Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 21:55 PMStug life oh yea the less hp of the t 34 76..... do u actually play the game the su 76 has the same hp as any medium, it has just 10 less armor than Sherman (cause it cost 20 less fuel) btw 2 at-gun will kill any medium its still squishier than most mediums.. id guess its lower cost offsets that... but unlike the OST P4 it doesnt have combat blitz... unlike the OKW P4 it doesnt have armor (and blitz)... and unlike the sherman it doesnt have smoke... unlike other mediums it has no escape mechanism or special ability besides ram which is another bucket of worms considering how inconsistent it is vs heavier tanks... https://www.coh2.org/topic/93537/t34-ram-inconsistency Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 21:55 PMMaret But t-3476. I have bad news for you - it deals 160 damage, same as all mediums in-game, have 640 hp - as all mediums in-game, only armor less - 150 instead 160. t-3476 not for 1vs1 against other mediums. It good against infantry, if you don't forget to keep it front (it hull mg very strong and deal tons of damage to infantry). Also don't forget about ram - it always deal 160 damage (as one shot), you could kill enemy tanks with it and it will be profit for you (90 fuel against 120 for p4). Want stronger mediums? t-3485 or M4c to your service. It need more skill than for p4 or sherman, but when you know how to use it, all will be good. yes its great vs infantry... its also one of the most potent infantry crushers along with the M10... but unlike other forms of vehicle AI it has no escape mechanisms to get it out of bad situations like smoke or blitz, or durability like the brummbar and churchill that makes it stand out... its only real advantage is its pricetag of 90 fuel... which is great tbh but bleeding 90 fuel to 2 AT guns whereas a sherman can smoke its way out or a P4 can blitz its way out bad is quite the difference to a 90 fuel bleed.... granted i dont think the T-34 should be buffed (except for ram)... but i think the soviets should get more long ranged or more durable core vehicle AI just like other factions... giving the SU-76 a switched static arty mode would be a good change for example In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Riflemen need a buff or Volks need a nerf?12 Aug 2019, 21:46 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 21:40 PMHannibal The early Gren/Con-balance had a similar thing - Cons had to close in. But Cons are dirt cheap to reinforce, and they could take a model loss and still trade efficiently on close range. Also they cost the same, so no one got a real map presence advantage. These were the most interesting matchups in the game. early cons also used to deal more close range damage... they seem to do a bit less cqc damage than earlier cons did tome time ago... now however u need 2 cons in order to reliably close against grens even with oorah... and this is aggravated by the prevalence of panzergrenadiers that are being spammed now like no tmrw since pgrens are now available without T2...

Thread: StuG life not viable12 Aug 2019, 21:20 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 21:15 PMStug life 1 it has more armor 2 it deals ton of damage, so no it's anti inf just cause it supresses them it does not make it not anti inf 1. this doesnt make sense... its going to die to AT guns just as quickly as the flametruck 2. it deals alot less damage than the flametruck does... granted it does suppression Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 21:15 PMStug life a the pw wefer the unit that only has 160 range and has lower aoe and is an hit or miss , while the katy can fire from 200 range and can saturate and area leaving no chance to get away with 1 or 2 models , either u instant retreat or they are dead Irrelevant... all rocket arty is fired at minimum range lest they have almost no effect and no the pwerfer wipes much much better than the katy does... at any range Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 21:15 PMStug life pwefer is not bad but why rant about it ? i didn't say anything about it because you wanted a katy-pwerfer comparison... im sorry but the Pwerfer is better Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 21:15 PMStug life Saying kt is long range anti inf and the p4 and not listing the t 34 76 is pure bias, why do count basic medium as anti inf but not the t 34 76 ? the T-34-76 is made of swiss cheese having less HP than the average medium and dies to a sneeze from 2 AT guns... a P4 or a sherman would easily be able to escape death that would fall upon a T-34-76 and lastly this is coming from the faction with THE worst core infantry and machinegun ingame... just to note however... the soviets may have the squishiest and probably the least potent core vehicle AI.... but the soviet doctrinal vehicle AI are some of the scariest ones ingame.... ISU-152 IS-2 T-34-85 KV-8 even the KV-1 hence the soviets... even in their vehicles continue to suffer from the "doctrines for viability syndrome".... this has to end... people dont want to be stuck playing guards motor combined arms or armored assault to make up for the lack of good vehicle AI... TLDR; make core soviet viable... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: StuG life not viable12 Aug 2019, 21:02 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 20:39 PMStug life dude did u smoke ? aa truck is more durable than flame truck... emphasis on the it doesnt deal as much damage as a flametruck... learn to read and the soviet AAHT is very squshy... like the SDKFZ 251 it dies to 2 hits from AT guns... Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 20:39 PMStug life and what does the pwefer compare to aa truck.... it compares to the kat as u already listed ahh yes the katy... a unit that fires 4 rounds per volley and does 4 volleys with no suppression vs a unit that fires 10 at a time and suppresses everything in the area... sure it takes 0.5 seconds more for the rockets to land but the fact that it lands its rounds in much quicker succession means that it tends to deal alot more damage... all u have to do is overwhelm the micro of your opponent by attacking at a wide front then fire the pwerfer at whatever target you please... 9/10 times its going to deal a wipe... the katy on the other hand is more of an area denial tool and a weapon team destroyer... even then most weapon teams can usually pack up and run by the second volley of the katy... a weapon team on the other hand can never and will never escape the panzerwerfer... now im not saying the katy is bad... but the plentiful "panzerwerfer sux" or is "meh" arguments ive seen really doesnt apply for anything bigger than a 1v1... and even in 1v1s its sorta even with the katyusha... in 4v4s and big arse teamgames it can be quite punishing especially noting the infantry saturation and the presence of the OKW IRHT... Jump back to quoted post12 Aug 2019, 20:39 PMStug life saying the aa truck is not anti inf is like saying mg are not anti inf, and pwefer is not anti inf as it suppresses so it's anti blob its really more of a mobile machinegun... crutch for the maxim if you will... and machineguns arent there to deal damage but to apply suppression... the panzerwerfer on the other hand can do wipes regularly... but consider the AAHT as an antivehicle infantry if you will... it changes nothing... the soviets still have a chronic lack of any durable or long ranged vehicle based AI... something all other factions have in abundance OKW = P4, stuka, KT (very cost inefficient but has its uses in teamgames) OST = brummbar, Ostwind, P4, pwerfer USF = Sherman, scott UKF = churchill, centaur sov = katy... ??? and note this is on the faction with the worst core infantry and machineguns ingame...
