Thread: Barbed wire building exit trap13 Jun 2021, 12:31 PM Press tab and right click the other side of the building (where there should be a door). You will then exit through that door. Now it's possible to create a trap on a one-door-only house like above but I don't think ppl consider it a real problem (prob due to the rarity of such houses), or at least when I brought it up in the past no one was really concerned.

Thread: KT is trash 11 Jun 2021, 18:15 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Jun 2021, 04:54 AMLewka I'm not even good and I know 3v3 and 4v4 is casual play Casual? Well we did have a recent (with money) 3v3 tournament featuring many of the regulars here. Members of the balance team also play 3v3 regularly at the top ranks too. I wouldn't say those ppl at the top 100 play casually, they take their games extremely seriously including yours truly. 4v4 is just a clusterfuck though and probably closer to what you were thinking yes.

Thread: What is new meta ?10 Jun 2021, 19:54 PM 4v4 will remain arty spam and SPG hell. People will still complain about LEFH being OP. Elefant and JT still tool of choice for shutting down Allied TDs. 3v3 will boil down to blobs and anti-blob tools/smoke. Med tank rush still meta. UKF will remain a meme in 1v1 and ppl still won't be able to handle volks behind sandbags In: Lobby

Thread: KT is trash 9 Jun 2021, 14:43 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Jun 2021, 11:44 AMaerafield No. A Spearhead King Tiger supported by 1-2 JP4s is almost unstoppable on lane maps. Just because you see people with bad micro send a single unsupported KT into 4 allied Tank Destroyers on Steppes map doesnt mean the unit is trash. This is another issue, of course it's stupid as hell to stall for a KT when the enemy has loads of tank destroyers. Get a JP4 (or on urban maps: panther) first, then you get the KT To be honest, if they have 4 TDs I'd personally suggest to just give up on armor (2 x JP4s or even JT will get deleted vs that line) and let them mill about in confusion/panic at the newly built rak AT guns.

Thread: KT is trash 9 Jun 2021, 10:12 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Jun 2021, 09:43 AMLMAO well atleast its better than the tiger. 4v4 average rank meta is either blob, med tank spam or td spam. You forgot weapons team and arty spam. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: KT is trash 8 Jun 2021, 08:41 AM Just camp in heavy urban and dare them to send their (no longer) extremely cost-effective TDs into range 45 corridors. Because it'll die fast there and the KT will just vet up. Problem solved. Use the right tool for the right job. You want to kill their TDs in open maps, then use your extremely cost effective anti-TD TDs. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Decrease wire build time7 Jun 2021, 19:10 PM Well let's see how the new IS + Volks wire building changes the meta before changing the wire build speed. Sandbags already are in a tenuous situation and now they'll have mainlines wiring off enemy sandbags. Imho I agree with CN that those squads are better off capping than trying to wire off a road/side path. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Advice for a noob needed: Blob control in team games6 Jun 2021, 11:33 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Jun 2021, 09:04 AMredfox This is true for 1v1 only I think. Also, in 1v1 I am not having problems with blobbing for the exact reason you mentioned - I just go where the blob is not and gain territory. However, teamgames are more often than not very lane-y and that just leaves me with the blob head on. So yeah, Katy rush and a T70 seems to be it. However, I do think it's not a very good concept that you can just blob in teamgames (very little micro, easy to execute) and your opponent (as ally) has to apply combined arms with a lot of micro. Some 3v3+ map examples where this also works: Essen - many side routes, angles due to the urban environment, especially on the left & rights areas where ppl are forced to split up for the fuel/VP/muni Steppes - probably the most notorious map, being the biggest in the automatch maps if not game La Gleize explains itself, esp with long retreat times and scattered points City 17 I veto but it's got so many alternate paths that you can cap muni next to the enemy base without running into issues Blobbing I dislike but it is what it is. It works for Axis players dealing with Allies too, if we don't want to blob. Sometimes I've felt like I'm being penalised for using combined arms to stop USF/UKF blobs. You have no infantry that can go toe-to-toe with an LMG blob until Obers arrive and maybe Pzgrens. Katy is your go to yes, I'm just giving advice to increase pressure on them/decrease pressure on you before you get to T4. If your army's been battered and an Auf J's rolling at you, it won't matter how good your Katy skills are. In: COH2 Gameplay
