Thread: Are Osttruppen OP or Underpowered ?6 Jan 2019, 00:12 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Jan 2019, 22:03 PMVipper You are missing the time factor. Even if osttruppen become identical to conscript but available around minute 20 they would hardy had much of an impact. Osttruppen are good at stealing weapon, if you want to man weapon pioneer are far better. Giving LMG to 6 men squads is bad option because of the the DPS drop does not follow the entity lost, imo it should be removed. The idea is to remove the LMG upgrade not keep it, the upgrade would just to remove to cover mechanism, less firepower more utility. I honestly feel like ostruppen are just supposed to be line infantry, which IMO they very much are right now, not some sort of assault squad. Panzergrenadiers exist for that. I see what you're saying about lmgs but there's already like 2 other 6 man lmg squads and 2 5 man lmg squads (sections with bolster and 1919s on rifles) and IMO it's not a massive problem such that it warrants removing in any capacity, especially because there's kind of a lot of larger lmg squads anyway.

Thread: New units for the new commanders 5 Jan 2019, 23:11 PM I've been thinking in general that a thompson upgrade for infantry sections could be nice. Heck, it could even replace the worthless vickers k in the worthless resupply halftrack in the worthless tactical support commander so the entire thing isn't friggin useless. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Motherland HMGs rework5 Jan 2019, 18:42 PM IMO this suggestion is a lot more convoluted than needed. I think maxim just needs a suppression buff since it has a smaller arc than other mgs and doesn't really do more damage or anything, even taking into account that it's six men. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: bulletin for EFA5 Jan 2019, 18:31 PM EFA also has a lot more commanders for some reason. Relic works in weird ways. As if bulletins even mattered that much anyways XD In: Lobby
Thread: Are Osttruppen OP or Underpowered ?5 Jan 2019, 18:29 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Jan 2019, 18:23 PMVipper Read more carefully pls. I suggested an upgrade cost manpower when T3 is researched. That would not make cheaper nor better. It would simply make them remain relevant in late game. I think he means they are already significantly cheaper. Aren't they like 15 to reinforce?

Thread: COMMANDER REVAMP LIVE - BUG REPORTING5 Jan 2019, 18:24 PM Another issue on classic hotkeys I guess: Most grenades are bound to D, but the pgrens' bundled nade is E on classic hotkeys, which would be more or less fine but repair is also usually E, and pgrens with the german infantry upgrade have repair. Their repair is R, but for the sake of consistency why not make their grenade D and their repair E like pretty much every other unit in the game? I've bundled grenaded my tanks a couple times on accident XD In: Lobby
Thread: Are Osttruppen OP or Underpowered ?5 Jan 2019, 18:21 PM IMO ostruppen are fine. Give them grenades and they're too close to real mainline infantry to justify their ridiculously low cost and stellar efficiency, but the lmgs are warranted with the timing they have IMO, and panzerfausts are definitely needed. Cover debuff/rebuff system makes it so they aren't a no-brainer too, but again they're very cost effective IMO. Jump back to quoted post5 Jan 2019, 15:51 PMTiger Baron Agreed on the Panzerbusche. It's problematic when they're garrisoned and there's a vehicle outside since you need to actually get them in the line of fire to launch off a Panzerfaust which in any other unit's case it would be fine but since they're so fragile... Wait but they're least fragile against vehicles since they're 6 men and target size doesn't matter for scatter right? The vehicle's mgs will do that much more damage but tank guns will be less effective against them than they would be against grens as long as you don't let them clump up at the door. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: WASP locked behind Platoon CP5 Jan 2019, 17:22 PM Honestly I don't even see it as an issue, and I wouldn't even if I didn't think it was fair from a balance standpoint just because brit t1 comes so quick anyway. It's only 30 fuel and you can build it after like your second or third unit, and as others pointed out you tend to have the platoon cp before you even have the munitions to buy the WASP.

Thread: Increased number of abandons after the patch5 Jan 2019, 00:25 AM All just rng. Nothing got changed, but you maybe just got lucky/unlucky. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Feelings after the Decemberpatch5 Jan 2019, 00:09 AM Jump back to quoted post4 Jan 2019, 22:02 PMBartonPL dunno if this is the right section, or was it mentioned, but valentine concetration ability doesnt work I've noticed that too. You might want to put it in the bugs thread also created by sturmpanther. IMO OKW's overwatch sector assault is a bit ridiculous at the moment. It's much better than any of the other CAS abilities since it has planes that pin infantry and bombs that have a good chance of killing anything and everything in the ability when they come down, and it's rather hard to escape soemtimes even if you retreat right away because its range is massive for some reason (it must be a bug because the minimap circle is much smaller than the actual ability). It's really broken in any teamgames IMO. In: Lobby
