Thread: British infantry sections25 Feb 2018, 08:54 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Feb 2018, 08:46 AMFiresparks My numbers are from Relic's official mod tool, freely available on steam to anyone who own Coh2. You can check it yourself if you doubt it. seems like cruzz's number simply do not agree with Relic's. Jump back to quoted post25 Feb 2018, 05:29 AMFiresparks and the commandos bren is the second most powerful lmg in the game, being about ~50% more powerful than the lmg42 on the grenadier. They do not seem to agree with those either: commando_bren_lmg_moving_mp---6.8/8.6/10.4/12.0 grenadier_mg42lmg_mp-----------------6.3/7.6/8.6/9.3 ratio---------------------------------------1.1/1.1/1.2/1.3 Commandos bren is simply not "~50% more powerful than the lmg42 on the grenadier" In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW infantry anti-tank is not sufficient25 Feb 2018, 08:47 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Feb 2018, 08:37 AMFiresparks Being able to establish "td dominance" over the allies means your heavy tank can fight more effectively. This is especially in team game since the allies will be fielding their TD en mass to fight the heavy tank. Having your own 60m TD to fight back is invaluable since you don't have to risk diving in and the Jp4 is especially good for killing other TD. The only reason JP4 is invaluable is the purpose of this thread: OKW luck a 60 range ATG or sufficient AT infantry to destroy enemy TDs. I am not sure what is your point, since in your opinion JP4 should be cheaper which I agree. I have posted my opinion that JP4 is ok unit, too expensive to counter medium with too low penetration to fight Super heavies. It ok for pushing of allied TDs and that is about it. Its armor and size give it only a slight advantage since allied TDs have enough penetration and accuracy to hit and penetrate. In: COH2 Balance

Your number simply do not agree with Cruzz's. DPS 0/20/35 grenadier_mg42lmg_mp 4.5/6.5/7.1 commando_bren_lmg_moving_mp 4.9/7.9/9.6 obersoldaten_mg34_lmg_moving_no_prone_mp 7.1/10.3/11.4 Bren on commandos are great.

Thread: OKW infantry anti-tank is not sufficient24 Feb 2018, 22:47 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Feb 2018, 22:40 PMKatitof OKW pays extra 25 fuel for all medium vehicles and up for the vet5 system as well as for its fuel starved theme. Vet5 might not give raw stats anymore, but you are still getting more utilities then equivalent units. A great theory from Katitof , but unless it written somewhere from Relic it did not happen. Jump back to quoted post24 Feb 2018, 22:40 PMKatitof How long does it last again? I know you trouble with game mechanics and stats, but pls don't ask me find for you you can simply check yourself be reading the patch notes. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: British infantry sections24 Feb 2018, 22:39 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Feb 2018, 20:05 PMFiresparks logically they would have limit the bren at the same time as the m1919. only elite infantry like the airborne or commandos should get double LMG. the Ober's lmg34 is basically a double lmg. Ober's Lmg got doubled nerf. Now a little better than the commandos bren (around 19%) while costing more and limited to 1. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW infantry anti-tank is not sufficient24 Feb 2018, 22:27 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Feb 2018, 19:27 PMFiresparks and actually let's look at FF vs jp4 accuracy at 45m FF size: 23 jp4: 17 FF accu at 45: .05 (x1.10) = .055 Jp4 accu at 45: .045 FF vs jp4 = .055 * 17 = .935 (.85 if no tank commander upgrade) Jp4 vs FF= .045 * 23 = 1.035 even with the tank commander, the Jp4 have an accuracy advantage over the Firefly. it is statistically impossible for a stationary jp4 to miss the firefly at 45m. The value of TD is on how it fight other TDs but how well it counter tanks. JP is a decent units, but it is very expensive (in tech cost,cost and pop) for countering mediums and luck penetration vs heavily armored vehicles. You claimed the JP has serious advantage due to its target size and armor but the number you provide show a slight advantage 6.5% that becomes even less when one factor in collision hits. As for the DPS of FF you also underestimate it: JP vs IS-2 time to kill vet 0 65.25 - 85.25 vet 3 50.74 - 66.27 FF vs KT vet 0 82.75 - 107.50 vet 3 37.75 - 56.50 Firefly (Tulip) vet 0 66.25 - 91.00 vet 3 31.50 - 44.00 (number might be a bit off since the patch) I am not sure what you point is thou. FF does not need to have the high accuracy its has. It does not need to have mid range longer than Elephant and JT and it does not need an extra x130% at vet making able to "score" hit reliably even vs kubel. FF is does not have a mobility that far worse than JP4 while it has access to "warspeed", 45 S radius 360 vision and access to hammer tracking. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: British infantry sections24 Feb 2018, 13:11 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Feb 2018, 12:51 PMA table Do British IS need 5 men... The problem is not that they have 5 member but that they have access to LMGs and especially 2. LMGs should be restricted to 4 men squad only (at least for non elite infantry). That could be fixed by changing the bren to a weapon closer to assault rifle similar to bad instead of an LMG. They could still have the option for Vicker-K as LMG but that should only be available to 4 men squads. Imo the weapon that can picked from racks should also become less effective but cheaper. Finally a system should be introduced so that weapon become less effective in the hands of cheaper squads. That could be achieved either by implementing the UKF system of different weapon versions (see bren), or by introducing penalties/bonus to these weapons (a bit like Ostruppen solution for lmg).

Thread: Rear armor of some vehicles needs to be reduced23 Feb 2018, 18:57 PM Lets try to forget Panther/ Allied TDs and focus on Tanks that have a rear armor as high as Ostheer P4 frontal armor making flanking not rewarding enough. In: Lobby
