Thread: Layoffs at Relic? And the future of COH214 Mar 2016, 12:48 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Mar 2016, 12:32 PMpugzii The majority of the changes in these patches are just tweaking scripts and unit variables. This is something a balance designer would normally do, not a programmer. If you remember, they said the delay to the original vet-fix was they needed programmers to do some fixing (meaning it was outside of their abilities). The majority of bugs and issues with the game was down to the poor QA and shitty work done by Brad tweaking the games high level scripts and unit variables. I honestly believe he was let go due to the embarrassment of the patches. Well, yes and no, designer MAY change the values, but it is up to developer to build a patch for it as its a lil bit more then clicking "overwrite" button. Every game company has tracking and statistics involved with every patch launch and the leads probably noticed the amount of patches and hotfixes for the patches and hotfix for the patches patch that kept happening. 1) No need to tell me this really 2) You don't really need statistics to see these things, community manager informing of issues as they appear and product director who doesn't have head up his rear armor is enough to make a noise. Designers themselves aren't(shouldn't at least) be locked out of the outer world either. In: Lobby
Thread: the cure for cancer (aka emplacement)14 Mar 2016, 12:36 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Mar 2016, 12:31 PMSocrates I wonder how much salt and whine will be on forums if OKW Flak-halftrack, or OKW Flak Emplacement or OKW T4 will have same suppression ability as Bofors. It definetly need range reduction and should cost ammo (i'm not sure here, is it free?). Were you not around when heat seeking ISG parked next to schwerer was a thing? Also, if pit got range reduction, so would ISG need one, otherwise you'd have much cheaper, mobile unit hardcountering immobile, more expensive one, which makes as much sense as cons hardcountering pfussies.

Thread: Riflemen OP with Vet patch 14 Mar 2016, 12:32 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Mar 2016, 09:46 AMStug life What your versatile lmg rifle should beat lmg ober ? (And as always you point mistake of the other or simply deny them ) Trying being constructive for once ? What range? What vet? What cover? And yeah, the investment is very similar here, so there is no reason why it shouldn't. In addition, from vet4 onwards, there is no infantry in game what can beat obers without green cover. How about you, for once, eat your own advise and be consctructive? You know, put some stats into the perspective instead of covering yourself with Main Kampf every time anyone asks you for reason.

Thread: Layoffs at Relic? And the future of COH214 Mar 2016, 12:25 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Mar 2016, 11:10 AMCultist_kun There is thing called "reputation" and when you have 2 fucked up ESLs and almost fucked up third one, when you fix 1 bug and add 99, there is reson why you wanna hide your pretty face or fire some guy to blame, you know. Except, its NOT designers who are to blame for bugs, but developers. Not the guys coming up with ideas and balance, but the ones who code. In: Lobby
Thread: Riflemen OP with Vet patch 14 Mar 2016, 09:43 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Mar 2016, 09:14 AMStug life I like the fact that usf have a versatile strong main line infantry but it just should not beat elite inf If investment in that inf is greater then what elite inf costs, then it should. Elite inf doesn't translate to superior ubermensh walking over anything. Even LMG paras have counters(as in single squad beating them mercilessly) and axis doesn't have ANYTHING that would be as expensive. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Riflemen OP with Vet patch 14 Mar 2016, 08:30 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Mar 2016, 00:14 AMStug life Why instead of recived accuracy at vet 3 we give them 50-40% reinforce cost reduction ? Because it doesn't fix anything and we'd be back where one of most expensive squads that can NOT rely on elite infantry spam like certain other army coughOKWcough has basic infantry that gets pushed around by much cheaper squads.

Thread: Penals as suicide units?14 Mar 2016, 08:19 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Mar 2016, 05:19 AMFiresparks Remember when Flamethrower riflemen was so powerful, relic had to move the upgrade to rear echelon?. Penal is basically the same unit except their rifles are weaker. the only thing the penal needs is a buff to their rifleman and a vehicle snare on their satchel. I'm sure it had absolutely nothing to do with one of the most powerful call-in med tanks being there, rifles being more durable with vet, having normal, smoke and AT nades and FRP on top of all things. Nope, must definitely been the flamer on rifles alone. In: COH2 Balance

Well, it can finish scout cars when they are on sliver of health. Never tried using it on anything bigger then M3 though. In: COH2 Balance
