Thread: Tech test Design feedback2 Feb 2023, 10:45 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Feb 2023, 11:05 AMPatFenis I may step out of line here, BUT to already worry about the recovery vehicles is kind of insane to me. Given how the game pace, time of the recovery and the attached costs made it quite burdensome for it to come into play to begin with (in online play). Obviously the sample size of games due to the limited play test is way to small anyway. Even on top of that to compare it with the coh1 shenanigans of the bergetiger is crazy. The recovery vehicles are not a tiger tank with a crane on top anymore. As far as i have seen, they are quite squishy trucks in coh3. The biggest problem is that it punishes you for making good plays. Trading for example a greyhound/8rad for 1-2 squads probably isnt worth it anymore (especially vs dak since its.............nondoc XD ). Base diving practically cannot be done unless you are ending the game or 100% know your opponent cannot recover your vehicles. Whats even more ludicrous is the fact that only TWO of the four factions actually have it. So DAK can dive brits no problems, but god forbid if you try to counter dive. Edit: Not to mention its already plenty fucking strong, it gets combat repairs. so you have to target it with AT (meaning its basically tanking damage for your tanks, which is an incredibly good thing and puts you ahead in trades) or they have to do far more damage while you cycle in tanks while pressuring, and since your opponent (if they are wehr) dont get anything like that, they inevitably fall behind in the trading and eventually lose. I did this vs cataclaw with great success. In: COH3 Central

If you struggle against forward reinforcing, that means you did whooping jack at adapting to situation you did not expected to encounter. Skill issue. But then again, what isn't with this OP. Not true at all lmao. 2x mg loses to a head on charge of permanently reinforcing sections ( that are more cost effective if you stack volunteer+reinforce discount.) In: COH3 Central

Thread: Auto reinforce 24 Jan 2023, 14:50 PM IMO, auto reinforce for top players will be more of a hindrance anyway, but itll come down to if the manpower is as important as it is in coh2 currently. If its anything like coh1/how it currently is (for everyone but DAK p much) then its just an autopick. In coh2 optimizing what you reinforce and when and choosing which unit is hitting the field (say a 20% squad at 3/4 models, vs 2/4 at 50%) is what gives it depth in having choice, there's a LOT of nuance to the choice that isn't obvious at a glance.

Thread: Biggest Balance Issues so far.20 Jan 2023, 15:03 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jan 2023, 00:22 AMdonofsandiego I disagree. The call ins were very powerful, cheap, and came out quickly when you had fully upgraded them (the upgrades were actually quite a bit cheaper than the infantry/mech support center upgrades iirc. I made a post elsewhere but the double P47 strafe for 40 muni (upgraded) basically instakills MGs if they don't immediately move, double P47 bombing run for 60 muni levels any house and destroys defensive positions. Enemy can counter P47 bombing run with AA but the strafe is much harder and almost guarantees a decrew on any heavy teamweapon as long as it comes from the shortest distance. It's definitely hard to beat the 76mm shermans, but with air support helping to dislodge enemy teamweapons and protect points, it's definitely not way overshadowed. Agreed, all the centers felt useful and strong, though i think mechs may need a bit of tuning, iirc half the upgrades didnt feel all the useful aside from the armor upgrade. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Biggest Balance Issues so far.19 Jan 2023, 17:28 PM The biggest issue is the TTK imo. Too forgiving of what is normally outright stupid moves such as sending a lone squad to a corner of the map alone In: COH3 Central
Thread: CoH3 faster VP tick rate16 Jan 2023, 18:03 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Jan 2023, 17:55 PMSquishyMuffin Yes this, well said. You'd be someone that'd know; are there even ideal capping orders in COH3 maps? From my relative time with it, it's just cap all the points on your side of the halfway point in whatever order you want until you reach the vp. Or rush the vp. The maps are weird, twin beaches is the most interesting one, you have multiple approaches there since the resource spread is relatively equal (You can attack south, and get a decent postion with lighthouse, but lose out on muni advantage, or go north, which while far better to hold, is far worse for support weapons) Road to tunisia is just a lesson in old coh2 maps, think back to the OG faymonville, with the super mansion in center that gives you an overwhelming advantage. Munis are in corners of the map (with it feeling even worse since full HP squads are only really punishiable with OP light vehicles like 8-rad or greyhound) I'll probably make a map review/feedback thing, eventually if i get antsy enough.

Thread: CoH3 faster VP tick rate16 Jan 2023, 17:31 PM I'm really not a fan, in coh2 you can choose between prioritizing resources of VPS (especially important in tournaments) here its. "Rush VP now!!" otherwise you end up 3 min into the game and have lost already like 50-100 vps, which is even more bizaree given how ridicolous the resource placement are on these maps (4 corner munis on tunisia, am i just not meant to take those resources at all lol?)
