They look awkward with 2 STGs and 2 Kar98ks. Pls give them 2 more STGs (maybe normal, not scoped) to help them compete against Rangers and Shock Troops at medium-close range.
Sturmpioneers are decent now but I wouldn't risk loosing my expensive repair squad for dangerous frontline duties.

That would be a straight buff to the ability that is probably not needed, especially not because it 'looks awkward'. They almost completely negate cover and do decent damage. They're not in the role of super beefy assault units like Shocks and Rangers, so why should they beat them in that role?

I think infantry sections look awkward with only 2 bren and 3 Enfield rifle, pls give 3 more bren.

That is a bit of an exaggeration they do not "almost completely negate cover". They simply have 0.9 accuracy multiplier instead of 0.5. Damage reduction still applies.

Almost completely negate yellow cover.*

That is a more accurate description. On the other hand since the point blank mechanism kicks in at range 10 anyway the accuracy bonus is mostly effective from range 20-10 and vs garrison.

The real buff IRstg obers need is a fix for their animation bugs. After a while those standing death models are infuriating. And sometimes the units stop shooting out of nowhere (maybe that's just me but it looks so weird).

I assume he's asking for Obersoldaten with 2 IR-StGs and 2 normal ones. That's very different from Panzergrenadiere.

That's true, thanks for the correction.

My general point though still stands.

Yeah let's give the unit that almost ignores cover, has 2 different grenades, and has great DPS at all ranges even more DPS and make it able to beat dedicated CQC infantry.

Funny enough you could actually equip them with Volksgrenadier StG's and it'd be a damage increase of less than 1dps at close range, and a loss of 2dps at long range.

You have already cover this THE UNIT DOES NOT "almost ignores cover", and since the ST44 have very high DPS at close range one should (in most case try) to move closer than 10 where the point blank mechanism kicks in anyway.

Actually Vamp obers have no to very little advantage over LMG Ober vs heavy cover in long range.

Yes, 0.9 accuracy vs instead 0.55 for the 2 ST44. Damage reduction still applies.

I never understood ober stgs, you get doctrinal weapon upgrade which already has better/good alternative like lmg
maybe they should buff it or merge with other doctrinal ability and add more useful thing (maybe mp40 upgrade from fire storm, it fits theme)

Merge with infiltration nades and tie them together. Stgs grant unparalleled building clearing without it being over saturated. With a change like that you could even remove the +5mu that DEVISTATED the commander and actually take a look at the uncounterable 2 click recon.

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.

Rosbone: It is an indicator of the very short sighted capitalist view that plagues any company where leadership does not understand the product.
13 Mar 2025, 20:00 PM
Rosbone: They dont care about Coh3 or Coh in general. They are just trying to grab cash by ripping off the small user base they have.
13 Mar 2025, 19:58 PM
Rosbone: Just making mistake after mistake after mistake.
13 Mar 2025, 19:57 PM
Rosbone: It is clear they crapped out an unfinished game. And are now barely supporting it as they make new smaller games. Coh3 is stillborn. It will be meh for at least another 2-4 years. Meaning they killed the whole franchise instead of growing it.
13 Mar 2025, 19:56 PM
Rosbone: For a thing they could fix in minutes. Literally minutes.
13 Mar 2025, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: If I did play coh3 and was mainly a skirmish player, I would be pissed and probably stop playing. And it has been like this since release. Why? I would not tell my friends to buy a game I am not even playing. Lost sales and angered users.
