Thread: Demos for axis24 Apr 2015, 05:10 AM Jump back to quoted post24 Apr 2015, 04:22 AMSwitzerland So you're going to promote a copy paste bunker for the Soviets then Alex? this inst a Nerf of a buff its adding something to another faction that was designed to have defenses, and the Russians got the bombs to blow them up. So if you want Maxim Bunkers with he same fan as the Axis bunker to get an equal damage demo, bobs your uncle ill jump on that. But you'll find some argument that it doesn't work at way anyway. You want a free toy, like your Cache suggestion of OKW, no penalties for a buff, your logic is not RTS logic. I can see OST with demo if Sovs get bunkers, OKW does not need Demos with the mighty Stuka and Sturm around. Except that 1. Soviets have a plethora of indirect fire to deal with bunkers, Ostheer and OKW don't doesn't. 2. Soviets don't need bunkers 3. Demos are not bunkers, one costs manpower and munitions, the other costs just munitions The stuka isn't a blob counter, it's a support weapon counter. For killing moving enemy infantry it's an utter waste of time thanks to the long barrage cool down and how easy it is to avoid. The best blob counter OKW has, but at an insane 242 fuel is the Sturmtiger (adjusting for the reduced income) it's a very hard sell considering how much you need that fuel to put into a Panther or JPIV to deal with enemy armor. The point of giving the demo to everyone is to make it more fair, but as LeYawn pointed out demo's are super easy to use and a pain in the ass to get rid of while negating the unit preservation dynamic Relic desires so it might just be prudent to remove them from the game. Allies blob just as much as Axis does, both should have equal tools to deal with it; problem is that almost all the tools are sitting with Soviets. In: COH2 Gameplay

Oh wait that's insane, demo's should be given to every faction because more blob counters are good. Or do you think Allies can't blob? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: A letter to Relic COH2 Game balance team24 Apr 2015, 00:02 AM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 22:39 PMKatitof No, it wasn't. You have Kubel for that. The Kubel is directly countered by the things that counter Sturms. It greatly reduces your capping power as well due to OKW's lower starting MP. Not to mention the Kubels horrible pathing. If you want to win as OKW you need to micro way, way harder early game than the rest of the factions. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: American Base howitzer23 Apr 2015, 23:58 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 22:48 PMOmega_Warrior Not all indirect options provide the same role. There are attrition based indirect like mortars who's role is to bleed players as they attempt to attack or provide light anti support weapon support for your attacks. Then there are barrage type weapons who's roles to break up larger defensive formations and punish blobs. Okw has both types in their no doctrinal lineup. i would like to see them get more through commanders but it is by no means necessary as both will fulfill their roles without need of a doctrine. Unlike USF who has two attrition types and MUST choose a doctrine if they want a real barrage type indirect weapon. The support guns both need to be fired directly into enemy lines like a ZiS gun to be useful, they really aren't able to be classified as a indirect fire unit leaving OKW with only 1 option, the stuka. The thing is nobody on these forums seems to pay any attention to the fuel disability which makes the Stuka absurdly expensive and basically the largest non-direct fire unit investment in the game. Your right USF needs to take a doctrine, but Infantry is by far not a bad one. And with OKW to get the LeiG and Stuka you need to get t1 and t2 while the mortar HT and priest are both call in's and can be pop-cap abused. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Demos for axis23 Apr 2015, 23:54 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 22:25 PMKatitof Together with non doc weapon upgrades for soviets and heavy tanks for USF? Every army lacks something. If you believe one aspect to be unfair because X army doesn't have it, then no reason exists why other armies can't have what X army have and they don't. Considering that nothing is unique to any of the armies be it squad sizes or units I don't really see how this argument is applicable anymore. USF doesn't have heavies because it goes against the singular design of the faction, same reason OKW doesn't get mediums. Are both ides retarded? Yes, but it's the world we live in. Demo's are just very easy to use and offer extremely high reward, and considering how big a problem blobs are I think everyone should be in favor of more tools being given to the factions to reduce it. Why not give JLI demo's instead of booby trap? The whole doctrine revolves around using munitions, so why not demos? EDIT: Obviously pio's should get demo's or Ost. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: American Base howitzer23 Apr 2015, 22:17 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 22:09 PMOmega_Warrior You always have to find some way to make every thread into a buff OKW thread don't you? Not really, just pointing our the fact USF actually does have some options for indirect fire they don't need to pay 151 fuel for. Both WFA factions are skimpy on indirect fire tbh. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: A letter to Relic COH2 Game balance team23 Apr 2015, 22:14 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 21:11 PMdasheepeh yes pls, okw truck sitting in allied base giving no fucks for atleast 6 minutes anyone? HMG fire could still hurt it, but it dying to small arms like Mosins and whatnot is dumb considering the fact it's a huge well armored half track. Still, would be much easier just to give it back it's original stats and make it a 200 MP call in and shave the MP cost off the building itself. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: assault engineers23 Apr 2015, 22:09 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Apr 2015, 19:05 PM__deleted__ The better your opponent, the less the impact/cost-efficiency of PGrens, believe me, not to mention its a 340 mp investment that goes down to AOE just as easily as any Gren squad. Anyways, whats it with Urban PGren squads, never heard about that? Urban Pgrens have more armor than most scout cars do. The doctrine was never released because I guess Relic didn't want to put in the effort to adjust the armor value. Unit which can get easily 30-40kills with good micro and without upgrades is lackluster... And let's wait for this 5 men Urban PzGrens squad with 3 STGs and 2 Flamers 4 men AssaultEngi won't be considered as good enough. That's the thing tho, you need to micro them hard and baby sit them while you don't need to do that for an additional gren squad or two. The Sturmtiger is literally one of the best units in the game and nobody uses it because the micro you need for it makes any other unit look small time. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: American Base howitzer23 Apr 2015, 22:05 PM Okay, can OKW have a howitzer to because currently it has 1 indirect fire unit. Versus the Mortar HT and Priest. The infantry support howitzers/field guns are made to be used like the ZiS barrage, fired directly into enemy armies, not used for indirect fire support like mortars. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: A letter to Relic COH2 Game balance team23 Apr 2015, 17:30 PM OKW have the weakest early game now by a long shot now that Ostheer T1 is much more powerful. Ostheer is also much easier to play considering you have all the tools you need to deal with enemy units without having to blob up. Things OKW needs: 1. Reliable/Real AT gun (the Rackten is still trash due to it's extremely poor survivability combined with low range) 2. A cheap piece of medium armor to bridge the gap between light vehicles and heavy tanks. 3. Some sort of MP dump to stop the insane MP float thanks to not being able to spend it on tanks or support weapons. 4. More support weapons. One good Idea Iv heard is give the MG34 much higher damage while keeping it's ROF and accuracy lower than the 42's and swapping the Kubel with it. In: COH2 Balance
