Hey guys,

just had a game with some friends and we met a ZIS-Gun that one-shotted almost all of our tanks.

Check out the replay. Player u should look for is "Jack the Ripper"

http://www.coh2.org/replay/42801/gamebreaking-zis--clich

For those who are to lazy: Jack the Rippper uses the Forward HQ to kill and reinforce his ZIS-Gun several times. I dont now how it works, but suddenly this thing becomes a tankkiller. You can see how this gun kills several P4s with one shot and tigers with 2 shots. Close to the end you can see how this gun almost kills a panther with one shot.

I seems like the whole strategy of this player is based on this bug.

Game was very annoying, at least we got all of his katys... :-(

I haven't viewed the Replay but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the ZiS was abandoned and recrewed within the radius of the Forward HQ? The game is having a lot of problems with bonuses sticking to weapons or vehicles that get decrewed, then applying the bonus again when they are recrewed.

Relic has already had to patch the Captain, Stuart, Jackson, Sherman, and Bulletins for it. Might have to add Soviet Forward HQ to the list. I'd test it myself, but I don't have the HQ Commander.

yup. FHQ gives a damage bonus so if you stack it a few times (as someguy described) then you get really high damage.

The Forward HQ gives a +50% damage boost to anti-tank guns, so if that stacks then it will quickly turn it into a one-shot anti-tank deathray. It's a multiply_add operation rather than multiply, so each stack adds another 50% of it's base damage (80), so 160 -> 240 -> 320 -> 400 and so on.

QFT, waiting for Cuddletron to notice this.

aerafield: yeah I already prepared my "Can't believe there's comic mode for the 10 daily visitors even on this April 1st"

01 Apr 2025, 20:29 PM

Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead

01 Apr 2025, 20:19 PM

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy
