Thread: T34/85 or KV1 in Soviet Industry Commander? 5 Oct 2019, 10:33 AM the kv 1 fits better with early war theme than t 34 85, and it could use the mini at gun instead of self repairs In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What are the problems of Soviets in 1v1? 5 Oct 2019, 10:28 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Oct 2019, 00:01 AMHon3ynuts Tier 1 starts Penals not scaling particularly well hurts a little, they really bleed a lot at 27 manpower .8~ Ra at vet 3. The sniper can be good but it's more a counter to weapons teams than an every game unit, due to the prevalence of light vehicles in current meta. they have same vet as pPfusi, and they are claimed as the best scaling infantry In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sturm officer 4 Oct 2019, 23:06 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2019, 21:14 PMSander93 Did you forget that the Sturm Offizier has easy access to 4 Obersoldaten Kar 98Ks with ~100% more DPS at all ranges than the Commissar's 3/4 SVT rifles? 4% less cooldown with vet does not matter when the base DPS is so much higher. Run some tests if you like (I already did); on average a vet 5 Sturm Offizier easily wins versus a vet 3 Commissar with 3-4 models left at closer ranges and 4-5 models at long range. Early performance is fine. The Offizier hits the field early at 2CPs and even at vet 0 the squad can fight with vet 0/1 mainline infantry from heavy cover quite comfortably. At best, it could use 0.8 TZ instead of 0.91 to help with the bleed a bit. It gains vet 2 and above really fast if you keep it near your other units, after which it can quite easily take on most units except maybe double BAR/Bren mainlines and some elite infantry. Stick it behind heavy cover or in a garrison and the kills keep stacking up. yes buff the base RA i know they are good at vet 5, but the abilities are sub par and until vet5 they are worse in combat for the price In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sturm officer 4 Oct 2019, 23:05 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2019, 21:28 PMmurky depths I agree with Honeynuts. I'm also continually frustrated with people's "long range" tests that have the units unaligned, which results in one model sometimes not being able to shoot all of the opposing squad's models, or makes it easier for one model to be focused on by the entire opposing squad. Putting them on a line via sandbags then deleting them will still leave RNG for the latter issue, but at least it won't stop a model from shooting because the enemy is "too far away". it was 30 range so they still hit anyway In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sturm officer 4 Oct 2019, 21:11 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2019, 21:02 PMSander93 The Sturmoffizier scales way better and at vet 5 (which is really easy to get with the shared vet) completely wipes the floor with a (vet 3) Commissar Squad. Or most other squads for that matter. starting RA 0,91 Veterancy 3: +40% Accuracy Veterancy 4: -29% Received Accuracy Veterancy 5: -25% Weapon Cooldown, Offizier switches to an StG 44 VS strating RA 0,87 -Veterancy 2: +40% weapon accuracy. Increases Propaganda, Stand Your Ground, and Fight to the Death range by 5. -Veterancy 3: -29% weapon cooldown, - 23% Received Accuracy. yep totally better it gets 0,01 better RA at vet 5 and worse CD for weapons the stg is useful but does not make up for the fact all its ability are worse and more expensive than others + it lacks in utility and this does not excuse the poor performance early unlike other officer units In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sturm officer 4 Oct 2019, 19:12 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2019, 19:07 PMHon3ynuts Regarding combat tests I think it's best to put units behind cover like conscript sandbags then delete the cover so they all stand in a line at the correct distance. It makes it neater when I try at least I think generally officers should performa bout their cost, but not have access to upgrades, in this case no lmg 34 like a normal ober squad. The officer squad at long range has only .91 RA and will lose 1/3 of its long range dps with 1 model drop since the luger is useless, so it's tough to have an effective range. Plus that Reinforce cost is killer. I think just adjusting the reinforce cost, giving him more Ra and or looking at giving A combat bonus vet 2 and squad member 5 at vet 3 instead would be all that's needed. I would think having 4 stronger models is better than 5 weaker one, that's just going to make him bleed more before he gets combat bonuses. His abilities are pretty good vs mg spam with a smoke nade, retreat and target practice all working well against them. but u can see that commissar has basically a cheaper version of them without any draw backs In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sturm officer 4 Oct 2019, 18:38 PM made some more test, they lose close range to commissar (260 mp) and long range to IS WITHOUT COVER (280 mp) there is no reason for an unit that has less utility than others to be weaker in combat AND be more expensive for reference commissar has AOE suppress/pin and retreat with no draw back, officer has a single target retreat that buffs enemy squad near the target by 50% accuracy and mark target that was nerfed to 1,3 increased RA for enemy unit, commissar can buff ur unit instead with both defensive and offensive traits and has smoke, while commissar has normal nade AND free aoe healing even when comparing to other command units it's worse arty officer give aoe buff to tank and inf, + off map smoke and mortar barrage AND ability that gives accuracy and RA to itself, it only cost 240 mp too British air landing officer has gammon bomb , powerful aoe inf buff and recon pass, + it can upgrade with elite bren (basically lmg34) the officer even cost 35 mp to reinforce this unit is not only subpar to other officers but even to similar priced units remove the draw back from retreat and add aoe healing like commissar + give it more RA even at vet 2 it loses to penal at long range even if it cost more (280mp+35 from reinforce vs 300 mp) edit: just to show how bad the situation is , commissar that is a close-mid range unit beat volks that cost the same close and mid and is a coin toss at long range In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T34/85 or KV1 in Soviet Industry Commander? 4 Oct 2019, 17:46 PM Useful for rush and when u have a lot of mun, give the advantages to build mun chaces and use it for both mun and fuel with conversion In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T34/85 or KV1 in Soviet Industry Commander? 4 Oct 2019, 17:24 PM They already have mini sink tho, the repair station cost mun and mp In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T34/85 or KV1 in Soviet Industry Commander? 4 Oct 2019, 17:20 PM Ops Another option is removing the repair ability for the mini at gun, fits with the theme of industry and early war years In: COH2 Balance
