Thread: STG Obersoldaten23 Sep 2019, 19:10 PM It would be nice when people brought out test references, they would actually mention the complete analysis made out of it and different concerns mentioned when it's been done. It's like media taking scientific papers out of context and only mentioning what's relevant to make clickbait articles. 1v1 lab test don't reflect 1v1 ingame scenarios because objective on either cases is completely different. NO ONE in live game keeps a unit to fight till either unit dies and the game is not played in 1vs1 unit engagements. So why do any test at all? So you can actually know what you can expect from each unit. It's pretty simple why they are less popular than the LMG34 for the same reason PGs have always been less popular (outside of shcreck) for noobs. The unit let's you decide how you want to engage in any scenario, instead of the only reasonable decision been A+move/staying in cover. It's like Falls prior to the latest overbuff, which were more glass DPS cause of having no concentrated damage in fewer models. In: COH2 Balance

Indeed. Jump back to quoted post20 Sep 2019, 22:01 PMVipper One should probably set incremental accuracy to 0 and see how it goes. This would be good to test how much incremental accuracy affects suppression against single targets but it does't explain how suppression to blobs/multiple targets actually works. In: Lobby
Thread: allow 7 man Conscripts PPSH41 or PTRS22 Sep 2019, 22:22 PM Big no to OP. Jump back to quoted post22 Sep 2019, 19:28 PMLoopDloop Plz no. I wish PTRS conscripts could still throw molotovs though. No reason they shouldn't be able to; pfusies, pgrens, and recon support paras can all still throw nades when given their AT upgrades, and they have real grenades. Not sure why this is a thing. "As having more than 9 decks, having too many buttons would confuse people". What's the button for AT nade assault and molotov ? In: COH2 Balance

It would be nice to play a map other than redball and port at least 1/15 games. Every time this is asked, vetos are hard coded to be added automatically based on number of maps on rotations.

Thread: Inconsistencies20 Sep 2019, 18:45 PM I guess you only read titles on newsletters and not the context of the news. If you want i can put "ability to suppress". In: Lobby
Thread: Inconsistencies20 Sep 2019, 18:08 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Sep 2019, 16:55 PMVipper That is inaccurate, Ober's ability has a CD of around 70 second after the ability is out. Reading comprehension. I was purposely not referring to the vet 5 ability, but their CAPABILITY to add suppression to units through either their Kar98s and IR STG upgrade. Which is why i don't think that their suppression abilities are comparable at all, cause the context of both units is completely different. One is a vet ability which further improves their passive capabilities and the other one is a cost muni based ability only obtained as part of the 1919 upgrade. In: Lobby
Thread: Suppression mechanic: How does it REALLY works ?20 Sep 2019, 18:05 PM Making a summary: Suppression is supposed to apply to the squad you are aiming, and AoE suppression (which should apply on hits) is what matters for suppressing other squads around the one you are aiming. What is happening. 1- Accuracy matters regardless of individual or multiple squads. This is seen by vanilla tests (units with better RA taking longer to suppress) or by modded cases (testing MGs with 200% and 1% accuracy). 2- Squad size matters as well. Suppression against 4 model is inferior than 6. 3- Multiple squads with few models =/= single squad with same amount of models in total. This means that you can't suppress equally a blob of 6 squads with 1 model vs 1 squad with 6 models. 4- If hits is only what matters to apply AoE suppression, then at 100% accuracy, it should be applying it constantly which is not happening on test. From point 4 and further tests, it doesn't seem to be the case which really confuses me. MG42 (1% acc) shouldn't be suppressing at all the squad behind cover as it's not hitting it at all. In: Lobby
Thread: Suppression mechanic: How does it REALLY works ?20 Sep 2019, 17:50 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Sep 2019, 21:42 PMLoopDloop Very interesting stuff, thanks for sharing. Do we at all know why this happens? Seems like a weird phenomenon. Like what mechanic is it that makes suppression affect larger squads to a higher degree (if that's a correct statement)? Incremental accuracy, which at first, should only matter if you were trying to suppress multiple squads. The thing is, there is something else which matters as well. New set of tests: Test 1: Testing the same MG34/MG42 against 1 model on the open. Results are the same as before with complete squads. Test 2: 6 x squads of 1 model Cons behind a sandbag at range 20 against MG34. It takes ages (16 bursts). Test 3: Now this is the interesting part. 6 x squads of 1 model behind sandbag at the left (A). JUST RIGHT OF IT, a 6 model Con squad on NO COVER (B). 1 model Conscript squad right of the 6 model squad in NO COVER (C). 1 x squad of 6 model behind cover (D). T 3.1: If i aim at the right most model of (A), the 6 man conscript squad will not be suppressed. EVEN if all the bullets are hitting the unit (2.00 acc (MG34) x 0.5 (cover)), which should be what matters for suppression AOE. I tested both, perfectly aligned (by cancelling a sandbag construction) and spread formation. T 3.2: Same situation but now i aim at (C) which is farther aside from (B), compared to (A). 1st burst suppress on (C), 2nd burst pin (as before) and at this point it also suppresses (B) as it should. T 3.3: 1 squad of 6 models behind sandbag (D) and (B). Aiming at (D) doesn't seems to change the result (i suppress in 5 bursts) but (B) doesn't get suppress after 2 mags (12 bursts) IMPORTART PART: Aiming at the squad OUT OF COVER, suppresses the squad behind cover in 2 bursts (normal 5). Test 4: MG42 (1% accuracy) aiming at (B) -no cover-, suppresses in 1 burst (D) -cover unit- as well. This is something which doesn't align with what we know of suppression at all. In: Lobby
