Kv-2 can be pretty decent in 2vs2 but in 1vs1 I would rather get t4 up and some kats.
Windustry struggles against pak and shrek spam, thats why kat is the perfect supplement to a heavy t34 spam. |
That sums it up quite well altough i agree with most of your points that doesnt mean the mg 42 isnt a bit op now.
As i said the problem is based on the lack of options for usf.I just want the mg42 to be slightly more pricey ,lets say around 260-270,to be on par with other mgs and of course to not over perform ,which it currently does. |
Dunno,useless ?It took a bit longer yes but not useless,unless you were incapable to position it well.It was a cost effective area denial and anti blob weapon,when vet 3.
Frankly speaking,havent played 1vs1 for some time(sick of waiting 10 mins and then roflstomping someone).But my recent 2vs2 games tell me that it is pretty hard for usf in other game modes than 1vs1 to compete with ostheer.
USF struggels the most,because 1) mg too effecitve 2) too cheap
That doesnt mean they suck at it ,have hardly played coh1 and would still assume i am good at flanking,no prejudices pls.

Sigh.
I have never understood the "4 rifles running into mg and steal it" crap
Mgs were fine,with a little micro and good positioning you could stop blobs.Now its just stupidly easy,get 2 mgs,put them somewhere,gg.
Nobody wants the old mg back ,thats why its price has to be raised.
Its a total no-brainer,your opponent needs 2-3 times the micro and clicks to overwhelm one mg.
Not even to mention ammo,mp losses during the assault,or risk of losing a squad,whereas u just have to push the retreat button in time.
Add this to some asian lmg blobers.(could be any blober,but mostly asians)
Then u are questioning yourself why .50 cal is more pricey and maxim not at all doing what its supposed to do for the same cost.

Hey you know,stuart can take a stug g on its own
Haha rly ? I guess we won
|
3-4 because you can go either LT(3 RM) and fast m20 to counter static positions or the safer way to go CPT (4RM) + stuart - Major
Partially right,just remember to retreat when the mp skirimishes arent in your favour.Additionally medic is a must,else mp bleed.
Be cautios ,dont lose a squad, attack from multiple directions and last but not least capture important buildings with your REs.
USF heavily relies on fast teching thats why you should focus on that.Never go 4 RM when LT.
REs are only for early map control,recrewing and capturing territories.
Hope that i could help you.

IMO double REs into 3-4 rifles work best against ost.
Then depending on the enemy,LT + m20 + mgs or alot safer but not as offensive CPT + stuart + (pack/pak) - sherman/Scott.
As may be necessary to get nades or bars for more assault power. |
Some still dont get the issue.You cant outnumber a squad that has the same price as your core unit.
I share the idea of usf having a t0 mortar to counter static positions and not being forced to tech into a specific direction.
As Jesulin said, the problem starts when you cant even fight in green cover.I mean,isnt that the purpose of green cover ?
Frankly speaking i havent played much 1vs1 since the recent patch but i have the impression that its a bit too easy,without good postioning,to stop entire armys with just 2 mg42's. |
Interesting new patch,really appreciated although some things disturb me.
As is seems coh2 is going to get a more static warfare which is usually good but...
1)Maxim cant suppress, for instance, lmg gren blobs,ober blobs or any other bigger unit formation.
2)Squads get suppressed even in green cover
3)To win the mp war against axis you have to close in to reach the optimal range for your squads,unfortunately mgs already waiting to insta pin.
4)rifle nades
IMO maxims are clearly UP for their price compared to others.
maxim retreat is the most stupidest bs ever
less blob suppression
no useful vet 1 ability
arc of fire
grenades of all kinds

Dont distract ,it seems that you are afraid but being noob isnt a bad thing.
You can continue to complain about my english,it wont change the fact that i currently deem you as a noob.
Demos are no rng wth you are even talking about ? Forget it,make up your mind,play some games as axis against mine and demo spammer then we can talk further.
