Thread: sniper idea25 Nov 2022, 15:53 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Nov 2022, 15:25 PMEsxile Didn't used the word unfair, soviet sniper and tech around is fine and balanced. Ostheer's one isn't. Fair enough Esxile. You did not use that word, I did misrepresent your point a bit there. Apologies. Was mainly triggered by Katukov making the discussion about his usual agenda. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: sniper idea25 Nov 2022, 10:36 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Nov 2022, 10:07 AMKatukov he got called biased because he said that wehr snipers don't need to sacrifice support weapons while soviet ones do (Ukf doesn't either, but they're UKF, lol) aight For implying that it is somehow unfair that the Soviet sniper can quite easily be supported by a different set of units, yes. "Extended Vision" being perhaps the only genuinely fair comment in his post. Your point was even dumber. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: sniper idea25 Nov 2022, 09:21 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Nov 2022, 07:35 AMEsxile Soviet sniper isn't really a problem since they don't come with appropriate support before long, you can easily force him with a good push. Ostheer sniper is an issue because you can have it, an hmg, pioneer with extended vision and a gren squad without much sacrifice early game then you get more grens and fast 222. Lol yep the usual bias. The exact same thing from Katukov, as usual. Making them even more vulnerable on retreat is a possibility... though I find the cone idea more interesting. Anything that would force the player to support them more to be effective would be a good idea I think. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: sniper idea24 Nov 2022, 13:17 PM Not a huge fan of them either, though if every faction has access to them that would be a step in the right direction. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?23 Nov 2022, 17:02 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Nov 2022, 21:52 PMPedro_Jedi JLI should have the threshold for critslowered to 40% health, like Paths. Also, they should lose the sprint. With these 2 adjustments, they'd be way more balanced I'm probably going to get roasted for this but are JLI really that OP? Klement made a good point about Scavenge, I think the Overwatch doc just has too much good stuff in it, like most of the other meta doctrines. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Prohibition of Pay To Win Commanders21 Nov 2022, 13:50 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Nov 2022, 12:04 PMDonnieChan that makes no sense, i dont understand this, i really dont. politics and genderstuff actually harm sales and cost money, they dont lead to more profit. there are more than enough examples for that. why do corporations still do that? Because at the moment, a relatively small number of incredibly vocal activists are often able to convince publishers that it will harm their game and cost them money unless they include plenty of moralising, sanctimonious messaging that will teach the consumer right from wrong, with no grey areas whatsoever as their audience couldn't possibly handle it. When of course the opposite is actually true, the overwhelming majority of the public already know right from wrong and do not appreciate being patronised. Games journalism is absolutely rife with it at the moment as well. For example, in almost anything Lovecraft related you get journalists banging on about what a terrible racist HP Lovecraft was (a man born in 1890!) or trying to shame Japanese developers into including diversity characters, purely for the sake of it, in a completely fictional fantasy realm. They should be allowed to simply make the games they want to make. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Katyusha “Creeping Barrage” vs. Stuka zu Fuß Barrage18 Nov 2022, 12:42 PM It could just be my perception of it but i think the Stuka barrage hits considerably harder than either the creeping or the normal one from the Katyusha. That said, i think you get a little bit more time to react to it when you first hear the launch, so it's easier to dodge... if you don't though, it hurts. Katy feels a bit less consistant with it's damage, unless its used like a shotgun. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?11 Nov 2022, 16:36 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Nov 2022, 15:23 PMaerafield Overwatch doc is kinda stupid, but that's not rly a bad thing imo because it's the last reason why we don't see omega-boring Elite Armor doc every single match, so at least it brings a bit of variety. And the door swings both ways for this "OP doc" argument. USF has airborne, Soviets have Guard Motor & Mechanized Support, Brits have Royal Engineers & Commandos, Wehrmacht has Jaeger Armor & Mechanized etc etc Agreed. Hopefully in 3 all the factions will end up being fully fleshed out with all the correct tools, or if not, they'll at least be easier to balance. That way there won't be a need for the OP crutches that several of the current ones rely on, just to keep them somewhat competitive. This thought is probably WAY too optimistic though.

Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?11 Nov 2022, 12:32 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Nov 2022, 12:12 PMMassaDerek Why does the CoH franchise deliberately appeal to wehraboos so much? Why was Lefh counter-battery able to target and track moving arty pieces in the FoW? ST armor isn't even very high, it's close to a OKW P4, but it has the same if not more HP than the Churchill vetted.I had a match a year or more ago on Rails and Metal before the ST projectile collision patch was released, and even then it was busted with it's sight wiping at least 5 of my squads, racking up 55+ kills and my SU85 barely if ever spotting it before it fired off a nuke. IMO ISU was just never that strong, Ele and Jagd can always turn the tide of a match into the favour of the Axis, but the ISU will not be able to make up the difference most of the time if you aren't already winning, especially with it's unfavourable matchup against the former two.It's AT potential is roughly equal to a single SU85, and that's ridiculous. Yeah you do appear to have quite a one-eyed perspective. In: COH2 Balance
