Thread: Convince me that it's a bad idea with a 1 sniper limit22 Jan 2019, 09:26 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Jan 2019, 09:22 AMOsinyagov Core teching is something, that was designed for faction to be used in unlimited numbers. I agree about limits for doctrine units, but basic stuff (snipers too) should be limited only by popcap. I agree that it's not something that should be overdone, but technically non doctrinal limit allready applies to another unit - The KT. And yes, I know that's an entirely different ball park, but I do feel like some things reward lazy play that let's you punch above your weight without much effort. But overall I see the point that this argument could be made in many instances. In: COH2 Balance

I think going for 2 snipers in this patch is actually a very bad idea with all the potent light vehicles and camo units in the game currently. I think a lot of players get overly focused on the snipers and a desire to kill them outright. I hate to say this and its very map dependent of course, but, i think this problem can be solved with some changes in play. You are no doubt completely right that this is a L2P issue and that it can be countered and beaten (and I often do). However, my point is that much like old (and to some extend still existing) Sim City strategy could be countered, playing against it is a drag, requires somewhat low effort to pull off and generally reduce the enjoyment of playing the game. I'm all for diverse opening and strategies and don't want to tie people down into a bottleneck strategies, but I honestly don't feel like the game would lose some truly enjoyable plays if more was done to weed out these "troll strategies".

Snipers have the ability to eliminate a single model for a small munitions cost(10-15) with a lengthy cooldown-30 seconds to a minute, reduced by vet. Give snipers shared veterancy. Reduce sniper cost to 120 mp and 3 supply, making them a cheap spotting unit for recon with limited on call combat capability. I suppose this could be a solution as well. But I think that a 1 man cap would work too. That way they could remain a strategically viable asset, but without the possibility to completely cripple a gren squad in a matter of seconds.

Not to speak of elite infantry. Deal? nope Or I mean, it depends on what you think the limit should be and why. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Convince me that it's a bad idea with a 1 sniper limit21 Jan 2019, 21:23 PM Yup I'm writing this while I'm salty and tilted But seriously though, I've had four matches tonight where people have gone with at least two snipers at the same time. I've won some of them and lost others, but what they all had in common is that it's such an unfunny and annoying thing to fight against, especially for factions with small squad sizes. I know that they take a lot of micro and are big investments, but honestly a-moving two snipers around the map is not that much more difficult and can take an enormous strain on the opponent with really agressive deep dives. I would never dream of going double sniper because it sets you up for a really boring rigid play of plucking away opponents manpower at a low effort double rate. After playing against this match after match after gardening match all night I really think they should have a limit of 1 on the field at the time for each player. But perhaps I'm just spitting salt here In: COH2 Balance

Ostheer can get only one heavy tank right? But brits, they can get 3 churchills and butt fuck everything on the field. The churchill is legit a counter to everything as so are soviet guards. My point stands. It stands you say? Have you tried testing a churchill against a Tiger in 1v1? After that I think you would agree that it's more comparable to a panther and how many of these are the germans allowed to have? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: How would you like the JLI to be nerfed?21 Jan 2019, 14:54 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Jan 2019, 14:43 PMPremium_Hacker Yeah, worst performing faction lmao. Tell me so wise one, why can british have more than one churchill, and germans can only have a single underperforming tiger. What about the infantry section spam that barely drop off any dps regarding range. I suck? Maybe you just are ill-informed and ignorant, buut hey thats trolls for ya. I would disagree that the Brits are the worst performing faction in the game at the moment, but they sure as hell used to be and the main reason they are workable now is because of the non-doctrinal acess to snares. Are you seriously comparing a normal Churchill to a Tiger tank? If that's the case then I'm not sure that even dignifies an answer.

Thread: How would you like the JLI to be nerfed?19 Jan 2019, 17:57 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Jan 2019, 21:59 PMthedarkarmadillo Not saying they are right but comparing JLI and pathfinders (as the only 2 non sniper units with death crits) all the points go to JLI from durability to utility to offensive capability even getting them on the field is easier... It's kinda hard to not think such a thing when they are so obviously overbuffed, and thus far without so much as a bandaid on their performance like other overperforming things released at the same time. A simple price increase would be enough to lessen the literal cancer they are bringing to the game. But here we are and here they are and nowhere to be seen is any attempt to fix them thus far. It seems we are in agreement. Pathfinders are performing acceptable, while JLI need to be nerfed primarily on price. In: COH2 Balance
