If you saw Hector's "New Soviet Meta Analysis" players start by building 3 Combat Engineers (one to build Tier 1 to build Penals, the other two to cap and take control of vital garrisons). If you replace this ability with Hit the Dirt, it would be even more useless. On the other hand. if you replaced this ability with Rapid Conscription, this commander would become truly overpowered. Lose Penal models during engagements for free Conscripts, which you can use to Merge, thus saving Manpower when reinforcing your units. With extra MP you can build Caches to get out even more M4Cs (and perhaps an extra few Combat Engineers). In my opinion, this commander in the same place that Guard Motor was last meta. "Very strong". Not broken, just the new "cheese". Personally I'd like to see a ballsy overhaul of all factions that gives each faction 6 commanders, each with 6 abilities, balanced in a way that they are all viable for 90% of the playerbase. First 3 combat engis and tier 1 before you even get your first penal?? Is that really the best soviet meta (for lend lease)? I should of stated that this would be in reference to the Fredbrick vs Tailsman Tourney Games (4 & 5). Tailsman didnt go 3 or 4 combat engineers. In honesty why would he? once you get to cp4 or cp6 and you unlock the Conscript repair ability. Second hit the dirt or rapid conscription are just examples. What i meant to say is to just replace it with something else. But IF the best build for lend lease is 3 engis then yeah replacing the ability won't fix the commander (or give better choices to go a different commander depending on the circumstances) I like your ideas about 6 commanders and 6 abilities but that seems like a COH3 idea (little late in the coh2 life to make that change) but for now I think USF/BRIT/OKW could use more commanders (but it might be too late for that too). When Elite Troops had the automatic veterancy ability the fix was to replace the ability with the g43 rifle and not to nerf the whole faction. But having another day to think about it the M4C Sherman needs a slight nerf to maybe its reload or splash dmg imo. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Lend Lease is completely broken15 May 2017, 04:37 AM What about removing the conscript repair ability and replace it with "hit the dirt" or "rapid conscription"? That way you have to build more than one engineer (which removes the abundance of merge from conscripts). Russian conscripts repairing american made tanks sounds kind of um, uh... "romantic". Having three or four Sherman's out on the field without enough engineers to repair them would be a big problem that the player would have to deal with (and the opponent to seize on) during the match. I believe changing this one ability will fix the balance of this commander WITHOUT nerfing or removing its core strategy/idea. Thoughts? Also fixing Prisoners ( Penals/Cheap Guards now ) from having AT rifles might need to happen as well but that's for a different Post. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Relic wants your vote about balance15 Oct 2016, 07:57 AM Jump back to quoted post15 Oct 2016, 07:13 AMskemshead I'm guessing your new here. Because that was my first post? Yes new to posts on the forums but I remember patches coming out once a month or couple months depending on the situation but now they only push an update for you to buy skins (I like some of the original skins but some of the new ones are just bad. Good that some of the money went to the Champ and runner up (and of course the people who made the skins) but the war paint finals honestly just not what I wanted to see (DevM vs. Noggano instead of Jesulin) and because of the problems with the balance. All I want is an update from Relic saying we are working on it and this is the time frame where we think the update will be ready to be pushed out. Otherwise Just let GGMachine Mod fly and have the community take over with the mod and patches/updates. In: Lobby
Thread: Relic wants your vote about balance15 Oct 2016, 07:01 AM Make on the back-foot call-ins expensive (+50 or +100 Manpower +25 fuel?) so that a choice has to be made on grinding through to tech up or outplay opponent with costly call-in. Replace OST Gren Vet 1 heal with option for Camo upgrade but 20 ammo instead of 30. Fix American Mortar or replace with LT 1 howitzer. Stuart has abilities unlock with vet 1. Russian Snares and Partisan Snares piercing through the Front of 185 mm armor Tiger2 to damage engine??? Never should happen from front. OST Scout Car Less armor or health. Scouting areas, finding/revealing snipers and maybe shooting down a plane not having 2 or 3 spam rush you into a base killing everyone inside. Snipers never ever miss a shot? They can miss someone on retreat but can't miss if in heavy cover firing at the sniper or the target moving while firing Sniper firing at Target on the move regardless of finding cover or retreat 60 or 65% Vet 1 75% Vet 2 85% Vet 3 95% Sniper less manpower if accuracy change is made. Penal Veterancy needs to be fixed. I don't know why we can't have a weekly or bi-monthly update where stats are adjusted slightly instead of massive changes every 4-5 months. In: Lobby
