Thread: CAS needs adjusted6 Apr 2015, 08:22 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Apr 2015, 07:24 AMQueenRatchet123 Plz enlighten me oh great master How do i dodge a strafe coming from the edge of the map? Spread infantry? PLEASE Dont make me show u a replay where its AOE is greater than u think it is... As for heavy tanks doing the AT strafe.. It is literately impossible, good luck getting an ISU or IS2 out of its strafe. As for usf vehicles. It kills all in one pass except sherman, new m10, and bulldozer sherman. Again from the edge of the map. is certain death. I answered to what you were laughing about. Dodging offmaps it's another thing and it can be done in 2 ways: prevention and reaction. Study these words and see what you can understand from them (if anything at all). Your soviet heavies are having problems with AT strafe? WHy, because it takes maybe 30% of their health? Yep, that's a problem allright. Sorry you cannot steamroll everything with your IS2s and remain untouched. You should try a little the Fat Panzer IV aka Tiger and see how it feels these days, then comeback to your beloved IS2 and feel gratefull. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: PTRS now OP?6 Apr 2015, 07:15 AM PTRS was mistakenly changed because it doesn't serve its purpose now. Fix: Step one - reset PTRS to initial prepatch values Step two - increse PTRS penetration value Step 3 - Done. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: CAS needs adjusted6 Apr 2015, 06:59 AM Countering CAS in 1v1 or 2v2s it's an L2P issue as it was said before. Never used it in 3v3 but I can't imagine why it's so "OP" on 3v3 or higher. First, this doctrine works best on narrow / small / medium maps. Why? Because used properly and according to its purpose, you will build almost only infantry, and we're talking about Ostheer. Which means no forward retreat point, so you are allways in danger to lose positions/territory after general retreats. That's a weakness. You can't be to responsive in supporting your partner with troops because you are not so mobile (lack of / to few vehicles). The air strikes need thinking and positioning because they are not like in other dotrines. They are maybe cheaper but need control when called. The most powerfull of them will be available just in late game. One of them is countering blobs. Is that a bad thing? Or the only ones that should be alowed to blob are the Allied? You don't want your blob get pinned by an air strike? Split it, and you will still have infantry on the field. So, coming back to the long ostheer infantry walks around the map which are a disadvantage starting from 2v2, I can't realy understand why this CAS is a problem for 3v3s or 4v4s. With what can you support your mates besides air stikes? All of them dodgeable? If I can't reach a point with my ground units when needed, I might as well not reaching it at all. I don't think CAS is OP. It has its downsides while offering to player a very different and imaginative playstyle. In: COH2 Gameplay

Yes it's a great doctrine with very usefull abilities except for that nurfed IR STG carried by those nurfed Obers (remember?). That doesn't sound so attractive anymore. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Over nerfed Obers3 Apr 2015, 13:28 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Apr 2015, 13:22 PMThe Silver Sage 1st of all if you know how smokes work you just pack up that mg42 and move back, people who do that have not much trouble with shocks as I have seen on both sides. 2nd where was I impolite? I said shock troops are stupid enough to brin a knife not you. 3rd shocks only come in a doctrine unlike Obers so if we are switching obers for shocks of course they will go in that doctrine, and shocks are in the doctrine with IS2 so yes please give me doctrine with shocks and is2. You didn't think your argument through. I still didn't see shocks having troubles when trying to get in close fights. Not even when I use them (and I'm not top 100 or somethin'). But anyway.... thanks for the accepted trade, at least you gave an answer and an explanation, didn't you? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Over nerfed Obers3 Apr 2015, 13:19 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Apr 2015, 12:26 PMThe Silver Sage JohnnyB do you play as Soviets? Because if you did you would know Shocks are stupid enough to bring a knife to a gun fight. They have to be close enough to stab you to do damage, all you have to do is suppress them and they are useless. Now if I would chose to be impolite as you were, I would probably asking you the same thing, because if you play as soviets you should know they have the smoke grenade, just for the reason you stated. They have smoke, they are fast and durable. They need to close in to be effective and they do it without to much truble. And I didn't mention any doctrine. I was just making a point. But it's full of smart guys around here that want to emphasize everything that can contradict you, so what is the point in making a point anyway? In: COH2 Balance
