Besides, arty countering snipers would be the most counter intuitive thing ever

In COH 1 you had dedicated vehicles that would counter snipers such as the US Jeep, Whermact Motorbike and so on. My biggest complaint with COH 2 is that vehicles that would make a good counter to snipers cannot spot them unless you see them shoot one of your units and you dive in with a vehicle.

Okw's Kubelwagon has an ability called Kubelwagon Detection which adds +20 camouflage detection radius and-50% speed in addition it will also reveal units in the mini-map out to 70 range. Units such as the UKF Universal Carrier, Soviet M3A1 Light Scout Car, USF M20 Utility Car, Whermacht SdKfz 221 Scout Car and the OKW Kubelwagon should have this ability by default but without the -50% speed penalty and the maphack ability. Just a straight passive +20 Camouflage detection radius.

Why would it not be working, because it's a single model? How is it relevant?
The cooldown has been put on par with ost sniper to make up for less survivability.



"it doesn't work against good players".

You ought to watch more of the GCS footage, especially those with Luvnest.
Snipers always work if you know how to preserve it.
It's not even hard.


When did I say that snipers don´t work in 1v1? I said double Soviet sniper strats don´t work anymore in 2v2 (thank god) and I already explained why. I don´t remeber anyone using this strat in the entire 2v2 tourney.
