Thread: IR pathfinder versus normal Pathfinder on 50.cal HMG30 Apr 2018, 12:50 PM If I recall correctly when you recrew a team weapon it uses the models that recrewed it and reinforces the models that recrewed it. Therefore a Pathfinder crewed MG will always have Pathfinders crewing it. However, it'll also pay Pathfinder reinforcement costs. In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: Range Indicator For Vehicles27 Apr 2018, 21:34 PM That'd be nice but I don't know you could make one emplacement display an arc and a full ring. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Range Indicator For Vehicles27 Apr 2018, 20:51 PM Added some clarification to the main post about what happens when you select two vehicles at once. The game's already got a way to handle it. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Range Indicator For Vehicles27 Apr 2018, 18:34 PM Do you oppose range indicators on other units? Snipers, AT guns, et cetera? In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: What's with the raks stealth?27 Apr 2018, 14:35 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Apr 2018, 21:04 PMLatch A stealthed AT gun is ridiculous the way it has currently been done, stealthing over and on red cover? Why is that a thing? Is there any reason at all why it can't act like other stealthed units and be required to move from cover to cover in order to retain its stealth? Why does the rak need to be a special snowflake? It's not. ZiS camouflage and tank stealth works this way too. Having them automatically cloak in cover could be interesting but it'd make the Raketenwerfer more difficult to use in its current role. You couldn't cloak them and creep up to enemy lines in stealth any more. You'd have to hide them in static positions and bait tanks into them. That could be interesting but you'd need a big enough ambush bonus to make it worth it. Or maybe a stun shot it can only fire from the new stealth? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Jackson nerf27 Apr 2018, 14:01 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Apr 2018, 13:44 PMVipper You are also being rude to someone you do not actually know for no good. Focus on what he is actually saying instead of who he is. If your balance assessment in any way draws on your own personal ingame experience then your assessment is influenced by your skill level. Your rank is a measure of your skill level and your rank is therefore relevant as a measure of how reliable your balance assessment is. If your balance assessment is in no way based on your ingame experience then your playercard isn't relevant. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Jackson nerf27 Apr 2018, 13:39 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Apr 2018, 13:29 PMCartoonVillain By saying "This player sucks don't listen to him"?. And it's not about disallowing someone else from considering opinions it's about you yourself not listening to them. If I respond to a comment with "This player sucks don't listen to him" I'm not preventing anyone from listening to them. I'd be expressing the opinion (in a rather crude way) that they shouldn't. If someone responds to your post with "my rank is higher therefore I'm right" what difference does it make? Players who distrust your judgement on balance because your rank is too low will do so anyway. Players who agree with you based on the merits of your argument aren't going to change their minds on the basis of someone saying "lol what a noob." In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Jackson nerf27 Apr 2018, 13:20 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Apr 2018, 12:27 PMCartoonVillain I mean they are allowed to have their opinion considered. Obviously they're allowed to express it. How do you disallow someone from considering someone else's opinion? You can't. Most of the common rhetoric about opinions doesn't actually make any sense. The reality is you can think what you like and that goes for everyone else too. As for expression, you can say what you want if you keep to the forum rules. If you're using player feedback (even in part) to build a balance patch then you've got to account for everything that influences that feedback. That feedback is in part affected by the unit's actual performance but it's also influenced by other things. Personal bias, RNG and player skill level to name a few. To gauge the unit's performance you've got to find a way to filter out these other things. The feedback of high skill players is most useful for filtering out the influence of player skill. It can still be biased which is why you listen to more than one player: if a large set of high skill players broadly agree on a unit then you can be fairly confident they're onto something.

This is not court where someone credibility affects weather a court has take their testimony on event as true or not. Sure you do. Take the claim, "the Soviet Sniper overperforms in high level 2v2." I can't test this myself. What I can do is ask a wide range of high level 2v2 players and see if their answers line up. In: COH2 Balance
