Thread: Stats are in... Some obvious factions to address!27 Jan 2018, 05:01 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jan 2018, 21:26 PMSiphon X. Yes, but I'm actually not the biggest fan of these kind of stats because they don't actually measure what everybody intuitively thinks they measure, so they are bound to be misunderstood... Statisticians often exclude outliers when studying variables (factions in this case). Studying the win streaks of the top 10 is studying the outliers of the outliers. I'm not sure it really tells you anything beyond what faction some of the top players like to play. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Helping Hans deleted Coh2 cause of allie biased patch15 Jan 2018, 23:12 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Jan 2018, 13:48 PMLenny12346 I really fucking hope you are taking a piss on us, dood. Otherwise, you are exactly what is wrong with the community... Taking a piss on you? Is that possible over the internet? If it is, then I could be exactly what is wrong with this community. However, I'm pretty sure that I can't. Voltardark made a thread about how he was quitting in the last patch because of Axis bias. A lot of the members of this "community" showed up to make fun of him. Hans didn't like how one game went so now we're all supposed to freak out and demand an emergency patch because of Allied bias. Some of us don't take either thread seriously. In: Scrap Yard

Thread: Nerfing Indirect Fire11 Jan 2018, 01:41 AM Jump back to quoted post10 Jan 2018, 21:43 PMSkysTheLimit So don't place it there and defend your cutoff with units like everyone else? So tired of hearing that using the flak HQ for defending a main area of the map is part of OKWs "design". You know what else was a part of their design? No stock MGs. Well you get one now, and while it can't kill models for ****, its just fine at suppressing. Like of all the reasons to suggest indirect fire needs a rework, this is the last one I would point to. For me its how much infantry killing they do with little to no micro. I think auto-firing needs a little nerfing (across all factions mortars) to encourage manual barrages more, but the ability to destroy an aggressive flak HQ is the last thing I want to see nerfed. I'd like to see autofire eliminated and just having attack ground and barrage, with any special abilities such as smoke, HEAT, etc, tied to the barrage. I do wish they had nerfed the auto-attack range of the 120 to match the auto-attack of the ISG. In 4v4 randoms, I think I've lost the majority of the trucks that I've built outside the base, at least in competitive games. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: 2v2 gameplay post patch7 Jan 2018, 16:45 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Jan 2018, 15:44 PMLemonJuice kinda interesting how your suggestions just further make the factions more similar to each other True, but salvage doesn't make up for lack of caches, and buffing Stugs so that they're competitive in 4v4 would make them badly OP in 1's. RA doesn't help much when it comes to squad survivability in 4's so the only way to make Grens viable is to add a 5th (unless you want to make Osttruppen the standard infantry for 4v4's).

Thread: 2v2 gameplay post patch7 Jan 2018, 15:30 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Jan 2018, 11:25 AMButcher This patch effectively made me delete the Elefant and the JT from the standard loadout. So we got that going, right? Jäger Infanterie and Osttruppen doctrine have a nice flavour now. But other than that it's the usual Panzer IV rush for Ostheer. OKW isn't worth it lategame any longer. The 60 range tank destroyer superiority of the Allies has become more of a problem now that the Panther and JPIV and JT have been nerfed. The JT is still pretty good and the only thing that I've had be successful against the Firefly/SU85 combo on open maps. Since the patch, I've had a JT get to vet 5 with almost 40 kills total (only around 11 were vehicles). The HE barrage is useful against infantry, especially with so many players getting multiple Katys that it's hard to keep infantry on the field. My only criticism of the current patch would be that the factions are starting to feel too close to being similar. A OKW P4 seems about the same as a T34/85 or Easy8. The OKW JP4 doesn't seem to work any better than an SU85, and no caches makes sure that you have fewer of them. Late game does seem to be tipping to Allies. OST needs a 5th man upgrade for Grens (like UKF has) and a 60-range TD. OKW needs to be able to build caches, and the ISG should be made competitive with the 120mm (or the 120 nerfed).

Thread: It is time for the OH MG bunker to cost popcap7 Jan 2018, 07:52 AM Are Ost bunkers really an issue? I usually play allies and will carelessly YOLO into one every once in awhile but they're really not a big deal. They go down almost as fast as fighting pits If Ost needs any changes, it would be an upgrade to 5 man squads for grens so they could survive indirect fire better. In: COH2 Balance
