Thread: Sturm Offizier Needs A Follow Function17 Nov 2015, 06:22 AM ... Just remove the guy from the game then. If a unit encourages blobbing - and the Sturm Offizier does - it should go or else be reworked. But I rather dislike needless "micro-taxes." In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Demo Charges should be allowed only on buildings17 Nov 2015, 06:19 AM It's not particularly imbalanced imo - obviously they're rather expensive - but the concept behind these things is honestly pretty stupid. So basically no-warning insta-gibs should be avoided whenever possible just from a design perspective. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Sturm Offizier Needs A Follow Function15 Nov 2015, 11:08 AM Pretty simple suggestion. The OKW Breakthrough Doctrine's Sturm Offizier needs a "Follow Squad" function so he isn't such a pain to micro about. British Officers in CoH1 had this function, so I can't imagine that it would be particularly difficult to implement. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Commander for team games in current meta?13 Nov 2015, 10:44 AM Have a howitzer doctrine on-hand. The two most popular Soviet doctrines (Shock Rifle and Guard Motor) can't do a thing about it, which means it's going to be a very frustrating game for an opponent who selects them. Also it's great at breaking up support weapon walls. In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: Does suppression need a buff11 Nov 2015, 04:15 AM Wouldn't mind seeing pinning become easier to do, thing as it prevents squads from crawling up to an MG and throwing a grenade, which I don't particularly like. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Contending with USF infantry as Ostheer10 Nov 2015, 06:44 AM The Pack Howitzer isn't helping this dynamic much either. 4x Riflemen 2x Pack Howitzer in the late-game completely shuts down infantry play. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Unofficial OKW Redesign Thread9 Nov 2015, 11:43 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Nov 2015, 11:36 AMnee From reading some of the ideas here, some people really don't like the idea of asymmetrical faction design. It's almost like they want Ostheer but with King Tiger. T1 tank destroyer is silly. Gimped resource income is a terrible mechanic that contributes greatly to the faction's performance disparity in 1v1 compared to 4v4. Borderline-unachievable veterancy bonuses (that often aren't even that great) aren't doing much to help. TL;DR: We don't have an issue with asymmetrical balance. The problem's terrible faction design. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Unofficial OKW Redesign Thread9 Nov 2015, 01:56 AM In terms of what Relic can actually do to fix OKW. I feel the Kubelwagen needs something. It's mobile, sure, but its damage output is awful and it's not exactly great at suppressing stuff. It's also incredibly micro-intensive to use and prone to terrible pathfinding. OKW veterancy needs to be changed so that Vet 5 is actually better than Vet 3 and is actually achievable most of the time. I think the Flak Halftrack needs to be improved. Its lack of mobility makes it too vulnerable to AT guns to really be a good buy. MG34 should be buffed a bit. Bundle Grenade should be buffed. Volksgrenadiers need to get more accuracy bonuses with veterancy or something so they can fight infantry in the late-game. Not huge bonuses, but more than they get now. I think the munitions penalty should be removed, along with some changed to the redistribute resources ability (in order to prevent massive artillery spam and such). Other than that ... I don't know. OKW has such a stupid design it's hard for me to really imagine them working properly. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: CAS fuel transfer to munitions needs to be reduced 8 Nov 2015, 10:06 AM It's a terrible mechanic. Replace with Smoke Bombs please. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Volksgrenadiers / Flame grenades / shreck spam5 Nov 2015, 23:10 PM Really, just go Advanced Warfare Tactics and get a PPsH Conscript/Shock Trooper blob backed by a couple of Maxims and some SU-76s. Or even go Terror or Anti-Infantry Tactics. It's really not that hard to beat this. Just adapt. In: COH2 Balance
