Thread: Kothre and darkfireslide's Soviet tiering proposal!7 Aug 2014, 07:43 AM Jump back to quoted post7 Aug 2014, 07:42 AMNinjaWJ not to go off topic, but it is a shame when people call for maxim nerfs without compensating somewhere else. I think the true problem is not maxim strength (maybe they work too well..), but Soviet non-doctrinal infantry just plain suck. Relying on shocks and guards to be your core infantry stink because they are doctrinal Agree, like someone said before; Doctrinal infantry are meant to supplement your force but I see more people using them as their force. One thing I always didn't understand, why should volksgrenadiers, grenadiers, osttruppen have different damage output? Wouldn't it make more sense if it the difference between them was accuracy instead of damage? Maybe Conscripts, Volks and osttruppen should have lower damage because the number of men (gameplay reason) but getting hit by a 7.92mm isn't really much different from getting hit by a 7.62 right? If the damage of conscripts, osttruppen were higher, then they would be more useful right? In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Flushing troops out of green cover6 Aug 2014, 11:51 AM Yes, flamethrowers are awesome against troops in cover although they work best against troops in buildings. Grenades are pretty meh right now. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: [Q] Banning Luftwaffe out of Tournaments in teamgames6 Aug 2014, 11:50 AM I guess it's okay to ban it for tourneys since you can actually use it in double ost game by making your teammate get panzer iv like 6-8 mins into the game when the first tank normally pops out 13 mins In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Demolition6 Aug 2014, 08:04 AM Is it possible to program so that demo charges are revealed all the time but invisible in cover? That would make more sense and stop people using them as "uberminen". Back on topic, I find that using a tellermine as a demo charge works fairly well. I know tellermine deals 500 damage according to coh2 stats but anyone knows the damage from demo charge? In coh2 stats it says 250 but I thought I have seen it do more damage. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Surviving in Stalingrad as Germany?5 Aug 2014, 08:12 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Aug 2014, 06:58 AMHighfiveeeee Veto that map. Don't know why they brought it back to the mappool. Check out the spoiler. I'm not pro. Back on topic, I find that upgrades for grens are necessary (G43/LMG42) G43 if you want to play aggressively or LMG42 if you want to go for higher dps. The LMG really only works for fights in the southern part so G43 is your best bet. Rifle nades are not that useful since most buildings there are large and might require multiple nades to kill something. IS2 I haven't had experience fighting yet only KV8s. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Spam Concensus 4 Aug 2014, 17:08 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Aug 2014, 16:37 PMRomeo depends on the unit. I think manpower is a better measurement. For example I'd say 1000+ manpower invested in any unit is spam. Although I guess by that logic two king tigers is spam. 6 RE troops = 960mp. Nope ain't a spam yet. Still can't kill things anyway. Tried against bot. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Finally a reason for Relic to Nerf that BS4 Aug 2014, 14:18 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Aug 2014, 13:17 PMKatitof Actually, soviet snipers did worked in pairs. German snipers worked alone and US and brits didn't really used snipers, but sharpshooters. Oh, you're right. I made a mistake regarding the sniper team. Need to find proper sources next time instead of a thin book from the local library. My bad. Btw, the Brits do use snipers. In Dunkirk, British snipers were the ones who delayed the German advance. British snipers were trained to conceal themselves with camouflage clothing. It's just that they didn't train many men to be snipers. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Finally a reason for Relic to Nerf that BS4 Aug 2014, 13:11 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Aug 2014, 11:51 AMCardboard Tank The problem is the two man squad the soviet sniper comes in. That´s way too hard to kill. A 222 may seem like a good option, but above a certain level the opponent will spam mines. The pioneers with minesweepers can detect one mine at best and then have to retreat. Currently your best bet is to have a lucky mortar shot and god knows that is a shitty strategy that can´t be relied on. This dual sniper squad ruins games. The sniper team is fine if it didn't steer away from realism too much. From what I remember WW2 snipers were always working alone and never with a mate. To justify for the two men, the Soviet sniper shoots slower compared to his German counterpart. Is this another stereotype of Soviet inferiority. Vasily Zaitsev was one of the best sniper and he was a Soviet. Both snipers should be equal and get better with vet. In: COH2 Balance
