Thread: Gren spam into 222 28 Jun 2016, 06:59 AM I just played NerfGerms (aaa) in automatch, said he had keyboard issues as he was soft retreating Con squads and using Oorah at the same time. (In other words...excuses.) Needless to say he sucks and I waxed him, especially because he exclusively plays Soviet like their Ost. In: Red Army Strategies
Thread: Reworking muh Riflemen27 Jun 2016, 21:02 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2016, 20:55 PMPencilBatRation It hasn't been a nightmare for the past 2 years, it is not a nightmare now. The freshly added T0 turbo pack howie is a nightmare however. Grow some balls (instead of tits) and address your audience directly. I mean that's what I'm trying to say-USF is never tourney viable because they don't have a mortar/good combined arms, but at the same time giving them access to that with current Rifles pushes them way over the top. (Hence nightmare.) I understand that the faction design is all about Rifles but pushing the viability of a faction to how well you micro one unit is not really strategy, it's 100% men of war micro kappa i see where your coming from though, we should play sometime.

Thread: Reworking muh Riflemen27 Jun 2016, 20:48 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2016, 20:36 PMPencilBatRation I agree that the Stuart is over performing (irrelevant of the recent bug) and needs some adjustments. The fact that you can only build rifls early game is a feature to me, how you use them, where you send each one and when you plan to finally yolo into your opponent, which upgrades to unlock first etc are the challenging factors and interesting elements when playing as USF. Moving the jeep into HQ (after OKW Pfaust gets fixed of course), would be a welcome change. T0 (T1 actually) MG or mortars would create another bland faction, while also undermining some of the core design elements. Agree to disagree then dude. I get what your saying about the faction uniqueness but it's a nightmare to balance and play against (look at Ost vs USF lol plus all the threads about rifle blobs.) plus Rifle play as a "faction feature" loses its luster once you get good with them To me the faction uniqueness is lightweight, mobile units that are versatile and good at harassment, so that could be reflected in T0 mortars and MGs hypothetically In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Reworking muh Riflemen27 Jun 2016, 20:27 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2016, 20:20 PMPencilBatRation They already require multiple upgrades to unleash their full potential. Currently sturms wreck them and only cost 20 MP more and grens snipe them while you are charging. They are only strong at flanking and when grouped. Accuracy and ROF nerfs make no sense. Early game rifles aren't really meant to charge unless there's Grens in the open or your flanking Any case a Rifle dps nerf early game means the USF could actually get variety in T0, buffed REs, a .30 cal LMG team, anything. And on requiring upgrades for full potential: most games where USF wins they swamp Axis early, meaning Bars and Zooks are never really needed because they take the map with Riflemen+captain and a light vehicle. It's pretty much to counter heavy Volks/fusilier builds/and allow infantry to blow up buildings and deter lights to some mediums And yeah, really I'm just bored as hell with the Amis as a faction In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Reworking muh Riflemen27 Jun 2016, 20:15 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2016, 20:11 PMPencilBatRation They are mostly fine. Their received accuracy needs some tweaks and swapping and that's it. Leave their role the same and nerf them USF becomes the worst faction (gj lelic) If there's ever going to be real, by the numbers balance (not like Ost prices being artificially deflated to give them support against teh Riflemen and M20) there has to be a re-thinking of the unit from direct combat to harassment with combat coming through abilities and upgrades, not raw stats In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Reworking muh Riflemen27 Jun 2016, 20:03 PM Imo OP elements of Axis factions (222, sniper, units performing effectively for their price) are necessitated because of the early riflemen>light vehicle snowball we all know and love. I don't feel like explaining the "why" behind my proposed changes, but here they are. Rifleman EBPS size value to .87 M1 Garand long range cooldown to 1.5, mid range to 1.25, close range to .5. (These are rof nerfs.) M1 Garand accuracy decrease by 10%. Riflemen EBPS cost to 52. "Smoke grenade" default ability; tie AT nade to frag tech. Make "Volley Fire" vet 1 ability; reduce received accuracy malus. Remove vet 3 received accuracy decreased, replace with LoS increase and passive healing. Vet 2 bonus changed to slight received accuracy decrease (.87 to .79) and passive sprint. Increase recieved suppression of Rifle squads to 1.15, making them easier to suppress. (Historically justified.) In: COH2 Balance
