Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 02:08 AM It's not the blob-killing capability that bothers me. It's the insta-gib-all-your-support-weapons ability. Same thing with Panzerwerfer, really. Also, I don't remember the Calliope being overpowered back in the first game. So it can be balanced. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 00:49 AM 360hp too low. At least 400. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF light vehicle abuse disheartening new/average players10 Jan 2016, 20:14 PM Puma is always good, even in the late-game. Stuart can be, imo, a bit difficult to kill as Ostheer, but that's more of a problem with the Ostheer than the Stuart. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Anti-infantry Capability of OKW9 Jan 2016, 19:53 PM Ostheer has a much harder time imo and essentially has to rely on the overpowered Panzerwerfer to fight off Rifle blobs. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The Best All Around Tank in COH28 Jan 2016, 23:22 PM A vet 3 or higher Puma can take on and kill almost any Allied tank with enough micro. And it only costs 70 fuel. I love this little guy. Otherwise, Comet/Tiger/E8. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Running over troops6 Jan 2016, 10:19 AM Wrote this in another thread quite recently: Was thinking about this the other day. I feel that it's a semi-unrealistic tactic and is only really possible to do by taking advantage of infantry pathfinding and map geography under very specific circumstances. It's kinda like half-built sandbags denying cover - very close to exploiting a glitch. So I'd prefer to see it removed tbh. Also, if infantry crush is realistic, why can't I just drive over deployed mortar teams and such? And why are only certain vehicles able to do it? Pretty sure getting driven over by a ten-ton halftrack would hurt. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Enough is enough, fix the volks5 Jan 2016, 08:53 AM Reducing the XP given by Panzershreck hits on vehicles would be a good start towards fixing Volksgrenadiers. And I'm not sure where all this "OKW lacks early-game AT" nonsense comes from. Even with the Panzershreck, they still have the Puma, which effectively shuts down all Allied light vehicle play and scales extremely well into the late-game, as well as the Raketenwerfer. Also, I'm not convince that Volksgrenadier blobbing is the optimal OKW strategy. I've had far more success employing a mix of Sturmpioneers, Volksgrenadiers, and elite infantry than just using Volksgrenadiers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: List Of Dubious Veterancy Bonuses1 Jan 2016, 22:53 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Jan 2016, 14:33 PM__deleted__ Guy that say +20% DPS at vet one is bad bonus must be drunk or comlete idiot. Yeah, 20% accuracy buff on the Major is a great bonus. Yeah. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: List Of Dubious Veterancy Bonuses31 Dec 2015, 11:10 AM I went through the site's veterancy guide and picked out the veterancy bonuses that I thought weren't very good. The idea's that hopefully they might be replaced with better buffs. Combat Engineers Vet 2 - +20% accuracy Vet 3 - +15% accuracy, -15% cooldown Received accuracy reductions would be far better bonuses. ZiS-3 Vet 3 - +6.25% barrage range Not a big enough bonus to even really be noticeable. SU-76 Vet 3 - +11.1% barrage range See ZiS-3. Guards Rifle Vet 2 +10% penetration This very small bonus really isn't going to help these guys fight vehicles any better. ML-20 Vet 2 - +30% rotation speed A very small bonus. These units need cooldown reductions or firepower buffs, not better rotation speeds. B4 Vet 2 - +50% rotation speed See ML-20. Pioneers Vet 2 – +20% accuracy Vet 3 - +15% accuracy, -15% cooldown See Soviet Combat Engineers. Stormtroopers Veterancy bonuses should match Panzer Grenadiers LeFH-18 Vet 2 - +30% rotation speed See Soviet ML-20. Mechanized LMG Grenadiers Veterancy bonuses should match Grenadiers. Rear Echelon Vet 1 - +20% accuracy This is only useful if you're spamming Echelons with BARs. Otherwise they don't need an accuracy buff. Lieutenant Vet 3 - Passive Sprint This bonus causes the unit to run ahead of other US infantry units, turning him into an easy target for German units. M20 Vet 3 - +50% penetration Basically useless. M15A1 AA Halftrack Vet 3 - +30% penetration Basically useless. Major Vet 1 - +20% accuracy Because of all those times you need to tackle German infantry with the Major's M1911. Sturmpioneers Vet 3 - +25% construction speed Basically useless. Vet 3 - Concussive Grenades Good ability but needs to be unlocked earlier. LeIG-18 Vet 2 - +25% movement speed, -23% received accuracy Both useless. Vet 3 - -40% barrage recharge, +33% barrage range Should probably apply to auto-fire as well. Vet 5 - +15% penetration Completely useless. Flak Halftrack Vet 4 - +15% penetration In the unlikely event this unit hits vet 4, you're probably not going to be fighting Allied vehicles with it. Not a very big bonus either. Walking Stuka Vet 5 - +30% speed, +30% rotation speed, +30% ac/de-celeration Completely useless on this unit. MG34 Vet 4 - -20% received accuracy A very weak bonus on a very weak unit. The gunners aren't supposed to be exposed to much gunfire anyways. In: COH2 Gameplay
