Profile of Protos Angelus

Current USF stock tanks are fine. Definitely no further additions are needed or swaps. 76mm is fine as a doctrinal tank. It's got better penetration drop, slightly lower AOE radius on "normal" shells (2 vs 2.5 on P4) and good overall stats. Like Jaeger said, it would make for a poor stock tank in a sense that it would be "too" good. Right now the Sherman's biggest weakness is the shell switch. If you want to have a good AI cannon, you absolutely need the HE shell and if you want to be able to penetrate tanks from the front, close up, you need penetrating shells. It all balances out.

In the commander department only Pershing needs a slight buff in the survivability department and E8 in the "role" department (eg, buff AI a bit or buff armor a bit, or w/e).
I don't think USF commanders need big reworks, just slight changes.

T-34/85 is a very good medium. IS-2 is basically a fat version with better pen and armor but slooooow and expensive. Not worth its price tag, but that's the state of heavies in general these days. Except maybe KV-1/Churchill which are kinda special heavy armor/hp, weak gun affairs.

Tiger is still viable. I still don't see a 3v3 game where there isn't one. People mostly complained about the Tiger nerf in the Heavy nerf patch, because it used to be batshit OP. Basically Tiger went from OP to normal. Pershing went from fragile infantry killer to just fragile. IS-2 went from OK to "meh". KT was not touched, but outside of 3v3 and 4v4, it's not really a menace. Sure, a supported KT can turn the tide of the game and net you a win, but only if it's supported well.
Most people, even in top 50, still buy KT, bring it to the frontline SOLO and then complain how it's completely UP and useless because it couldn't solo 3 AT guns and TDs and infantry.... since you know, if the tank is expensive, it has to solo win everything.
KV-1 and Churchill are still great heavies. Weak guns but high survivability.
KV2 is in a league of it's own. A really special tank.
Brummbar is also a special tank and one of the best stock heavy tanks.

Overall, if IS-2 needs anything, it's a slight rework of it's weaknesses and strengths. Make it slow and non-agile but increase survivability and damage output. But again, it's quite difficult to rework such heavies.

Pershing is ez. It only needs a slight armour buff (to 290 or 300) and that's it.
KT needs nothing
Tiger might need a slight buff in turret rotation, but that's also it.

Well if you take into consideration CS:GO overwatch, then its requred to all the investigators proclaim suspect to be cheater. Even if one of them disagrees, then the suspect is innocent. Everything else is handled by the anti-cheat.

I don't think one can veto a ban. Each overwatch investigator has an invisible score, which determines the weight of that individuals resolution. Eg. If a new investigator says the suspect is not cheating and a "veteran" says they are, then the ban will incur. I don't think anyone knows what the border is for ban. How many people need to be in agreement is still unknown for overwatch. Not only that, but overwatch is kinda pointless as CS GO is free. I usually overwatch 3-5 cases a day and in every single one there is a hacker. 1/20 or 30 are non hacking people. Of course, CS GO is mostly played by kids and no-lifers so it's not surprising. Hell, I remember playing one game on Saturday morning. Took a break, made lunch, studied, went on a jog and then in the evening I got paired with the same guy I played with in the morning. CS GO is really in a sad state. Both player wise and anti-cheat wise.

How that has anything to do with this?
Most people found Seeking guilty. Simple. Issue a ban, but don't drag this out publicly.

Lol. Reputation. Like this is something important. Of course Seeking won't be banned. Cheating (probably) or not. An 8y old game with barely the playerbase, blowing this sh** out of proportion. People just like to feel important I guess.

If this were at all serious, you'd watch the clips, analyze and make a decision. Pretty much every thing on those clips can be summed down to "luck" or "game sense", and as such, no damning decision will be made, so stop this nonsense thread.

You don't need a comity of 300 posts and people following this BS thread to make a decision.
"Innocent until proven guilty" won't pass here because you don't have any concrete evidence. Only suspicious behaviour... so don't give all that BS about "innocent until proven guilty". Proven guilty about what? Even if he had 10 cheating bans on the account, it doesn't prove a thing.
So again. Stop this BS public thread. Go private. Decide whoever you feel like has no life to actually waste time arguing/proving this case like it's a life/death situation and get on with it.


EDIT: I mean, "seeing this investigation through".... You're hoping to get your hands on a video camera showing Seeking turning on the cheats?

If you wanted to make a decision, you would have done it. There is nothing smart or profound to be found here. You have a male/female person that had an above average number of "luck instances". That's all there is to it. Simple statistics. From my experience, as an average player (so trying to push my luck as far as it goes since I have nothing to lose, unlike tournament plays), I'll get 2-3 instances of pure luck in a game. Be it retreating in just the right time, moving something out of harms way, without knowing the harm is coming, randomly barraging FOW and getting a squad or two in the process..... etc.... so from my point of view, the clips on the first page are extremely suspicious. No amount of game sense is going to give you such precision. You can get lucky once or twice, but that's it.

Tbh, gaming nowadays becomes more and more popular and you can make actual living out of by becoming competitive or entertaining enough. Its as valid and sometimes as demanding as regular sports.

Cheaters however existed always and everywhere where competition and high rewards are in question.
There were confirmed cheaters in all of e-sports, maybe with sole exception of fighting games.

Whatever the final outcome will be, this is certainly some quality drama that'll invoke polarising feelings and create apologists and accusers alike.

Not talking about the money part of video games, but the health part. Heard that top e-sport people play 12+ hours a day to stay competitive and relevant (finding metas, strategies that work, etc.).

I'm quite positive that in past COH2 tournaments, top level people cheated. Especially if it was not played in one venue. Don't know what the format was (playing from home, playing from some dedicated arena, venue, or whatever) in past tournaments, but COH2 played from the comfort of home definitely has cheaters.
