Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch30 Oct 2018, 10:35 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2018, 10:06 AMSander93 I think KV-8 should start with less pen for the gun but gain the current values at vet 2 or vet 3. This gives the German player some time to react and develop counters to KV-8 (like Panther) while their T3 can somewhat hold a stock KV-8 back. If the threat is ignored and the KV-8 is allowed to vet up, it should then be very dangerous to deal with using only ATG and T3. Heavy infantry tanks have a role (to absorb damage) and their veterancy should help achieve that role. KV-8 should have armor/HP/armor reduction as veterancy buffs. The whole approach to KV-8 changes is simply wrong. The unit should serve as shock unit that loses value in late game. It should not serve as a counter to PzIV4 for a number of reason. Since it specialized unit it should be cheaper and come earlier than KV-1. Change from live could include: Veterancy overhaul focusing in defensive bonus, vet 1 ability could become a timed damage reduction, lower rear armor, small increase to gun's penetration. Unit available as call-in at normal price and build-able from T4 at cost discount to 110-120 fuel. As most flame vehicles DOT damage should be decreased or even completely removed and added as timed ability, normal damage might need re-balancing. In: Lobby

Thread: Tiger 1 need a very little Buff in dmg29 Oct 2018, 17:17 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Oct 2018, 16:42 PMLoren Try to calculate the probability that all faction anti-tank firearms will penetrate the opponent's faction and the TTK accordingly. Basically, there is a difference of about 30% in TTK in AT-gun, and more than 50% in case of portable weapon such as bazooka. The TD difference makes this problem even more serious. For example, Sherman tanks have 160 front armors, so Panzershreck with 180 to 160 penetration ratio is 100%. But Bazooka has a penetration of 130 to 110, so it has a penetration probability of 61.1% against Panzer4 with 180 front armor. The problem is that both have the same price of 2 weapon / 100 munitiom (only strumpioneer is different, which is probably due to the the weapon unlock upgrade is not required). And this is why Allied players love the anti-tank weapons of the Axis forces abandoned on the ground. So it based on flaw stat: You are not taking into account the difference in the price of tank, the difference in the price of weapons or the squad that wield them, the difference in accuracy and the difference in reload or the fact that hand held AT rockets do deflection damage or the fact that rear/side armor is very lower. When it comes to hand held AT weapon allied weapon are used allot more. Here some stat if you want to make a comparison of these weapon : Bazooka Damage 80 Accuracy near 0.063 Accuracy mid 0.048 Accuracy far 0.034 Penetration near 130 Penetration mid 120 Penetration far 110 reload 5.75 Super bazooka Damage 100 Accuracy near 0.063 Accuracy mid 0.048 Accuracy far 0.034 Penetration near 160 Penetration mid 150 Penetration far 140 reload 5.75 Piat Damage 100 Accuracy near 0.063 Accuracy mid 0.04217 Accuracy far 0.025 Penetration near 130 Penetration mid 116 Penetration far 110 Reload duration 5.75 P.shreck Damage 120 Accuracy near 0.069 Accuracy mid 0.052 Accuracy far 0.028 Penetration near 180 Penetration mid 170 Penetration far 160 Reload duration 7.75 In: COH2 Balance

They can stand in their arty all day because Churchill made a deal with the devil to give eyes to all British artillery shells. Actually the damage received a buff in December 2017.

Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch28 Oct 2018, 12:50 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Oct 2018, 12:07 PMStark According to this (after 11:00): Commander revamp preview 1.8 notes review & demonstrations kv-8 can win vs p4 on every range and can wipe 2 paks easily. Price of the unit is around 135 fuel if i recall correctly. This unit become bloody opieOP right now OR a huge price increase. Right now is really close to become a small Croc for 100 fuel less. I am not sure who came up with the idea of giving at 45 mm gun better close penetration at 140 than the 75mm gun at 125, and did not though it would be unrealistic and would cause problems. Even if a PzIV tried flank this unit to penetrate it will probably also expose its weak rear/side armor that can be penetrate reliably even at max range. In addition Soviet industry now has 2 units with damage reduction and repair stations. In: Lobby
Thread: Buff Ostwind28 Oct 2018, 09:41 AM The whole planes thing should be overhauled. Imo the best approach would be that planes where harder to shot down but suffer sort of suppression or critical damages when under fire reducing their effectiveness. The planes and their counter would be better balanced. Currently AA performance of units is complete mess, some unit like the bofors can't seem to shoot down planes and units like the quad can shoot down planes before the first pass. In: COH2 Balance

Besides, they are meant to be a second-line support squad to mainline infantry anyway so there should be other infantry around to stop charges. And there's already the infiltration nades in Scavange. Give them grenades and people will start spamming them (again) as mainline infantry. Infiltration grenades are doctrinal they are not available to both Doctrines with JLIR. The DPS of JLIR is rather bad at close range since the scoped g43 has negative DPS curve thus the unit is bellow average bolt action squad at close range. A DOT grenade will be there for them to defend vs charging troops while having to spend munition in order to buy some time. I really see no problem with it. Spamming as mainline infantry has to with their timing and not with grenades. In: Lobby
