Thread: Recon units/abilities are too affordable and available5 Feb 2019, 19:55 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Feb 2019, 21:48 PMTobis Then why does nobody use it? It's a lame unit but you are overexaggerating its usefulness. I see it all the time in 2v2s, no clue what you're talking about It's 5 fuel. Zero reason not to get one if you went BGHQ On a separate note spec ops flares and Overwatch territory flares are the most egregious. Spec Ops flares for the lack of counterplay, Overwatch flares because of the lack of micro OR cost to use them. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sand bags blocking5 Feb 2019, 15:48 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Feb 2019, 21:13 PMTobis Relic even banned it in their own largest 2v2 tournament. You happen to know if there's anything we can do about it? Not like in-game but as far as reporting goes. Lost squads in back to back games yesterday because of my retreats being blocked by this.

Thread: Overwatch Flares Red Cover Bug31 Jan 2019, 20:30 PM Jump back to quoted post31 Jan 2019, 18:44 PMRollingStone Then, howewer would be nice to rework flares to be set on point by sturmpios/volks/jaegers in the same way how booby traps work in soviet doctrines. Yeah can we please have this? It's low-key OP that the traps auto-arm themselves on every single point you capture. Especially now that it's 1/3 of a Commander ability. Somehow rifleman flares are worth a full slot, but maphacks, free trip flares, and mobile demo charges aren't good enough and can be merged together... Okay In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Pathfinders need a nerf don't they?30 Jan 2019, 16:44 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Jan 2019, 08:19 AMKatitof I'm quite positive that 120 weapon muni investment will be quite good on any single squad in game. I don't think it is a good investment on Pathfinders, because of what GentlemanTroll just pointed out. The drop chance is extremely high, and really all you need to is to keep Pathfinders near rifleman with Bars. The Bars synergize well with the sniper, but Pathfinders are too squishy to equip BARs themselves IMO. The sniper makes you drop them like pennies In: COH2 Balance
Thread: SECTOR ASSAULT GHOST BOMBER FAKE NEWS30 Jan 2019, 01:49 AM Jump back to quoted post29 Jan 2019, 02:17 AMLemonJuice where in his post is he implying that its fine? hes simply stating the facts that units inside the base sector wont be targeted. Yeah and my point is that it really means nothing because units in the base sector can still get bombed because of how tracking works, which Sander alludes to. It's focusing on the minor issue is what I'm saying The problem is loiters in general. Just about everyone of them has been OP at some point or another. And I think as a concept they're not a good idea to begin with (side from recon loiters) In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: SECTOR ASSAULT GHOST BOMBER FAKE NEWS29 Jan 2019, 00:54 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Jan 2019, 22:17 PMSander93 Go test it. It will not. Only if units go outside the base sector and then go back in can they get tracked. Why do you keep saying this like it's fine? And don't say because all loiters do it, I'm of the opinion all loiters should be gone, or at the very least reworked heavily. This "extra range" phenomena being a big reason In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: I think the comet tank is due for a buff.24 Jan 2019, 02:55 AM Jump back to quoted post24 Jan 2019, 02:42 AMStug life The range it’s out of question I very much agree here. I think that was definitely one of the good nerfs. However I also think the on-the-move nerf from .75 to .5 was unnecessary because of that range nerf. Giving it the .75 modifier back would be a pretty measured way to improve the unit. Maybe slightly better handling too, if they can do that without making it a crush monster again In: COH2 Balance
Thread: I think the comet tank is due for a buff.23 Jan 2019, 19:42 PM Give it back the .75 on-the-move accuracy modifier. There was no good reason for the Comet to lose that, given how many other things were nerfed at the same time. It made sense for the cromwell to lose it, but it seems like the comet should have that capacity as much as any tank in the game. Giving it back that modifier would be a nice place to start I think In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Easy 8 Change Suggestions21 Jan 2019, 22:20 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Jan 2019, 21:32 PMGrumpy They put the flamethrowers on the RE's when they took them away from riflemen. Riflemen with flamethrowers made playing against this commander really tough a couple of years ago. Nobody would support putting flamethrowers back on rifles. I know why they did it, and I don't want them back on RIfles either. I'm just saying in the context of theme, they make by far the least sense on "Rifle Company" Agree totally on the Sprint debuff. I think they should remove that, and merge Sprint and flares. Wouldn't be an issue because rifle company is the only one who has those abilities on US In: Lobby
Thread: Easy 8 Change Suggestions21 Jan 2019, 18:21 PM Riflemen flares and Sprint should be merged into 1 Commander ability. Ez8 is fine, the Doctrine is what needs help. Not sure what to do with the extra slot. Gotta be careful when you merge abilities and just add something (ahem, overwatch...) Jump back to quoted post21 Jan 2019, 16:43 PMGrumpy Pull out white phos, fire up, flares, put in field defense, 1919, and the off-map from Infantry Company and this would be a lot better (plus the abilities would follow the commander theme instead of the strange mix it has currently). I Don't see how this would be more in theme for the Commander. You removed two riflemen abilities that aren't on other commanders and added two riflemen abilities that are already on 2 commanders. The strangest thing thematically is Rear Echelon flamethrowers, but that should stay? I'm with you on the EZ8 point thats being said Also this Commander seems to be about agressive tactics. M1919s and mines/bunkers are defensively minded abilities In: Lobby
