Thread: Spring Update - Balance thread19 Apr 2018, 18:55 PM A number of units have been given additional boosts to their MGs against snipers, increasing the number of mobile counters to these units.The following units’ hull MGs now have a 1.5 accuracy multiplier vs snipers • USF: Stuart and Greyhound • British: AEC • Soviet: T-70 • Wehrmacht: Puma, 222 Armored Car • OKW: Puma, Panzer II If this isn't going to be properly communicated to the player ingame then it should be cut. The game already has too much important information that's hidden from the player: we shouldn't layer on more. The other sniper nerfs are probably enough anyway. Do we really need more than received accuracy to solve the problem? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Spring Update - Balance thread19 Apr 2018, 18:27 PM I can't help but agree with the argument that making the Soviet sniper 1 man isn't the only way to reduce its durability. If that's all that needs to be done it's possible to do it differently. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Spring update from design point of view. 19 Apr 2018, 16:52 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Apr 2018, 16:46 PMBratkartoffel My point was, that Storms need also some changes. Hopefully they will in a future version of the patch. They haven't looked at Sturmpios and decided a stun grenade nerf was all they needed. They were just changing it to be consistent with the changes they made to the Elite Troops version. In: Lobby
Thread: Spring update from design point of view. 19 Apr 2018, 16:45 PM Why do you preface everything with "from a design point of view" as it somehow makes it more valid? It's a balance discussion. In: Lobby

Thread: Spring update from design point of view. 19 Apr 2018, 14:05 PM The Sturmpioneer's grenade changed because the Elite Troops doctrinal grenade changed. It's the same ability so they made it consistent. In: Lobby
Thread: Spring Update - Balance thread19 Apr 2018, 10:01 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Apr 2018, 06:34 AMEsxile Its a stop gap and buffing it and/or reducing its price is going to generate more evident gap on USF and UKF gameplay. As it is presented today, M20 and M15 are dead units, and AEC, Stuart and T70 are probably going to be hardly impacted. The M20 Utility Car's MG was never really a threat to it: its method of countering the 222 is mines and the crew bazooka, neither of which will be affected much by the armour change. The AAHT has an autocannon which might be a little less effective at killing 222s now. You can usually get some RE bazookas out by the time you get the AAHT out. Most of the 222's counters are AT weapons that shouldn't be hampered too much. It just won't be killed by infantry now. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Spring Update - Balance thread19 Apr 2018, 08:43 AM Fairly sure they changed the Conscript weapon slots so they can only grab one Vickers K from a Special Weapons teammate. In: COH2 Balance

Giving an M3 to Soviet player for instance allows viable reinforcement and healing anywhere on the map, that can create a number of issues. Actually M3 has very little reason to the only half-truck to provide healing in the first place. If you mean the one in USF Mechanized then yes, you could decrew it and give it to your allies. Same for any USF vehicle. Including the Ambulance. In: Lobby

It's shooting 4 man squads. Were it a clone of the Ost one it'd be a big advantage to the Soviets. In: COH2 Balance
