Lefh Counter Barrage Controversy

Jump back to quoted post23 Mar 2021, 20:58 PMPip

It shouldn't be so binary. It's fine that they can be killed, but you simply can't /do/ anything with the unit if the opponent has an adequate offmap, and that's the issue. Conversely, if your opponent DOESN'T have an adequate offmap, the thing is practically untouchable.

Come on man, you know the point he's making isnt "It shouldn't be able to be killed", it's that the unit type may as well not exist if your opponent has certain offmap options.

I think games should be designed and balanced by the viewpoint of competitive top players.

So autistic and unfun. You should be glad because that's exactly what's happening with this community driven "balance" team.

You can give the CB a pin point accuracy tracking and I hardly care since it a unit that can't even move to dodge anything unlike SPG and anyone can just nuke it

There is literally no reason to not balance around the best players in a given game. It isnt "Balancing" if you're making changes to suit players who do not know how to play, and you end up making something simply unplayable.

Go play MS Paint if you want fun. Coh2 is serious business.

Mortar auto attack, barrage and smoke barrage triggers CB.
MHT HE, AA, WP and Delayed as well.

It only tracks for the first shot, though. The video fails to mention that detail. Once it starts firing, it no longer tracks, and it will just finish its counter barrage in that area.

So this is only relevant when you cancel the rocket artillery barrage and start moving before the LeFH has had a chance to set up and fire the first shell.

You can nuke ml20 howitzers too, what's your point?

IMO it's a shame units autofire at all. The player should have to fire each shot in the game first person, or maybe third person style. I haven't decided which requires more 'skill'.

You wanna lay barbed wire? Uhh yeah that's gonna need a quick-time-event. You have to time the stake hammer with the right key press, or else the barbed wire animation fails and you have to start all over again.

Laying sandbags? Gonna have to use the new terrain grasper tool to fill each one individually. Don't overfill them or get any grass in there!

I'm really not seeing what sort of point you're trying to make here.

More trivia, CB activates and tracks shermans and the valentine if you use the smoke ability.

And I kid you not, CB also activates when the britt base howitzers fire as well , give that base a nice dose of extremely lethal rounds.

CB has cool down too. so you can misdirect it and waste it rounds.

does it tracks mortar shells?
