Thread: OKW faust and mg coming too late?2 Mar 2021, 18:11 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 17:21 PMSander93 The cost went up a bit to facilitate better backteching to medics. In practise however Faust/upgrade timing shouldn't be affected or may be even better because now you get to build the tech in multiple cheaper stages so you can get them online faster. You don't have to wait for all 25 fuel to start converting the HQ, you can now start converting it at 10 fuel and have it set itself up while accumulating the additional 20 fuel for the upgrade, likely resulting in an equal or even faster timing for the complete upgrade (unless you have very bad map control for the additional 5 fuel) compared to before. Though I haven't tested/timed this. The HMG unlock is bugged, it's supposed to unlock at the basic BGHQ so 15 fuel faster than before. Will be fixed. Are sure about the timing? Because you need to stop unit production to produce the Truck earlier... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Snare Inconsistency.2 Mar 2021, 16:50 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 16:45 PMPip .... Why is that good? It just makes snares (Which are an utility ability, not really a "damage" ability) less consistent. I don't think there's any real reason for them to not always output the damage they're meant to. It make armor matter. Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 16:45 PMPip Cooldown reductions for snares from vet could well just be removed, and they all just be standardised. Actually the system is ok, different get different vet bonuses. The only AT greande that need to be look at is RoE since it has sort range and long CD. Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 16:45 PMPip Which behaviour is that? That you still complete your snare even if you lose sight on the vehicle? Faust tend to cancel while AT grenades do not. This can be a real problem in map like wolfeze with bush shotblockers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Snare Inconsistency.2 Mar 2021, 16:35 PM Being able to bounce on armor is good. Comparing CD at vet 0 is rather misleading since certain units get CD bonus via veterancy. Not being able to kill vehicles is an oversight that should be removed. Behavior with smoke or shot blocker should also be fixed. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Current state of the IS-22 Mar 2021, 15:02 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 14:25 PMbambosh1 The point of this entire discussion, is that I want to make IS-2 stand out by increasing it's price and CP requirements and make it actually give a big punch with lower ROF. I want the tank to get an overhaul, and to be between Tiger level and Konigstiger level, because it's currently not viable in both 4v4s and 1v1s/2v2s. Just give the tank some love it deserves so it can be at least useful in team games like the Tiger is. And what make you think that KT is more cost efficient than Tiger? In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Current state of the IS-22 Mar 2021, 12:51 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 12:16 PMbambosh1 And why do you even say all of that? Because it is true. Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 12:16 PMbambosh1 Do you want Panther to 1v1 IS-2 because it has a high cost? It is not about what I want, it is about what the mod team has decided to do. And yes the mod team want the Panther to act as a stock counter to Super heavies like IS-2 Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 12:16 PMbambosh1 You can still make multiple Panthers and 2 Panthers will always win, Panther with proper support will win too, but single panther should get wrecked similary to a single Su-85 while fighting a Tiger. Panther is not a hard counter, it's very potent when used in a pair or with some other AT support. That's how the game works Yes you can make more than one Panther but above is not really advisable. In the other hand if player A build 2 Panther then player B could/should be able to field an IS-2 support by either SU-85 or multiple SU-76 or other ATG. The Tiger SU-85 analogy is simply misleading. SU-84 is cheaper than Panther and with Range 60. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Current state of the IS-22 Mar 2021, 12:08 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 11:51 AMKatitof By that logic, comets and churchills aren't spammable either and yet there were measures taken against spamming them. So I guess we can revert these changes, because both are too expensive and pop heavy to be spammable. The only thing that makes unit non spammable is unit limit. Great theory but once again false. I am pretty sure that a unit with 51 pop can not be spammed even without a unit limit so categorically NO, your theory is simply false. Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 11:51 AMKatitof Its not always good idea to spam some units, but to say they aren't spammable, when in the past we clearly had meta examples of spam of more expensive units means you're completely wrong as you're basing it on your very own definitions of what spam is. Panther is expensive, but its most certainly spammable. You're playing team games mostly so you know for a fact they are spammable and spammed, its baffling you even attempt to argue they aren't. Pop serves as anti spam measure. It is even in patch notes: "Panzer V Panther The Panther has received adjustments to make it more accessible in 1v1 but less attractive to field groups of Panthers in team games due to increased fire on the move penalties and increased population." Now I know that you feel a need to disagree with anything and everything I post, but I am sure the community is tired by it so I suggest you give it a rest. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Current state of the IS-22 Mar 2021, 11:41 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 11:39 AMbambosh1 High pen makes panther able to posses some treat to heavies. It should not 1v1 them, they are spammable for a reason. You can also use it in conjunction with jp4 so that when Panther flanks an IS-2 Jp4 will shoot it from the front. That's how you're supposed to kill a heavy tank, overwhelm it. 2 SU-85s without support can get beaten up by the Tiger too, they are just more based on range and pen rather than armour and maneuverability, so they are used diffrently. Panther are simply not spammable, the have high cost and high pop so that they can not be spammed... In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Stuka dive bomb to be added in another commander2 Mar 2021, 09:25 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2021, 09:05 AMgeneral_gawain Thx, then we would have (first number = commander with offmap with 100% kill guarantee / second number = total commanders): OH: 4 / 22 OKW: 4 / 9 Sov: 2 / 22 UKF 2 / 9 (since it has a copy of Railway Artillery) USF 1 / 9 (since 240mm has no aimed hit as far as I know) Edit: Prepatch OH had 1 more, Soviet had 2 more. I do think this should be reverted by granting the removed ability to other less attractive commanders to hamper artillery slugfest in 3vs3 and 4vs4. Maybe even giving OH / Sov / UKF and USF one commander more with the ability to kill howitzers with offmap. In the end this abilities are still too expensive to spam them, so it shouldn't be a problem. TOT should be moved away from Priest to another commander and probably have a price increase since it one of the cheapest counters... In: COH2 Balance
