Thread: Patch notes for 23rd June18 Jun 2015, 18:44 PM I mean I feel like a big problem here is that the section of the community that was in the alpha are now in a position where their expectations are completely different from those who weren't part of the testing portion and now the community is split. Mostly because of an overbearing NDA and the lack of a either public betas or clear communication from the devs. Perhaps just giving the community a better idea of what they're aiming for during any patch would help.

Thread: OKW Op.... really?17 Jun 2015, 10:07 AM Jump back to quoted post16 Jun 2015, 07:03 AMBeefSurge Volks are roughly equal to Conscripts in AI abilities averaged at all game stages. Every faction has TD, so Jagdpanzer. Kubel, I agree. IR Halftrack is a cool idea. No non doc MG is supposed to encourage offensive action. In terms of flavor I agree-Ostheer is the support weapon faction. Flak track and Luchs actually have completely different roles. That is true about Volks, however I was mostly using that bullet point to bring issue to the following point that, "Volks' AT focus causes call-in reliance as Obersoldatan aren't worth it compared to Falls." Imo an upgrade to increase anti-infantry and swapping PzSchrecks for a Faust upgrade makes more sense to me. I know it would be pretty similar to OST grenadiers, but maybe like, 2-3 stg's instead of an mg42? An increase in mobility but decrease in overall damage output when compared to OST grens. Fair point on JPIV IR Halftrack iscool, I just wish it had a bit more incentive so we'd see it more. I agree again on the non doc mg I am confused though as to Flaktrack and Luchs. I'm aware that one is obviously more armoured, but I feel like they're both just for area denial/anti-infantry? I'm probably missing something obvious... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW Op.... really?16 Jun 2015, 05:53 AM OKW's at a weird place. I think that after the last patch it's way less cheesy, but I also think there are just fundamental flaws; Volks are mainline infantry that don't actually work against infantry Volks' AT focus causes call-in reliance as Obersoldatan aren't worthit compared to Falls Kubel is a unit that you only make one of and then never use again JPIV is AT in a faction that is already heavy AT IR halftrack is so seldom used I forget it's even in game Luchs and Flaktrack basically fill the same niche TigerII is non doctrinal while Pz4 are doctrinal no non doctrine MG, etc. I just hope they get completely reworked tbh.

Thread: Wehrmacht has to many "get out of jail free" abilities16 Jun 2015, 05:38 AM I mean, it has been said before, but blitz working in reverse is pretty silly. Other than that I think OST is fine in terms of 'escapes'. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Is it just me or are the Allies too spam heavy lately...16 Jun 2015, 05:31 AM Jump back to quoted post13 Jun 2015, 21:16 PMBeefSurge Rifle company doesn't have Paratroopers, Bulldozer, M1919, or Forward Observers. If an opponent spams Riflemen bleed him. Mortars, Snipers, Grens taking potshots. Most Rifle Company players go Captain, for AT guns. They also skip Major for faster EZ8. This means no USF light vehicles. And later armor. And you know what that means? German sniper can Murder Death Kill everything. He can also spot for your Paks with the vet he will have from murdering Riflemen. Agreed, SU definitely has an advantage, but I feel like alot of OST players (esp. new OST players)don't utilize their full extent of units. I mean, of course there are balance issues with OST tech speeds and what not, but I feel like on an average skill level most players just don't take the time to feel-out factions and end up complaining while they're still learning.

Thread: sigh the OKW8 Jun 2015, 05:49 AM OKW isn't near as strong as it was a patch or two ago, but I agree that the overall faction design is quite flawed. In particular; volksgrens being awful until they become at-infantry seems very silly to me (it gives them no middle ground and encourages mainlining call-ins I guess?) Also, having kubel in place of a non call-in infantry based MGteam seems backwards if kubel was call-in that would seem better imo. I'm no game dev though idk. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: OH Sniper1 Apr 2015, 22:58 PM Most of the time when you're trying to kill an enemy sniper/sniper team you should just use low base damage High dps units anyways? Plus it would go against Relic's whole idea units not getting one shotted and preservation. Snipers will still die to smgs + other small arms fire. Idk why people are worried about it not dying in one shot. Jump back to quoted post1 Apr 2015, 22:56 PMAlexzandvar At least a mortar hit will force it to retreat, and the Soviet mortar did get a nice ninja buff in the recent patch. Maybe the secret is just to revert the health but make it 2 men as well? Exactly In: Lobby
