Thread: Panzershrecks vs infantry, Usa's at-nades and more1 Sep 2014, 21:36 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Sep 2014, 18:46 PMOmega_Warrior The problem is that the animation takes forever and sometimes it bugs out and doesn't actually fire. This is an issue with most or all grenades it seems. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Target Weak point Bug on AT guns1 Sep 2014, 19:09 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Sep 2014, 17:42 PMelchino7 Did it ever work tracking vehicles or is it working as intended ? It did once, but then they broke it again. In: COH2 Balance

Like said, honestly the PaK40 would need a nerf to its firing rate if the stun rounds were made to work like they do on vehicles. Yeah but they'd have to make it work still. In my experience, it's extremely broken. There's zero feedback on firing, and 90% of the time nothing happens even if the vehicle isn't moving. Did my shell hit the ground? Did it shoot at all? I can't tell, because there's zero feedback, sometimes it'll take my munitions and sometimes it'll do nothing. The only time I see it work is against AI when they park their tank stationary infront of the Pak. I'll go for TWP and about 5 seconds later the Tank suddenly gets stunned. If they rework it, they could replace it with Spalling Shot, when selected the AT gun goes into a "hold fire" state, you click an area on the ground, and it'll fire accurately (not falling short or crashing into terrain) at that spot. If it hits a tank, it'll stun it. Could be a neat way to make a bug into a feature. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Panzer 4 under preforming 1 Sep 2014, 01:10 AM Jump back to quoted post31 Aug 2014, 18:58 PMgokkel Personally I find the balance between the P4, the T34/85 and the Easy-Eight a bit more interesting currently to be honest. The balance between the Panzer IV and the Easy Eight is the real red zone. If the E8 is fine, the Panzer IV is under-performing, and vice-versa. There's just too much a leap in armour, accuracy, and penetration to be just 10 fuel apart. Between the Panzer IV and T-34/76 the Panzer IV has a major AI advantage and minor AT advantage. ___ T-34/76_\| Panzer IV Max: 8.3271 \| 13.4308 10m: 7.2955 \| 12.2971 Min: 5.3594 \| 05.8090 That's without upgrades, and nevermind the gun is slightly more accurate with slightly larger lethal AOE. Add in the roof turret and the DPS is 3x higher than the T-34/76 (though still spread across 4 weapons). Regardless as I said, the problem isn't that the Panzer IV is weak (though personally I feel it lacks AT punch), the Easy Eight is hugely over-performing for it's price and making the Panzer IV look bad. Maybe slight Pen buff for the Panzer IV, but definitely a cost increase for the Easy Eight. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Abandon vehicle occurring more often? 31 Aug 2014, 18:41 PM Jump back to quoted post31 Aug 2014, 15:25 PMZombiFrancis If it were to function in a more sane manner, the abandonment that occurs as an alternative to death should result in a salvageable wreck that first has to be repaired before recrewed. This is a good idea actually. Not sure how it would work though, the easy way would be for an 'Immobilized' or 'Engine Destroyed' critical to trigger, but that would favour Americans because they can ignore criticals. Jump back to quoted post31 Aug 2014, 16:54 PMelchino7 This could be interesting. On the other hand...could we decrew tanks with flame weapons ? M3 clowncar This was actually planned early on in the game's development, but it never made it into the game. I assume it was dropped because it didn't work out favourably for gameplay.

Thread: Soviet Snipers Squad are not fun31 Aug 2014, 08:08 AM Jump back to quoted post31 Aug 2014, 06:46 AMsteel If both players went snipers then the 221/222 works very well if you're Ost. If you're OKW then I got no idea what to do. :\ Or so it would if the 221 wasn't 55 fuel away, which is a lot when your infantry get cut down right out the gate. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Thoughts on the Kubelwagen31 Aug 2014, 04:07 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Aug 2014, 15:59 PMWhySooSerious so they say Kubel > Jeep? watch a Jeep kill a squad on retreat At least the Jeep can do that, I've Kubel-chased Soviet Snipers 3/4 over the map and not even killed a model. That thing must have literally 0.5 DPS on the move. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Abandon vehicle occurring more often? 31 Aug 2014, 00:12 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Aug 2014, 19:48 PMAbdul Hardly, as the videos illustrate I was rewarded for base rushing by having my stug remain intact while my opponent lost his tank trying to destroy a stug that was abandoned for the second time in 10 seconds! The second video shows the same situation, rewarding the player that rushed right next to my base with my scout car. Abandon is a joke and I think should be removed from the game. On the contrary, I've seen failed T-34/85 or Panther rushes turn games around because one guy got way too cocky with his shiney new tank and spearheaded the enemy lines without support. The tank was abandoned behind enemy lines and turned against it's former master. My only other comment is that Panzerfaust, AT Grenades, and AT Rifle Grenades should be able to target abandoned vehicles to destroy them. Possibly also allow Engineers and Pioneers to scuttle abandoned tanks for a low or no cost. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Abandon vehicle occurring more often? 30 Aug 2014, 19:34 PM I'm fine with it, it promotes preservation and discourages blindly suicide-rushing into the enemy lines. In: COH2 Gameplay
