Thread: (i win) button3 May 2014, 01:52 AM Button has always been a BS ability since the first game and giving sticky bombs to both faction's core infantry is something I feel was a mistake. OTOH vehicles in general are more common and infantry heavy armies are much less viable mid/late game. None of these things can be fixed with a simple balance patch, the game is, at its core, worse than the first one. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: ISU-1523 May 2014, 01:16 AM Bong, historically a 152mm HE shell would very likely instakill a Panther regardless of where it struck and Soviet tanks in fact had some of the best optics in the world. 105mm artillery was sometimes used by Western forces lacking proper heavy AT solutions and direct hits on Panthers and Tigers would usually be GG instantly. Luckily CoH2 isn't trying to be historically accurate. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Cover seeking aka repeating DoW2 all over again2 May 2014, 13:32 PM Jump back to quoted post1 May 2014, 18:06 PMKatitof Can't remember over the memory of ever present infantry blobs. Yes, it was like this in CoH1. The dickheads would run out of cover at the most inopportune moments instead of firing at the enemies coming straight at them. One guy would take cover in front of where you wanted him to instead of behind and get mowed down quicksmart. A tiny explosion would go off and everybody would scramble around. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: ISU-1522 May 2014, 09:26 AM If I was in charge of balance I would just eliminate both units from the game entirely. But hey. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: why not disabling loading screen rank simply does not work29 Apr 2014, 23:03 PM I love how you have these custommizable face plates but nobody you play with can see them unless they go out of their way to look you up. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Multplayer numbers and will they keep us alive?29 Apr 2014, 12:53 PM People comp stomp because they enjoy it. Not everybody is in it for the competitive gameplay. There are a number of people who exclusively play CoD every year for the campaigns. And let's not forget that some people do both. It's just a different style of gameplay. In: Lobby
Thread: Last Patch28 Apr 2014, 13:50 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Apr 2014, 09:27 AMBabaRoga Have you tried moving your MG42 when you see you are getting into situation where you will be Oorah'd or molotoved? It works great for me, I see people try to kill crawling con squad with MG42 and complain about Molotov. Yes but my attention is often split between multiple engagements and in a 2v2 early/mid game you will be dealing with a metric ton of units. I agree it does work and I make good use of it from time to time, but shit happens. I might just be crazy but I feel like mgs don't suppress large blobs like they used to in the first game.

Thread: ISU-15228 Apr 2014, 13:42 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Apr 2014, 13:26 PMBurts Keep in mind that ISU-152 costs 720 manpower, so unless it wipes 3 squads it stills hasn't payed for its cost, also 260 fuel. Yes but it being in the field acts as a significant deterrent to other squads and vehicles on the map, while the act of destroying even 1 or 2 squads can allow other Soviet units on the field to do their jobs more effectively. Obviously it's hard to calculate any exact metrics, but it doesn't literally have to kill its own manpower and fuel costs to be a fantastic and potentially game-winning unit. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Artillery28 Apr 2014, 13:05 PM No thanks. Big guns in your base don't deserve to be made any more powerful than they already are. Stukka and IL2 bombing run should retain the ability to obliterate fixed artillery. In: COH2 Balance
