Thread: Can we discuss the PIAT?14 Dec 2015, 12:34 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Dec 2015, 11:58 AMMaschinengewehr Bowing out, your point is made. ... How so? Especially since it would be included in a sidegrade. Can't see why that would be an issue considering USF can do the same with zooks and vet 1. I have made my suggestions for Piats in the a thread that I have provided the link. Will be happy to discuss any point made on proposed changes there... There is thread about UKF snare and because it is of topic will not debate the issue, sort answer thou: the combination of a AT snare, to some of the most power mainline infantry, effective piat against engine damaged vehicles, high AI, gamon bomb and powerful off maps, would simply make UKF Blobs too powerful...

Thread: Can we discuss the PIAT?14 Dec 2015, 11:43 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Dec 2015, 10:58 AMMaschinengewehr Oh so they have to run over a mine beforehand, or there mustn't be any sweepers around, or the other player must have chosen Spec Weapons for Boys AT for snares, or RNGesus has blessed an engine crit miracle out of nowhere? Or the PIATS are shooting at a bunker, truck or LeFH lol. This type of debate is completely nonconstructive and thus I will end from my part with this few points. The sniper critical ability will cause engine damage to all light vehicles, AT weapon that penetrate including Piats have a chance of causing engine damage so it does not take a miracle, in 2vs2 mode and above allied faction can use AT snares, Piat can dotrinally be given to other faction making very effective especially in conscripts. I.S. don't need a AT snare, that would cause more trouble than it would solve... Have a nice day. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can we discuss the PIAT?14 Dec 2015, 10:15 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Dec 2015, 10:11 AMMaschinengewehr Oh I've read it thankyou very much. So it's only effective against what, two or three specific units? Nurf naow pls! You are welcome. And most units that have their engine damaged and all stationary targets. Did you actually see many in this thread post asking it to be nerfed? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can we discuss the PIAT?14 Dec 2015, 10:04 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Dec 2015, 10:01 AMMaschinengewehr People calling for the PIAT to be nerfed... No wonder this game is a mess... People reply without bothering to reading and understand. No wonder this forum is mess... Piats are very efficient against large sized slow moving target, like the elephant and king tiger. It also very ineffective against fast small size targets.... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can we discuss the PIAT?14 Dec 2015, 09:53 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Dec 2015, 09:52 AMSwonVIP penetration is a joke. Piat blob killed my KT in 4seconds and 3min after an elephant in 5 seconds... working as intended It has probably more to do with the fact that Piat can score rear hit even when fired from the front and with high deflection damage, and less with penetration...

Thread: Can we discuss the PIAT?14 Dec 2015, 09:52 AM Imo the main issue is the luck of collision... I have made some suggestion in this thread: http://www.coh2.org/topic/45949/the-inconsistent-performance-of-piats In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Miragefla's December Balance Mod Additions14 Dec 2015, 09:44 AM Universal Carrier Consider increasing HP or armor and/or speed for MG upgrade to perform a bit better against kubels and 222. Valentine Consider further improvement of utility with Valentine being able to use base guns also to barrage. Assault Officer Allow a STG upgrade weapon for officer model or the squad to pick up weapons, unit vets too slow... Sdfkz 222 Consider if possible from a technical point of of view to panzerbuchse upgrade. This is historically correct since some 221 had their hmg replaced by panzerbuchse (or other AT weapons). If such upgrade boosted HP abit and made the vehicle able to fight light tank it would help Ostheer against T70 and Stuarts. OKW Flak Emplacement Increase crew to 3 or 4 currently losing 1 model decrews weapon. Or change to an emplacement similar to UKF that can not have its crew killed or be abounded. Not sure if this is fixed but due probably to height projectiles tented to collide allot with ground or world objects making correct placement essential to utility. If it is not fixed one can try to remove projectile completely. 222 has similar weapon with no projectile. Unit should have veterancy bonuses as other emplacements do Panther Command panther needs reduction also... In: Modding and Tools

I think 700 with everything is fine, especially since the RNG has been removed and you know what you will get. You're getting two paratrooper squads and the ATG you might as well consider a bonus. This ability has some issues that make unattractive: "Airdrop combat group" comes at CP 7 which more than double CP of most elite call in (almost 4 times in some cases), by that time a player probably has on the field as many infantry as he needs and even he just lost some squads and want to replace them he probably need 1 not 2 and ATG. Further more since they already come with AT weapons the ATG is more of liability than a bonus since it can be used by enemy if the ability is used in the front-line or has to be crewed by the airborne with a higher cost. In any case Coh2 offers a discount when someone buys units in bulk (ok free weapons can be considered a discount) but since the normal "airborne" come at CP 3 and cost 340 (680 for 2) this ability still is not very attractive. Jump back to quoted post12 Dec 2015, 18:30 PMmiragefla 6. Also on team weapons. No on increasing cost as these models have some of the worst weapons in the game and are as easy to hit as regular troops. Yes but there are extremely cheap to reinforce a maxim or Dshk model is 15 mp to reinforce compare to a conscript with 20 (33% more cost)... This change will promote support weapon spam since it will very cost efficient to reinforce such an army... I have a series of other suggestion that you might want to consider and if you are interested I can post them here... In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Miragefla's December Balance Mod Additions12 Dec 2015, 16:01 PM Changelog .14 Combat Support Group Remove ATG lower price to 650 or lower CP, the manpower it too much to save in late game.. KV-2 Remove damage penalty while changing modes, consider lowering price and CP (comes after IS-2 and ISU-152), change vet 3 bonus in siege mode, consider increasing limit 2 (suits industry) or removing completely...Maybe have Ostheer artillery piece weapon counter fire while in siege mode... Combat Blitz Make similar change to UKF "war speed ability", heavy tanks like Churchills and Comets should have similar treatment as tigers and panthers... Flak Emplacement Remove projectile it collide with world object to much reducing DPS considerably. MG34 HMG Team Lower reinforcement cost and XP value in line with other HMGs Let me know if any of my comments need more explanations...hope you find the comments helpful. In: Modding and Tools
