Thread: What to do with the KT?28 Mar 2018, 20:08 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 19:58 PMVipper Su-85 can deal with PzIV just fine so can Su-76. ITs still less effective against it then it used to be - that is his whole point. M36 kill PzIV faster since it over-killed Lone M36 sure, M36 with any kind of support takes longer - 1 AT nade meant P4 will go down in 3 shots, now it still takes 4. FF can still kill with 2 shots 2 tullips. It was not able to do it without tulips before due to shooting once every full moon, it got a buff which it badly needed as it was worst TD in the whole game with lowest DPS by far and still is - muni heavy tulips is pretty much the only thing that made it viable pre buff and as long as you move, you're perfectly safe from tulips.

Thread: How would you change coh 2?28 Mar 2018, 18:42 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 18:18 PMLUCKBAR first of all: remove the auto-firing, laser guided mortars and their wipe potential! of course for all factions. The only mortar in game that is still an issue is ost sniper turbo mortar. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: No Point to Schwerer Flak anymore?28 Mar 2018, 16:12 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 16:05 PMRappy Time to learn how to read. No one in this thread said schwerer should be on the front line. This thread was about it being destroyed even if it's back at a passive cutoff. And that is an issue how? You place it outside of base, you need to deal with the risk of losing it, if you have put it on your own cutoffs and still lose it, you most likely are beaten to the point of no come back. If you are too afraid of the risk, then give up its free cannon benefit and just place it at the back of your base sector, where it'll be perfectly safe from anything. Only singular thing it can't endure is sustained attack and if you are unable to repel sustained attack, you lost the game prior to that event. Also again, despite it being most durable forward structure, what exactly makes you believe it should never go down? It takes effort and time to raze it, if you completely neglect repairs and play passively hiding behind it, you fully deserve to lose it, if you're repairing it and taking counter measures, its not going to go down before 40th minute.

Thread: Simple Soviet sniper tweak idea28 Mar 2018, 16:07 PM Because mortars deal 80 damage, not 40 and one shell hitting 2 models at worst case equals to 160 damage. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Performance and cost efficiency of massed SU76s vs SU8528 Mar 2018, 16:06 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 14:43 PMzarok47 So su-76 doesnt need to hardcounter p4 (apart from the above, it is super bad design to have such a cheap unit nullify axis midgame). Well, we all know how popular the unit was when it couldn't stand up to weakest med armor. It was a meme unit before. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: What to do with the KT?28 Mar 2018, 14:45 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 14:17 PMVipper Imo the problem is not what to do with KT but what to do with Allied AT. Imo using KT as benchmark to balance allied TDs creates far more problems than it solves. If one want to balanced "super heavy tanks" one can try the approach of separate balance by increasing target size to x2 or x3 of that of medium and giving MU with high penetration low accuracy to specific TDs. That creates a whole new problem of having to create 3 specialist units to create a single tank of a single faction, unless you want to throw regular tier and panther into that bag as well, in which case brits and USF would be left without stock mechanized answer to meds. Modders went with "lesser evil" way of high penetration, but lower DPS, which does give meds a fighting chance(which still should not be too big as TDs are still supposed to counter tanks and not only heavy ones).

Thread: What to do with the KT?28 Mar 2018, 12:37 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 12:28 PMVipper In the current situation I personally would rather have an Ostheer Panther with 215 armor (same as easy8) that costed 140 fuel. Well, that is one way to do it. I used to advocate for T34/57 instead of 85 back in the day, which would pretty much be just that. Both ideas are not really possible. Imo relic focused way too much on late game tanks in design of coh2, leaving too many interesting light and med vehicles out ouf question. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Penetration system28 Mar 2018, 12:27 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Mar 2018, 22:28 PMShadowLinkX37 I thought most vehicles used a front/rear armor ratio of 2:1. So the first 2/3s of the tank would be the front and the last 1/3 would be the rear. Fairly certain that the KT isn't split 50/50 though. As far as I am aware, only ele got different ratio then 50:50. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: What to do with the KT?28 Mar 2018, 12:23 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 12:15 PMVipper With the current approach the game would be in much better state if the KT was removed (or become doctrinal) so that AT capabilities of the allied could be toned down to normal levels. Well, there is still a panther and its not like axis TDs give allied meds a chance to deflect. And speaking of normal Levels of AT capabilities, I wonder who came up with idea to introduce 400 pen vehicles against 375 max armor faction. I am genunely curious about the reasoning behind it.

Thread: pzgren should be wehr's dedicated tank hunters28 Mar 2018, 11:23 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2018, 05:45 AMFiresparks the pressure to upgrade is significantly less on the USF, while the UKF typically go for squad upgrade. While you will want to buy upgrade for your rifleman eventually, they can actually put it off until significantly later. By comparsion, the wehr their weaker infantry have a significantly greater need to upgrade. the panzergrenadier +schreck upgrade just doesn't mesh. The USF typically only need one squad with double bazooka, and usually that's the captain by default. The possibility of using Rear echolen for anti-tank duty is a great convenient. Against usf, you can go sniper, which negates the need for LMGs asap and allows you to get shrecks against light. But I am going to say it again - People expect shrecks to replace ATGs, not to support them and that is not going to happen. In: COH2 Balance
