Thread: M3 Halftrack Assault Group1 Sep 2015, 03:00 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Sep 2015, 02:51 AMcomm_ash I am not an idiot Alex I never implied you were? You called me on them not having 1 received accuracy. I know what recieved accuracy is and what happens to units when they fight. You don't need to go to threads and pretend to inform people. What do you mean by pretending? Is trying to be helpful a bad thing now? It's just that a lot of people ARE good of the game but that doesn't mean they have deep understanding of the engine mechanics (which is understandable because it's a lot of math and effort). If you are going to offer your perspective on a faction/ commander, I would ask you to use the faction/ commander in question before you start talking about it. Hard to use Calvary Rifle men in a multiplayer setting when they don't exist in one yet, but they are probably going to be part of the new USF commander loadout. In: COH2 Balance

Its arc is too narrow and it has no special ability as far as actual offensive power is concerned. I wouldn't say having Pak40 penetration with better reload speed to be something you could characterize as "sucking". The 6-pounder is very good. In: Lobby
Thread: M3 Halftrack Assault Group1 Sep 2015, 02:44 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Sep 2015, 02:19 AMcomm_ash And why do they have to be a noskill charge into enemies unit? Cavalry riflemen SHOULD be a high DPS low survivability CQC unit that requires combined arms to be used to full effect. They would still have the recieved acuracy of rifles, which is NOT 1.0. USF players don't WANT shocks 2.0, we want different, specialized units that work within the scope of the USF. There is a reason these rifles will be coming in an HT. Well, yes technically they would have .97 received accuracy but functionally it makes very little difference. And uhm, shock troops are the literal definition of specialized. They are excellent at CQC combat and nothing else. If you want Cavalry Riflemen then well okay I'm glad for you but I just want you to be informed of the potential impact of them relative to the current situation vis a vis CQC units in combat and that units (such as ass engines, pios, assgrens and PPsh cons) with low survability and a CQC combat focus tend to be lacking in impact later into the game.

Thread: M3 Halftrack Assault Group1 Sep 2015, 01:59 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Sep 2015, 01:44 AMcomm_ash Cough, they have a shock-style smoke grenade and a regular grenade cough Also, no reason to change change their abilities ad vet to that of base rifles. I knew they had a shock style smoke grenade, but that doesn't help them close and win battles when facing a good opponent when the squad still has 100% received accuracy. Basically CQC units work like this; they depend very heavily on not losing models in order to win when they finally get into their kill zone because every model loss represents a large loss in DPS and the way SMG's drain health makes it so they don't often kill enemy models (which means your still going to be taking the full brunt of his DPS). Shocks can handle this because they have a grenade and armor. Para's can handle this because they have an extra man and their individual DPS is so insane along with their special ability they can still win out in CQC (although it should be said Thompson para's aren't nearly as common as 1919 para's). Sturms when vetted up have very good received accuracy AND they use Assault Rifles. In: COH2 Balance

I expected something like sturmpio dps when you upgraded to 5 man squads but they feel like ass grens. Well they have better received accuracy, so there's that. (.8 to be specific) In: Lobby

They never hit, just miss ridiculously against very close targets, making bazooka look good. :/ At least PTRS does consistent damage as well. Try attacking ground. They have a fairly decent ROF. Is it worth giving Commandos Brens? What about Engineers? Heavy Engineers get their own LMG's so there's no reason to give them Brens if your doing Anvil but if your going hammer then sure! Also giving Commandos anything is worth it since relic forgot to fix them lol In: Lobby

I dont even know what he's babbling about...how would a 5 man thompson squad in a halftrack be mediocre 5 man rifle squad with all CQC weapons and nothing to close the gap (except a HT that can be 2 shotted easily) would fall apart late game. The reason Thompson Para's work is they are 6 men and have much better veterancy, also they have a special ability that is pure rape. CQC focused squad + late game + no ability to close = ded. Again, I said mediocre. They wouldn't be bad by any stretch of the imagination but they would just compound the added drain issues USF has. In: COH2 Balance
