Cancer emplacements were a problem in Coh1. Relic logic: Reintroduce emplacements that everybody hated into Coh2 and give them an ability to be invincible.

Brace should get out of the game.

That's funny, because they were really easy to kill in COH1 and so they are here too.


Emplacements:

-Huge popcap cost.
-Really vulnerable to any flame weapon or the retardedly spammed panzershreck.
-Immobile.

Use your god damn imagination, from T2 onwards you have access to endless list of units that can erase emplacements with ease.

In fact a UKF player that relies heavily on emplacements is one that usually loses, because he can't move so he is a sitting duck and he also can't help his team mates.

If there is a design flaw that rightfully is to be loathed is the fact that OKW has access to the best units in-game, christ, its the only freaking faction that has access to a Heavy call-in without the need for a commander.

It really pisses me off that you people bitch about what is the least attractive feature of UKF in terms of game meta...You aren't winning easily enough? sod off.UKF has nothing else to provide much needed troop support and is forced to rely on static, costly and vulnerable emplacements, but at least now it has some semi competent tanks and mobile HMG, unlike COH1 where the only viable option was the firefly glass cannons.

THe UKF is definitely lacking in mid game options, but that is a problem related with the way they were designed to rely on emplacements.

I would like for brits to have access to an actual non-commander anti-blob arty unit. I think it is unfair that USAAF and UKF are the only factions without standard issue anti blob options (rocket arty).


The likelyhood of devs doing this seems low, given SEGA's DLC happy policy. But i do think this would go a mile to improve the playability of US and UK in late game phase Vs those moronic ubermensch tidal waves.

Alternatively make it so Axis need to spend fuel to tech to panzershreks and LMGs like all the other normies do, it's totally not kosher that they can have access to them at Tier 2 free of charge, effectively negating allied light vehicles completely for the reminder of the game, while the reverse is not true (looking at you Luchs).


for OP, Bofors is a no go, specially in open maps. Sherk blobs will survive the suppression long enough to take your emplacement down with shreks.

The unit performance itself is great, no doubt about it. That's why I said only "buff" is out earlier. Perishing can be a beast. But the range is only 45. Not 50 as they claimed to be a sniper tank.

I think they should make it 50 range like panther range. But then allies would have a good tank , Axis would not allow.

That would be unbalanced. The Pershing is amazing vs infantry while the Panther is basically a dedicated tank hunter. It balances out both.

Can you imagine a tank with the panthers range, similar damage and penetration yet capable of doing squad wipes regularly? Ludicrous. Then you'd see nothing but people abusing this commander like people would abuse the Elite infantry doctrine back in the days.

Can't say i'm too impressed with the flame hetzer.

But considering the fuel price, i supposed it could be worse.

After reading this thread i'm gonna give it a second chance.

T-34/76 is the worst tank in game.

You can do some hilarious stuff with the ram ability, but that is it.

But seriously wasting all that manpower and fuel to have a "change" at snaring a German big kitty cat? Wasteful.
