"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?..The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and... the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough...We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

Thread: What was old CoH2 infantry combat like?13 Oct 2021, 18:14 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2021, 17:32 PMGGnore Im not sure I guess the balance team were trying out a lot of things early on so you saw wild swings in balance whereas now they make small changes comparatively, according to the changelog the elefants damage hasnt been more than 320 and isu's health lower than 960 but it clearly took more than 500 hp in that hit. 320 hp in one shot... 2 shots of damage, and considering that if most tanks did 80 damage with the main gun... the elephant did 4 shots worth of damage... Could you imagine?? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Sturmtiger over nerfed 13 Oct 2021, 17:24 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2021, 16:11 PMPip Oneshots in general are terrible design. Both the AVRE and Sturmtiger being strong is terrible for the game. As much as I like the Sturmtiger aesthetically/thematically; I much prefer it being a meme vehicle to being the utter menace that It has been in recent patches. +1 CoH had the petard mortar too but you had to pay muni for it. Though I think it was a trivial amount all considered. like 30 muni iirc. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: PTRS detonating mines underneath tanks?13 Oct 2021, 17:22 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2021, 15:48 PMProtos Angelus What Hannibal has said. PTSR can now ground target. Ground is where the mines are. 2+2 = 5 Yeah except he didn't have engineers to spot them nor did he at any point. Read post next time 4head In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: What was old CoH2 infantry combat like?13 Oct 2021, 17:18 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2021, 17:12 PMGGnore conversely heres a elefant taking 70% of a isu152's health in one hit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0bfOZqkErk&list=PLFWa7lAuxXdje-vaDzr7eTrf54xgB9HcL&index=1 Then theres a elefant bouncing off a su85's front armour at close range https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipjwhW4dadk&list=PLFWa7lAuxXdje-vaDzr7eTrf54xgB9HcL&index=2 This game has changed drastically so many times, read the early patch notes for panthers with king tiger health and 60 range @ 150 fuel, t70's that could crush infantry and isu152's with the same armour as t34's This is absolutely marvelous. The fact that an SU85 took a shot from the Elephant and ended up with the roughly the same level of health as the ISU did... Did the elephant do percent damage or something?? Or were the ISU and SU85 really just that close in health? This is really boggling my mind at this point. It's like a fever dream where nothing makes sense. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Can the stugs stun ability not require vet13 Oct 2021, 17:12 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2021, 15:50 PMZeroZeroNi I see stun and blind as being in the same boat... so..... keep it change it doesn't matter. Ok. It's just you keep calling the blind "stun" so was thinking perhaps you wanted a stun instead. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can the stugs stun ability not require vet13 Oct 2021, 13:47 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2021, 06:44 AMZeroZeroNi To have a mobile stun available always. When I play allies I have the option of have mobile vehicle stuns be it guards with dp(always good to have at any stage if you can afford it), AEC/Stuart(not really ideal at late game though), Tulips(Expensive but you can have this and it's under your control). Again at late game mobile stuns that doesn't have an uncontrollable time delay on when can you use it. So you want the StUG's ability to be changed to a stun and not a blind then. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: PTRS detonating mines underneath tanks?13 Oct 2021, 13:44 PM Just a weird experience I had a few games ago, was playing Whiteball against a soviet player who went PTRS penals and just about 3 times, the PTRS detonated a mine underneath my vechicle. There weren't engineers around to reveal the mines or anything. Did I just get bad luck and a scatter shot hit the mine? Or is it something else? In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: (4v4) Countering Allied medium spam.12 Oct 2021, 19:15 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Oct 2021, 15:31 PMShadowLinkX37 Panthers best option probably... Jump back to quoted post12 Oct 2021, 16:38 PMJibberJabberJobber Panther with skill smoke is overall best option against medium spam. The Stug might provide more firepower for the cost than the Panther, but it lacks its HP, armor, speed and turret... After reading your guys' responses and looking over the differences in health (85s with 5 shots of health, Panthers with 6) what you're saying makes a lot of sense. I guess I just thought that it was more important to get more guns out on the field so you could kill them quicker, but I guess I was probably just overestimating the STUG in this situation. I know for sure that STUGs are very good even in teamgames, but against 85 spam, panthers are the way to go. Thank you for the replies! In: Strategy Desk
Thread: Hannibal's personal gameplay design12 Oct 2021, 14:53 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Oct 2021, 11:23 AMHannibal HMGs: I am undecided if they should act as high suppression platforms or as infantry killing machines. The former makes more sense for gameplay, however I somehow prefer the latter. I prefer the current implementation of suppression. Partially for realism and partially for balance. If you're suggesting to lower suppression in favor of tearing infantry to shreds, I have to disagree. Maybe increase damage against units in neutral and negative cover, but I'd say that light and green is probably fine. In: COH2 Gameplay
