Thread: Bofors needs a nerf against infantry12 Sep 2015, 02:36 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Sep 2015, 08:24 AMJadame! You can try it yourself. You can also try double mortarHTcs or isgs which rape all british emplacements even with permanent brace. But hell no, infantry should totally a-move into British emplacements just fine too, coz game is all about building blobs. The funniest thing about this thread is that it is all about needing a nerf for a 400mp unit that can't move and is hard countered by a moveable mortar that causes barely over half as much manpower, and no fuel. It clearly needed nerf because the a-move blob of shrek death couldn't reliably kill it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Cheap Team Weapons11 Sep 2015, 04:09 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Sep 2015, 03:56 AMWhySooSerious -4 manpower for reinforce or like the cost of getting the unit? if its the cost of getting a unit yeah thats a useless bulletin. It is supposed to be 5%, but it is 0 for MG, 4 for AT gun (1.5%), and 7 for pack howie (1.8%). At least we know that Americans aren't the only ones bad at math. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Cheap Team Weapons11 Sep 2015, 03:54 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Sep 2015, 03:25 AMMr. Someguy Well USF is manpower starved, so I'd assume anything that would help them in that department would be useful, if it worked. Considering that almost all of the bulletins are worthless, it would be worth trying. I've done a lot of testing with the bulletins to see if they matter much. In general, they don't. Stacking 3x penetration bulletins onto ZIS, it took 1 fewer shots, on average, to kill a KT. Considering that the number was 18 vs 19, you're not very likely to have it help in game, even on slow-moving KT. Stacking 3x reload bulletins on Jackson still didn't enable it to solo a PIV if they ran into each other in the fog of war. Stacking 3x of the cheaper Soviet mines could be helpful, but announcing your intentions like that just reminds people to buy a mine detector. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Cheap Team Weapons10 Sep 2015, 13:44 PM The USF bulletin that is supposed to give a 5% discount to AT guns, mg's, and pack howie gives a discount of 4 mp instead of 5%. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Should the USF AT gun recieve a buff?10 Sep 2015, 13:12 PM Make Take Aim a vet 0 ability, give it camo like the raketen, with a bonus to penetration from camo. The camo ability should be restricted to yellow and green cover, as should the camo ability from the raketen. It's inane to have an AT gun cross an open field in "camo". I do like Alex's suggestion to make the AP rounds free with a cooldown. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: USF so worthless7 Sep 2015, 01:43 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Sep 2015, 23:52 PM__deleted__ Anyone any idea when the new patch is going live? I'm getting pretty sick of outplaying someone in the early game and then feeling helpless and handicapped once the mid game arrives and the late game just finishes me off. When oh when will the preview patch go live? It is just unbearable right now, I can't even play non balance preview mod USf anymore, I rather dig out my eyeballs with a rusty spoon than experience this worthless faction design and horrible faction viability that just redefines the spectrum 'handicap'. I've been playing them a lot. They seem pretty decent in 1v1. I lost a bunch of games at the start of this patch but have gotten used to them. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Balance Preview Update 09/04/20157 Sep 2015, 01:35 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Sep 2015, 19:21 PMSahinK Tiger buff is welcomed... But now, will it have 45 to 50 Range on VET 2 or 45 to 55? Vet 0 45 range could be a good addition.... But 55 range after Vet 2 too much compared to other heavies... IS and KT should be looked at at this stage... A Tiger with 55 range and only 19 pop cap will be lousy for 1v1 balance, particularly against USF. It will wipe USF at guns and have little to worry about with Jacksons. P47's were already not that great, considering that all you had to do was reverse, but with the recent nerf to P47 range this isn't good. In: Lobby
Thread: USF with British Commanders6 Sep 2015, 23:10 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Sep 2015, 22:02 PMSpaceHamster How do you even duplicate this? I would like to know for... research purposes. Try switching factions while search is active, in this case, going from UKF to USF. Don't whine if you end up without any commanders. If that happens, call it a research in karma. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: USF with British Commanders6 Sep 2015, 18:27 PM I have something like that happen if I change faction during loading into game. Sometimes you end up with other faction, and sometimes you get no commanders. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Cruzz's The More You Know6 Sep 2015, 18:22 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Sep 2015, 15:58 PMG4bb4_G4nd4lf Yes, they stack. But they're multiplicative, not additive, so it is base1.051.05. Sometimes it's better, sometimes not. A +5% penetration bulletin on something with low penetration doesn't do much. If the chance to penetrate was low, like T34 with 80 penetration vs KT (roughly 25% chance of penetration), you could test for a long time to see the difference between 25% and 26.25%. On the other hand, the increased penetration bulletin for the JT is hilarious. In: COH2 Gameplay
