That or the patch after it. Someone lock this thread please. So your just going to give up any attempt at discussion lol. Ostheer is a 3 legged stool, nerfing the StuG E is taking out one of the legs. In: COH2 Balance

IS-2 would change, but frankly the ways to deal with IS2's are a different issue that wouldn't change much. American tanks already get penetrated by a strong breeze at any angle. Who cares about the T-70 and the stuart. Where, exactly, is the problem being introduced here? T34/76 would get penned by StuG G every shot, StuG E would have a fair chance to pen most allied mediums. KV1 would die to a PIV Ausf J every time, T34/85's would die to a PIV/StuG every time. All American tanks would have 0% chance to bounce basically any Axis hits, as opposed to having the ability to occasionally shrug off shots from StuG G's and PIV's. T-70 and Stuart would die to small arms fire, the American open top TD's would die to small arms fire. The only boost Allies would get is that the IS2 could pen any tank in the game, that's about it. EDIT: So yeah if you want every game to be StuG spam than I guess it's a good idea. In: Scrap Yard
Thread: ostheer CAS overperforming.8 Mar 2015, 13:32 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Mar 2015, 13:28 PMBurts It comes very early, and with any other doctrine, stalling for callins has one major weakness, you have nothing until the heavy hits the field. With this doctrine, you save an insane amount of fuel and can get a tiger in time, while having good mid game as well. The stug E constantly oneshots and two shots squads, it will often win vs a USF at gun in 1v1 and it completely fucks up the mid game. 2x PaKs played accordingly can keep out any medium tank. It's like getting a better t-70 without paying the 120 fuel cost for teching up. So your rational is that because it isn't overpriced and can with some luck kill an AT gun means it's overpowered? And at 6 CP that isn't early, that's just slightly before most mediums will start hitting the field. It (rarely) oneshot squads yes, but this goes for every anti-infantry tank in the game. So what if you save a lot of fuel? Almost all Ostheer players will anyway because teching these days is often pointless. And comparing this to the t-70 is stupid, one's a light recon can and the other is an assault gun with no turret. And the fact most call ins are heavies is a problem with heavies, not the StuG Ausf E. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: ostheer CAS overperforming.8 Mar 2015, 13:25 PM How is the StuG E overpowered, other than being a good blobbing punisher? It's the most fragile Axis medium in the game. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: WEHRMACHT=RUBBISH8 Mar 2015, 13:23 PM Adding realistic armor values isn't a road you want to go down, because while it would make tanks like the Panther worse, it would make allied tanks a lot, LOT worse. In: Scrap Yard

This isn't actually possible to do with the amount of MP you have. Unless we are talking about blobbing oustruppen Do with OKW Panther whatever you like. The OKW Panther is actually worse than the Ostheer one (If only slightly), as it's a West German Panther. In: Scrap Yard
Thread: Combining VCoH and CoH2 voice files?8 Mar 2015, 13:16 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Mar 2015, 08:35 AMTheSleep3r I just checked it out, this is so cool On topic, I just cannot stand OKW voices. The announcer and sturms are nice, they sure do sound evil as shit, but somehow I want to puke the moment I hear volks or falls Volks sound desperate, which is a nice touch. But the evil sounding units are amazingly well done. Sturmtiger is the best IMO. In: Lobby
Thread: ostheer CAS overperforming.8 Mar 2015, 13:00 PM StuG E isn't overpowered in any universe, it literally is countered by one AT gun with infantry support. Or a tank of any denomination. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Player Card Worth and Community 8 Mar 2015, 09:50 AM Jump back to quoted post8 Mar 2015, 08:34 AMMarcoRossolini Given that CookiesnCream has a consistently good rank in all factions, I think I'm going to trust his opinion more than our favourite axis fanboy. There, fellow readers, is a manifestation of what this thread is about. Cookies has his playercard consistently on show and it shows he has consistently good stats, sure, there's people that are better than him, but his stats show he is consistently good across all factions. Alexzandvar... well, where to start? Generally I gather my opinions from streamers and personal experience, I don't know what cookies does but knowing that things like smoke are less useful against good people with good micro isn't that hard to understand Once you finally figure out how to use attack ground properly it becomes a lot easier to deal with tanks and vehicles that pop smoke, for instance, the Puma and Flak HT. But I guess you can just accuse me of being a fan boy, despite me actually agreeing with most posters on this forum about the bullshit things in OKW like Obers. You are talking to guy to said that smoke is not made to help with assault but to force enemy to moce to you so... And I dont get why would you throw smoke to cover whith which units you are taking point, I mean, enemy has vision only in the middle on the point, so if you keep units at the edge, enemy wont see anything. If the enemy is looking at the point (which he should) and covering it with suppression platforms than using smoke is going to be necessary to cap it. and often times it's just suicide to rush overlapping MG's even with a large amount of smoke. I would rather decap a point and force the enemy to move up out of his fortifications than throw away models attacking a fortified position. In: COH2 Gameplay
