Hey guys

I am gonna lay down my point, to begin with, and elaborate on my reasoning for it afterward. Every standard infantry squad in the game has a non-doctrinal weapon upgrade, expect Sovjets conscripts! My point being that Conscripts don't necessarily scale as well in the game as other infantry units due to this lack of DPS from no upgradeable weapon.

This is a point I have been wondering about for quite a time now, so as we know all 5 factions currently have fairly similar standard infantry squads with some differences in their overall damage output at different ranges. e.g US Riflemen, with BARS or not is an Infantry squad that is effective at medium to short range whereas Grenadiers from Wehrmacht is a squad that is better suited for long-range engagements even more so with the LMG42 upgrade.

I know that each squad is advantages if used in the right way, but I still think that conscripts have a harder time to keep up with enemy squads DPS no matter what range they are fighting at. They lose to grenadiers at long range due to LMG42 and rifle-nades, they lose close range to Volksgrenadiers due to STGs.


It is not all the time you are going to be playing with a commander with PPSH upgrades and therefore you will then lose a lot of fights later in the game to having inferior infantry.

My idea of a way to fix this problem is to give Sovjets a non-doctrinal weapon upgrade for conscripts consisting of giving 3-4 models SVT rifles (the rifles used by Penal squads) to give them an edge in medium range fights. This will not solve all the problems but it will give the conscripts a fighting edge in many scenarios where would normally not have it.

This is just something I have been thinking about, would love to hear responses and criticism to my idea.

Apparently I am making his game lag

I completly disagree with this. Neither Stuve nor Kimbo were "nearly guaranteed" a place to qualify. Kimbo´s playstyle is very unpleasant to watch and not having his ghost sandbagging and blobbing in the GCS main event is a good thing for spectators. Neither Stuve nor Kimbo have shown the emotional maturity to participate in a live tournament and thus were DQd, nothing wrong with that and only logical really.

On top of that, neither were considered favourites for a possible GCS win. So no, you don´t need to beat stuve and kimbo to prove you are the best COH2 1v1 player. I could understand your point if all of a sudden the likes of Devm, Vonasten, Talisman, Vonivan etc were DQd.

"Lack of emotional Maturity" Couldn't have said it better, thank you for this post
