 16:01 PMBurts Welcome to the world of soviet armor. However i do agree that panther needs a SLIGHT cost decrease. I dont think you understand the panther has 240 penetration and has the range of a stug. The only thing that outranges the panther is SU-85s and ISU-152. Everything else the panther can outrange. To compare, su-85 has only 190 penetration! Also, its the almost the fastest vehicle in the game. It has the same speed of an t-34/85 and the t-34/76 slightly beats it in terms of speed. Also, i like the fact that stugs have anti infantry capability this patch. Its one of those things that make them viable now even in a 1v1. Stugs shouldn't be an su-85 copy with shorter range. And the lowest dps of any tank hunter/ generalist tank. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Minor german issues. 27 May 2014, 14:31 PM Jump back to quoted post27 May 2014, 13:19 PMcoh2player I actually like the new stug because of its 80 fuel cost and effectiveness against infantry. I support them with paks. But the Ostwind and P4 aren't really worth it, like the Panther and Werfer. P4 is only in the same class of the T-34/76. So T4 is redundant except the Brummbar. So my whole roster is tiger tank commanders. Frankly I don't mind the current balance; I wish it was like this a year ago. But thats not good balance mate as the tier 3 and 4 should be able to stand on their own feet and dont need tigers to fill the gap they leave. In: COH2 Balance
