Thread: Incoming received accuracy for OKW units19 Aug 2014, 16:39 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 16:26 PMNinjaWJ oh no i mean if the armor and recieved accuracy is the same, why they pick one over the other? i can see they got nerfed which is nice No. I'm saying iirc they specifically explain why they did it in the patchnotes. Do you understand what I mean now? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Many maxims suggestion19 Aug 2014, 16:36 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 16:33 PMThe_rEd_bEar Don't play slot of Soviets do you? Don't understand basic precepts of logic do you. Units are abused, because they overperform. Any and all other units, even if perfectly balanced, seem "useless" when compared to it, by the simple fact that it overperforms (which leads to abuse). Its not a complicated formula. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Relic please stop hiding stats from us (bulletins)19 Aug 2014, 16:33 PM Unfortunately Relic has a very long history of not checking bulletins, or naturalising them. Some would seem to stack, whereas others don't. Also as I did a full read through patchnotes I had missed in recent months, I have to say, I was pretty damn dissappointed to see how many "oops" corrections there have been recently. Stuff that really should have been obvious or apparent even from superficial testing... I hope it doesn't become a pattern. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Many maxims suggestion19 Aug 2014, 16:29 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 16:03 PMGreeb Maxim is fine as it is. If it's abused is because soviets can't play with infantry because all their non-doc units are useless Nah. If a unit is abused, its because it is overperforming. As long as its overperforming, all other options, no matter how well balanced, will still look "useless" in comparison. Its pretty simple logic. OP: I think your suggestions has merit, but its a bit counter-intuitive and would be difficult to explain to players. I'd prefer something simpler, like a longer de-setup time for example as Skinless suggested. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Incoming received accuracy for OKW units19 Aug 2014, 16:12 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 15:56 PMNinjaWJ so why the change by relic? Iirc, it says in the patchnotes I linked to you... @Milkacow: I see. I was considering that armor+cover constitutes two rolls, whereas cover+acc red is a multiplicative single roll, perhaps to the result that it ends up scaling poorly according to the quality of the cover, whereas armor would be a single separate concrete roll in addition to first rolling past the cover modifier to hit.

Thread: Do Tigers really need Blitzkrieg?19 Aug 2014, 16:02 PM Could someone kindly mine the actual Blitzkrieg stat modifiers out for us, so we can examine them, learn and maybe come up with a concrete adjustment suggestion? Katitof: Burts said thats his view and how he feels on the issue. Give it a rest. Hes entitled to his opinion, and yours doesnt defacto trump it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Incoming received accuracy for OKW units19 Aug 2014, 15:30 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2014, 14:27 PMMilkaCow Example, made up numbers: A unit in cover gets only hit 50% of the times. Now we have the two possibilities, 1.5 armor or 66% incoming accuracy modifier. Both are the same (1/1.5 = 0.66). 50% * 66% = 33% Chance to hit and 1 / 1 = 100% chance to deal damage upon hit, resulting in total 33%. 50% * 100% = 50% Chance to hit and 1 / 1.5 = 66% chance to deal damage upon hit, resulting in total of 33%. There is literally no difference. None. 0. Nada. I see. How about in conjunction with cover modifiers? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Do Tigers really need Blitzkrieg?19 Aug 2014, 13:06 PM If you remove Blitz, then what takes its place? I dont see how moving Pintle to V1 and making it unupgradeable on non-vetted Tiger is a good thing, or an equitable "replacement" for losing Blitz. Its basically just another nerf ontop of it, of an unassociated AI capacity which is completely irrelevant to the Blitz issue. Blitz is stated as a problem. Ok, lets discuss its replacement/change. Pintle however is fine where and as it currently is. Why start messing with it? Anyone got any better suggestions for what to replace the Blitz with? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Incoming received accuracy for OKW units19 Aug 2014, 13:02 PM Yes, but armor stacks ontop of cover modifiers, additively, rather than multiplicatively, as does accuracy reduction. So at its core (disregarding the magnitude of the armor or the accuracy reduction for the moment) armor is better vs small arms, because it sits ontop of the cover modifier. Vs other things that also are affected by the accuracy received modifier, yes, that is superior to armor, for sure. But my point being that vs small arms, it seems to me that the armor modifier is a more effective option. In: COH2 Balance
