Thread: Turbo Obers; Remove IS cover bonuses13 Nov 2015, 01:19 AM A new account spamming anti-allied, pro-axis threads. How surprising. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: P4 Command tank aura is too strong.12 Nov 2015, 02:04 AM Hey, just chiming in on my 2 cents. Jump back to quoted post12 Nov 2015, 01:36 AMNapalm The Aura is fair. This is a unique, team lead sort of unit. Then wouldn't it be more fair if the team lead did not receive the buff, like it does currently? I think that's a fantastic fix for the command p4. Jump back to quoted post12 Nov 2015, 01:46 AMGbpirate P4 command tank gives 20% damage reduction to units in the aura. Essentially, units have 120% HP. It's nice if you have nothing heavier than a Panther to take on an IS2, for example. I read about this somewhere a few months ago on these very forums that rang true with me. It may be 120% hp, but think about the time to kill a tank that is affected by the command aura. If a standard p4 has 640 hp, and with the command aura that hp becomes 640 + 128 = 768, then the shots it takes to kill that p4 goes from 4 --> 5. That means the unit's effective hp is 125% because it takes 25% more time to kill the unit with the aura than without it. The buff is stronger than just the stats. Like I said, I'd be in favor of removing the buff on the command p4 only. It makes "focusing the leader" viable, whereas right now, not so much. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The long forgotten Soviet. 8 Nov 2015, 19:23 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Nov 2015, 19:07 PMElSlayer Why not? Double SU-85 able to stop any heavy tank in the game except JT. In large team games there is plenty of targets for your SU-85 so it is possible to get at least one of them to vet 3. They are not fragile if used defensively, on max range (just as intended). And it is not like you need to roll out both at once. In my 4v4 games I usually build first one, then build 2 Katys, then build second one. If OKW player have built JgPz.IV as first vehicle - he will not get any other vehicle any time soon. You don't need to deal with it right away, just invest more into infantry and indirect fire units so you won't have to fight it. By the way, I'm talking from 4v4 perspective. I don't think that for 4v4 format Soviet T4 needs buffs. But I should admit that I don't see SU-85 in 1v1s. Well, thanks for the honest advice, I guess, but I still stand by my opinion that t4 needs buffs. Right now I'm farming war spoils on pepperidge farm so I gave it a few more trials. In 10 or so battles, JP IV has never missed or bounced a shot, whereas an SU-85's performance would go something like this: Bounce... bounce... hit... bounce... miss... hit... miss... miss... It's seriously pathetic for an end-game, 120 fuel TD. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: King Tiger 8 Nov 2015, 18:55 PM Yeah, its old frontal armor was cancerous. There should be an upper limit to how high a heavy tank's stats go, and KT is it. I hate heavy tank meta. In: Lobby
Thread: The long forgotten Soviet. 8 Nov 2015, 18:52 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Nov 2015, 18:32 PMElSlayer Still SU-85 is more cost effective than JgPz.IV considering OKW fuel penalty. 2xSU-85 will force JgPz.IV to retreat. Sure, just let me sink 240 fuel on fragile TDs, miraculously find enough tanks to kill to get both of them to vet 3 while not dying due to not having fuel for anything else! That's totally worth the investment for soviets to have the AT power of one JP IV! End line, soviet t4 needs buffs. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: The long forgotten Soviet. 8 Nov 2015, 18:22 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Nov 2015, 18:14 PMElSlayer SU-85 is amazing in its role. Self-spot, long range, enough pen, outstanding DPS once vet 2 or higher, easy to vet. Do you think giving non-doc LMG would improve Soviet gameplay? IMO it will ruin it. In my tests, a vet 3 SU-85 regularly loses to a vet 0 jagdpanzer IV. Its penetration is shit and even though it fired 3x faster, almost all shots bounce. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: A buff to KV-1 HP needed8 Nov 2015, 18:12 PM Maybe 1000 hp, given its 145 fuel cost and shit gun. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Rear Armour needs to be nerfed - Across the board8 Nov 2015, 18:11 PM Although I think reviving years-old threads is dumb as shit, I agree with nerfing rear armor across the board since it continues to be a problem to this day. Counterplay is the quintessence of good strategy, and massive rear armor inhibits that. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The long forgotten Soviet. 8 Nov 2015, 18:08 PM Agreed with horrible veterancy, but besides that the only changes SU needs are changes to its t4 and t4 units to make them more accessible and usable. They are fine everywhere else. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Obersoldaten and stuff7 Nov 2015, 02:55 AM Who decides that it's a good idea to find years-old threads and posts like it's recent? People who do that are dumb as bricks, or there is something in their brains that I will never understand. In: COH2 Balance
