It has never been fun to lose against OKW in team games. Ever. Shrek blobs into panthers and heavy tanks every game.

I know that this is the case and you are correct, but in my opinion one bullshit doesn't justifies another one.
Let's hope the OKW problem is being solved with the upcoming patch. The Brits on the other hand stay almost the same besides the nerfs to the Cancer Commander (thank God).

I had some games against double Brits in 2v2 today and I still think that Brits made the game so much MUCH MUCH worse.

While it was somehow balanced with WFA and fun to play, fun to win and even to lose, Brits just took the fun out of playing as Germans.

I cannot play more than 3 games a day as Germans because it is so fucking frustrating to play against Brits and absolutely zero point zero fun.

If only I knew what was going to come when I thought "wow these P42 strafing runs are really strong" back then...

This faction is fucking cancer. I also play it and it is ridiculous how forgivable Sim City is. Brace needs to be removed. Brits have amazing units, give them a usual Mortar and remove that toxic Bofors.

The only non doctrinal counter is ISGs but they also bleed so fucking much that you need them to be placed near a Medic HQ. And guess what? If the enemy sees the HQ, then say goodbye because these British bombers will wreck the place like Dresden '45. Yes I am salty because I like CoH2. I love this game, but since the Brits, playing (anything else than Brits themselves) is no fun. Absolutely not at all. You play because there is nothing else you can play in this genre. CoH2 wins the price for the best balanced and most fun popular WW2 RTS game with 3/10 stars. Other competitors: None. (Don't start with MOW, the community is even smaller than CoH's)

There is so much anti fun that Brits (re-)introduced:

• Bofors, an area denial that kills everything that is not retreating in less than 2 seconds with a highly lethal and pinning barrage that counters its counters. Many people answer to this that OKW also has his Schwerer Panzer HQ, but keep in mind that this one costs 500MP + 130 Fuel, doesn't kill anything instantly, has no barrage, the player can't give attack orders and if you lose it you are screwed. If the Brit loses his Bofors, he builds another one. 280MP/30Fuel, so what.
  
• Brace, a get out of the jail card that lets your emplacements survive if they are attacked.
  
• The bullshit race to the cutoff buildings. After the game starts you have to IMMEDIATELY get into the building at your fuel point, because once the Brit has an MG inside it you can leave the area with your whole army.
  
• Mortar Cover and the Bombing run. You can't place your HQs outside your base when playing against Brits as OKW because they will die with one click.
  
• Advanced Emplacement Doctrine. Seriously the guy who thought this was a good idea should have to train on a bycicle with a dildo wrapped up with barbed wire instead of a seat at least twice a week.
  
• A medium tank that crushes everything that doesn't retreat instantly. At least this gets fixed. But not the Cromwell itself, rather remove that feature, because why not.
  
• Tulips. Yeah I know, they are a skillshots and I also somehow find them cool. But destroying most German medium tanks with one shot (shoot + double Tulip hit) is stupid.
  
• Gammon grenades that are satchel charges with a one second timer.
  
• God damned mortar pits that cover at least two victory points and shoot two grenades at once.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

I am so salty I can't believe it. There is no game in this world where I get the nearest bit of salty but this stupid game. I play League of Legends, the mother of salt, where small children have smurf accounts just to bash other players and you know what? I don't give the slightes fuck if I get stomped in 15 games in a row, I play Mario Kart and eat a blue shell and multiple red ones + rockets 5m before the finish line when being #1 but CoH is somehow a bit different.


Losing just doesn't feel deserved because losing in CoH2 means losing to cheese, RNG and other bullshit in 9 of 10 times. If my enemy micros better and uses his troops better then I have no problem with losing at all. But losing against someone who rushed his Vickers MG to my cutoff point at lost glider, preventing me from getting anything but my base ressources without being able to do anything as OKW makes me want to hit someone on the head so hard that he comes out in China.

I'm gonna quote myself:

Thanks for the read, I'm gonna roll myself in a sea of french fries to make something out of the bag of salt I am.

A one line post that just wants something without any discussion why. Great.
If there is no 'good' discussion coming up, I'm gonna close this thread.

I'm not even sure if the Tiger can be hulled down since it's not in any doctrine that has hull down.

I am pretty sure that at least all Ostheer vehicles can be hulled down.
IMO Relic created the commander's abilities without even knowing which one will be in which commander in the final game so they probably just made a function that hulls down the area around the targeted object.
For example Soviets had a commander with ISU + IS2 + Bombing run in the Alpha (I think it is also posted in this thread).

I am actually a bit irritated why Allied vehicles can't be hulled down. I'm gonna test that one later.

Ask Jove about his 7000hrs in less than a year...

Which would be 292 days.
This means that he spent about 80% of the year in CoH2 which means 19 hours a day, sleep not calculated.
So probably his PC just was in CoH2 all the time wether he was playing or not.
