Thread: Remove handheld AT from the game26 Jun 2016, 14:44 PM I agree with OP - microing tanks is too hard please make everyone's life easier and remove handheld AT. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: USF vehicle cew bug26 Jun 2016, 01:07 AM Someone used this against me earlier this afternoon... can verify. I uploaded that replay to the official forum's bug reporting. The really sad part was that I took the fker down to 8 VP regardless because he was so terrible otherwise. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: USF Blobs24 Jun 2016, 20:08 PM As always... 1. Zooks (especially double zooks) hurt Rifleman DPS a lot more 2. Zooks aren't nearly as potent as Shreks and are often facing heavier armor. If USF builds a LT it loses access to the AT Gun/Stuart it hurts their ability to handle armour If USF builds both the LT and CAPT and builds a light vehicle the ability to get medium tanks is delayed much more. Seriously the fuel is more or less identical setting aside more expensive OKW tanks. It's almost like there is some kind of asymmetry going on here... asymmetrical bal... bal...? I give up.

Thread: Cromwell Centaur AA Tank little bit OP?24 Jun 2016, 16:03 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Jun 2016, 02:58 AMMr. Someguy Working as intended. That only worked because the squads were in heavy cover and hit from behind so all the explosive shells didn't have a chance to overshoot/scatter like they normally would - works the same way if you would drive an Ostwind Etc. behind a squad against sandbangs - Tightrope covered it in one of his videos.

Thread: US stuart rush24 Jun 2016, 15:24 PM I always keep Mobile Defense in my load-out for that reason as well - though I try to only use it if I'm struggling with my core army units as counters before "Panic Puma". Multiple 222 (444 or 666) can be effective depending on how you play it. What I'll sometimes do is a light T1 (MG42, X3 Gren usually) and then fast tech for 222. I'll hold the first one back while the second one is building and if you time it right you can surprise the Stuart if he's overly aggressive or caught out of position. Key is to get rear armor hits/block his movement and burst him down. With the Stuart down you can use your 222 flotilla to bully Riflemen from there. (Benefit of being more useful AI than Puma) In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: June 23 Hotfix23 Jun 2016, 20:54 PM I think USF finally decoded the plans for the old Wher Turbo Mortar and finally rolled them out on the front lines with improved scatter to boot - have to admire that American ingenuity. In: Lobby
Thread: June 23 Hotfix23 Jun 2016, 19:02 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Jun 2016, 18:39 PMAustralian Magic Why remove stun from JT? :\| I think the idea is that now that is has lower rear armor you don't need to have the random stuns as a further nerf on it to balance it. In: Lobby
Thread: Panzerschreck Cost On Sturms23 Jun 2016, 14:00 PM +1 to Shrek cost being reduced... on a side note does anyone feel like the StrumPio aim time with Shrek is god awful compared to what Volks used to be like? Any time I've used them it feels like they take for-ev-er to shoot. (Maybe that's because the shrek model is more likely to be sniped?) In: COH2 Balance
Thread: How to deal with new Penals23 Jun 2016, 06:26 AM Talking about 1v1 in general. Seriously every match they just steamroll me - rushing Luches seems like the obvious choice but I find that the early map control that Penals give usually just means a fast T70 which soft counters the Luches (and going Luches means getting a Puma puts you even more behind fuel wise). The flamer splash damage also necessitates healing (goodbye another 40 fuel) its just one long endless match of being on the back foot. I don't want to say Penals were overbuffed (but they certainly feel that way right now to me). Ideas? In: OKW Strategies
