It's just kind of annoying how almost all of ostheer opponents can keep spamming infantry because ostheer does not have a very good hard counter to early infantry spam in vehicle form... okw has a luch,soviets have to t70, and usf has very good countering vehicles. The scout car is not reliable enough to be a good counter.
222 would be perfect with Miragefla's mod's changes.
Sdfkz 222
Previously the 222's Coaxial MG had no rotation with only a 10 degree firing cone with no ability to traverse making it difficult to track targets it chases after, particularly at close-range. The reload has been shortened the reload on the MG to reduce the length the MG is not firing.
-Coaxial MG now has 10 degree traverse to the left, right, and up.
-Coaxial MG Reload from 6/6.5 to 4/4.5.
Sdfkz 222
Improved the performance of the 222 in terms of survivability against small-arms. Veterancy adjusted on the 222 to account for the autocannon being the primary weapon which relies on scatter. Cost slightly raised.
-Armour from 9/4.5 to 12/6.
-Coaxial MG now gains accuracy bonuses with veterancy.
-Fuel price from 15 to 20.
-Autocannon far range accuracy set to 0.025 (for some reason it was set to 0.02)
-222 autocannon can now attack ground. |
On Me! Bro, ON ME!
Ehhhh, On Me!'s acceptably different enough to make its usage not a simplistic "lolHMGs". |
Seriously though; Obers are the best anti-infantry infantry in the game if you use their abilities right.
The way I see people usually play them, you wouldn't even know Obers have a vet 1 ability :-| |
if transports were more common (and had better utility) i would agree. instead we have no transport for OKW, a doctrinal one for USF, and brits can only move one squad; transports are not an important part of this game, which is unfortunate.
Transports are really just used to drive-by or reinforce when they are available anyway. |
Good luck trying to fight off USF Rifleman + Free LT with free BAR Thompson + M20.
Upgrade shreck against M20? No LMG against BAR rifles
Upgrade LMG? No shreck against M20
Teller mine? Pray that he hits it and you can fight off the big blob with your crappy gren
Implying to me that Pioneer effectiveness in March 2014 was fine is a waste of both of our times. |
Relic thought it will be awesome idea to transfer ability from coh1 together with its disadvantages, but somehow forgot about why it had them in the first place.
For the love of Quinn though, DO NOT BRING BACK THE SUPPRESSION REMOVAL! |
I also thought of maybe buffing the pio mp40 a tad to make them more compact affective giving ostheer a chance in close quarter maps and also it could hopefully apply to assault grens
We already saw what happened when Pioneers already were like that - to even entertain the idea, they'd need a significant cost increase as well...at the very least (Bonus sight for a CQC unit is certainly quite a boon - they'd be able to easily avoid HMGs and constantly flank them). |
Relic reads the forums, makes a tally of how many "unit op, plz nurf nao!" threads were created in a given week for each unit, and then Relic adjusts the scores a little based on how angry, accusatory, or just outright abusive or threatening the opening post was. Then they nerf accordingly.
Oh yeah, that reminds me |
Stop ruining the fun!
Yeah, if the Relic people start using it, it won't be cool anymore. |
Perhaps they even post here incognito!
I'll bet ausownage is a sleeper agent for them |
