Profile of Vipper

Ah yes what would I do without Coh2.orgs #1 Troll making yet another false claim as usual.

Ah yes once more you do not have any arguments and thus attack the person instead of the point.

Taken from the Developers/Path Notes Themselves


Vipper please stop trolling and making things up, you have a habit of making false claims. The MG-42 moving to HQ was mostly made to allow for Ostruppen builds to be more viable by being able to skip T1 and rush straight into T2 and had very little to do with USF. Also making an MG-42 from T1 would set you back like 15 seconds. If 15 seconds is the difference between losing and winning the match then its most likely a L2P issue.

From the same patch notes:

Show Spoiler

Now unless you want to argue that Ostheer did not receive major buffs because they could not cope with USF what you have post does not contradict what I posted.

USF owned Ostheer on release badly the same way OKW owned Soviet on release (only soviet come up with maxim spam to cope).

Anytime anyone brings up a legitimate concern about an allied unit you are almost always there to argue against it. You are basically the Fox News of COH2.Org with your nonstop Axis propaganda bias.


Meanwhile you post silly comments like this.

You are entitled to your own opinion despite how wrong it usually is 99% of the time (some things I do agree with you with such as how you made a great post in regards to different unit tiers like low quality infantry, mainline, elite or a cap on kills with Sturmtiger/Avre)

I want each faction to be equally good which is hard when people like yourself constantly troll every discussion that pops up. If you actually care about the game (which I assume everyone on this forum does) then take a moment to reflect upon your bias and how it negatively impacts the game when people such as yourself spew nonsense daily.

I want even bother responding to rest of toxic comment and I will simply say that you theory the USF where bad from release and only become worse with every patch is simply silly.

Here some stat proving you wrong:
https://www.coh2.org/news/102660/world-championship-match-stats#sov_meta

Highest win ration faction USF with 59%


https://www.coh2.org/news/92866/automatch-stats-factions-teams-and-maps#stat1v1
"In this article I will examine map and factions stats taken from automatch games that I retrieved from the 15th of December 2018 to the 19th March 2019."

"Overall, win percentages for all factions (see above) are pretty close to 50%. USF is most successful with an overall win percentage of about 52%, whereas OH seems to get the short end of the stick. On the allied side, the Soviets wins least. "

Even when USF first launched, before all of the nerfs took place playing as Axis USF were always the easiest Allied faction to deal with and the win rates were fairly even.

........

That is simply false. On release USF owned Osteer so bad that they had to move the mg42 to t 0

Can you come up with a redesign for them, i mean, seriously, it not likely the game with do that but im asking for ideal to use in my mod if possible.

Sure and feel free to contact me via pm if you want suggestions for other units/abilities.

Concept, redesing as reckon support unit:

cost/pop lower than VG to make it easier to fit in Army composition

cp1 call in or build in hq at cp 0

starts as 5 men squad, upgrades with an officer

weapons 5g43 + luger upgradable to mp40

changes:
g43 with weapon profile suited for long range fight

flares replaced by new ability "servey battle field" timed ability with no cost where officer gets focused site using binoculars

new ability " fire at will" timed ability with mu cost where g43 fire faster or even suppress similar to RE. Ability scales with veterancy.

possibly replace grenade with a rifle grenade similar to gren.

other options:
smoke barrage
incinerate barrage
HE barrage

the is idea the unit should be more about utility and less about fighting power and relay more on abilities so that it does not replace mainline infatry.

Generally speaking mainline doctrinal unit seem dificult to balance since they need to be worth the extra slot without being op. Imo one's best is to go for a unit that provides a difrent play style but even that might be dificult to pull.

75 mm Howitzer Motor Carriage M8 Scott history
From the very beginning of their involvement in the Second World War, the Americans faced the difficulty of advancing artillery at the same pace as tanks and infantry. Hence the idea of ​​self-propelled guns to provide continuous support to the assault units while allowing to reinforce the firepower during the fixed or defensive phases.

To the extent that this self-propelled cannon is not a battle tank, the emphasis is laid on its ability to move and of course on its firepower.
Let me put a orginal design of M8 Scott to you. As I said, it names is Howitzer Motor Carriage.
That why M8 scott in game stick in second line, provide Firepower to crow control over time for Rifleman to push up, ping down AT. And because it had to stay in second line meaning AT, Tank or tank hunter team can touch it. So the agruement " Hard to counter " is not a strong point.

In sort it is an assault gun, glad to see we got that out of the way.

It would probably be preferable to rebalance Ostheer tech costs as opposed to linearizing every faction as much as Ostheer.

It would preferable to set a single faction's tech as benchmark and adjust other faction to that pace than to continue messing around with each faction separately...
