Thread: 2020 CoH 3 is becoming more real by every day3 Dec 2018, 08:03 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Dec 2018, 22:45 PMelchino7 I'm just saying that old Blizzard used to develop games for "gamers", because most devs were fans of their own products and they had the freedom to do so. The whole debacle on Blizzard which was brought by Diablo Mobile, is only a visible symptom of what's been happening during the last 5-8 years. This kinds of news towards Relic or other companies isn't something to be surprised as you said. Diablo mobile is for Chinese market where Blizzard's fan of WoW or Starcraft like to play on their smarphones. Diablo3 isn't enough old to get its retirement period from the Western store. Now yeah maybe Western fans were maybe expecting another extension. Note that I fully agree Blizzard work quality went down with Starcraft and Diablo. But WoW is still an amazing piece of work (even if I don't play it since long) and they always try to renew the experience with every addon. Can't deny that. In: Lobby
Thread: Soviets are OP1 Dec 2018, 14:42 PM Building tier could reduce Cons initial price, like -10 manpower per building. They wouldn't be spammable early game but more affordable to reemplace as the game goes on. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF Tech Changes Mod Changelog29 Nov 2018, 18:16 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Nov 2018, 17:47 PMVipper And if USF decide to turtle with fighting positions (LT?)/captain, howitzer and/MHTT how is Ostheer going to push? Smoke and flank. Jump back to quoted post29 Nov 2018, 17:23 PMZombiFrancis These two don't jive with each other. But switching the AAHT and the Stuart just serves to reverse the very goals you're purportedly seeking. It'll always be LT first, with a decision to rush a stuart or go for an ATG. Captain would become more a teamgame tier and lieutenant 1vs1 tier. On teamgame you can rely on your parnter HMG and you focus atg and pak. In: Lobby

Thread: USF Tech Changes Mod Changelog27 Nov 2018, 20:07 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2018, 18:12 PMVipper That is incorrect, play Ostheer and you will see. T1 only give access to units and faust. Grenades and lmgs come with battle phase 1. As USF you should there is no point in unlocking everything including grenades and weapons simply because you do not have the munition to both upgrade weapons and use grenades. Finally riflemen will beat grenadiers if both do not have weapons. It is about choosing what you are going to use not unlocking everything. Which was wise and balance some years ago but not anymore.

Thread: For balance Axis really needs demo or satchel. 22 Nov 2018, 20:54 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Nov 2018, 19:41 PMGrumpy I think my problem with this, and a lot of the other threads, is the premise that if any of the allied faction has something, then all axis need it. USF doesn't get non-doctrinal flamers, advanced medium tanks, a heavy tank, rocket arty (and even the one doctrinal was nerfed into uselessness), non-doc elite infantry, a super TD (doctrinal or not), etc, etc. yes but they have better riflemen In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF Tech Changes Mod Changelog21 Nov 2018, 12:36 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Nov 2018, 09:56 AMsherlock You are mistaken. I am playing the mod and point out what I observe. I am looking at how the timing compares to how it is now (the unmodded version). I also realise the futility of these "bait and switch" discussions, which is why I'll refrain from entertaining them, within threads, if you wish to discuss this and other points further, please feel free to pm me. As it stands, the m20 is now less potent when it hits the field since the close range damage was reduced (for good reason) and hits it slightly later depending on build order. Its window of opportunity is notoriously short and potentially shortened, which is why I pointed it out. But it hits harder thanks to the accuracy bonus, I see it as a sniper on wheel now, you also vet it with 5 to 6 kills when the old one needed around 10 to 12. Less damage but more consistent Vet faster Cheaper as unit but more expensive to unlock I think you can make pay an Ostheer player who went sniper by simply applying the same pressure on his squads which isn't possible on live version.

Thread: USF Tech Changes Mod Changelog21 Nov 2018, 08:37 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Nov 2018, 08:25 AMSander93 Donating the team weapons (especially the .50) to a Soviet ally would become real problematic at 200MP. The munitions cost presents a strategic choice. The drops still give USF plenty of advantages, mainly not having to spend fuel on team weapon unlock (so faster tanks) and preventing getting another officer squad when what you really want is Paras. Better have both officer squads and one less riflemen + Para than spending munition on drops. It is not like USF is floating in munition. If you want to rush sherman with Lieutenant first, what would be the reason to unlock the Stuart? better unlock the captain If you want to rush sherman with Captain first, what would be the reason to unlock AAHT + pakH? Build 1 or 2 mortar if you need that much indirect fire. Better unlock the Lieutenant next. Then Para will greatly benefice from officer smoke, in fact para have much more synergy with officers than riflemen. In: Lobby
