  • Russian mines one shot full-health, spread-out squads?
  • Riflemen could get flamers?
  • Vehicles almost always decrewed rather than being destroyed?
  • AEC cars one-shot squads?
  • Centaurs one-volleyed squads?
  • Sandbags and wires and other buildings could be ghosted?
  • Trenches were not killable in early game and could built almost instantly anywhere?
  • Target weakpoint stunned vehicles completely?
  • Off-Map insta-wipe abilities didn't telegraph themselves at all?
  • Pay-to-win commanders (Advanced Emplacement) dominated?
  • Maxim Spam was a thing?
  • Full-Health Squad Wipes happened all the time from everything (including Pak Howitzers, Bazookas, etc)?
  • UK Sniper Critted Vehicle Engines?
  • Engine damage ocurred from normal hits?
  • Destroyed engine rng was a thing?
  • Bofors Suppressed and almost insta-wiped?
  • Bofors Suppressive Fire could wipe units in seconds?


Pepperidge farm remembers. This game is in a better place than it's ever been. One-man soviet snipers would probably remove the last piece of glaring imbalance in the game.

Pepperidge farm should also remember when the OKW and UKF weren't nerfed in the fucking ground as well, sadly almost nothing about the USF has changed.

UKF sniper can still critical lights, and you can still ghost bag people.

Centaur isnt as ridiculous as release but it still can melt squads with its rapid-fire ability.

Also, add Ost sniper instantaneously killing 2 models at vet 1.

OKW will be aids this next patch. Luftwaffe and, more importantly, Valiant Assault got buffed. UKF however is pathetic, yes.

Yes, this game has certainly managed to climb a mole hill over the course of five years. :foreveralone:

Funny how OP only mentions Allied units...

Old tiger ace was probably the most broken unit in CoH history. It came in a doctrine with stun nades and instant vet 3 turbo mortar too *shudders*

Obersoldaten had accuracy bonus against retreating units and their LMG34 dealt more damage it has now (twice the damage IIRC).

Doesn't compare to the worst offender of all time, the Tiger Ace on release. If I remember correctly it had double the health, double the armor that it has now and gave you your income back after 10 minutes of it being alive (or something like that). Insta win every time.

Honorable mention to the USF combined arms glitch where you could stack it and make your tanks main gun fire like a machine gun.

*open an ancient dusty scroll*

Instant traverse speed, instant PIN HMG42 with massive dps on top.

Flame 251 being harder to kill at vet2 then T34.

Ost pin plane interrupting retreat and being more effective at infantry killing then current IL-2.

March deployment grens.
