Gentleman's agreement not to use strafe if you post here.

Strafe has pretty much shut down a lot of games in 1v1s and 2v2s and it is just seriously too frustrating to play against. So I've stopped playing for a while as a result.

However, if you post here, you will agree not to use strafe until it gets patched.

That way, we can have, at least, some certainty decent games can be played out.

Anyone currently using Strafe can, deservedly, be called a douche.

Can someone explain me what does "strafe" refer to in context of coh2? I know what a strafe jupming is, in context of FPS games like quake, but my guess thats not the case...

Its referring to the Strafing Run doctrine ability on the Opel/Artillery Officer Commander.

So far it has been confirmed that the pinning on retreat is unintended.
Other possible changes are yet to be announced/implemented.

I'm gonna spam the shit out of it.

And no it doesn't pin down retreating infantry. Well, technically, it does. That's a bug with suppression in general and rarely happens. It's as likely to happen using a Maxim or MG42 as it is with Strafe.

It also pins in a massive area for a ridiculous amount of time at a very cheap cost. Effectively shuts down half of the map from infantry for ~40 seconds

Blizzards are great and can be used to your advantage. If someone uses strafe, you cannot use that to your advantage.

More chance of that happening than the 82mm Mortar hitting something!

82mm mortar accuracy is identical to 81mm mortar accuracy, as far as I know.
It does however have larger AoE ro asymetrically balance it vs 81s faster rate of fire.

Nice non sequitor though.
