Thread: Tank Point Blank27 Jul 2019, 18:38 PM It's a neat idea but I don't know how it would really work out. Most especially, obviously, the heaviest vehicles will lose out because more units will become a lot more likely to penetrate its frontal armour up close compared to before and guarantee close-up rear shots to penetrate across the board for medium tanks. It probably wouldn't too change much for situations where one player has much better positioning (though it would probably gut the rare edges cases where a good flank tragically bounces a shot anyway)...but the ropier fights between would definitely get a lot more deadly.

Thread: Hold fire button for MG4222 Jul 2019, 00:57 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Jul 2019, 00:13 AMGI John 412 That sounds like a good idea at first glance, but in an older thread it was brought up in, someone pointed out that the auto reload function could be manipulated by your opponent. An example could be to drive a light vehicle past the MG making it fire a burst at it then driving off to go do something else. The vehicle has now caused the MG to use up some of its ammo prompting it to reload after it is no longer in combat for a certain amount of time, for example let’s say it’s 10 seconds. Now our savvy opponent lies in wait and counts to 11 seconds and charges the MG that he knows is reloading. With this tactic an LMG blob could easily decrew an MG team that is busy reloading. Part of me wonders if this could actually work via making units out-of-combat, in addition to having an automatic action to reload, also gain a modifier which makes their reload speed instant. ...but I am no modder, so I must confess that's only conjecture. I'm also imagining this concept would allow HMGs to be reloaded automatically without being set-up, and I can't even say if that's possible at all either. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Target Waek Point: Streamline or Rename10 Jul 2019, 19:36 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Jul 2019, 17:47 PMthedarkarmadillo I think simply name changes are necessary. The multiple different effects depending on the unit but same name makes the game very complex for newer players Yeah, just changing the StuG and Puma versions to "Target Gunners" would get the job done to highlight the important difference (stops only vehicles' ability to damage, not move).

Thread: Ostwind's penetrations3 Jul 2019, 18:25 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Jul 2019, 17:27 PMMakiesKurisu their range are almost the same and ostwind wipe out infs quickly at max range. A shecks team can defend themselves against a T-70 while even 2 zook teams will be not enough to hold the line against ostwind in open battle. Of course u could kill it with 8 zooks or more. But that's costy and leaving u got little AI firepowers. The problem is the range not the armor. I dunno, both of them have the same range. T-70 will take longer to entirely fight off a bunch of AT infantry running at it due to its cheaper cost and correspondingly weaker damage, but both of them are basically going to inflict free manpower bleed when micromanaged effectively because they outrun and outrange handheld AT without much trouble.

Thread: ISU-152 needs some love.3 Jul 2019, 04:54 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Jul 2019, 04:50 AMLoopDloop +1 Blasting infantry to an alternate dimension from almost ele range is definitely something I do not regret picking a commander for and paying lots of resources for. It's also the only allied tank that doesn't get practically hardcountered by ele or jagd so that's a bonus too, and the dshk makes gives it kinda decent AA (lol). It's not really for AT anyway, that's essentially just a bonus and it shouldn't be anywhere near as good as ele or jagd at AT because it can actually kill inf well. You don't need to counter an Elefant if it has no infantry to capture points anyway In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Machine Guns1 Jul 2019, 20:40 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Jul 2019, 19:36 PMShadowLinkX37 I actually never thought of that. I can't count how many times I'm sitting fully behind green cover and I get suppressed anyways because "reasons". And sometimes its not even a man sitting on the side of the bag, it just happens. Although this would make sandbags even more problematic on sections and volks. Could that be because of AoE suppression? Hitting a squad nearby another one in heavy cover will can cause the one in heavy cover to get suppressed too, though actually targeting the one in heavy cover is more likely to kill models before suppressing them (if at all).

Thread: Ostheer vulnerability to indirect fire21 Jun 2019, 19:49 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Jun 2019, 19:42 PMFarlon Counter barrage is actually pretty good if range allows it, it automatically targets indirect fire units that are shooting at you and seem to have lower scatter too. My LeFH sniped 3 katyushas in one match once with counter barrage. It's definitely pretty undeniably great on the LeFH considering, well, it'd be only firing off of its barrage cooldown otherwise. Free shots compared to the other howitzers. In: COH2 Balance
