"Shits like this" lol.... well
moved to coh2 balance, where it shall see more votes and proper discussion.
I Second the notion that the state office is for asking for help. Not for filthy, nasty, BALANCE POLLS!
!!!
Alright sorry |
Please keep shits like this in the gameplay or balance forums. The strategy office is for asking for advice, not whining. Ask for specific things you are having trouble with.
If you are having trouble dealing with Riflemen and ISs you need to be playing more defensively. If you are overextended rifles and ISs will eat you alive, and they should, they are more expensive. Stay back, hold your fuel and muni point, and wait until there is a good time to push out. You need to make sure you are prepared for the inevitable vehicle coming.
That is the piont, you always need to do that. There is no diversion from that play. You are always REACTING |
Hello
Ostheer feels really weak in its current form in 1v1. From the low squad sizes prone to getting wiped, to having no effective light vehicle counterparts to the Stuart, t70 and AEC, to having inferior and expensive teching that shows no real benefit from going to t4. It just feels off.
Your core infantry can't go toe to toe with any other core infantry units but conscripts. Your medium tank is more expensive than its counterparts and can't 1v1 them effectively. Your teching isn't rewarding as your counterpart's teching is. Other factions either get free units out of their teching or free abilities such as howitzer emplacements, but you get nothing of these kinds (a problem for soviets as well..) There is no real reason to go tier 4 in a 1v1 since you waste so much resources that could be better spend on tier 3 units.
Ostheer play feels as being reactive 90% of all games becasue the faction's design dictates that you play reactively. This was fine vs Soviets, but now with the USF and Brits factions this just doesn't cut it any more.
I know high ranked players are doing just fine, but I higly doubt that the majority of players outside of top 50 don't feel the same way as I and many of my friends do. |

End of june huh, too little too late lelic |
This, plus one costs 0 fuel to call-in and arrives at vet3.
TA isn't supposed to be magical Wunderwaffe.
Its just a vet3 tiger with different ability.
It still gets out of harm way too reliably. Seen that replay on org where the tiger ace should have died like 20 times but got away time and time again boucing every freakin shot from the front lol |
After intensive balance preview play with all factions, I sincerely hope they will find a better solution for OKW. Currently the faction feels kinda weak, and it's about its AT capabilities I guess in terms of timing and resilience. Shrecked volks were covering the AT deficiency, not anymore though. Related to OH, this faction (OH) is in such a bad shape even in the patch to come, that it isn't worth to be mentioned. I don't think any soution would be apropriate except 5 men grenadier squad or such... Soviets are the big winner of the new patch if actual status will be kept.
Ostheer's design is just meh. Feels very weak indeed. OKW is fine in my opinion. USF needs that mortar hard early game. UKF early game is still meh, and Soviets feel solid! |

The biggest issue is the grenadier screen. Bear in mind how compact a Wehrmact commander has to play in order to protect his sniper.
Hypothetically, you should outnumber his troops by a squad at the very least. Consider another RE Squad to either cap and harrass, or give the Sniper something else to shoot that isn't going to bleed you as badly allowing your riflemen to move into a better position. If your micro is up to the task, and your opponent is attack moving, sacrificing an RE squad may just give you the window your rifles need to do the business.
Good luck, the counter to a sniper is always in mind and material more expensive than the unit itself.
Thank you! |
