Thread: Maxim Spam has to stop11 Feb 2015, 21:47 PM Maxim spam is excellent proof that USF, Soviets and OKW are all pretty equally cheesy. It's no more annoying than Volks spam or Rifle spam. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Assault Engineers UP11 Feb 2015, 21:45 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Feb 2015, 20:24 PMdbmb ... w.. .what? How are you going to get to "point blank range" by blobbing? Your argument makes no sense. Long range weapons are significantly more efficient when blobbing, since positioning is meaningless. Short range weapon blobs get picked apart before they can close the distance, and require tactic to get up close. Smoke and small map size make it pretty easy to roam the map doing massive amounts of DPS using Shocks. Short range blobs have a different focus than long range blobs, since it's much easier to wipe an enemy caught up in your max DPS zone than one farther away. You might make more people retreat with a long range blob, but you will wipe a lot more units with a close range one. Regardless the fact that SMG's and Assault Rifles don't do well at medium range is quite silly, all DPS should be toned down but made more uniform across weapon profiles. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Remove Shreck from Volks11 Feb 2015, 21:41 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Feb 2015, 21:12 PMJaigen Its more of an issue their are no p4's for them to take on. zooks are worthwhile if the enemy uses large amount of medium armour but the entire wher meta either revolves around vehicles and heavy tanks. Pretty much, Zooks do pretty good DPS. The issue is that what they are meant to be used against is medium armor, not heavy tanks. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: okwunits11 Feb 2015, 20:20 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Feb 2015, 20:13 PMWingZero But Alex majority of your post that I have seen so far defends Axis units. I think its fair to assume you are bit biased based on your player card with Axis only games. Before WFA came out I had less than 10 hours logged playing as Axis. I don't like playing USF, but most of my friends prefer 3's and 4's (axis) so that's what I play. I do still play a far amount of AT soviets. The reason I defend Axis units (I haven't posted much at all before this latest posting spree) is because so much of the posts in these kinds of threads just read like revenge fantasies and rage posts because someone lost a game. I just don't think OKW is any more OP or cheesy than Soviets or USF. All 3 are stuck with dumb cheese strats and they all lack good options. Ostheer on the other hand, is just in a really bad spot at the moment. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: New faction British??11 Feb 2015, 20:15 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Feb 2015, 19:50 PMGlendizzle If u looked at van voort's thread you'd know we hardcore mp users are the VAST minority. Thus we couldn't fund the studio without the comp stomp and sp crowds. They need to make money to continue patching the game. And personally I don't think balance is completely atrocious. It's not perfect either. Optimization isn't. Even still this is the best game I've played in years. For the record I liked AA but feel I paid too much for it. I'm considering the rest an investment on future work on the game. I think they will add another faction. It's pretty obvious at this point this game isn't going to be an esport. The balance will be trickier with brits but so what. It's not going to hurt anything and it helps relic stay in business. Not exactly win win but I'm all for it. The issue isn't that AA was made, the issue is that what was left to rot so AA could be made. While it makes sense to release a SP AA campaign (which did nothing for the comp stompers) from a monetary perspective, long term your going to lose out because the only thing that keeps RTS's alive is the multiplayer, shafting your long term community by basically leaving them to rot really doesn't end well for most companies. I guess it's true Relic could stay in business just releasing SP expansions, but putting a bullet in the head of your online community also doesn't seem like the greatest idea. I would be much less upset about AA if we hadn't gone months without new content or balance because of it, when people on these very forums have proven it doesn't take a massive team of people months to make a balance patch.

Thread: Assault Engineers UP11 Feb 2015, 20:06 PM No matter which way you slice it, the way SMG's and Assault Rifles work in this game is extremely stupid. The whole "Only good at point blank range" heavily encourages blobing and simply rushing up to an enemy unit instead of trying to use cover/tactics. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: okwunits11 Feb 2015, 20:02 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Feb 2015, 19:42 PMOZtheWiZARD There is no discussion with you. You ignore facts and statistics and seems to be completely focused on your own perception of the balance that has nothing to do with the actual state. Other thing is how easy is now to dominate as OKW in team games resulting in ladder being a bit inflated right now. You haven't posted a single argument against anything I have said, and continue to resort to personal attacks. "L2P" is not a valid argument. In: COH2 Balance

I'm not saying it's on the level of shreks, but it it's there. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: New faction British??11 Feb 2015, 19:22 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Feb 2015, 19:19 PMdasheepeh I had a lot of fun with Ardennes Assault. So, I did to? If even a fraction of the resources they spent on it was put into fixing the multiplayer the game wouldn't be in nearly as horrible a state as it is in right now. In: COH2 Gameplay
