Thread: OKW Panther11 Jul 2014, 04:19 AM It's really expensive and difficult to get as any faction! I'm not sure about OKW, but I recall it easily costing over 400 fuel for Ostheer. The costs I calculated were: T1 Building (10) T2 Research (45) T2 Building (15) T2 Vehicles (45) T3 Research (55) T4 Research (60) T4 Building (30) T4 Panther (175) Total Cost: 435 Fuel In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Walking Stuka11 Jul 2014, 04:08 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Jul 2014, 03:48 AMraw The IS-2 was never overkill. I guess you don't remember that time before the Armour rebalance where the IS-2 one-shotted squads just the same as the ISU. Just because it couldn't 1v1 a Tiger doesn't mean it was useless.

Thread: OKW Panther11 Jul 2014, 04:04 AM The PV's exists because they don't only fight Americans, so the lightweight Sherman isn't the only thing to worry about. The T-34/85 is the beastiest medium tank in the game, and even with the PV OKW has trouble countering it, although that's mostly because they have trouble actually getting a PV on the field. There's also the KV series and the IS-2 and ISU-152. I guess with all the cheese strategies, people forget the true might that Soviets may have access to late-game. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Walking Stuka11 Jul 2014, 02:43 AM Jump back to quoted post7 Jul 2014, 08:23 AMJadame! But Von, in 3v3+ (thread about 3v3 and 4v4 anyway) its near to impossible to push okw no-tank play due to cheap and effective at guns supported by mines, their flak building and shrecks. t34/m5s/shermans will die in frontal attack and only good at gaining some map control. And then true breakthrough tanks such as sherman dozer and kv8 will face pak 43 (which cost 0 fuel) at the time they finally arrive. I'm sorry but what tanks are you speaking of? The very expensive Panther, or the ultra expensive Tiger II? Both of which are not only the most expensive in their own respective class, but even more expensive comparatively with OKW's 2/3 resource income? OKW is designed for "no-tank play". If OKW were supposed to make heavy or even moderate use of Tanks, they would be given cheaper more generalist tanks like the Panzer IV, instead of expensive niche tanks like the Panther tank-destroyer or Tiger II heavy tank.

Thread: Infantry Blobs11 Jul 2014, 01:55 AM Well not always, but I get what you mean. I just wish the MG 42 was more reliable. Instead it's a unit you have to babysit, it's not really reliable. That was my point, you can just buy Grenadiers and have more utility on a wider scale. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Lol 7.5cm le.IG 1811 Jul 2014, 01:29 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Jul 2014, 00:19 AMLokust22 The accuracy against moving targets is incredibly frustrating. Mortars are supposed to be good for beating down a static opponent. They don't stop a charge before a bullet has been fired. ... And the vehicle damage is pretty retarded. Mortars do not have accuracy against moving targets. They fire at a single center point (usually a model in a squad) and the spread determines the accuracy. It does not compensate for movement and the projectile does not follow infantry. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Infantry Blobs11 Jul 2014, 00:09 AM I just missed the MG 42 from vCoH, you could just park it somewhere and expect it to do a decent job. A probing force will take a loss and get suppressed, then the enemy knows it's there and it's up to you to reinforce or relocate to prevent destruction. Now you're not even guarunteed to suppress the attacker when he pokes his head through and he can just walk away and come back at another angle. Of if there are 2 squads, charge in, he can't suppress both of them. You're expected to have a minimum of 480MP on site for it to work properly. At that point why not just get more Grenadiers and adapt a more mobile defense? Of course, that's what happened, and now everybody complains about Grenadier spam. In: COH2 Balance
