Thread: Heavy Tank Limit6 Jul 2015, 18:53 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Jul 2015, 18:48 PMKatitof Because medium tank at 8-9 minute is such AWESOME idea. Why won't we put sherman to LT tier and T34 to T2 as well? Rushed shermans are a thing that already exists. I agree that Elite armor is garbage, but OKW does have a medium, the Panther, it's just that it is a really expensive medium given the fuel penalty. It doesn't matter much in a 3 or 4 but in a 1v1 it means that it comes really late, and you always have to chose between JP4 (or Puma if you went mechanized) or being vulnerable for a long time if you're waiting to build Schwerer and Panther. That's the issue, OKW has a huuuuuge gap in it's mid game thanks to 1 tier being nothing but light vehicles that start dropping off in usefulness when AT guns hit the field en mass and the other doesn't offer good AI options. The Panther really isn't a generalist medium, it's a heavy tank with some sprinkled on AI for all intensive purposes. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: CAS Axis cmrd is by far the best cmdr for team games (3vs3+)6 Jul 2015, 18:48 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Jul 2015, 18:22 PMGrumpy I agree that it should be passive, but think it should work like the OKW fuel/muni exchange (1 lost fp gets 2 muni's at most, maybe less). If it was just a percentage of the total, some of us would build nothing but ammo caches and get a big increase in ammo for only a small decrease in fuel and it would probably still be OP. The stuka dive bomb needs to not work on on-map arty. Even just removing the recon would just mean that another player would have to have recon. Conversion and OKW's reduced income works based on percentages, which is how I got the idea. And Stuka Dive Bomb absolutely has to work on on-map artillery, it's the only real counter to it due to the ability to construct it in base sectors. Stuka bombing strike is fine, it has a loud sound cue and requires the other play to move. Abilities like this are good because they encourage better micro. When this becomes problematic is when paired with an extremely efficient conversion like CAS has. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW troopers getting stuck6 Jul 2015, 17:59 PM The Battlegroup HQ should be garrisonable (not able to be fired out of tho mind you) so if a unit gets stuck behind it they can hop in and hope out on the other side. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Landwehr mortar team Smoke6 Jul 2015, 17:58 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Jun 2015, 07:53 AMAerohank Officer smoke barrage and Mortar half track smoke barrage are also available to the Wehrmacht. The Mortar HT smoke is the same as the Ost one and is equally bugged. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: CAS Axis cmrd is by far the best cmdr for team games (3vs3+)6 Jul 2015, 17:57 PM Okay; so here is a couple of things that could be changed: - Pin strafe becoming a AI + suppression strafe meaning it can damage and suppress infantry (for 80 munitions) instead of just pinning them. This would make it similar to the IL-2 AI strafe - Conversion becoming PASSIVE, this means like Soviet Industry at 3 CP you are locked into getting less fuel for more munitions so you can't just back out and still make tanks. Nope you are now limited on fuel and you BETTER make good use of those strafes - AT strafe doing less damage but over a wider area: So while it won't 1 shot multiple mediums it will damage a horde of tanks the opponent is refusing to move because he doesn't want to micro his shit - Stuka bomb strike isn't an issue (it's on a LOT of commanders), personally I think howitzers should be able to move but that's just me. Really the most problematic thing is the conversion, after/if that's fixed the rest could follow as tweaks. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Heavy Tank Limit6 Jul 2015, 17:43 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Jul 2015, 17:35 PMRocket I often wonder why more OKW players don't use the medium tank commander? Does not seem like a terrible one. If they gave you a medium tank Alex it would just be more burning panzers and food for my shermans kappa. Elite Armored is garbage for a bunch of reasons; -Emergency repair is bugged and can cause your tank to get decrewed every time it takes damage -HEAT shells are the wrong type of shell and are easy to avoid -PIV Ausf J's are just worse PIV's for almost the cost of a KT anyway. (At 210 for two they are 105 each but with the fuel penalty cost as much as an Ost PIV anyway). Also nobody wants 2 PIV's at 9 CP -Panzer Commander is expensive and doesn't really do much other than look cool and call in extremely slow artillery barrages. In: COH2 Balance

I swear to god every day it's a never ending stream of non-committal melt down posts about how [insert x] is the worst/best thing ever with absolutely 0 ideas how to make it better or worse.

Thread: CAS Axis cmrd is by far the best cmdr for team games (3vs3+)6 Jul 2015, 15:25 PM Howitzers being able to slowly move is a good idea outside of making them able ( if your paying attention) to avoid bombing strikes In: COH2 Balance

Thread: CAS Pin Strafe + Recon + Stuka Dive Bomb in Base6 Jul 2015, 12:41 PM Why not just make it so howitzers can slowly move. Enough so that if you notice a bomb coming in you can move? In: COH2 Balance
