Thread: Always loosing against OKW (question)28 Dec 2018, 20:07 PM And the UC, like almost all vehicle, work best when "kited". You keep a far distance from the units you are killing, like they are a kite. Dont let them get close to the UC. This lets you deal damage but take less and makes it easier to escape when you are weak. OKW does not have a good way to deal with a UC early because they do not get fausting ability until after they setup their 1st truck. So the earlier you make it the stronger it is. But then you lose capping ability. Upgrade the UC to BREN unless the map has a lot of buildings. Then the flame thrower is a better choice. You will want to save munitions to upgrade the UC, but it has a self repair ability (15 munis I think) So fight with it, pull back, repair, etc As with everything in the game, keeping it alive gains veterency and it becomes stronger. No unit in the game is a TERMINATOR that can rush into a battle and kick ass. So never throw away units, let them fight and gain vet. In: UKF Strategies
Thread: Always loosing against OKW (question)28 Dec 2018, 02:33 AM It may help if you say which game mode you are playing. Since you state two people I would assume 2v2? 1v1 seems to be spam infantry sections. Make an MG if you pushed the enemy out and want to hold one side while you attack the other side. 2v2 and up, you start to add MGs and the UC if you do not need to take points. For example a 4v4 build might be: IS, MG, UC. Once you state the mode, some pros can hook you up with real advice In: UKF Strategies
Thread: Replace Tiger Ace with King Tiger for elite troops?27 Dec 2018, 21:07 PM I think the TIGER ACE was an easy unit to make that gave variety to the game. Just adding vet makes it a whole new unit and is very easy to code. Swapping it for the KT further normalizes the factions and makes the game more bland. Just some thoughts. I dont care one way or the other. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: USF players, how are you finding the new Tech Revamp?16 Dec 2018, 21:34 PM I am noob and only have a small number of 1v1 games as USF so far. And I am having trouble getting a good groove going since the change With that said, I really like the new USF change. My meta before was rifles-> LT -> Sherman. It was mostly fixed. If I deviated from this it was because I was losing and was not prepared for what was killing me. And if I deviated from this to respond to something, I pretty much already lost because of the change in timings. Now however, I feel USF can respond better to more circumstances. The Zook LT lets you deal with light vehicles if they are not devastating you. If they are, tech the stuart to save your ass. Or tech more zooks for REs etc. If your lagging and expect a lot of tanks soon, tech CAPT and get AT guns. If you start getting blobbed make the half track. USF really feels like you have way more options. This helps in many ways: - Game is not as stale. - Makes more commanders viable. - Gives more possible meme strats. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Alliance of Defiance Version 216 Dec 2018, 21:03 PM First off congrats on having AOD in the latest 2v2 tourney! Great to see new maps getting work. When this map was first introduced it was feared that the open middle with green cover trenches would make this an axis favoured map. Long range and lots of cover. However, the few times I have played it, I found allies actually do very well. The industrial side is mostly close combat situations which are good for allies. And the areas just outside each base are full of sight blockers which let allied blobs move thru and rek stationary axis play. AXIS PLAY OST needs to get control of the middle and left side of the map. OKW has an easier time adjusting to the situations presented. Sturms for industrial area/sight blocker flanks or volks for left side open area and middle. ALLIED PLAY Blob, smoke, and flank. Maybe grenades to dislodge units in buildings. If OST gets embedded in middle a sniper works great. I am sure you have watched way more games on this map than I have, so, these are just quick observations. NEW CHANGES I think this map works well because the way it changes from base to base. Close quarters -> open -> close quarters. And how it changes from VP to VP. Industrial - > open -> medium range cottages. It gives most factions a decent chance to pick their battles. After all the backlash I received about sight blocks on Angoville, I would be hesitant to add sight blocks to AOD. I think the very center sight blocks may be a decent change but I would not add these two sight blockers by the industrial area. The industrial area is already allied territory, adding these blocks may really shift the balance by making this area too much like a maze. OST may struggle here. I hope all that makes sense So when do we see the VapeNation AOD test streams? In: Map Sharing
Thread: Langreskaya14 Dec 2018, 23:26 PM Latest updates to a heavy modified Langreskaya: STEAM WORKSHOP 1. Removed several sight blockers from earlier revision. 2. Moved munition points away from fuel (Tric). 3. Added a 3rd building back to south town area. 4. Adjusted cover items near points to not pull inf away from point. In: Summer patch 2018

Thread: help for a new playing in the OKW vs SU matchup12 Dec 2018, 00:54 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Dec 2018, 23:34 PMAqua thanks for the advice both of you i do appreciate it one more thing ive forgotten to mention ive read that if an opponent swarms a point just leave it to recapture later but ive tried that and i end up losing hard due to my opponent fortifying the hell out of his position or suporting the point faster than i can attack how should i deal with this Generically you don't want to lose more units than your enemy. But in reality, this depends on what mode you are playing: 1v1: Never lose units. Ever. Or you lose. 2v2: Better to not lose units so just back away. Soft retreat and hold a line if you can. There are usually 3 VPs. Leave and help your team mate and/or lock down the other VP. You can 2v1 his side then come back later. 3v3: Always just leave. The maps are huge so you can always team up and over run a point later. 4v4: Maps are small for the number of people playing. So giving up too much ground can be an issue. But again, dont lose your whole army just to save a point. The only time to stay too long is if your team mate is coming to help you. Lower skill 4v4 is more forgiving if you lose some units. Most successful team games have a meta where you push the fuels. If you dont get your fuel, move to the center VP and lock it down. Then you should have 1 fuel and 2 VPs. Sometimes in a 2v2 or 3v3, you can push 1 fuel and center VP at the start. Depends on the map layout. What game mode are you focusing on? You state multiplayer. This will help the better players here come up with a plan for you. In team games the most important thing is to help your team mate and cover each others flanks. This means mines, repairs, healing, etc. Just be warned, your team mates will not usually do anything for you and will complain about what you do to take the blame from themselves for losing. Be comfortable you are doing what is right and they are noobs In: OKW Strategies
Thread: help for a new playing in the OKW vs SU matchup11 Dec 2018, 22:11 PM Someone good will answer this soon. But to get you started: Generically you should build BattleGroup or Mechanized. Not both. If you have an OKW team mate build the opposite that they build. If your team mate is not overly helpful and you will be fighting alone, make whichever one you play the best with. Making both will make your tanks come out too late. For example: My vehicle play is bad, so I may go Battlegroup and just try to hold ground with MGs and Raks. Make a Flak Halftrack for support and late game Anit-Air. It also depends on the enemy. Lots of MGs, AT, and mortars, go Mechanized and get a stukka. Lots of MGs and Mortars but weak/absent AT, maybe make a Luchs and try to chase them off. If your vehicle play is weak, make an ISG and maybe smoke and over run the MGs. SU has many possible builds early game so you will have to adjust on the fly to what you see on the field. On smaller/tighter maps, making two sturms is a good idea and try to pair them up for shock value. But they are expensive to reman so dont throw them away. Larger maps maybe a Kubel so you can cap/tech as fast as possible. Getting to light vehicles fast may help against strong infantry builds. In: OKW Strategies
