Thread: Consolidated Commander Roster and General Balance Changes10 May 2019, 18:51 PM Jump back to quoted post10 May 2019, 17:42 PMLago Are we going to apply the 30% moving accuracy for garrisoned squads to all open top halftracks? That's an important change for consistency. +1 At the very least add the 250 HT to this list. Stormtroopers doing drive-bys are just as every bit as potent as Calvary Rifles in Dodge IMO In: Lobby
Thread: Lend Lease Assault Quad Rush10 May 2019, 18:48 PM Jump back to quoted post10 May 2019, 18:43 PMJPA32 I'm not sure if this is as scary as it appears. Without Bolster or Nades Tommies just get smashed by anything that looks at them funny. I don't know if you'd be able to maintain map control required for the fast 55 Fuel to make this strategy work when your mainline infantry all get pushed off the field. Might depend on if you're on a good map for early game turtling and can get a good Vickers up in a defensible position near the Fuel. This was my thought as well. Honestly I don't know if giving up early bolster to rush M5 is worth (especially given the munitions investment and the fact that I don't feel like the quad mount even after the buff is especially dangerous).

Thread: Guards assault group10 May 2019, 13:23 PM Was hoping that they would count the Airborne Guards as Assault Guards so that the Assault Group Guards could sneak into scope but alas it wasn't meant to be. Sucks because with the recent changes to DSHK and M4C Lend Lease has the chance to be relevant. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Some Love to OST9 May 2019, 16:27 PM Jump back to quoted post8 May 2019, 20:02 PMIncendiaryRounds CLOSE THIS THREAD. JUST WAIT FOR THE PATCH. ^^^^^^^ Seriously. Buffs to Pgrens, StuG, Ostwind... not to mention all the doctrinal stuff that's getting fixed via Strategic Reserves. Why are we even talking about move love for Ost when there is already a fairly good chance that skipping Tier 1 strategies could be very strong now and whatever other fallout there may be from patch.

Thread: NEW COMMANDER PREVIEW - 7.0 version9 May 2019, 14:49 PM Minor bug in 8.0 (if the Mod team is paying attention to this thread). The M5 in Tactical Support Company currently doesn't work - you are unable to call it in because it says "Population Cap reached" even if you are below 100. Not a huge deal but it would be nice to try buffed M5 with USF. In: Lobby
Thread: Conscripts idea "Human Wave Tactics"8 May 2019, 19:18 PM Sure, would be great for all those brain dead players who can't micro to avoid squad wipes. Definitely won't have any negative repercussions there! In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Universal carrier rework thread7 May 2019, 19:33 PM The proposed armor nerfs might be more palatable if the UC gained back some/all/more of the armor/HP after you upgrade Vickers/WASP. You can tinker with upgrade costs to reflect the power spike (maybe re-gating Vickers behind T2 if needed). That way you can have early UC for build diversity and flexibility but can still be forced away by small arms but you can always build one later and upgrade but not have it die to swift breeze (or be a meme like WASP).

Thread: UKF Core changes commander Revamp Patch7 May 2019, 13:12 PM Buffing Wasp damage but adding fuel cost is an interesting idea. On one hand it justifies a buff but on the other sinking fuel into it might deter people from using it unless the damage buff is pretty substantial. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: AT infantry section6 May 2019, 18:48 PM They are definitely part of the "nerfed into uselessness" category now. I think Critical Shot at the very least would give them more utility but they definitely need something. Another idea would be to give them a Heavy Gammon Bomb that works like AT Satchel so they still have a snare but it's a heavier version. Allowing them to have upgrades again would help too.

Thread: UKF Core changes commander Revamp Patch6 May 2019, 13:50 PM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 12:10 PMCombatWombat Gueniue question, but why is the UC been targeted for nerfs? It's pretty strong vs. OKW in early game since they don't have Fausts - you generally have to rely on preemptive Raketen + luck with actually hitting it. Even with OST on maps like Crossing in the Woods it's almost impossible to Faust and you just bleed MP like crazy until counter comes out. Combined with the already effective Section Spam meta it can be pretty rough. You definitely need to be able to scare it off with small arms a bit better than currently but they'll need to fine tune the nerfs so that it doesn't become useless (IMO Wasp is already pretty UP so you do need that early game utility) In: COH2 Balance
