Thread: December Balance Preview7 Dec 2017, 03:32 AM Volksgrenadiers StG 44 Upgrade * Now take up 1 slot item (as opposed to 2) Huh. So picking the STG upgrade on Volks will still let you pick up another weapon? Didn't expect that buff. In: Lobby
Thread: [DBP] Mechanized Doctrine feedback thread5 Dec 2017, 23:41 PM The team must really want us to use Assault Engineers, with all these buffs left and right. Personally, I just don't get why it can't be Cavalry Rifles. I mean, look. I can't figure out why they're so insistent. Assault Engineers Target size decreased from 1 to 0.9 Veterancy 1: Now also adds Destroy Cover to the unit Reinforcement cost reduced from 35 to 30 Popcap reduced from 8 to 7 And now with the latest update they're just giving the M3 with only the AE's inside. M3 Assault Group To make the pricing of this bundle ability more attractive, we are replacing the vehicle crew of the M3 Half-track with the Assault Engineer squad that the ability originally came with separately. Assault Engineer squad replaces the vehicle crew Cost reduced from 460MP/30FU to 290MP/30FU We get it, Assault Engies are cool and tougher than ever before, but this isn't Armor Doctrine, and they just don't fit the way Cavalry would.

Thread: [DBP] Luftwaffe Ground Forces feedback thread5 Dec 2017, 05:36 AM Sully seems to be spot on with all the suggestions. +1 from me. And maybe we could change the commander to just "Luftwaffe Forces Doctrine" to have it make sense thematically. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [DBP] Mechanized Doctrine feedback thread5 Dec 2017, 05:13 AM Is there any chance of a fuel cost decrease on the 76mm? It's in between a standard M4A3 and an Easy Eight, so shouldn't the price be in between too? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [DBP] Mechanized Doctrine feedback thread3 Dec 2017, 20:44 PM Why would you need to consider nerfing the M21? It's not even in the same situation as the T0 Mortar, it's doctrinal and it costs fuel. At 2 CP it should be able to perform at the level of the other normal mortars while the M1 is early game only.

Thread: [DBP] USF Mechanized Company Assault Engineer call-in.1 Dec 2017, 17:21 PM I agree on the call in. Mechanized Cavalry is the logical step to take rather than more units from other commanders. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: [DBP] Riflemen smoke survey30 Nov 2017, 04:13 AM Switching smoke to other units won't make USF openings any more interesting at all, unless one's idea of interesting is to make USF players micro even more than they already have to by juggling between the mortar and REs. Just the proposed shared cooldown between Mk.2s and Smoke would have been enough to stop the alleged smoke spam. As for encouraging Elite usage, that's a timing and/or specialization issue. Nerfing Rifle smoke won't change the fact that by the time 3 CP hits, you've probably already got all the AI squads (aka Riflemen) you need/can afford at the moment. In: Lobby
Thread: December Balance Preview23 Nov 2017, 04:50 AM Thank goodness, they finally got rid of the damn trip wire abilities. In general the Guards and Shocks buffs seem great, but I won't know for sure t'ill I test it. In: Lobby
Thread: December Balance Preview21 Nov 2017, 01:39 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Nov 2017, 01:20 AMMr.Smith I think that would be too drastic to go in one go, with all the British core faction changes and commander changes. If pack-up ever makes it this patch, it would probably be only to suicide your emplacements, but with no refund. Talk about a quick response! That's unfortunate, but I think it's still worth a try to see what people think. Already have to let your emplacements be killed, but at least with suicidal PU Brit players could deny their opponents XP on their own terms. In: Lobby
Thread: December Balance Preview21 Nov 2017, 01:05 AM @Mr.Smith, are there any chances of the Pack-Up ability appearing in the DBP? For reasons that chocoboknight has stated, it'd be a major improvement to the current perma-emplacement spam type deal if we could just move them. Or if you're Axis, and you chance an offensive while your Brit opponent is getting ready to move? Boom, goodbye pesky Bofors/Mortar/17 Pounder. In: Lobby
