Furthermore since there is generally no great way to get out of suppression/pin in the middle of combat you are generally forced to retreat units constantly. Time is a valuable resource in RTS, especially in CoH 2 where time is directly correlated to map control due to the capping mechanics. Having such reliable suppression at such long range with such a high amount of map coverage in a 1v1 is just absurd. Currently these units are basically extremely long range MGs that inflict considerable bleed without exposing themselves to any real danger.
Quoted for truth.
What are the stats and veterancy for all mainline infantry in the game now anyway? Where to find? Especially interested to find veterancy data. I completely understand that the people creating the spreadsheets and the coh2-stats might not have the energy to update with the constant changes going on. So where to go look from now on?
