Thread: Soviet T3 need cost increase or Ost T3 cost reduction!20 Jul 2015, 08:34 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2015, 08:26 AMIron Emperor But you can't make something extremely cheaper then other techs. It's fair to let your opponents to get some counters against it. It doesn't have to completely obliterate it, but like I told you multiple times. By the time the first stuff rolls out it's 7 minutes. (Early game is not about light verhicles but about infantry gameplay) OKW have pumas and stealth puppchens. Ost have 222s and PaKs. Additionally you can use Ost doctrinal pumas. Also before someone rushes in with "but it delays medium armor", well, T3 light vehicles doesn't exactly speed up the T4 either, getting more then single one means you'll be fighting med tanks with SU-76 at best. There comes also munition management(sorry, you can't spam LMGs to your hearts content with impunity anymore). All of these keep light armor at bay. Counters arrive before the light armor. The "problem" is, many people thing ost T3=sov T3 and think "counters" to light armor should be medium armor arriving at the same time. Do I need to remind that it was the exact reason why light armor play completely extinct? Sure, T-70 or quad will obliterate you and force you off the field, but only if you won't anticipate it and prepare for it at all. Now, check old replays and see what allies did against fast luchs, then do the same against T70 and stuarts. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Viability of Luftwaffe Supply in 1v1?20 Jul 2015, 08:22 AM I believe you're missing the point here. Its STILL effective in combat as you're getting potent buff. Its HEALING doesn't work in combat, because it was broken OP. Buff works in combat, therefore you can use it during combat, just apply it BEFORE combat to not lose cover advantage as it lasts long. I don't know how can I explain it in any simpler way. Need a singing telegram to get it? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Soviet T3 need cost increase or Ost T3 cost reduction!20 Jul 2015, 08:02 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2015, 07:53 AMatouba When one faction must choose one unit to counter another, but the other faction can choose freely. It's a balance issue now. You mean... like rifles vs MG42? Like the need for soviet elite infantry because stock ones can't do shit vs LMG grens? Like T34 and sherman that always needed ATG while P4 can YOLO allied meds? Like B4 vs supported ele? I could go like this for a whole day... Its nothing new. Its why soviets are having tech change in the first place-they always MUST chose one unit to counter another while ost could pick their units freely. In: COH2 Balance

And who makes you use the crates DURING the engagement? The buff last quite long, you can easily pick it before you go in engagement. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Soviet T3 need cost increase or Ost T3 cost reduction!20 Jul 2015, 07:35 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2015, 07:30 AMIron Emperor Currently SU-76's with it's penetration is surely no light tank (in my opinion), since it just beats down everything from range. It's no problem that it was buffed, but I think they overdone it, while the Stug-III is now just an ordinary tank destroyer, with simular stats as other TD's. Now Soviets have next to their ZiS and SU-85 also SU-76 (with Barrage) as 1 unit with barrages is not enough they just gave it 2 units to obliterate your AT and MG's. To play defensive mostly of the time you have to make a static frontline. Well, SU-76 also doesn't cost like light armor. Its just 5 fuel short from medium tank destroyer M10. It already have lower damage, hp and armor to warrant it light TD status and light TD is still TD. On top of that, SU-76 barrage is highly inaccurate and have much longer cooldown then ZiS-3 barrage, its nice addition that always was there, but it was never something you could rely on, especially since if first shot won't wipe you, you can simply re position few meters to the side and be perfectly safe. Also it amazes me that axis only players believe sov T3=ost T3. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet T3 need cost increase or Ost T3 cost reduction!20 Jul 2015, 07:24 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2015, 23:15 PMsomenbjorn I don't get why you need Ostheer T-3 with a P-IV or a Stug to counter the M5. I honestly don't. Two shots with a Pak and the enemy looses 120 muni. And what about mines? Because ost players are stuck with some weird mentality that soviet T3=ost T3 and don't want or can not acknowledge that soviet one brings light armor, not medium one. Pretty much the same case with all the "ost T4 too expensive in comparison to sov T4" whiners. And as it was said and tested, 2x222 will deal with quad and PaK will deal with T70 like it always did, all you have to do now is get it 2 minutes faster. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: EZ8 should have 800hp20 Jul 2015, 07:20 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2015, 06:53 AMJorad Sadly this forum has turned into a Buff Axis Yay, Buff Allies- nay. Was it ever any different? Anyway, EZ8 is fine as it is. It got advantage over 34/85 when fighting meds and only firepower advantage when fighting heavies. In: COH2 Balance

I don't think people like the visual effect of "1" Man doing all that work. But you know what, its micro. It won't be "micro" when brits come out, it'll be "imbalance of a level of first month MG42 and infantry crush T-70". In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: DLC Business Ethics - Making a Stock Unit Premium 19 Jul 2015, 22:40 PM You've got non doctrinal P4, there, this is your store credit. Now stop acting like self entitled douche. Ungrateful players who always want more for free, even though you're getting updates that make your life easier are bane of each and every game developer and designer. And believe me, I'm speaking as one who have learned the "hard way" that players demands for more for free and demands to be compensated for mandatory changes that make their game BETTER are infinite.
