Thread: USF radical design changes ideas23 Oct 2018, 11:19 AM I think you can make USF competitive again with a pretty straightforward teching cost reshuffle. Lieutenant: 200 MP 50 FU -> 280 MP 35 FU Captain: 200 MP 60 FU -> 280 MP 45 FU Major: 240 MP -> 160 MP 135 FU Grenade Unlock -> 150 MP, 15 FU (discounted to not further disadvantage grenades) M20 Utility Car, AAHT, Stuart -> requires Grenades, Racks, or a second officer to build This is essentially what was done with Ostheer in DBP: shift the teching costs around to make the tech fork less painful. » The total cost to unlock Major is unchanged, as is the unlock cost for any USF light vehicle. » As the first officer comes out 15 FU sooner, USF is no longer forced into building three Rifleman squads. This allows USF to diversify their builds. Getting their first Thompson Officer out sooner also helps repel early game OKW rushes. » Double teching becomes a realistic option: getting Lieutenant and Captain will cost you 560 MP 80 FU rather than the 400 MP 110 FU it costs on live. As you're no longer forced to build three rifles before your first officer, it also won't force you to field an excessive number of mainline infantry squads. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Advice for Soviets against double sturmpios opening22 Oct 2018, 10:50 AM I can take a look for you later today if you want. I'm usually Rank 200 - 300 so it won't be top player feedback, but hopefully it'll still be helpful. In: Replay Reviews
Thread: Countering JP4/Ele20 Oct 2018, 12:19 PM Countering a Jagdpanzer IV is like countering any other tank destroyer. You invest in tank destroyers yourself, making it a fair fight, or you accept enemy AT Armor superiority and shift your build to counter what they don't have. If they build a JPIV, they didn't build something else. If you can't counter the unit, counter the build. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: About soviet shock troops in WWII19 Oct 2018, 21:26 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Oct 2018, 11:22 AMVipper I have provided my feedback about shocks and KV-2 in urban defense as requested, I have no problem and I am not upset, however imo the changes are simply in wrong direction. I have also suggested alternatives. You can't complain about it and say you've got no problem with it at the same time. That doesn't make any sense. In: Lobby
Thread: About soviet shock troops in WWII19 Oct 2018, 10:51 AM Jump back to quoted post18 Oct 2018, 23:10 PMVipper The idea that changes should follow the theme is not mine but Relic's Relic's not the one with a problem here. You're the one that's upset by Shocks and the KV-2 being in Urban Defence Doctrine. In: Lobby
Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch18 Oct 2018, 17:12 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Oct 2018, 17:03 PMKasarov I think Overwatch could use a copy of sector artillery rather than leFH. I also think KV-8 should be allowed to fire it's weak gun while also using the flamethrower, like the Crocodile. It's such a weak gun against armor anyway and the flamethrower is so much better vs infantry, so I don't see the point of the weapon toggle. It's the only vehicle in the game with a largely unused fire mode. Seconded on the KV-8. That's a very straightforward, simple buff that saves a bit of micro. In: Lobby
Thread: About soviet shock troops in WWII18 Oct 2018, 17:12 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Oct 2018, 14:51 PMVipper Yes one could say that about allot of abilities in the game. But one can not claim that "shock troops" are designed for urban defense. They have nothing special for urban fighting or for defensive fighting. They are CQC assault elite units. Isn't urban combat close quarters? In: Lobby
Thread: About soviet shock troops in WWII18 Oct 2018, 14:42 PM You could say that about a lot of abilities in the game. The doctrine names are loose themes, not absolute rulesets. In: Lobby
Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch18 Oct 2018, 09:46 AM People underestimate just how powerful Overwatch Doctrine's flares are in 1v1. I can see how it's a bit weaker in teamgames just as the Elefant doctrines are weaker in 1v1s. Power level wise the buffs have put it in a good place: if it receives further edits they should probably sidegrade it rather than buff it further. In: Lobby
Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch17 Oct 2018, 13:07 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Oct 2018, 13:04 PMKatitof Sturmtiger used to be stock unit. It's a fairly obscure unit and they replaced it with something else. Don't get me wrong, Relic probably could lock the King Tiger to Elite Armoured. But I doubt they will when it'd be such a poor PR move. In: Lobby
