Thread: Conscript Utility27 Feb 2019, 14:36 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2019, 13:51 PMVipper You are going personal again and semantics, I will simply not follow down that road and help you to derail another thread. The role is "mainline infatry" so all mainline infatry have the same role... No, their DESIGNATION is mainline infantry. The tools they use are what defines their role. Their roles are: Penals: all range AI specialist with AT stop gap upgrade Grens: long range AI generalist inf(support and deterrent vs vehicles through faust) Rifles: all range adaptable generalist inf(both AI and AT effective upgrade) Tommies: long range adaptable generalist inf(both AI and AT effective upgrade) Vols: all range AI generalist inf(support and deterrent vs vehicles through faust) Cons: mid to close range vet piniata and utility meme, usable with and only with ppsh doctrine You can't just throw multiple different units with different use into a single bag and call them the same.

Thread: Conscript Utility27 Feb 2019, 13:34 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2019, 13:08 PMVipper There is a difference between the role of a unit and the tools to achieve it. Penal are mainline infantry. Conscript are mainline infantry. They have the same role. ......... You've got that as wrong as its humanely possible. Mainline infantries do NOT have all the same role. The only common thing about mainline infantries across the factions is, they are most numerous unit in early game, aka backbone of the army. Every single of them has a different tools and on field application and the only common thing between them is, they are all primarily meant to fight infantry. The way they do it is the role. By your logic, grens and ass grens have the same role. Penal are one of the strongest infatry for their time frame. They simply too powerful for their time frame. Hence they are most expensive infantry for their time frame, arrive latest of all for their time frame and will always be outnumbered because of their cost. You will always outnumber penals early game, don't 1v1 them when you always can 2v1 them, especially in very early game. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Looks like SEGA will sell relic to MS without franchises27 Feb 2019, 13:27 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2019, 13:09 PMaerafield Microsoft will not be interested in an RTS game that cannot be played on Console. If there is gonna be a CoH3 it will get produced by Relic independently somehow, I believe.... if these weird rumors are true in the first place. And yet, relic makes AoE4 for them. In: Lobby

Thread: Looks like SEGA will sell relic to MS without franchises27 Feb 2019, 12:22 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2019, 11:24 AMEsxile I thought Microsoft last move was to get better connection with Steam since Windows Store "Gaming" hasn't been a success lately, or the situation has changed. No idea, however seeing how everyone pushes for their own platforms nowadays, unless I'll see something official, I'll assume they want to stick to their own thing while avoiding steam, because apparently getting 1 million customers and full revenue per player is better then getting 10 million customers and 70% revenue per player.

Thread: Conscript Utility27 Feb 2019, 12:20 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2019, 11:11 AMVipper Actually no. They need a clear role within the Soviet army. Currently the share the same role with Penal while Penal being OP, a simple buff will not actually work. First of all, cons and penals do NOT share role, because cons are not long range squad that sacrifices durability for firepower and numerical superiority for ability to fend off any other single squad 1v1 in early game. Second of all, if penals are op to you, despite the fact they arrive latest on field of all mainlines and have highest cost of all mainlines, meaning they will always be outnumbered unless opponent under produces own infantry, while having no AI weapon upgrade contrary to all other mainlines, when I'd love to know how batshit insanely op volks are to you as they have all the perks while sacrificing nothing for them. I do however agree they need a clear role, because at the moment, they have none. Cutting cost to 220 or even 210 would at least give them role similar to osttruppen and con spam would still not work, because no weapon upgrades late game. Another approach is to keep 240 cost and introduce T3/T4 upgrade that would give them literally anything, cheaper reinforcement, better durability, better accuracy, literally anything to make them relevant in any way, because no one needs a squad you don't even want to rebuild when lost. (Osttruppen don't actually work late game the LMG upgrade is an average solution at best) Average solution is better then no solution at all, wouldn't you agree? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Looks like SEGA will sell relic to MS without franchises27 Feb 2019, 09:34 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Feb 2019, 03:26 AMMittens If Im not mistaken don't Relic own CoH as a brand? CoH and DoW. They can do whatever they want with it. If they change publisher, older titles may remain under old publisher as SEGA clearly doesn't own CoH1, DoW2 or Space Marine. Now, assuming microsoft really gets Relic, it'll mean whatever they release next, will require windows 10, windows store and will be off steam. In: Lobby
Thread: Revamping the revamped Firestorm doctrine 26 Feb 2019, 23:51 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Feb 2019, 23:47 PMaddvaluejack I hope relic could put Hetzer in Mech HQ as an alternative of Luchs. Hetzer is still countered by T70/AEC/Stuart, so I don't think this change will cause any balance problem. For it to arrive this early, it would have to be hit hard by durability nerf, from current 640 to even lower when it was when it was introduced as at that tier, its 400hp, no more then 70 armor party. And it wouldn't be alternative to Luchs, it would be so superior that its not even funny. Its locked where its locked, because it performs well and cost effectively now after its buffs. Its not popular more, because doctrine is completely overshadowed by JLI. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Nerf the DAMN SECTOR ASSAULT26 Feb 2019, 08:49 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Feb 2019, 08:17 AMullumulu while can be push back by any infantry with a scissor....because it has armor out of paper. Try this with a bofors....which can deal with armys And that makes is less of a cheap affordable AA how exactly? You don't really need to put any unit directly on the front line, under opponents fire for it to fight planes. In fact, I'm going to blow your mind here and say it will not fight planes in this case, because it'll be busy shooting ground force. In: COH2 Balance

If you only lasted 4 more words and noticed the "cheap" part. 222 AA performance is not to be ignored and it has both, decent AT and AI for its tier and price. In: COH2 Balance
