Not much to say, very unimpressed with the Valentine. Comes too late to help counter LVs, main gun damage is 120 and not 160 why? Since the AEC is strictly AT purposed the Valentine could be made a AI/AT hybrid. Currently the only good thing about the Valentine is the sight range, which is... not that good for 80F.

Well, i think it's anti-infantry ability is better than AEC, and that makes it much better option. And valentine doesn't require AEC upgrade.
I just want them to change the bugs that valentine still shows to be 12 pop as it costs actually 7 pop.

I believe it is a support weapon who can defend itself, it access to a lot of abilities.

Agreed, valentine comes too late for it cost. It need either come at 4 cp or have another buff like -20% reload time and 20% more accuracy

2 Valentines cost more than one p4.
The thing is, Valentine come at a time where i only 1 min. away from a centaur or a cromwell.

Think you have never felt the pain of waiting for cp5 to get your counter out...

While Valentine comes rather late to counter very early light vehicles, I don't think that takes away from the performance of the unit itself.
I think this unit's speed, high rate of fire and effectiveness to both infantry/armor, and ability to tank snare attempts, makes it one of the most unique and high performing units in the game.
Albeit a bit RNG depedent, two of these things absolutely obliterates infantry in the right situation.

While it's anti-tank performance is not that great when operating solo, it has very good synergy with any dedicated AT units, especially AT guns. It can provide vision, block pathing, and can easily flank rear armor due to how fast it is.

Valentine spam is arguably a very viable meta.

Might be worth in team games where you can focus on Sexton synergy? I'd never bother with them in 1v1 though

its speedy, durable and for 35mu can call in an arty barrage, its not really a bad unit. use its gun to keep up pressure when it hits the field then divert to recon and support when it gets risky to use. its bloody fast and the pen is alright, good enough to risk using it to support against an enemy attack (its not going to hold the line at all, but it might get a shot in now and again. idk what you want from it.

I think it comes rather late but performancewise I'm not totally unimpressed. The damage increase seemed to really help it out but IIRC its veterancy bonuses are mostly garbage unless they changed them.

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
Last Thursday, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
Last Thursday, 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.
Last Thursday, 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.
Last Thursday, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM
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.
18 Mar 2025, 19:01 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.

Nickbn: @adamírcz might be a better idea to voice this to relic directly than to voice it here, in a shoutbox of a nearly deade fansite #justsaying...
