Thread: 17 Pounder vs Jagdtiger28 Mar 2019, 17:44 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 17:34 PMWingZero I wonder if the Pak (big gun) can be countered by ISU? It can be countered by AVRE that can one shoot it. Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 17:31 PMGrim They both look like apples to me. You are entitled to have the opinion that a Heavy doctrinal TD is in the same category with a stock emplacement. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll for hotly debated units in new commanders.28 Mar 2019, 16:09 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 15:53 PMWingZero Calliope just doesn't fit this commander, especially for its cost and performance. I would rather build a priest instead. Ez-8 definitely needs some love and I think it should be included in this commander. Balancing the Eazy8 has nothing to do with creating a new commander especially one designed for "Urban warfare". The idea adding thing in commander to fix balance issues is flawed in core and it usually end up creating more problems than it fixes. If it balance issue it should be fixed in a balance patch not in new commander Patch. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Poll for hotly debated units in new commanders.28 Mar 2019, 15:49 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 15:39 PMddd Easy8 is not a counter to p4 just like p4 is not a counter to 75mm sherman. Read more carefuly. If it has a better chance to beat than by definition it is a counter. It not a "hard" counter thou. Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 15:39 PMddd Easy8 will make great addition to this commander since it doesnt fit urban assault theme anyway with its current abilities. At this point its about making this commander viable. Now you are simply trolling. The commander has a theme and Easy8 is simply not part of it. Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 15:39 PMddd Easy8 is not premium medium tank (that would be panther and comet), its just a standard medium. And its only your imagination that calliope and easy8 cant be put in the same commander, unless you show us someone from relic claiming that. Easy8 is superior to stock Sherman 75mm so by definition it is "premium medium tank". Panther roles is to counter "Heavy" and "Super heavy" tank, so by definition it is not "premium medium tank". Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 15:39 PMddd Calliope will be useless no matter what, its far worse than katyusha and mattress while costing much more, thats why so many people want easy8, so the commander doesnt rely entirely on trash unit that is calliope. Calliope performance is completely irrelevant with Easy8 being in the commander. It presence in the commander is relevant with other call-in units thou. Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 15:39 PMddd Many people in usf commander thread expressed that they would like to see easy8 here. Just because few haters try to make this commander as weak as possible with their "suggestions" doesnt mean that this bad influence should be taken into account. The fact that you perceive people providing their own feedback which is different than your as "hater trying to make the commander weak" is a strong indication that you are biased. This has debate has started to take a very non productive turn. Bottom line is: Easy8 is a good cost efficient tank that does not fit the commander thematically. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 17 Pounder vs Jagdtiger28 Mar 2019, 15:36 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 15:26 PMHoverBacon The unit itself is not OP, the point of the thread is about balancing it against the 17 pdr. In which the 17 pdr is outranged when statistically they are identical, thus it is intended that they should have equal range but they do not. 17P pounder is stock emplacement with low tech that can hit the field allot earlier, while it cost a bit less the half the manpower and around one third of the fuel. It is design and balanced around countering tanks. It not design and should not be design to counter JTs. As another user would say "apples and oranges" The JT on the other hand is unit that another user would say was "gutted" by the continues nerfs see little action in anything bellow 3vs3. JT can beat a 17p and that is simply fine. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll for hotly debated units in new commanders.28 Mar 2019, 15:06 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 14:42 PMddd I dont have any problem, i just stated a fact that panther counters easy8. Easy8 is better in anti tank department, okw p4 is better in anti infantry department, i dont know what is so hard to understand here. You will lose p4 to easy8 only if you missplayed, easy8 is too slow and has too slow reload to chase anything down. Panther on the other hand always penetrates mediums, is super fast and has very high hp and armor. This is how true counter looks like. Panther cost more because it counters mediums and heavies. It can easily defeat 230 fuel pershing. If thats not cost efficeint i dont know what is. I dont know what additional tech cost you are talking about, its available in okw tier3 building without any additional requirements. If easy8 is good and cost efficient tank it will make good addition to new usf commander. I would suggest reading more carefully, because this is what I have written and you have posted something completely different about Pershing when we are talking about medium tanks: Easy8s is a much more cost efficient counter to PzIV than Panther is to allied mediums. "i dont know what is so hard to understand here." And No Easy8 will not make a good addition to the commander it does not fit the Commander thematically and the commander should not have a premium medium and Rocket artillery. One of abilities will be useless in 1vs1 while the commander will bring too much to the table in 4vs4. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Poll for hotly debated units in new commanders.28 Mar 2019, 14:16 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 13:49 PMddd So are you disagreeing that panther counters all medium tanks? Or what were you trying to say here? Becasue i dont get your problem. It does but not cost efficiently. I don't have a problem you seem to have because Easy8 does beat Panther 1vs1. Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 14:08 PMddd Its as cheesy as soviet clowncar. 200mp unit becoming burden after winning you the early game is good trade. Cav rifles become anything but useless with vet. Yes, easy8 can threaten panther if axis player reverses into battle with "hold fire" enabled. Panther has better fire rate and is faster, even with rear armor exposed it will win with easy8, and if it somehow got low it can just drive away, not even counting combat blitz here. You cant honestly compare panther countering easy8 to easy8 "countering" p4. Easy8 counters p4 about as much as p4 counters sherman. Its a standard medium tank ffs. Not really a Easy8 has better chance to beat both PzIV models although having the same price as the OKW one. Easy8 actually counter PzIVs. The Panther cost more than Easy8 and has more tech cost thus it a less cost efficient counter. Bottom line here is that Easy8 is good and cost efficient tank. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: 17 Pounder vs Jagdtiger28 Mar 2019, 13:06 PM 17p is fine its a stock option with low tech cost and a cost around half the manpower of JT and 1/3 of the fuel. There are plenty of other option to counter a JT that so cost inefficient that is mostly used in 4vs4 games. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: 17 Pounder vs Jagdtiger28 Mar 2019, 11:39 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 09:55 AMKatitof Then perhaps JT doesn't deserve to have its 70+ range? Its not like its 500 armor provides it insufficient protection. 1) PLS do not qoute if what you are going to post is completely irrelevant with my post. 17p being a stock unit and JT having 500 armor are two COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT issues. 2) Now pls at least try to check your stats before posting: 17p and JT have the exact same range of 80. Jump back to quoted post28 Mar 2019, 10:16 AMKatitof That leaves us with nerfing the range of unit its supposed to hardcounter. ATM JT effortelessly is able to hardcounter its own hardcounter. And NO 17p is hard counter to Tanks not to a expensive doctrinal heavy TD. Actually JT is supposed to counter static targets and that is why it has a HE barrage. In: COH2 Balance
