The first few patches of COH2 were the most enjoyable for 1v1 play. Back when T34 ram was kinda OP but backfired badly when dodged, back when Pzgrens took a shit on HTD scripts, back when you would actually see the Ostheer vs Soviet sniper matchup, back when there was T34 vs Pz4 or P4s flanking SU85s every game. 1v1 was actually fun then, now I just play it every now because I like competition more than the game itself.


Then for some reason they decided to nerf everything ostheer has.

You got MG42 that didn't suppress, sniper that dies by touching sunlight, Panzer 4 that don't kill anything, Pzgren being a manpower bleed that doesn't do anything etc etc.

4.(very important) Do NOT support it in anyway
5.Wait until 10% health is remaining and engine crippled then try to retreat

It's so funny that you think I play with Tiger Ace like that.It's not viable in 2vs2+ modes because who use Tiger Ace will be overwhelmed by enemy tanks.If I would receive a vet 3 king tiger then yeah,that will be a game changer with spearhead assault ability.

Guess what?!

Not all doctrines are useful for 1v1/4v4 or all modes!


In other words, you want to change TA becasue you can't use it in 2v2+

That is exactly my point. WHY is it overwhelmed by enemy tanks when it costs ZERO fuel. You should already have other tanks of your own to support it.

The joke is that most people lose it by sending it on a Yamamoto style attack on the enemy.

Lastly, if the enemy has enough tanks to 'overwhelm' it then it should lose. They saved the fuel and waited for you to expose it then swarmed it.

This post is so incorrect I could not let it pass.

MG42 is the best suppression platform in game.

Sniper has same health as Brit and more than Soviet.

P4 is good generalist, shreds infantry, gets nice vet, synergizes with many docs, and can engage heavies from rear.

PG's are not mainline infantry, they fill the role of elite infantry and with changes to mines I expect to see them more often.

TA is largely fine, would be ok giving the commander OKW elite armor arty.

You know his post was talking about the earlier state of the game after the first few release patches right?

Aside from stereotyping no. But it is standard for the majority of asian players to equip doctrines that come with heavy armour.

Mods, delete post if causing offense.

Just ranting due to always facing this doctrine when facing certain opponents.
