"Extended Vision" being perhaps the only genuinely fair comment in his post. Your point was even dumber. If only Soviet had access to scout vehicle with 50 sight that can also protect the sniper from kubels or if only the Soviet sniper had access to something that provided him with extra vision like a flare.

Thread: sniper idea24 Nov 2022, 17:02 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2022, 16:59 PMKatukov I'm sorry but a sniper retreating towards, through and away from basically all SMG squads will die a horrible death snipers are already fragile as they are, stuff like lmg grens and jli get to basically execute them in a burst or two. Increased hit size means that wehr players will have an easier time suicide rushing a 222 into sniper Some people and their usual biased rant. Suggestion to increase size of all snipers = buff to wehr (after all it is a well know fact that only wehr players have access to light vehicles to kill snipers.) In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: sniper idea24 Nov 2022, 13:29 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2022, 12:54 PMaerafield Snipers would be fixed imo if you would actually get punished for getting caught out of position. If a sniper can retreat directly through assault grenadiers or two rifle units and still survive, something is just wrong. Just increase target size to let's say a value between 1.5 and 2.0 and call it a day Wouldn't even mind if all offensive nerfs to snipers get reverted in exchange That might "fix" the retreat issue but would make sniper die form single volley from a mainline infatry/hmg... If retreat is the problem in your opinion it is easier to change the retreat bonuses. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: sniper idea24 Nov 2022, 12:42 PM Sniper should be a counter to support weapon not infatry. I would rather have the sniper ability replaced by either damage or Pathfinder/JLI type of critical kill and the ability to snipe team weapon crews or to have to set as static "support weapon" in order to snipe.

Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?24 Nov 2022, 09:30 AM Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2022, 00:15 AMPedro_Jedi I see way too much sarcasm for so little excuse of a response. And yet you respond only to a part of my post which is in a parenthesis ignoring the important points. Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2022, 00:15 AMPedro_Jedi Tech is not cost that should be considered - OKW can tech really fast and it isn't a hinderance. Also, you'll and should do it as fast as possible. Yes it is hindrance, Pathfinder come out with critical kills before minute one while JLI get that later. That contributes to Pathfinders gaining veterancy much faster. Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2022, 00:15 AMPedro_Jedi About the cost - really? I'd pay those 60muni for the crit any day over free paths. Only they get 2 sniper rifles for "free" while JLI would pay for one with your suggestions. In sort what you have suggested would not make things "way more balanced" on the contrary. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?23 Nov 2022, 14:25 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Nov 2022, 21:52 PMPedro_Jedi JLI should have the threshold for critslowered to 40% health, like Paths. Also, they should lose the sprint. With these 2 adjustments, they'd be way more balanced In sort Pathfinder should get 2 for free and OKW should pay 60 munition (and tech cost) for one, yes that sounds "way more balanced".

Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?21 Nov 2022, 15:30 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Nov 2022, 01:34 AMrumartinez89 ... None of the these theoretical examples can provide any meaningful way of comparing JLI with Pathfinder for a number of reasons: 1) Half the squads you mention have no reason to keep fighting long distance and will simply close in 2) Pathfinder are CP and can become mainline infatry JLI not so much 3) USF including Pathfinders have access to BARs that can spread damage to entities allowing easier criticals 4) Pathfinder earlier timing and lower XP value allow to vet much faster ... In sort Pathfinder are a problematic units anyway regardless of the performance of JLI. Jump back to quoted post21 Nov 2022, 01:34 AMrumartinez89 In the end I do agree, neither should be spammable or at the very least like you said making the sniper crit a timed ability would solve some of the issue. Nice to see that we agree. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?20 Nov 2022, 11:38 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Nov 2022, 15:43 PMrumartinez89 Thanks, do you know off hand what Pathfinder mid range is? JLI is 25 so they start with a narrow range of superior acc from 25-35(40 with Vet). But the capping only applies to DPS correct. For the sniper critical, DPS is not being calculated only the hit. So the extreme acc G43 has along with generally larger RA of Allied squad means each shot will hit and proper handling of the G43(targeting lower health squads) means each shot will work as a sniper 2.8DPS be damned. Your right, glass half full vs glass half empty. Compared to most if not all other squads save for IR Obers it is a bonus. Or just a smaller penalty. The ability to sprint allows an easy work around to reposition faster. All it really means is it is a bad chase squad. OKW has access to Obers or VG to chase while JLI crit. Personally I don't think they need a massive nerf, they just give a lot for CP1, make it CP2 like the other Elites and were good. The same at pathfinder_m1garand_scope_mp jaeger_light_recon_g43 Near/Mid/FAR 0/25/35 The better DPS of Carbine actually means that is fires faster (around 18%) since both weapon do the same damage. Pathfinders also get 2 carbine (with reckon getting one). Allied squads do not have larger Target size: conscript_squad_mp Target size: 1.09 volksgrenadier_mp Target size: 1 riflemen_squad_mp Target size: 0.97 grenadiers_mp Target size: 0.91 tommy_squad_mp Target size: 0.85 The critical kill mechanism should be a timed ability for all 3 unit and units with it should not be spammable.

Thread: Why does Overwatch(commander) exist?19 Nov 2022, 14:32 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Nov 2022, 11:06 AMrumartinez89 I know it is wrong, however to my knowledge G43 acc is superior at long range unless I am mistaken. Also Paths crit threshold is lower, they get no cover acc bonus nor garrison bonus. So serelia data has nothing to do with my post about their model snipe being better.( Unless I am wrong about the cover damage) pathfinder_m1garand_scope_mp DPS 1.8/2.2/2.5/3.3 acc 34.50%/57.50%/92% jaeger_light_recon_g43 DPS 2.2/2.5/2.7/2.8 acc 57.50%/92%/115% keep in mind accuracy is capped at 1 (not sure at what point of check) G43 has lower accuracy penalty vs cover not a bonus. It has really bad moving accuracy at 0.1. In: COH2 Balance
