Thread: Storm pioneers are too cheap and too fast to deploy26 Aug 2018, 17:36 PM xDD when USF dominated the early game and okw late game that was unfair for usf. When OKW dominate early game and USF late game, that's unfair for usf. lol i guess USF is suppose to dominate OKW at all stages. Not that i even agree with these dumb statements.when i watch 1v1's between OKW and USF, its usually always down to the players skill and micro whether they dominate early game. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Storm pioneers are too cheap and too fast to deploy23 Aug 2018, 23:05 PM i think OP is talking about getting hit early on by two OKW players with sturm each, which is why shadow is saying if ther double teaming, where is your team mate? And doesn't 1x echelon and 1x riflemen come out faster then 2 SP? In: COH2 Balance

Thread: USF White phosphorous mortar rounds17 Aug 2018, 03:45 AM Jump back to quoted post16 Aug 2018, 21:19 PMdOPEnEWhAIRCUT Its fine. It's a tool that isn't used too often, but when it is used in conjunction with other indirect it discourages the enemy from blobbing and/or mass retreating, which I think is great. Often enough it's just a muni sink with little to no payoff. Also, as Kati pointed out it doesn't actually kill anything on its own and is easily countered by proper spacing and medics. yeah as if we can build medics all over the map In: COH2 Balance

I think at least retreating units shouldn't slow down, making squads very vulnerable to wipes even if u react fast enough In: COH2 Balance
Thread: About USF early game, how about finally buffing RE a bit?4 Aug 2018, 19:07 PM IDK what people are talking about USF 1v1 early game being bad against OKW, i find them good against OKW. But against OST its more difficult because of the mg42 combined with grenadiers + plus the risk of snipers (good use of combined arms tbh), you haven't got that option with USF at the start and back in the old days all u had to do was pop smoke. You can get the motor as USF, but its very risky cuz that would mean 1 less rifle squad, and motors are rng based at the end of the day. USF is in a very good spot for all game modes but right now, Soviets and OST are both the best factions for 1v1 for me, team games on the other hand all factions are pretty powerful tbh. Maybe, if the USF player can choose between Smokes on Riflemen or motor (no cost side tech), picking 1 would lock out the other (like brits AEC)but idk. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Sturmofficer is boring to use...2 Aug 2018, 14:10 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Aug 2018, 10:02 AMVipper This is thread about Sturmofficer. My advice for anyone who want to learn about Wer artillery officer is to load that game and test him in game. He he will see that he can do much more than support other units. Alternatively one can ask for help on how to use the artillery officer in an appropriate thread/section, where I will be happy to provide any stats needed. I think john smith is secretly in love with you Regarding the topic, what about if the sturm officer loses its aura buffs and the mass retreat drawback but still keeps its abilities, i think then more people would use it.

Thread: AI Grenade ratio usage per faction from GCS2 quali2 Aug 2018, 14:05 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Aug 2018, 13:24 PMEsxile 3 over 5 factions have the upper hand and it appears they all use free-tech nades (OKW and OS) or Meta (SOV with Penal/Guards). So there is a correlation, now my question has you didn't want to see is if the causation exists. Grenade isn't a limited faction that have Little to 0 correlation with victory or defeat unlike speaking english or not. Grenade can wipe squads and more generally wins engagement. So the question is how much do they impact the actual meta. Some time ago when the game was balanced around early/late game assymetrical balance, grenade design was making sens in the way to delay teching and force choices for the early game dominante factions. Today I think the question need to be evaluated. So far, except being a true sarcastic heroe you didn't prove anything. Im confused what exactly your trying to prove with these stats. That OST, OKW, and SOV have the upper hand because of nades? Ther are many things you also cant take into account, such as player choices as some players may purposely delay teching their nades (thus reducing the amount of nades they use per game). IMO ther is VERY LITTLE to NO correlation between a faction performance and whether "free nades" has much of an impact compared to teching as your trying to prove. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Sturmofficer is boring to use...1 Aug 2018, 19:02 PM The aura buffs are not that great for the risk of having mass retreats but buffing this unit or its aura will just lead to a big blob of death. In: COH2 Balance
