Thread: OKW's 221 is too weak for its 20 fuel cost27 Dec 2018, 18:28 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Dec 2018, 18:19 PMthedarkarmadillo Penals are much better than others at defending against armour but much worse at assaulting due to long aim times and low burst damage. It's a trade off. The AT snare won't do shit unless you get close enough for it to do shit. Not to say adjustments don't need made but the balance of it isn't problematic @Katitof I too would like to hear their thoughts. Good at def, bad on assault. But you can comnbine them so easy. Put in a Sniper and you can overrun a hole position. Later a SU85 and even Panther has no chance. (that is good, but simply to easy to do, that is the problem) If there is no Ele etc. you will win because of lack of counters. If Penals would lose their AI ability, they would be fine. And that is no l2p, it is the problem of commander and fraction design. But now you only need the time and the map-knowledge and the luck that you don't lose all inf by Panzerwerfer. If StuG or Panther can't hunt, they are they most useless units ingame. And if the enemys AT inf also can defend a position, then there is a problem. So, nerf the Penals, if you don't change the line-up. A. - Give Penals same weapon-profile as Volks. Upgrade for better AI weapon or PTRS. B. - No Sniper with Penals. In: COH2 Balance

You are trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist by creating even greater problem that was a massive problem before and was just fixed recently. Is it because your brain can't make an image out of it? Units with two Piats or two Schrecks become more or less useless versus infantry. Overall one Penals with PTRS and AT-explosive-charge performs better to stop breakthroughs as one PnzGren with Schrecks. The at-gun is good versus light cars, the charge will stop all tanks movements. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW's 221 is too weak for its 20 fuel cost27 Dec 2018, 16:16 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Dec 2018, 16:08 PMgbem my suggestion is much less destructive to balance penals - nerf to volks mosin clone give optional DP upgrade but keep PTRS as optional SVT deathblobs wont occur but penals are now good at holding the line but lose alot of dps on the move... no more unstoppable deathblobs... cons - ppsh becomes nondoc... ppsh commander abilities get replaced by cons storm package with smoke grenades HE nade and hit the dirt... cons are still balanced vs grens earlygame but now can compete vs grens lategame without getting slaughtered maxim - +0.001 suppression and inc damage... maxim no longer becomes useless Many of your ideas I had and wrote years ago… and many of them are good. Edit: So, why not make a mod to test it? People like Katitof only shut up if you show something. Their mind is limited. No troll, everyone know it. In: COH2 Balance

Newsflash: Its NOT ostheer, its NOT working as ostheer, its NOT teching as ostheer, its NOT supposed to tech as ostheer. You're talking soviets, but thinking ostheer. Its SUPPOSED to pick one early game tech that covers basic needs for AI and AT and vehicle support is supposed to cover the rest. That is the very reason penals were given PTRS and that isn't going to change. You're living example of that saying, you know "people who forget the past are deemed to repeat it". You know the problem with you is? You arn't able to think over the things you arn't able to see, because you can't make an imagine in your brain. I read your post since years, allways the same. Only because the teching was like that, it has not to stay so. So, I am no fan of Penals, I am no fan that they get the PTRS. I am no fan that snipers are covert that effective by Penals. I am no fan that Cons are obsolet because of that situation. etc. Soviets are broken, so lets fix that. And a buffed 221 will not be the solution. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW's 221 is too weak for its 20 fuel cost27 Dec 2018, 15:55 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Dec 2018, 15:49 PMgbem thats a long discussion but a short way of putting it is 1. conscripts suck without doctrines 2. even with AT nades sov will be helpless vs the halftrack the 221 and the luchs 3. the maxim sucks 4. T2 generally sucks to the point its unused without the PPSH doc... 5. i actually do agree on nerfing penals giving them volks mosins for 260mp with an optional techup to DPs for lategame scaling at the least... this means penals wont be oppressive kill everything SVT deathblobs and even in the lategame they have to stop to shoot There are multible ways and problems. Moving units can be an easy solution, sometimes. (Tests are needed). But like you said, Cons aren't that good without commander. And Penals are too good to give a reason to buff Cons.

Because that's how you get guards in every single game. Because why? Because you have to build T1 if you sniper wants immunity? So, with that change also free AT-grenades for Cons would be a possibility. Thinking around the corns isn't your strength, isn't it? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW's 221 is too weak for its 20 fuel cost27 Dec 2018, 15:44 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Dec 2018, 15:40 PMgbem actually T2 is already super shit as it is... doing this would mean soviet T2 would be completely unplayable... Because why? Because you have to build Cons and tech AT-grenades? Penals have to be pushed out of normal early-game. They are specialists, no line-infantry. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Increase light jaegars price27 Dec 2018, 15:35 PM So, we have a solutuion. Balance-Team, make a test-mod. Why making such long discussions? I don't know if there is an english saying, but as german for me it is 'talk around the porridge'. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW's 221 is too weak for its 20 fuel cost27 Dec 2018, 15:28 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Dec 2018, 15:26 PMgbem T2 would be even more useless without the ZIS AT gun doe.. Sniper without Penals, so an unit like 221 is able to counter a sniper if soviet doesn't want to build T1 for AT or doesn't tech AT-grenades for Cons. A punishment if you ignor the commander and still want to tech directly T70. That is the risc sovits need. Penal&ptrs + Sniper + T70 simply works too good. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW's 221 is too weak for its 20 fuel cost27 Dec 2018, 15:26 PM Penals with ptrs and Sniper. There arn't many units ingame working so good together. What can you do? Is there are real counter beside counter-sniper, multiple P4 or Panzerwerfer? They are unbalanced as Volks with Schrecks, if they would have access to destroy every building and emplacement with a 45mun ability. In: COH2 Balance
