Thread: Patch notes for 23rd June17 Jun 2015, 22:27 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jun 2015, 22:26 PMOmega_Warrior From Cynthia in the official forums: "This patch is not intended to be everything that's in the Alpha - there is more coming. Jason's team wants to roll certain things out in phases, and this also gives us the opportunity to do more testing to further refine things. Glad that you are stoked about what you encountered in the Alpha More is coming. The team is taking a methodical and measured approach with this.

Those Stug G buffs are damned good. Without a range increase the StuG G will still suffer from being easily countered by 1 AT gun. It's a LOT better than it was before, but most people will still always got for the option of a PIV with how prevalent allied infantry spam is and the superior scaling of the PIV. In: Lobby
Thread: Patch notes for 23rd June17 Jun 2015, 22:17 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jun 2015, 22:03 PMCieZ Guards already lose to lmg grens. Now the mg34 can suppress them. Plus they won't destroy hmg squads now. LMG grens beat guards at max range, anything under and guards will pretty handily beat you. At max range in green cover guards will win. The HMG 34 change is very welcome however. EDIT: They didn't include that change, ah. my mistake! In: Lobby

I think more people are angry that call in meta didn't get fixed for mediums, and all allied call in's revolve around mediums rather than heavies like Axis do. double standards essentially. In: Lobby
Thread: Patch notes for 23rd June17 Jun 2015, 21:51 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jun 2015, 21:48 PMCabreza Guard motor was hardly nerfed. Sure the 120mm lost damage but that is not why anyone goes guard motor. Even with the nerf it still retains better squad wipe potential than the 82mm and now is cheaper to field. Beyond that guards will drop their weapons a lot less often and all of the T34/85 CP requirements remain unchanged while Guard motor's main competitor, Shock Rifle, is limited to a single IS2 on the field at any one time. Don't forget about mark vehicle! But yeah I don't see really any reason for Soviet players do go anything outside of Guard Motor. In: Lobby

The buffed guards by making them not drop their weapons every 5 seconds. Much butthurt form axis players it seems. Makes for a good laugh There wasn't a single Axis nerf other than the Tiger I being limited to 1 so....... In: Lobby

Kappa JP4 speed = 5.5 SU85 = 5.7 but the JP4 is better because basically all allied armor can be penned by JP4 Keepo It's actually 10 more for the SU-85 at far, and it has 1 second better reload. The SU-85 will have many more non-heavy target for it to chew on soon enough Kappa In: COH2 Balance
Thread: WHEN they will nerf Jagpanzer17 Jun 2015, 17:17 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jun 2015, 17:10 PM__deleted__ Nah Alex, you're mistaken here. Actually, KT (and Tiger)/IS-2 are exactly two units JP IV and SU 85 respectively are strong vs, for the simple reason that they have a range advantage, and KT/IS-2 are not fast enough to reliably close in. Sure, you'll get alot of bounces, but their role is not so much to get in and kill the heavies (à la M10)but to contain them from range, accumulate vet, and keep their impact limited. Yeah once they get Vet they can really start to mess shit up but normally the most scary stuff will be what's backing the KT + IS2 up that can make you pull back. I never send my IS2's up without ZiS gun support which can scare a JPIV away, and well Racktens can work to support KT's to sometimes My point was more that asking the most basic TD's to pen expensive super heavies reliably is a bit much.

Thread: WHEN they will nerf Jagpanzer17 Jun 2015, 16:58 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jun 2015, 16:50 PMKatitof SU-85 fights tanks that actually have armor and number of units it can bounce of is greater then two. Gun traverse means shit when you are not using AT gun or turreted tank. Neither of them is a chasing or escaping unit, so acceleration means nothing. Meanwhile, JP4 faces much weaker at and have incomparably greater armor and scaling then SU-85. ~the more you know~ The SU-85 isn't great against KT's, JPIV isn't very good against IS2's. Shockingly these very similar units that fulfill similar rolls are similar with the JPIV's gimmick being it very easy to preserve due to low target size and good armor, and the SU-85 having insanely good DPS. And by "gun traverse" I meant the SU-85 can turn it's forward facing gun in a larger arc meaning it's not forced to rotate like the JPIV constantly is. The SU-85's scaling is extremely good, it's ROF bonus's make it a beast at Vet 2 and 3 allowing it to put out insanely huge amounts of damage due to the fact the ROF allows you to easily put enough shots down range that even the KT will need to think twice. SU-85: SU-85 Medium Tank Destroyer Unlocks the 'Tracking' ability -30% reload, +30% accuracy -20% reload, +20% rotation speed, +20% speed, +20% ac/de-celeration JPIV: Unlocks the 'Cautious Movement' ability +10% armour, +25% HP, +35% sight range +20% rotation speed, +20% speed, -10% reload -25% reload, +30% accuracy For first shot fired out of camouflage +150% damage & +150% accuracy & +150% penetration SU-85 = 50 fuel + 120 X2 jp4 = 40 fuel + 135 try again The first tiers for Soviets and OKW are free so it's more; 120 + 120 versus 135/.66 120 + 120 = 240 135/.66 = 204 In: COH2 Balance
