This meta is getting old. Just rush your OP unit there and stay in like a parasite, with a grim on your face, and wait for your OP vehicles. No strategy whatsoever.

Shhh, I'll give you advice but don't tell anybody, it's a secret: Units in green cover win against units in building cover.

I agree with your thoughts but I won*t say its op. I think some maps are ok.Some aren't.
Houses on Angoville, Semois, and Kholodny break the game from time to time.

If they're at least > 10 range away (because cover goes away within 10 range)
WAIT BUT WHERE YOU GET YOUR STATS TELL ME MAGICIAN

Yeah, true, that one I would tell him if he would ask for help instead of asking for changing the game he doesn't understand... In this case it would be better for him to learn the second part firsthand :megusta:

Btw. I feel like I'm turning into katitof, what to do doc? Kappa

EDIT: Not to be a scumbag I'll add one more piece of advice: Those key buildings tend to have a side with only one window or even with none. Thanks to the magic of coh2 enemy soldiers in building have to shoot through windows to hit you, but your soldiers that are outside can kill them through wall just as fast as they would facing a window, no matter how strong the wall is. That means you can sit with your squad even without cover and no matter the range and easily win a fight. Obviously in one window scenario it won't work against mgs as they can use all firepower through one window. In that case you can circle around the building and kite the mg, or attack from 2 different directions. Axis and brit mgs take ages to change windows so it should be easy, other factions don't get the T0 mg so they can't rush it to the building.

PSA: all MG rotate windows at the same speed. It used to be related to the reload of each MG but that was changed a while ago.

Pssst

Get Flamers and indirect fire.

Then again maybe he's right, OP units gonna be OP and there probably isn't anything you can do about it.

There's a nifty little gadget in the USF arsenal. It's really cheap and is available to the mainline infantry. It's used to obstruct vision.
Combine this with a so called flank and you are golden.

I partially agree,especially on the last picture.
Units in buildings have 0.55 acc modifier.
Use cover that is 10 meters aways from the building and try to position where the least windows are.

I'm more annoyed that HMGs in buildings auto rotate themselves to a better window. There should be a better approach to HMGs in buildings as certain buildings on certain maps when crewed with HMGs cover large areas of that map without any user input, which result in a lockdown of a few sectors from early on.

I am also annoyed that HMGs in building have their shooting arc bugged - they always shoot further than what the arc shows.

How the hell did he manage to "rush" the building that is just outside your base and miles away from his? :huhsign: Are you sure you didn't screw up terribly?

Rosbone: It is also hard to expect Relic to help Coh2 when they cant even make working menus in Coh3 yet, 2 years after release and at full price+ for DLCs. Thats like asking a fish to do calculus.
Last Tuesday, 02:58 AM
Rosbone: But this last patch has made good progress for grabbing players. All we can hope is Coh3 gets to Coh2s quality level before everyone abandons the franchise. Its Relic so they will completely f*%k it up as usual. But its a hope/cope.

Rosbone: Relic wants Coh2 to fail so players will migrate to Coh3. It is hard to blame them since Coh3 sucks so bad. It needs all the help it can get.
