Thread: Reworking 'Brace'3 Jun 2020, 19:00 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Jun 2020, 13:44 PMSander93 So looks like I was wrong, and partially right. I had a look in the editor. It turns out that AOE does not share the base penetration stat but has its own AOE penetration stats. It seems that for most weapons, AOE penetration is the same as the base penetration. For the Stuka rockets however, the AOE penetration is very high which is why near misses can deal major damage to tanks (vehicles) and emplacements while direct hits only deal a small amount of deflection damage. So to correct myself: AOE does not ignore armor, but specifically the Stuka's AOE ignores the armor of the Mortar Pit and most vehicles because it has very high AOE penetration values. While direct hits only deal deflection damage because it has 0/0/0 regular penetration. I guess it's time to test how to effectively use the Stuka to kill a mortar pit. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Stuka CAS2 Jun 2020, 03:43 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Jun 2020, 00:37 AMSkysTheLimit I have no clue, didn't think knowing how to code was a prerequesite for making a suggestion? I'm not trying to say it's easy, I don't think any aspect of coding a game like this is. I just don't see why it wouldn't be possible. If the tracking already occurs secretly, is adding a visual indicator that much harder? The icon would last from the time the plane locks on to when it attacks. I assume once it attacks, the plane loses its track if the vehicle is outside the radius My instinct is that making the planes track/lose the track in the first place is the hard part and that's already done. Could be totally wrong There's brainstorming ideas and concepts and then there's implementation. Anything that is already in the game is feasible. But been feasible doesn't mean it's gonna be easy to implement nor that it would be approved. This is something new. The closest that came to my mind was the old IR HT beam and we know how that end up. In this case, you are trying to apply a dynamic "debuff" which works from the Loiter plane PoV. Can you retrieve that information from the plane and use that to locate which is the target and then make it so it gets a "mark target" icon show up for as long as the plane needs to attack it and then disappear and repeat the process? If this was feasible, that would be great. But i'm not holding any hopes on any new feature been implemented as long as it's not already done by some modder. At the end of the day, this would only be an UI thing, cause the behaviour of the Loiter would remain the same. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: SU-76 - A Slight Adjustment1 Jun 2020, 21:57 PM 1- Remove infantry crushing. 2- Increase rotation OR speed. Not both. Ideally rotation. 3- Reducing barrage cd would be fine. Would put it to 40 so it doesn't go further down than 30 with vet. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Stuka CAS1 Jun 2020, 20:37 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Jun 2020, 19:37 PMSkysTheLimit The same way it already works, just add an icon? When a tank gets locked on the game knows to have the plane attack it. If you move your tank out early enough, the second pass from the two planes won't target it, yes? So can't we have an indicator that shows this? Or at least shows what "early enough" is? If the game is already making this determination secretly, they're must be some call-out or icon they could match up with it. Would also help for if you have multiple vehicles in the radius I know the mark Target icon is independant of the plane, just giving an example of the type of visual I'm talking about. Icons like the command tank, mark Target, blitz, etc. I'm talking about how you are ACTUALLY supposed to code it. Not the general idea behind it. Without requiring "hack" type solutions to make it work. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Stuka CAS1 Jun 2020, 19:31 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Jun 2020, 18:19 PMSkysTheLimit A vehicle that gets tracked should have an icon over it until the lock expires. Similar to when your tank gets tagged with "Mark Target" you see an icon How is that supposed to work? Cause it would be a dynamic "debuff/tracking" been applied each time each of the planes is attacking something and had to be removed once the strafe is over. So it wouldn't be a fixed amount of time cause the time between tracking and attack varies greatly. The mark target icons informs you that your tanks is receiving more dmg and it's independent from the plane circling around. I'm just saying that it's not like copy pasting an already implemented feature. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Sneaky PIAT commandos1 Jun 2020, 19:18 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Jun 2020, 18:42 PMBaba im sure we once agreed in this forum that the unability to deal with blobs comes down to a l2p issue Absolutely. You punish blobs in late game with artillery. The point is that MGs effectiveness during that point of the game lose value even against single squads because they are 50% as effective as in the early game and the only way to circumvent this is with vet which is easily lost at that point. And that doesn't counter it completely. If crater light cover provided no benefit against suppression, it would have no effect on pintlemounted MGs cause the accuracy modifier would still be applying. None of this will change for this game, but it's something i will like to see address in future versions. If it was up to me, rocket artillery, mortars, tank shells and grenades shouldn't create cover. Would leave this to Howitzers, bombing strikes and so on. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Two molotovs in the same spot?1 Jun 2020, 18:48 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Jun 2020, 18:08 PMBaba i did the test 3 times one time in each of the houses in the corners (they are the same) and the last with the copy pasted houses in the middle they all turned out the same. it also matches what i usually get to see in real matches where noone aimes at "highest concentration of models" i saw, that one molo entered a window while the others smashed against the walls. in the other tests, they all hit the walls, didnt make a difference i also tested it on Osttruppen behind Cons- build sandbags, pretty much the same as with buildings dont think i did it wrong i have the footage of it should you really demand it 2 different things: 1- Iwas under the impression and might be wrong, that the explosion from molotovs did minimal dmg but followed the same rules as other grenades with drop off dmg. If that is not the case then it makes absolutely no difference against buildings. 2- If you are not aiming your grenades, you are doing it wrong. There are 2 components applying when hitting a garrison. The normal AoE of a grenade applies as if they were outside, but the far dmg applies to all models inside a garrison, disregarding how far away they are from the explosion. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Sneaky PIAT commandos1 Jun 2020, 18:36 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Jun 2020, 18:15 PMBaba its nonsense. people are looking for artificial reasons to keep this forum alive or something. yesterday they wanted to remove sandbags, today its loiters, stealth and even yellow cover craters who knows whats it gonna be tomorrow ^^ 1- Removing sandbags is stupid. Now, going for a middle point between spamming them while hugging strat points and nerfing can be achieved. 2- Loiters had always been stupid but if people just realise this now after 7 years, oh boy they are slow. 3- Light cover generated by explosions had always been a latent issue which drags the late game into blobbing and reduces MG effectiveness. I've always said that for CoH3, light cover generated by explosions should at least not provide any sort of suppression benefit. In: COH2 Balance
