Agreed with the OP. Too many soviet players are just used to swarming a map with infantry, neglecting cover, and winning.

This patch is a MASSIVE step in the right direction for COH2 but of course there will be more adjustments in the future such as pios im sure. For once a patch that raises the skill level a bit instead of lowering it, and that goes for both factions. Of course scrub players who nub'd their way to the top of the ladder will hate it. I hope to see more patches like this in the future.


I can literally just attack move towards soviet base with grens and be assured of winning unless the soviet player has found some green cover to hide behind. Wow much skill, so tactic. I would've hated to play germans before this if this counts as "raising the skill level".

After ~30 in house scrims, two major issues are clear to me:

Con $/performance has deviated too far from Grens.
The 222 is forcing ZiS/Guards even harder than the FHT did.

T2 maxim/zis play into kv8 is only fun for so many games until you think 'fuck, I can be killing entire armies with pgrens right now'.

Post the replay of this vs a competent player and I'll believe.

Can we please buff the soviet defense doctrine. The DHSK gun can barely stop piospam!!! That would be a pretty decent early game doctrine (which is important now) if the CPs for DHSK were moved down one!

Anyway been playing nothing but sov games... Won 1 lost 4. Dont know what to think yet... But rifle nades are killer, LMGs hurt even worse now, and houses dont seem to provide as much cover as i thought (or they should). My rank fell from top 100 to far past 100... And I played guys who i consistently have beaten. EH... Ill keep trudging through soviets until something works.

But since you inquired:

Russians just need to get over the "left-click, right-click - blob attitude" they have. If you charge your infantry into German lines, not using cover, expect to die. Pioneers are bad at long range, Mosins are good at long range, figure it out. Choosing 3 conscript-squads and oorahing into German lines head on won´t do it. Try using some Maxims or Penals along your regular infantry.

Also it´s funny to see VonIvan complain. Some months ago I played 2 games in a row against him and all he did use was the T70 soviet industry rush. Now suddenly everything is unfair.

So you have played as Soviets after the patch? Could you share your win ratio? I still agree that patch is step to right direction, no deny about that. Biggest problems IMO are pioneers. They deny the map control rather easily.

"Everybody not agreeing with me is a fanboy. And when I´m out of arguments, I´ll try to lower the credibility of the opposing party". I have the opinion that the patch was a step in the right direction, yes. Germans were weaker pre patch, too weak, yes. That´s an opinion. Does that make me a fanboy? So, bring some real arguments or stfu.

I agree. I like it but the Soviets lack the tools to assault really. They have always lacked the tools to defend as well as Ost.

So now they have no assault advantage, no defense advantage and well the late game is untouched. Now what?

Fix Pios and tweak Soviet support weapons if we are meant to turtle. And make Penals good at something not just scripts with a better vet.

The fact that you are trying to argue about my person, shows me you are out of arguments. Also I´m not falling for that manipulative way of yours. As soon as my stats show some percentage more of German games I´m a "fanboy". there are actually people who don´t a gree with you out there, name calling won´t help you.

Again, try to bring some real arguments.

hey, let's bring it back a step here mate.

i'm not saying ANYTHING about your person. i'm just calling you misinformed because i have it under good knowledge that you pretty much are a german player, and that's cool. i like winning too!


but y'know, mate
people who don't have a remotely sort of even split between factions should kinda piss off from all balance discussion.... ya get where i'm heading?

heck, i'm probably consider a majority german player too, i've got a 180 - 130 split or something, nothing horrific like many of the... sadly very vocal members of this glorious forum B-)

It's hard for me to estimate who's going to be the winner in each engagement when units just hop around like mad every time they get shot at.

statistically Cons should have beat Grens at close combat 2.86 Mosinagants * 6 cons = 17.16 dps. It should take 18.6 seconds to take out one 320 hp Grenadier squad.

Grenadiers 5.86 Kar98k * 4 Grenadiers = 22.72 dps. It should take 21.12 seconds to beat a 480 hp Conscript Squad.

This is at point blank range, but to look at other values.

Range : Conscripts dps | time2killgren | Grenadiers dps | time2killcon

  • 0: 17.6 | 18.18 | 22.72 | 21.12
  • 5: 16.14 | 19.82 | 19.88 | 24.14
  • 10: 12.42 | 25.76 | 17.08 | 28.1
  • 15: 9.9 | 32.32 | 14.92 | 32.17
  • 20: 8.04 | 39.8 | 13.2 | 36.36
  • 25: 6.36 | 50.31 | 11.8 | 40.67



So it looks like the Conscripts are supposed to beat Grenadiers below the range of 20. However, because units hope around being shot at and that units take more then 2 seconds to shoot after moving it doesn't really matter.

Well ,not person, but the way you are trying to undermine my credibility here is just pathetic.

You just assume I´m a German fanboy, because I have a different opinion. This way you don´t have to deal with any argument.

And that´s weak.
