Thread: Sander's personal balance changes3 Sep 2020, 15:07 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Sep 2020, 14:36 PMSander93 This change does not make Panzerschrecks worse. Their effectiveness against medium and heavy vehicles should stay roughly the same (damage per minute is balanced out with decreased damage but increased accuracy). With the enemy kiting and reacting, I expect most shots to take place around maximum range. For example: Against a medium tank (20 TS) they currently need (640/120=) 6 hits, and at long range with a 56% chance to hit that will take roughly 10.7 shots or 5-6 volleys. With these changes the shots to kill would go to (640/100=) 7 hits, but with 72% accuracy now, it would take roughly 9.7 shots, or 5 volleys. There would be a small difference in synergy with other AT weapons (for example a tank that took two hits from an ATG would require 4 PS shots to finish rather than 3) but again, the higher accuracy should generally compensate this. Obviously numbers can be tweaked further to finetune the changes. If tests would conclude they'd effectively become a bit worse at mid range then accuracy there could go up too, although the better max range performance would likely be a better trade for slightly worse mid range. But the point (goal) is that this change wouldn't really make them worse against mediums and heavies in sustained combat while 1) decreasing the alpha strike of Schreck blobs and 2) making them more reliable against light vehicles. I don't really see how this would make them any less cost efficient. i thought one of the main positives for shreks is the alpha strike, which is why it has the longest reload. For me, the reason it sucks vs LV's is due to the long reload. But overall i think its a positive change anyway gj. Whats your opinion on volks? honestly at 260mp i really struggle with them until i get an mg34 or LV's out. Similar to USF, i was under the impression volks need to be very cost effective like riflemen, but they are not and i really think they are the main reason why OKW is hard to play with.

Thread: Comet armor and abilities1 Sep 2020, 21:32 PM ai and at should be left as is. Abilities makes the tank very unique and attractive to go for. If anything should be nerfed, it should be its armour. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why is the Jagdtiger so pointless11 Aug 2020, 16:35 PM jagdtiger and ele, in the past was complete cancer in teams games, they would dominate armour, they still do in a sense but no where near in way they used to be. They are still powerful is supported properly. One thing i would defiantly agree that other have said is the isu152, that unit most definitely needs to be nerfed. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Is the WC 51 overperforming ? 11 Aug 2020, 15:50 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2020, 15:12 PMEsxile So far his arguments are its OP because a bunch of people here on the forum, far for being representative of the player population, say so and also because on a tourney last year it has been used 3 times. I let you rewind the post until my first comment where I give my arguments. Lets stop beating round the bush. after reading ur post, it seems your indirectly admitting the unit is OP but dont want it nerfed. You clearly want it to stay the way that it is because i believe you are simply biased. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: No compensation for deleting the Ost T4 cap buff?4 Aug 2020, 19:27 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Aug 2020, 18:02 PMmrgame2 agree. Ost is only faction much untouched while other factions got power creep. Ost late games suck because pound for pound, it is not as cost effective Smaller infantry size wipes easier or less holding power. Panther is worst late game tank, poor scaling vs its cheaper counters. Ost is only viable if you choose VSL or Assgren. although i generally agree with this, but calling the panther the worst tank is nonsense. imo, i think grens should stay 4 man but with more damage output + faster cap rate with t4 up. + dont brit IS have faster cap rate too?

Thread: Volks too weak20 Jul 2020, 08:25 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2020, 08:17 AMKatitof That is so low level of you I feel like you just jumped out of 5 digit rank 4v4 game. still, far better then someone who doesn't even play the game. at OP, volks dont need changes for now, other mainlines need looking at first In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Are sections balanced?20 Jul 2020, 08:24 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2020, 07:52 AMSupport Sapper Cost back to 280 is fair, bit the static theme was alway there, in form of the cover mechanic and non moving bren gun. 0.5 moving acc is just standard, far from actual mobile infantry like rifle and fusilier. Thats a nice way of saying i want the best of both worlds. infantry that do hav 0.5 mov acc dont have sections cover/stationary bonuses In: COH2 Balance
