The solution in (2) can be given by the worst CoH2-player in the history of the game, and still be correct. You don't need to be a good player to solve a problem. The playercard argument should not be used at all from anyone (it creates hostility, turn a balance debate into personal issue and as you say even a bad player can solve (or identify) a problem). Since nearly all units can be countered but all units are not balanced, an argument that there is a counter to something so it does not need balance changes hold little water... In this example countering 280 mp 30FU emplacement with 2 volks 2 shrecks 2 puppen (1040 mp 180 MU) is not much of argument either because the same proposed counter accomplice very little if it was support with lest say an HMG...

Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 13:25 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Jan 2016, 12:19 PMJohnSmith Edit: Argh, you keep editing your posts, without clearly underline what has been edited, to make my replies look different. No I do not try to make your replies look different, pls stop getting personal... The problems as I have explained to quite clearly actually are: Bypass of Upkeep and pop cap of support units.. Transfer of commander unique artillery units across player and factions... The changes, I have proposed, fixes the problems, with no side-affects in balance, so even if the issues are not "serious", there is no reason not to fix them. You can find Calliope transfer already in the replays sections in 4vs4 game... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 12:17 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Jan 2016, 11:55 AMJohnSmith No, Pershing has had its crew disembark feature removed as a quick implementation for Relic to limit Heavies to one per player. and avoid transfer to other players... Jump back to quoted post11 Jan 2016, 11:55 AMJohnSmith A player leaving their crew next to the priests/callis as a mean to bypass upkeeps just begs the opponent to kill the crew and take over the tanks themselves. If Cali or Priest disembarks anyway near the frontline and get stolen that is clearly a L2P issue Upkeep and Pop cap are means of reducing the number of on-map artillery and Cali and Priest currently bypass the mechanism with little or no actual counter-play/danger. Furthermore you have not presented a single reason how such a change would upset balance or game-play and thus a reason for you to object it... Jump back to quoted post11 Jan 2016, 11:55 AMJohnSmith ...which reminds me of you attempting to define the in-game term "fortification" recently. PLS try to avoid going personal, and I did not attempted to define "fortification". The term is used by Relic and thus it is defined by them... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 11:45 AM ... And yes, L2P is a reason for NOT having balance changes. If an opponent goes full artillery and full anti-infantry, going more infantry is a bad decision, and clearly shows a L2P problem. The problem with Priest and Calliope having crew is that one can have them without paying the upkeep for them... Being able to transfer doctrinal units at will is an issue because it breaks the commander concept. It is one of the reasons Pershing does not not disembark ability... No L2P is NOT a reason enough to stop a balance changes that improves game play...USF medic truck for instance was more efficient than any other heal available with it heal aura and medic crew so if someone L2P with it there was little reason for a balance change..

Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 11:25 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Jan 2016, 11:08 AMJohnSmith The person gets more than 2 Priests and/or more than 2 Calliopes in a game, and transfers them to other players (140 fuel), whilst the opponent is not getting any hard AT or any attempt to counter, is clearly fighting against someone who may have to L2P In-game, people seem to forget as well that the Calliope has NO functioning main gun. I can't counter any tanks on its own. L2P is not reason for not going ahead with the a change that does not affect balance and fixes other issues...Transferring priest/calliopes is very easy to do in 4vs4 or 3vs3 games. Calliope does not have a main gun and the same most other on map artillery piece do not have either... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 11:05 AM Calliope and Priest should be limited to 2 and no disembark... Limit to will make these units that require no tech to be less spam-able. No disembark will mean that getting the crew out to limit upkeep and transfer to other players will also be longer possible.

UKF emplacement can be very tough in large game especially if combined with the Engineer commander. That is why I have made 2 suggestion: reduce damage vs retreating infantry... Have late game specialized anti emplacement unit... http://www.coh2.org/topic/46989/heavy-assault-guns-vs-fortifications http://www.coh2.org/topic/46778/ukf-aa-emplacement-and-retreating-squads In: COH2 Balance

On the other hand better check your stat before posting some of your claims are inaccurate... In: COH2 Balance
