Thread: Guards vs Airborne Long Range10 Aug 2022, 12:58 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Aug 2022, 12:10 PMTickTack This entire thread is focusing on the scenario of obers Vs guards behind green cover at max range. No the thread is focused on a bug and not in obers vs guards. Jump back to quoted post10 Aug 2022, 12:10 PMTickTack That is such a small case that it qualifies as a minor bug at most. Again no, it effects all fight where Guards fire vs units in heavy cover or garrison and regardless of your definition of minor it should be fixed. Jump back to quoted post10 Aug 2022, 12:10 PMTickTack Any attempts to blow it out of proportion with a motive to buff axis, are ridiculous - which is what the rest of the thread is. There no post calling for any buffs to any axis units. On the contrary plenty of rants about how bad allied units are (from guards, to t-34/76 to kv-1 and even Rangers...) which you should actually classify as ridiculous. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Guards vs Airborne Long Range10 Aug 2022, 07:51 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Aug 2022, 16:16 PMSkysTheLimit While I don't agree that green cover doesn't matter/guards are shit, it's just not that clear of an advantage Glad to see that we agree on the obvious points. Jump back to quoted post9 Aug 2022, 16:16 PMSkysTheLimit The video shows it, if they need to be prone in heavy cover just to have a chance against obers then it's also not the massive deal some are making it out to be The problem with that line of thinking is the use of obers as the benchmark. Guards are an all around unit while obers are a pure AI infatry and guard should have no chance against them. There is a bug that makes Guards perform better than AI infantries under certain circumstances and that is regardless of any video. Jump back to quoted post9 Aug 2022, 16:16 PMSkysTheLimit Should it be fixed? Of course. It's going to change a lot? No. There's a reason many people don't bother picking up/replacing dropped ptrs with guards ... The impact of such a change can be meaningful since other Soviet units might become more attractive. I always pick Guard's PTRS regardless if I play axis or allies. I am not sure which or how many people do not or even if they are aware that Guards PTRS is different weapon than Penal PTRS.

Thread: Guards vs Airborne Long Range9 Aug 2022, 13:42 PM This is a clear case of bug that gives a clear advantage to Guards under certain conditions (enemy in green cover or garrison). This should be fixed. The rest is just mental gymnastics ranging from silly claims that green cover does not matter, to sillier claims that "guards are shit". In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Guards vs Airborne Long Range7 Aug 2022, 16:48 PM The current performance of PTRS is bugged and should be fixed. This is simply not a balance issue. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Isn't the UKF Commando's camouflage ability a bit excessive?5 Aug 2022, 09:41 AM The retreat smoke allows Commandos with their effective camo to be used even more aggressively with reduced risk of being wiped. Thus it is an issue with the unit. On the other hand UKF remain a badly designed faction that can be annoying playing with or against. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: In depth - scatter and how it works23 Jul 2022, 17:53 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2022, 11:56 AMProtos Angelus Unless you have the source code and are looking at the defined functions for the accuracy or whatever it would be called, you can't really know how things behave. I have noticed that MGs suppress much worse if slightly behind some large cover like a car. You can notice it by looking at all the bullets that hit the large object in front. Even though some say that small arms fire does not have any collision data and does not behave like tank shells. I've also noticed that KT pintle MG in spearhead, and MGs in buildings suppress almost instantly, even against green cover. Confirmed it on Across the Rheine by building sandbags, putting 4 man IS behind them perfectly, and using that large top-left building (below the top fuel) to shoot at the Infantry section. They got suppressed in one volley and I noticed that the MG was positioned on the 2nd floor (so the tracers could easily be seen going directly onto the IS, rather than the sandbags). So nobody except Relic really knows. Hence why you have bugs like JP4 shooting across the map, killing an ambulance. You can open the attribute editor and check all the variables that are defined somewhere inside the source code, but unless you see the functions themselves, you will never completely know. You can only assume and deduce. As I have already pointed out to you KT Pintle does not suppress only the hull mg does: Name: "Spearhead" Duration: Toggle Ability Cost: Free +50% sight range. -25% speed. Hull MG's will deal 2% suppression. Locks the King Tiger's turret to a frontal 90 degrees arc. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Bofors are OP13 Jul 2022, 11:11 AM Jump back to quoted post13 Jul 2022, 10:51 AMДмитрий you are either a liar because the Stuka is not at all effective against a bofors, or you are an idiot because you do not know how to use the brace structure and your engineers. Maybe you didn't know, but they can repair Bofors! Hi is talking about the vet 1 ability that stuka has that does fire damage to emplacements. Getting a stuka to vet 1 is another story.

Thread: long vision range cancer10 Jul 2022, 22:54 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Jul 2022, 17:45 PMEsxile In a way yes it is an excuse to continue to abuse path but I also personally came to the bore state with Path every game, I haven't touch path for a couple of weeks now but the meta is completely wrecked by to extended vision that are so accessible. Path, JLI, Pfuss, they should all get addition CP requirement so they can be the base of your army so easily JLI are already CP 1 and they can not be "the base" of an army easily. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Isn't the UKF Commando's camouflage ability a bit excessive?10 Jul 2022, 17:19 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Jul 2022, 16:52 PMSupport Sapper Maybe it is the detection range, commando get detected at 5m while stormtrooper get detected from 4m. Im not sure it was patched recently or has been allway like so, tho. According to patch log there are no nerfs to commandos stealth. On the other hand certain user have a tendency to come up with "nerf of the mod team" that do not really exist. In: COH2 Balance
