Thread: The February Patch Reaction27 Feb 2016, 17:56 PM Commanders are nothing to scream about to be honest they are nothing to really even whisper about! Only 1 good thing in each of them other than that they are a waste. AEC's armour is paper thin (which is fair is a small fast scout vehicle) but in my opinion is becoming useless, pathing causes it to turn when damaged allowing more crit rear shots to happen so you lose it trying to help in navigate over an open field. The units really are no longer worth the cost. I've had shermans and Universal carriers reverse into battle not sure but never seen that on the film reels from WW2. Not gunna lie I feel the game is getting worse for its balance. In: News
Thread: UKF Build orders post patch27 Feb 2016, 14:27 PM Playing UKF a fair bit its actually difficult to detail. I'll try how I play especially after new patch but really no difference. Infantry section is the first one on the map- go capture stuff. First purchased unit is Universal carrier for fast support, i.e. flanking MGs or keeping pios at bay. Next is Inf Section. Now this is where to be flexible if they keep moving then get MG and support with your Inf Sections. If static defensive depending on terrain you may need to think about teching to AEC. So here I go T2 upgrade RE Sappers then AEC. If your Uni Carrier is still alive might be worth putting on a wasp flame thrower clears Volks and Mgs quickly and at a decent range. Weapon racks within early game At gun soon into mid as possible even if sits back. Just get a feel for the game and respond best bear in mind Axis mortars can hit RE building emplacements easily so keep it dynamic in early and mid. In: UKF Strategies
Thread: FEBRUARY 25TH UPDATE - RELEASE NOTES27 Feb 2016, 06:51 AM Personally I think the games balance issues are less about hit points and damage than the effectiveness of Units and Abilities. Not to say Allies dont have advantages either, I just dont think they get many with basic units. Axis have better units in T1 MG mortars and Grens who can upgrade to heavy weapons easily and quickly to counter practically any threat. Using a UC for flanking and MG countered by and Panzer faust from a Gren squad. They have a variety of heavy weapons in T1 that makes countering them especially in US and UK forces difficult. Another example is Brit bombing run takes far too long to do anything nearly 20 seconds from flares to the actual drop. Meaning all the target units are far away from it. If on stationary targets especially OBW trucks doesnt heavily damage them to make an allied advantage. Even to players who saved up Munitions for them to turn a losing battle into a hope for survival. The abilities like that and the US majors arty or off map abilities become useless wasteful. Yet A Stuka strafe and and bombing almost happens immediately. So Axis players get lots of time to react to flares Allied player dont get as much time. The Brit 25 pounders are supposed to be a useful asset yet they do little damage and spread is far too much. Its a waste of time and effort to get a flare to get the barrage in. Yet Stukas rockets are accurate and hit hard. Likewise with US and Uk MGs take too long to set up and often die because they take so long to pick up on retreat. Personally I think Relic need to stop making useless commanders and start the balance over. Start from scratch, back to drawing board. In: COH2 Balance
