Thread: Ostheer Command Bunker18 Mar 2015, 13:03 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Mar 2015, 12:36 PMFaustCostBulletin AM is right in saying that forward retreat point's effectiveness and fairness differs extremely greatly depending on the map. On some maps, it allows you to get back in the fight right away when the enemy would need at least a minute. Yes. And things get worse in larger game modes. Large snowy maps... Yuck! In: Lobby
Thread: Assault Grenadiers18 Mar 2015, 12:58 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Mar 2015, 11:42 AMarmatak When closing in in open field ass grens can't even close in on conscripts without loosing 1 or 2 models, 2 conscript squads will even shred a squad of ass grens. Just make sure to always fight at range. Thanks for contributing a good example of incorrect useage of ass grens. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Schwerer so broken, will it be fixed in the upcoming patch?18 Mar 2015, 12:52 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Mar 2015, 12:17 PMJaigen Uhm no. If you place a med truck you better believe that i take into consideration if the allies have access to 120 mm or even worse b4's. and i have seen some okw players losing several k's worth in mp because of squad wipes at their medtruck. [...] Same could be done when you retreat to your base sector, so med truck has nothing to do with it. And if we are talking about certain doctrines that can AoE your retreat point - CAS doctrine have recon plane, stuka dive bomb and ability to get resources to use them, so squad wipes at retreat point isn't something special that only OKW suffers from. I have to say that I'm still convinced that only BAD OKW or USF players suffer from forward retreat, healing and reinforcement point. For example, the ones who carelessly BLOBS right into your MGs, then, unable to control units separately, he MASS RETREATS, exposing whole their army to a single AoE ability. So, if you agree that I deflected your argument, there is no disadvantages in forward retreat/reinforce/healing in particular and free bonuses with teching in general, that smart experienced player couldn't avoid.

Thread: Five man grenadier squads are exactly what Ostheer need.18 Mar 2015, 09:22 AM Jump back to quoted post15 Mar 2015, 10:47 AMStafkeh Thats nonsense indeed. Screwed around with Mod Tools a while ago and edited formations. Cover system still worked fine... They are just too lazy to adjust it Squad formations: http://www.coh2.org/topic/30005/coh2-squad-formations/page/1 O_O WHAT A GLORIOUS MOD YOU HAVE THERE! You should somehow make Relic to see that. I'm serious. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Schwerer so broken, will it be fixed in the upcoming patch?18 Mar 2015, 08:04 AM Jump back to quoted post18 Mar 2015, 07:41 AMJohnnyB Strategic decisions: WHERE should I place my retreat point on map? Closer to my base?Closer to his? Closer to a cutoff? Closer to a resources/victory point , etc. Should I shield it with a house or with some trees? How to place it in order for retreating units to easily access it? Disadvantages: An advanced retreat point can be shelled with balistic weapons that can be placed verry safe (NEAR or even IN your opponent base). An advanced retreat point can be shelled with off maps and can be easilly spoted in order to. Finally, an advanced retreat point can be stormed in team games by 2-3 armies in the same time, and be made one with the ground with all retreated units. Is it more clear now? To me it sounds like either you get only advantages or you're just an inexperienced player. In: COH2 Gameplay

They will fix every damn issue the community wishes for? You seem to be very excited (no offense intended). Man, do you really believe in "them"? C´mon. I'll tell you more - I like the game as is. March patch is just icing the cake. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Conscripts scaling to late game...17 Mar 2015, 21:02 PM My thoughts: 1) I think cons are fine as is. They good enough in early game. In late game they provide utility with AT nade, molotov and merge. It would be great if there was another infantry squad which would replace them and which they could merge with. If Shocks and Guards stay doctrinal, I suggest Assault Guards (the ones from Lend-Lease doctrine which comes in M5 HT). 3 PPSh, 3 SVT, grenade (maybe unlockable with molotov), veterancy bonuses that suits their role. Maybe PPSh should be upgradable for muni only after T3 or T4 is built in order to delay their efficency. I not sure if Soviets are need that though. 2) Penals need some more dedicated range where they excel. Since last patch Cons DPS is the best when they facehug their enemy. Penals should be like mid range unit (also SVT suits that role just fine). 3) If Penals are in T1, those Assault Guards could be put into T2 (although, they not fit there thematically). In order to keep same 3 units per T1 and T2, I think, AT gun could be moved to HQ and become available for production after either T1 or T2 is built. This would stop T1 getting completely #rekt by very first Flak HT, Puma or Luchs. In order to reduce effectiveness of Maxims against OKW, it's crew size could be reduced to 5 man and... Voilà! T1 is completely viable alternative against OKW. T2 have things to sink muni. Shocks are not THAT necessary as you get potent close-range 6-man squad as you tech T3 or T4. In: Lobby
