Thread: CoH2's big gameplay issues21 Jun 2020, 18:57 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Jun 2020, 17:35 PMHannibal This is a topic Ihave been thinking about for a while now. Katitof and Vipper still get into fights regularly, this hasn't changed. +1 The next big topic imo will be a big commander revamp. Several doctrines need a rework, so they are not as opressive and allow for other doctrines to shine. Jäger armor, isu doctrines and prob some other as well. Other commmanders could need improvments. Making the command p4 somewhat viable would be cool. Grens are still in a weired late game space without 5 man upgrade. But overall, the game is in the most balanced state since launch. In: Lobby
Thread: Soundbug15 Jun 2020, 17:16 PM Since i started playing brits, i encounter every 2 games a weired sound bug. -> After some ingame time i cant hear my squads anymore; sometimes their voices are toned down, so i can barely hear them, sometimes they dont speak at all. It is quit irretatiing, since i have to double check, wether i selected a certain unit. Every other sound doesnt has problems e.g. enemys, allies, Gunshots, abilites. Happens only when i play brits. This bug cant be heard on replays. Wonder wether anyone else has the same problem In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Mod Release, Design and Live Fixes and Issues14 Jun 2020, 16:44 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Jun 2020, 15:59 PMAngrade (Ægion) You just proved multiple of my points. Team games are focused 1v1s in general. Only in 4v4s where this is not true. My experience is largely 3v3s with entirely randoms. Killing a sniper with a mine is just luck. Most counter sniper play is build a sniper and wait. Nothing fun about it and very repeative. When is the last time you seen a kubel run down a sniper. Again, the M20 is LT tech, denying captian entirely. Playing passive is horrible advice against snipers, you have to be aggressive vs snipers or else it will bleed you dry. Sure, running into MGs is best way of killing snipers. Playing passive means picking the right engagements; Falling back and not giving many options for sniping, while preparing a counter . Espepecially in larger team games snipers are less of a "problem" to deal with. In higher matchup (rank 300 upwards), even randoms can communicate and deal with problems together. Calling teamgames focused 1 on 1 indicates, that your skill on this level seems not to be very high. Focusing down enemy lines with teammates is way more reliable. Btw. i hunt snipers with kubels, since they deal quit an amount of damage. Waiting wiith your sniepr is the fun part, since you hbave to sneak him into a forward postion. Good players tend to keep themway behind own lines, therefor you have to outsmart him. A light jäger squad would be nothing more than grens jli a.s.o and would rly remove one layer of the game thanks to a l2p issue without granting extra content to the game. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Mod Release, Design and Live Fixes and Issues14 Jun 2020, 15:41 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Jun 2020, 15:12 PMAngrade (Ægion) One man snipers cause so many issues. Sniper vs Sniper plays are not fun for one. Sniper counter should not be other snipers. Not all factions have access to snipers. Snipers promotes the over reliant usages of light vehicles to rush them down. Forcing entire tech paths, not just units. Snipers a lot times rely on luck to kill if they went down the other tech path, ie morter. Snipers generally promote blobbing to rush them down. Light vehicles are the reason why teller one shot light vehicles since Ostheer has no good hard counter. Soviets: If they went t2, they are SOL until they get a T70 and denys the appearance of SU 76. Or, forced to build t1 and cause an endless cycle counter snipers with snipers. Ostheer Endless cycle of snipers. Severely punish players trying to skip t1, who generally trying having more fun playing differently. Or, forces out a 222 and hope that 1-2 tellers can kill the responses. Entire tech path and units predetermined for both players because one person built a sniper. USF, pretty much deny's captain tech and forces out LT. OKW, forces out T2 Mechanized hq and deny MEDICS. UKF, endless cycle of Snipers once again, or hope the AEC can get a lucky hit on the sniper. A lot of your "problems" are solely relevant in 1v1, if you wanna call them that. IN team games you have a teammate who can help. Mostly dealing with snipers is a l2p issue. Playing more passive, back teching etc. infiltraion, mines, counter snipe, lv´s. There area lot of things you can do. And comming with a price tag of 360mp = 1 1/2 squads a huge investment that can be killed very fast. NOt to mention way less map control early on. Counter sniper play is fun, since you have to actually use your brain. OKW and USF can run snipers down with very good mainline inf. And m20 and even kübel are counters to it. Imo only players of lower skill level think that snipes are bad for the game. Lastly, if they were to strong, one would have seen them in the tourneys way more often. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Comet12 Jun 2020, 20:25 PM I started playing brits. The comet feels like what the tiger somewhat should be. It wipes infantry left and right, has overhelming speed and decent at capability and armor. I dont know the numbers but this tank feels to be the most versitale tank in the game atm. Even though he is a stock unit. Opinions? In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Tiger nerf9 Jun 2020, 14:43 PM Tiger went from an instant pick to almost non existing; 5 man grens are meta right now, even though Luv/DevM used Blitzkrieg doc once or twice. Brumbär and Pwerfer are filling the Ai gap now. Other ways of late game anti infantry power, beside 5 man grens,are non existing. This meta feels fresh, even though grens/infantry late game survivability are still OST´s biggest construction side. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Making OKW Battlegroup viable8 Jun 2020, 16:30 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Jun 2020, 14:16 PMGeblobt Maybe taking some power lvl from mechanized could help Battlegroup Headquarters. You could move stuka from mech HQ to Schwerer Panzer HQ. Instead of stuka mech HQ now has the Mortar HT from Ostheer. And additionally you could move Obers from Schwerer HQ to Command HQ. They get unlocked after 1 tech structure was built (like mg34, lmg still requires panzer authorization). Now you can skip mech and still get rocket arty. On the other hand you still need it for the puma. Obers have a better timing (should be around 2/3cp like other elite inf). I like this idea; maybe combined with the luchs and flak ht trade.
