If Imo an allied unit is over-nerfed in this patch or an axis units over-buffed will surely comment on it. If in you opinion there such a change in the current patch pls let me know so I can check into it. In: Lobby
Thread: HMG-34 in DPP 6 Nov 2017, 15:16 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 14:40 PMEtherealDragon I don't understand... the crew's DPS has nothing to do with the performance of the MG-34 as a HMG/suppression platform - in that regard it's performance is the same. If you are setting up your HMG by itself and relying on the Crew's DPS to force retreats then you're doing it waaay wrong. I don't see how this justifies OKW basically getting 3 extra Volksgrenadier models along with their support support - it'd be like someone bitching about the live version Maxim now and suggesting that the crew gets buffed to Conscript levels to compensate. Think of it another way. The HMG34 squad has the lowest DPS in the far ranges compared to any other HMG and with the patch that DPS drops even more. I would suggest that you test the HMG34 in the Patch and see its performance in the far ranges. Then share your experience. If a units does not do damage some damage that unit will have a difficult time gaining experience unless it used as meatshield. In: Lobby
Thread: DBP USF thread6 Nov 2017, 13:59 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 13:34 PMEsxile On a 2vs2 with another player supporting you, and using a new feature (RE smokenade) to see if it works. It works too well doesn't mean that RE without smoke are good. RE are carrying flamethrowers since more than a year with the Riflemen Doctrine. Have you ever see a spam RE+flamethrower taking place since then? no. Do you think nobody thought about it and try it? Of course people tried it, and of course it doesn't work well so nobody does it. And the fact remains that RE are not the "overexpensive trash" you described. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Stuka dive bombing in DBP6 Nov 2017, 13:56 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 13:52 PMBIH_kirov_QC with the new changes to AA half tracks, trust me the il-2 planes are destroyed very fastly. The performance of the IL-2 is quite irrelevant to the topic of this thread. Have you tested the Dive bombing in DBP? What are you though on the ability. In: Lobby
Thread: HMG-34 in DPP 6 Nov 2017, 13:52 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 13:32 PMHighfiveeeee Wow, this thread attracts all the CoH2.org Axis fanboys like light attracts moths. Have you tested the HMG34 in the DBP? what are your thoughts on its performance. Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 13:39 PMRedT3rror It's quite funny how Vipper uses the crew nerf as an argument to buff the MG itself. What is actually funny is that crew in live has actually more DPS at far range than the gun itself. Thus reducing the crews DPS one actually reduces the performance of the gun itself. Have you tested the HMG34 in the DBP? what are your thoughts on its performance. In: Lobby
Thread: HMG-34 in DPP 6 Nov 2017, 12:36 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 12:05 PMMr.Smith Along with original crew DPS drop, there comes a reinforcement cost decrease. From 25MP to 22MP per model. The quality of the patchnotes is not up-to-par. Thus, can you please also test your claims in game, before making a new thread about each issue? I can confirm that reinforcement cost is at 22 the same as HMG-42 and more than Dhsk at 20, still too high. I did test HMG34 in the game but missed the reinforcement cost change, will try to do better next time. Can the people making the patch notes try to make them a bit better? Imo the most annoying thing about the patchs Relic made in the past was the "ninja" changes like this one. Maybe move the change from "bug" to balance in the patch notes? In: Lobby
Thread: DBP USF thread6 Nov 2017, 12:08 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 11:39 AMEsxile They are, if you need to build 10 of them to do something useful, then their is a problem. And if Hector didn't see it coming, he also has a problem but that's not the game fault. Try building 10 Pioneer, 10 CE or 10 SP and test how well its going to work for you. Having strategies that allow cheap units to be spammed and actually being effective creates more problems than it actually solves. Engineer type units imo, should augment core infantry units and provide utility and NOT be able to replace them. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: HMG-34 in DPP 6 Nov 2017, 11:27 AM Damage per bullet: hmg34=2 Hmg43=4 maxim=4 Vickers=4 Dshk=10 m2hb=16 It will also be helpful if we had any idea on what the new DPS is for the crew. In: Lobby
Thread: Stuka dive bombing in DBP6 Nov 2017, 11:08 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 11:04 AMvasa1719 Its arguments about damage, but what if this units are not vs tanks, but vs arty, at guns or blob, with what arty EZ to kill infatry or at guns, wiht soviet il-2 where are smoke or dive bomb ? Kill radius can remain the same or even become smaller if needed even if the damage at point of impact is increased. The ability is frustrating both using and receiving, since it will usually either wipe out everything or simply creates a big hole. Increasing the mu cost simply increase the frustration of player using it if he 200 munition went into creating a crater. That is why imo it need some changes. As I pointed out many times comparing it to IL-2 (which more similar to fragmentation bombing)isn't helpful since they use different mechanism and the comparison derails the thread. Feel free to add your experiences from the ability in DBP weather you where in the giving or receiving end. In: Lobby
Thread: DBP USF thread6 Nov 2017, 08:31 AM Jump back to quoted post6 Nov 2017, 08:01 AMEsxile Did they have flamethrowers? if not, what's the point? The point would be to demonstrate that they are not the "overexpensive trash" you describe and if one is not careful RE can become the next plague for COH2. In: COH2 Gameplay
