Close range, where numbers of cons squad help them to deal with gren squad. Cons have more chances to win in close range against grens. Of course if all squads with stock rifles.
Definitely close range. Conscript accuracy is awful and being at close range kinda reduces the rng factor in my experience. |
And why wouldn't they be
They don't really give a shit about adding new stuff anymore. Everyone should know that now. They hardly care about balancing the game anymore now that DoW3 is out; they're literally letting the community do most of it (which is actually better IMO but still). |
Trench will do the trick
Good point. There goes situational. |
Penals are meta becuase of 3 reasons :
- Dushka and Lend Lease is OP
- Penals syinergise really well with the Lend lease doctrine thanks to PTRS
- Conscrips are shit
They aren´t build because they are OP, they are build because they are the best option for Soviets right now
It's like bitching about how every usf player always spams rifles early game. |

Stats from the Veterancy guide.
Relic decided to make the british sniper more AT and less AI so instead of the Ostheer sniper, he doesn´t get any great reload bonuses, but +100% damage (which only apply against tanks, because he uses critical against infantry - always kills).
And if you´re talking about vetting speed, I cannot help you, I don´t know the values for that.
Yeah I did mean vetting speed. The sniper becomes a beast at vet3 by the way. He can reliably damage kts and stuff which is funny. |
I want an entire faction made up of Kubelwagen units
Lord imagine the spam on steppes XD |
It goes reallllyy slowwwwwww. How come? |
British sniper hits the field later than ostheer snipers usually, so I like to keep mine concealed and on hold fire until I can get an easy shot off at the ost sniper. You will have the element of surprise, but be wary of the ridiculous aim time of the Brit sniper. Vet1 vickers in buildings are a bit ridiculous too, but very situational. |
i know u don;t play coh2 (u watch a lot of streams i know) but ur opinion is spot on.
We need more ppl like you to comment on balance threads to make them more realistic and less fanboy oriented .
Cheers
Having an opinion from a non player is actually very interesting. I agree with 90% of it (don't wanna dig up the original quote tho) except that what allied equivalent is there to Stuka dive bomb? That shit's one of a kind. |
Kindergarten? How is making the argument that a balanced and high-level player card = more likely to have a better grasp of the game somehow toddler behavior? That makes no sense.
I think the playercard situation is caused by people who don't post their stats but are happy to shout loudly and fill the forum with, what is probably, nonsense and bias. That wastes people's time. So "Playercard or gtfo" seems to be a valid argument.
Also, you may need to nerf penals somehow and/or put faust back for OKW after truck call-in. All I'm seeing in 2v2 is penals and M3 for dayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyys
If you gotta nerf Volks, do it, I don't really care. I just want a nice fun early game with less of this light-vehicle BS from 0CP and T1. It really spoils the flow of the game Nerf the Kubel if you have to too, just get rid of this clown car nonsense for the love of goddddddd
Key words "more likely". An inexperienced player may still have decent ideas occasionally and higher ranked players aren't infallible balance gods either. Low level does not invalidate an opinion 100% of the time.
Bulgakov has a point, the penal opening is way to frequent (boring), not that they are really that OP but rather there is no real alternative...
Why not give them only one PTRS... But the Soviet still need more viable alternatives to T1 to be fun to play.
Penal openings don't have much flavor either. Basically slightly better (early game anyway) 6 man volks with a sometimes useful satchel. It would be nice if there were more viable alternatives to support or replace it besides Dshka. IMO cons are due for a buff of some sort after the maxim nerfs. |
