Thread: Is the AVRE OP or do I just think it's OP because...10 Sep 2015, 22:52 PM Regardless of balance you guys should check out the game below. Giap does an awesome job countering the AVRE as OKW vs dbmb. http://www.twitch.tv/dbmb_/v/15350562 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: New Commanders Release10 Sep 2015, 19:57 PM I would be very surprised to see anything before OCF, they are probably just focusing on the patch. My guess is at some point later in the year to cash in on holidays, but who knows. In: Lobby
Thread: New patch map vetoes10 Sep 2015, 17:59 PM That does help momo, thanks for taking the time to reply. Kholodny Winter doesn't usually give me too much trouble since it is at the very least a very predictable map going against OH. In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: Pak40 to T1 - it's needed.10 Sep 2015, 16:54 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Sep 2015, 16:45 PMRifleman89 Don't you think I, the player, should be given the opportunity to make that choice AS a PAYSTYLE that I can't do now because of the upgrade and high cost? When by what I see in the games i watch and play it, there are many times I wish I had that choice. In 2v2s where one is OKW and the other OH, an early Racketten makes a big difference. And how may times has the 3rd or 4th unit on the field of a Russian player been a zis gun? It's ok for russians but not OH?? hmmmmm. Not at all. All factions are designed differently and the arguments that other factions have it so OH should as well is just lazy. Again, windows of opportunity for light vehicle play are intended and healthy design choices, you should not have a hard counter to everything at all points in the game. It's not like you have 0 counter-play options. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Pak40 to T1 - it's needed.10 Sep 2015, 16:38 PM Not needed at all, OH already has plenty of tools to deal with early vehicle play. You shouldn't need a hard counter for everything that could possibly get thrown at you at all points in the game, there should be windows of opportunities for light vehicles you know. Why would you even want to spend the manpower on a Pak that early anyway when cheaper options are available? You'd basically just be giving up map presence for the hope of catching a light vehicle off-position enough to get 2 shots off... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Pacific Front10 Sep 2015, 14:58 PM It could work, but I feel the design choices alone might be too much trouble to balance around. Afrika Korps on the other hand should almost be a layup for Relic considering how much gameplay and design they can borrow from existing German factions while maybe sprinkling some Italian units in there. I'd also like to see Romanian/Hungarian/Bulgarian units represented somehow for the sake of historical accuracy in the Eastern Front, but not sure how they'd fit in a new faction. In: Lobby
Thread: Is the AVRE OP or do I just think it's OP because...10 Sep 2015, 14:51 PM Ugh I hate the premise of both units, I wouldn't mind at all if they were both nerfed to oblivion and delegated to compstomp/novelty unit status. No idea why it matters which one is better by the way, the mechanic itself is awful for a game that is suppose to reward unit preservation. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Community effort to create native language option9 Sep 2015, 20:22 PM I'd love to see this happen. It'd definitely need to be added as optional in the in-game menu however. Some in-game sounds like grenade warnings do affect gameplay and it might confuse some folks. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: P4 against the brits9 Sep 2015, 19:52 PM I've found very little use of the P4 against UKF as well. Unless you can dominate fuel early game (certainly possible) and rush it I just don't see the real value of getting a P4 out instead of going for a Stug or waiting for something bigger. I've been playing ostheer vs UKF with the same mentality that I use for USF against ostheer - hit them as early and as hard as possible and spend your fuel to preemptively counter their armor instead of relying on medium tanks to do damage.

Thread: Brace in Balance Preview Mod9 Sep 2015, 19:38 PM At the risk of it being buried under dozens more posts about this I'd like to suggest a different mechanic entirely: Nerf brace duration (obviously) while actually allowing the emplacement structure to be decrewed at 0% health instead of destroyed entirely. Once it is decrewed it could take a bunch more shots before it is destroyed entirely, much like all other indirect fire weapons. This would allow for counter play for both UKF (defending veterancy, not wasting resources to recrew) and Axis (sniping the emplacement to stop it temporarily and removing veterancy) without the major all-or-nothing approach of dying too easily or being almost impossible to take down.
