Thread: Will we get more commanders and bulletins? 13 Apr 2017, 15:46 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Apr 2017, 13:28 PMWilliam Christensen I mean, we already had Conscript + PPSHs package + Rapid Conscription so... Also, consider that you still have to wait till like 6 CP for Relief Infantry, and Osttruppen will get shreded late game by upgraded units so, it can't be that bad! The combination you mentioned cost quite a lot already (240 MU) and it took up to 2 slots out of 5. In addition, I did propose the value system to limit the strength of a commander... Maybe add in the category as well (Like this ability is for early game, that one is for late game, etc.)... It can works, I believe it can!‎ There is always gonna be a some kind FOTMYear commander combination which renders all other commanders useless or the system is useless due to been overshadowed by stock commanders. -IF you assign values to abilities, then you can just put 2/3 crap abilities and make a combination of the most BS things from other commanders. Ex: just put whatever crap on a US commander and give me CalliOP and M10s. -IF you assign them rarity (say common, rare, epic, legendary) i assure you that there are plenty of abilities/units which are hinder only because the overall commander is crap. I'm all for this to be in AI, custom or the forgotten TOW games. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Opinion on the "new" USF mortar?13 Apr 2017, 14:53 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Apr 2017, 02:14 AMGrumpy Doesn't AA stand for auto attack? Is that always the same range as attack ground? AA => Auto attack AA range = Attack ground range Barrage uses a different weapon profile Jump back to quoted post13 Apr 2017, 11:49 AMCafo It was game breaking because it was performing much better than an ost mortar... imagine if OKW had to go a certain tier for an AT gun like USF does, mechanized for example ... it would be much more awkward for them If it was just a T0 ost equal mortar it would be completely fine and not at all game breaking. NOPE. It was practically a clone to the OH mortar. The AFK offensive stats were the same. Differences: -It cost +20mp but been T0. -It had better vet1 (due to scatter reduction) -SLIGHTLY different/better barrage. Took this from and older post: "1s faster rof but more scatter".

Jump back to quoted post12 Apr 2017, 13:04 PMullumulu i ask myself everyday why in the hell are penals (strafnikis) and unexpierenced USF trainees better than german troops which fought since years on all fronts... the german soldier was a well trained and experienced soldier. sovjets didnt trained their soldiers in most cases...they get a hat, jacket, shoes and maybe a weapon Big old post TL;DR: don't make Enemy at the Gates your source of historical facts. Ontopic opinion: they are fine, we had Penal patch balance and tournaments for quite some time for people to put some input into it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Opinion on the "new" USF mortar?12 Apr 2017, 13:50 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Apr 2017, 12:43 PMGrumpy Where did you get the numbers? Also, why should the pack howie have a shorter AA and attack ground range than the ISG, which is less expensive to get and has less pop cap? http://stat.coh2.hu/ AA = Attack ground The pack howie should get a lesser AA or equal to mortars cause it has an insane barrage (vet2), great normal barrage and good AoE for rof. What the pack howie needs improvements is on the barrage deparment, not the AA. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Conscripts y u so bad12 Apr 2017, 12:08 PM QOL: Jump back to quoted post12 Apr 2017, 02:29 AMZombiFrancis Conscript merge would function a whole lot better if it reduced the squad to 1 man instead of completely removing the squad. Balance -Merge AT nades and Molotov upgrade. Idea i can get behind without much complain or foreseeing issues. This also opens up a slot in case an upgrade wants to be implemented on HQ. Now here comes some of the problems with some ideas which could be fine but would take a lot of work in order to either balance, account for doctrinal slots or with the identity of the unit or other infantry. -DPs: Pls no. -Guard Mosin upgrade: ??? -PPSH at whatever tier or locked upgrade: What do we do with commanders? -SVT Partisan (half damage at long compared to Penals) package: ??? -Reducing reinforcing cost/time upgrade: Little worried about spam, combination with commander PPSH and/or rapid conscription -Oorah at 5muni: What we all should have in mind, is not making Volks STG44 2.0 with conscripts.

Thread: Opinion on the "new" USF mortar?12 Apr 2017, 11:05 AM Jump back to quoted post12 Apr 2017, 01:48 AMGrumpy The autofire range on everything should be decreased. The pack howie would be okay if the attack ground range was equal to its barrage range, like every other indirect. I haven't verified it by looking at the files but it seems to be 60 for autofire, compared to 80 for the Ost motor and something like 100 for the mortar pit, leig, and 120. If the mortar pit's autofire range was set to ~50 (along with all the other indirect), people wouldn't complain about it so much. Most people are too lazy to manually target the mortar pit. They want a set-it-and-forget-it unit with 100 range. In game, it is sometimes hard not to go off on a UKF teammate when they are just letting the thing autofire at a moving squad (effectively doing nothing) while ignoring the mg that you need moved in order to take a point. Set it to 50 and they either learn to use it or just lose a lot. AA: it's 65 for USF mortar. 80 for all normal mortars + Pack Howie. 100 for ISG/120mm. 105 vet1 ISG. 115 for mortar pit. Barrage: 65 for USF mortar (80 on smoke on vet1). 80 for all normal mortars (which include mortar HT). 86 vet3 USF mortar. 100 for ISG/120mm. 105 vet1 ISG. 106 vet3 mortars. 115 for mortar pit. 133 vet3 120mm. 140 vet3 ISG. 160 Pack Howie. 212 vet3 Pack Howie. -OMG that range on barrage on 120mm/ISG/Pack Howie!!11! >>>120mm takes double the amount of xp to vet compared to normal mortars while also shooting at half the speed. >>>ISG barrage is mostly not used unless you are countering UKF emplacements (AOE does not guarantee to use it in this way) >>>Pack Howie only shoots 3 shells (which are great, specially at vet2) which makes it lackluster while waiting for the cooldown. Opinion: -USF mortar: do not spam it just like before. You are facing MG heavy strat or annoying garrison? Get one. USE THE FREAKING SMOKE, do not rely only on the HE barrage. -USF Pack Howie: increase amount of shells and/or decrease cooldown on barrage. That's it. Oh, if min weapon crew could be set at 2, that would be great. -OKW ISG: reduce AA range to 90, give it smoke, replace vet1 with Hollow shell mode (like changing munition with Sherman instead of it been a barrage), better AoE profile against garrison. -UKF mortar pit: reduce aa range to 100. Give smoke at vet0. Replace garrison RoF buff bonus with "Light HE barrage" unlocked at vet1. Light HE shells are the originally beta concept. Lower damage (60), higher range (130). Reduced cooldowns on barrages. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Opinion on the "new" USF mortar?10 Apr 2017, 21:04 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Apr 2017, 20:46 PMVuther I once lost to a guy that build Raketen that early. Death would be a mercy compared to living with that embarassment Pre buff penals era: i lost a 1v1 combat against a garrisoned rak. 2 shots killed 4 models, and the crew from the rak killed another model. The remaining model retreated to tell the story. Note: for some reason, rak crew is still using Volks models at 0.85 size. A garrisoned rak could defeat a non flamer RE/CE if you try to close in. Note2: since now you get fast faust, you don't really need an early rak nowadays. In: COH2 Balance
