It's been a point of contention for a while now, and there's still inconsistencies with which abilities can and cannot be used in HQ sectors. So I'd like to hear some thoughts on the matter, and whether or not such a change can be implemented in the upcoming balance preview.

What do you define as a "HQ Sector"?
Are you counting OKW trucks as HQ Sectors? What if they're built together in a sector?

Offensive artillery (IE - one where the longer the enemy is there, the more shells drop) is already disabled

By HQ sector he means the sector in which the base emplacements are kept and where all tech structures (aside from OKW) are kept. Also, I don't know if there's any "types" of artillery in this game, the whole thing seems rather inconsistent, with almost all EFA abilities allowed in bases, some WFA abilities, and no BAF forces allowed in base IIRC.

Yes they should be disabled.

you shouldn't be able to base cheese with stuka, IL2, ect.
It was for a time when you could build arty in your base but now its just an oversight.

It should be one answer for all of such abilities in the game, not like now, when some abilities have such privilege without any reason. In my opinion - yes they should be disabled within HQ sector.

Since WFA and UKF brought powercreep to offmaps thus they decide to disable some of them, my answer is yes so as to bring consistency overall.

On the other hand, i'll say we need less powerful bunkers inside base (OKW/USF)

I know the OKW bunkers are more powerful, on account of them being able to damage light vehicles and shoot down planes rarely, but, other than the extra 2 on the base circle itself, what makes USF bunkers more powerful than Ost, Sov, or Brit bunkers?

The extra MGs on the circular base are unnecessary IMO. We have problems on certains maps that MG bunker cover part or completely strategic points outside base, sometimes this extra bunkers make it worst (example Crossing in the Woods).

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 :clap:

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
