Thread: Gren spam into 222 27 Jun 2016, 10:14 AM Penals are great but like, if I want to use really good infantry early game and segway into lights to finish the deal I'll just switch to USF But they do eat Grens alive In: Red Army Strategies

Thread: Blobs of the past 27 Jun 2016, 10:09 AM Blobs are a thing for a lot of reasons. Notice that the only two factions that can not realistically blob are Sov and UKF, take a gander at where the issues lie. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF Blobs27 Jun 2016, 10:05 AM Building USF around the mobile DPS of their base infantry unit, it's ability to upgrade to weapons and pop smoke, and rapid teching with fast utility vehicles pretty much killed any chance at balance because both Axis factions are ridiculously one dimensional. Like USF now is so absurdly OP it's mildly ridiculous, there are exactly two viable Ost opening builds (sniper and grennn spaaammmm) into a desperation 222, with a MA Stug thrown in to keep you on life support. Against OKW the USF is literally forced to blob because playing wide past 4 minutes means the OKW can cluster his guys together and force retreats while capping; and when USF goes tight against OKW pre-Shwerer, the OKW gets raped by the mortar, buffed .50 cal that soft counters their vehicles, rifle blob, and Stuart/M20.

Thread: Gren spam into 222 27 Jun 2016, 09:14 AM How do I counter this as soviet Gren opening beat Cons openings because Grens cost more and have less utility, and the fast 222 seals the deal. Maxim play gets shut down by 222. Like as USF Stuart/Zooks/M2HB/smoke is the solution, but as Sov I have no idea. It makes no sense for 444 to hard counter a T70 or Su-76. And I'm by no means a bad player, like I'm sub 150 as USF (and that's with zero mortar usage because it's OP imo) and I really, really don't get how a Sov player counters gren spam (4) into 444.

Thread: Mortar Tech Tree Placement25 Jun 2016, 22:42 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2016, 19:52 PMPencilBatRation I can't see why grens aren't allowed to have 2 additional models and be built from the HQ for 280 MP either. Okay then increase RA to conscript level and have fun with that bleed, you'll build 2 Grens tops. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A USF Fanboy's Plea25 Jun 2016, 12:09 PM Analyzing the faction in a vacuum USF should have a good T0 indirect fire unit. It's balanced against OKW, the fact that it wrecks Ostheer is a product of Ost not being designed in a proper way. It is overperforming, though. IMO mortars should go: Ost 81mm-rof Sov 82mm-range/6 men USF 81mm-scatter/damage In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: USF didn't need a mortar.24 Jun 2016, 19:46 PM It makes sense for USF to have the best mortar but it's over performing. Accuracy nerf is needed. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 21st June Patch - Popular Commander Forecasting24 Jun 2016, 07:20 AM Jump back to quoted post24 Jun 2016, 06:43 AMOmega_Warrior Airborne isn't going to be replacing support or heavy cav anytime soon in the head of meta. Airborne is good and so is pathfinders, but the other abilities are real questionable, and why go for it when you rangers or LMG rifles can pretty much do the same as airborne. P47s have had several nerfs that in the past and has become unreliable. It never really makes up for it's cost anymore, especially in teamgames where multiple OKW flak HQs will likely end up shooting them down before they finish their run. To make it worse ostheer has pretty much the same ability that is better in every way. As for the paradrops, these abilities were so nice in Coh1 when they came with a crew so you could use them to quickly reinforce your front. In Coh2, all they are used for is a expensive way to skip tech. Either way you tech, atleast one of them is going to be useless. And if you do use it, it's still incredibly expensive and if you want to use it in the field you basically are just switching it with one of your on-field units. Not to mention you probably won't have the manpower anyway if you want to build airborne and pathfinders. So yeah, most people are going to choose the commanders that have 5 solid abilities that they can make full use of in a game instead of ones with just one or 2 good ones. Most the USF commanders other then the two new ones have something or other bad about them. Airborne is the best anti-OKW commander Figure LT is viable now, fast LT, airdrop AT gun in a pinch, Thompson paratroopers destroy Stg Grens, and Jackson + Scott combo is godly. 60 muni major arty+ smoke+ paratrooper demo charge wipes out Shwerer too. Basically I see Airborne as the fast rush commander against OKW. (Against Ost, I see that role taken by Armor company.) The most stable/safe commander choice as USF is probally rifle company though. Fire up, tear gas, and EZ8s are good in any situation. In: COH2 Gameplay
