The days of coh1 ranger blobs are back with a vengeance. Now rush The huns with the might of heroes backed up by the american warmachine's newest nazi dream crusher
May Kapparino guide you to victory, KNOW USF IS OP!
So help me if they give them "fire up" or something akin to that I'm quitting playing Axis all together. The vCOH rangers were already great but with the LOL@suppression fire up, they were game breaking at Vet 2 & 3. |
Dunno if this have been posted here already but
Pershing commander
Smoke barrage = Saturate target area with Smoke M89 shells to disrupt sight-lines. (Uses the scott smoke barrage)
Rangers = Rangers can be deployed to the battlefield. Effective at medium range vs infantry. Click and select location to deploy.
Rangers are a highly trained elite unit that specializes in marksmanship, demolitions and fieldcraft.
Combined arms = Improves the performance of units based on their proximity to a vehicle or infantry squad.
Nearby infantry and vehicles coordinate to improve the effectiveness of one another.
What is a Scott? J/K, but I never see it anymore in any game mode now that Pak Howitzers are such beasts. Yesterday in a 2v2 with a fellow clan mate, my ally kept 2 Pak Howies alive most the game with a couple recrews due to stuka zu fuss and he accumulated 12k infantry damage. It was 55 minutes long, but it illustrates just how good Pak Howie is. |
Because this is a small game compared to some of the heavy hitting titles they could probably escape notice as this isn't a casual gamer title. But the Gamer Gate fiasco has brought Social Justice Warriors out in full force to try to police all manners of games and there is no room with them for higher order thought or nuance; it's all black and white so their conclusion would probably be along lines of: Ermagerd! Relic thinks blacks are only good for being builders and repair men....it's just like slavery!
Historical accuracy won't matter one bit. |
Black troops played a significant role in the Ardennes and I would be proud to see them represented in COH2. Maybe as some of the
tank crews,
infantry,
Artillery or in support of Airborne.
Even if it was just the Rear Echelon it would still be SOME representation of these brave men's contribution to the war. If trolls want to make racist remarks about them in-game... well they make racist remarks regardless so I don't really see the issue.
good point...i try to always type GG HF at beginning of every game and am often greeted with Sig Heil, Heil Hitler, etc when I am vs Axis (caveat: almost always this is in big team games...1v1 opponents are not a problem so basically the trolls reside in big team games). |
Great work...E-Sports here we come! |
Several of us play tanks as well. Currently I'm up to 5.7 German and 5.0 American aND im fairly low compared to some. For planes a few of us go up to jets but most go up to 5.3 or thereabouts.
YOu talking about WOT? I have played a few matches and liked it on XBOX but I am leary of Freemium games because I feel i will be at a disadvantage to those who will pay for premo items....what's the scoop? |
Mechanised Assault commander and Ostruppen are obvious commanders but I also think Mobile Defense can work if you can make it to 3CP and start fielding vetted Ostruppen infantry. Puma would be a nice mix to add to Pio/Ost/PG fighting front line force. May have to give it a try. |
It worked. You have to sign up "in game" though and not on the forum.
same deal for OKW defensive community commander? what u mean in game sign up? |
It has no role because meta isn't M3/M20/Dodge/UC spam/rush anymore. Its sole purpose is to counter light vehicle start and to give vision with its vet. Axis players want to buff it by lazyness, having a unit that counter early inf + early vehicles for a really small price because they don't micro their squads.
Ironically, the free upgrade killed even more the meta it belong to since nobody is going to spend fuel on a M3/M20/Dodge to be automatically counter by a brainless 221 coming 3 minutes later.
You want an early AI vehicle, build a 251 + flammer upgrade, or whine better/stronger/harder to have the upgrade for free like you did with the 221.
Better players still rush M20 a lot. Every OCF game as USF, DEVM went 3R into Lt. Then 4:20-40 M20. He did that every game and it worked very well. Most of this was against Ostheer opponents also. |
it was later counter, that hindered early game mines, grenades and lmg. Now it doesnt. All of that are pretty strong even OP.
can you show some games of top 100 players when SU 76 survived at least after 10 CP and was at least vet 2. If you say its playable.
I think you wont find single game cuz SU 76 gets countered right after arrival - any of ATG, AT infantry, P4 means no su76 can be effective.
I have just started playing again after week off due to moving houses but I went on an 8 game win streak early this month with soviets and in every game I was building 2x SU-76's and 1-2 KV-8's. 76's are fast which partially negates disadvantage of no turret, they are cheap and fast to get out tech wise, they can penetrate even Panthers reliably and their barrage is great when facing static positions so long as you don't expect too snipe units at maximum range (but hey it's free). Every game I got at least one if not both to Vet 3. Sherman bug fix made the files irrelevant but I will go play soon this week some 1v1 and show you what I mean. I absolutely love the SU-76. |
