Thread: Faction satisfaction poll28 Jun 2016, 19:19 PM Ostheer: Fine at is it. Light vehicles can come out early to counter new soviet penals. Soviets: Needs Vet 1 abilities that are actually useful, conscripts still useless because lack of weapons. B-4 and KV-1 need serious fixes. Other than that it's good. OKW: Finally stops blobbing and needs to utilize their unique units (infra red, raketen) in a combined arms approach. Perfectly fine except for medics (should be same as Soviets!) USF: Fix the bug and chain-mortar and we are good. UKF: No radical changes. Fine as it is. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Next patch opinions28 Jun 2016, 19:06 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jun 2016, 16:24 PMBudwise Move USF Mortar to T1 and make it more or less equal to Soviet Mortar Reduce Shrek cost for Sturmpios Makes mines actually suppress Improve Raketen survivability Make brace durability 50% of current stats Lower Ostwind cost to 75 fuel to make T1-T3 more viable Add additional weapon slot to Volks so they can pick up weapons while equipped with STG Allow Sturmpios to build caches All emplacements take 3X damage while being constructed Wow I never thought such bias would be possible. Apart from the mine suppression this is a HUGE power ~~creep~~ leap for axis. Sturmpio caches? What full resources AND caches? 75 fuel ostwind? Thats just 5 more than a stuart! Absolutely no way in hell, you are just whining for axis. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Cheating in Company of Heroes 2 (news from Relic)28 Jun 2016, 18:13 PM With the ongoing whirlwind about combined arms, does that count as hacking or is it merely a bug?] Will relic ban for that? Are they capable of detecting that? In: Lobby
Thread: Reworking muh Riflemen28 Jun 2016, 07:15 AM What, now that you can't blob against tanks you want to make rifles weak? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Rifle smoke and mortar, pick one.28 Jun 2016, 07:10 AM False dichotomy. This poll is fundamentally rigged since there is no option to keep both. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviets 4vs4 and 3 vs3 advice28 Jun 2016, 06:55 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Jun 2016, 05:47 AMKamzil118 My only concern is how to keep a field presence without the Urban doctrine or retreating entire damaged units to heal. There is the M5 halftrack, but do you any advice on how to handle it without losing major ground? This is where coordination with your allies pays of in dividends. If they are USF, beg them for an ambulance for you to crew. If UK, talk to them about the placement of their FHQ. That's what allies are for. If these options are unavailable, you must use your discretion about the condition of your squads. Don't just pay attention to their size, but also health. If a 6 man squad is at 50% health, retreat. If it's at say 75% or above, go forward and use your halftrack. Most importantly, be patient and give your larger squads the time to heal. Healing means more to Soviets than any other faction.

Thread: Soviets 4vs4 and 3 vs3 advice28 Jun 2016, 06:48 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Jun 2016, 05:06 AMpigsoup care to share any builds? 1.Penals 2.penals 3.Penals 4. Depending on the situation I'd make another penal or go Soviet combined arms army and get guards (They have good supporting options, now that SU-85 is buffed we no longer need to rely on doctrinal armor) For armor it is situational. Does the enemy hold no fuel points? Or do they hold only one and it was recently captured by them. Go T-34/76, always support them with infantry and mind panzerfausts. I've seen players with great micro lose all sorts of stuff just because they forgot about the faust. If the enemy controls one fuel point or worse,both, go SU-85 immediately, no exceptions.

Thread: Analysis of NEW t34-7627 Jun 2016, 19:52 PM I use them if my team dominates both fuel points, even if we have only captured one recently. This means the enemy will be stuck with Panzer IVs and Stugs, and that means we can afford the luxury of using the T-34/76 which is both AI and AT, instead of the hard-counter SU-85. I always use them in pairs, formations of 3 and above are unwieldy at mot situations, except on an open map like steppes. And I always, always try to flank. In: Strategy Desk
Thread: Soviets 4vs4 and 3 vs3 advice27 Jun 2016, 19:43 PM I don't consider myself a pro, I am probably decent but that's it. However 7 out of every 10 games I have played are as Soviet. Being so familiar with the faction I want to offer any humble advice I can on the Red Army. I hope to provide understanding on the nuances of Soviet units and commander in an easily applicable manner. I also understand that most players play the larger scale games and not 1vs1.

Thread: USF Blobs27 Jun 2016, 19:36 PM Let me make this clear: I am a Soviet player. Speaking from VERY personal experience, I can feel the rage and anger of having a tank, skillfully maneuvered, be destroyed in one or two volleys of shoulder-mounted rockets. OKW losing the blob was a big step in improving the game. But the USF blob is just disgusting. The irony is that by providing a platform for combined arms, many USF players have resorted to blobbing. Yes there are counters, but the blobbing must be terminated at the source. I say only 1 bazooka per rifle squad (or 2 for rear echelons). By allowing 2 bazookas for rear echelons (which are weak so they cannot just charge blindly) blobbing will be discouraged. Rifle squads with 1 zook cannot pick up another weapon. In: COH2 Balance
