Thread: Own Personal Core Army29 Jul 2014, 21:54 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jul 2014, 21:49 PMBubalo In terms of core army armor, I would believe most people would pick the panther over the other medium tanks not including the tank destroyers. The Panther is a Tank Destroyer in this game though. But it also suffers from poor accuracy against tanks. In: Lobby
Thread: 75mm howitzer bug29 Jul 2014, 21:52 PM US seems to have very strange issues with recrewing weapons. 6 men MG 42 teams are not uncommon for them. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: IS-2 Frontal Armor 29 Jul 2014, 21:48 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jul 2014, 12:56 PMStrummingbird As it is now, it is statistically possible, as unlikely as it is, for an IS2 to survive 5 hours with 10 P4s hammering away at the front because deflections do nothing. Statistically possible, but feasible? No way. Besides, it's technically possible for a Pioneer squad to beat a Rifleman squad as well, but realistically? It'll likely never happen. The closest I've seen was in the Relic OKW video where a Pioneer in Green Cover destroyed a Penal Squad charging over Red Cover. I even tried to recreate it (with even more red cover), but was unable to, the Penals won with 4 men of varying health every time. Of course, it's also possible Pioneers had different stats in the OKW video that we didn't know about, but that only supports the argument that it's unlikely to ever happen and thus isn't a realistic concern.

Thread: Thoughts on Conscripts getting a 1x DP-28 upgrade29 Jul 2014, 20:19 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jul 2014, 19:37 PMVolsky Hm. Why not just overhaul Guards? Remove a PTRS from the squad, and chop the cooldown on the PTRS to ~half of what it is right now (it was a semi-automatic rifle, ridiculous levels of recoil notwithstanding, and that's how the PTRS functions in SP), and viola! That extra man who's not a weapon-dropping risk would make a big difference I think. Now this I'd like to see. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Repair Criticle is such bs29 Jul 2014, 18:34 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jul 2014, 16:43 PMnee I think it is fine- the crew must jump out to perform the repair. That leaves them not only vulnerable to fire when repair, but the vehicle and the crew is vulnerable in general. If they can manage the repair in time and drive away without sustaining further damage, good for them. That's my main problem with it, crit repair is instant. Case in point, the other day my Easy Eight got Engine Damage from a Panzerfaust. I was about 20 meters from a Pak 40, very low health, but a good position. I managed to wheel myself behind a shed, forcing the Pak to move to in attempt to hunt me down. I popped out, just as an MG 42 was passing by. He started to set up, but since set up takes 3 seconds, and Crit Repair is instant, I was able to fix my engine and get back inside because the MG was ready to fire, let alone before the Pak made it around the side of the shed. It's complete bullshit, if they're gonna have Crit Repair, make it 30 munitions with a duration of 25 seconds. It should let you back into the fight quicker, not let you escape certain death because you have a sack of magic fairy dust that instantly fixes anything. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Quick Wishlist28 Jul 2014, 22:36 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jul 2014, 18:58 PMThor - The americans need a Pershing or something for late game. Easy 8 is not enough (too weak). - Sniper commander for US please! (Camouflage for infantry 1 point, Sniper 2 points - Stick bombs against tankes 3 points - M67 grenade 3 points -Smoke launched with plane 6 points) 1. Easy Eight is the best medium tank in the game, and super cheap for what it does. 2. Fun Fact, the US Army did not teach their snipers camouflage tactics. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: T34-76/85 needs a fuel cost increase28 Jul 2014, 20:59 PM I'd agree about the Panzer IV vs T-34/85, but your T-34/76 example is horseshit. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Thoughts on Conscripts getting a 1x DP-28 upgrade28 Jul 2014, 19:46 PM Maybe, but it should be a unique DP-28 with the "Automatic Rifle" profile, so it would have better close - mid range while falling off at Long Range. Giving them a long range upgrade on a short range squad would eat into Grenadier's territory a little too much for my liking. In: COH2 Balance
