Thread: "balancing" discussions are ALL pointless30 Sep 2018, 12:17 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 12:13 PMAlphrum Sturms should have ther STG's back ther far more effective as unit with them. Its funny how all the people saying mp40's are better are all mainly allied players can we give partisans DPs aswell? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Teller mines and OHKs30 Sep 2018, 11:53 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 11:51 AMdistrofio Is heavy engine damage implemented in the game? How it would differ from a broken tread? Just asking, im curious. ever tried ramming with a T-34? or recrewing a tank that was about to be destroyed? it cant move at all... and even if it can its moving at extremely slow speeds...

Thread: "balancing" discussions are ALL pointless30 Sep 2018, 11:50 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 11:10 AMVipper I am sorry I have to point out this but I think that the problem according to you is that Relic and the mod listen to "wehraboo" instead of listening to "allied fanboys". That approach is completely flawed in so many way that I will not even start explaining why. The idea that AI partisan and Storm troopers are used the same way is also completely flawed. Actually in live partisan are more cost efficient than Storm troopers especially as infiltration unit. I would be nice if we could elevate the debate above the level of "wehraboo" and "allied fanboys", the forum would be a much better place is these words where not used again. considering the extremely low winrates of USF and UKF? yeah id say theres something wrong there... i dont wish relic were to listen to allied fanboys... but relic shouldnt listen to wehraboos aswell... they should listen to those who play all factions with little bias as to any faction... anyways ai partisans are really effective when used vs wehr... able to quickly respond to an mg42 and/or eliminate a sniper or demolish dat squad annoying your main force really quickly... however are completely useless against OKW storms on the other hand are not only good infiltrators vs T2 Sov builds USF (major/ambulance grenadier) UKF (same argument as ostheer) but also effective mainline infantry when added to the lmg grenblob... though even that is ineffective vs the powerful T1 sov build... anyhoo this patch reduces storms to ambush gameplay just like the AI partisan...

Thread: Teller mines and OHKs30 Sep 2018, 11:44 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 11:26 AMdistrofio I want to ask something, is the problem that teller mines do 0HK tanks? or is this a demo charges got nerfed and then should something in axis get nerfed too debate? Apart from that. Maybe teller mines could get the damage/cost reduction. I agree that is a good way to improve their usage and remove the 0HK feature. Another way to reduce their huge damage but in a balanced way could be making them seriously shock the crew inside, stunning them for a few seconds. Enough for a pak to finish them if they are properly overwatched. Im running out of ideas to be honest... tellers and demos should not OHK targets... pointing out the demo nerf is there simply to point out wehraboo hypocrisy... actually i think beast hunter got it right... heavy engine damage instead of standard engine damage but a reduction to 400 damage... it prevents the OHK but it leaves the tank absolutely helpless if unsupported...

Thread: Teller mines and OHKs30 Sep 2018, 11:15 AM scratch MOWAS though... doesnt display penetration potentials properly... and range scaling still occurs in that game... plus really big HE rounds still arent lethal enough... and according to MOWAS the jagdtiger has 250mm armor on its glacis... what?

Thread: Teller mines and OHKs30 Sep 2018, 11:08 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 10:46 AMdistrofio Tanks had no armor on their bottom side, so a OHK on ligh tanks is absolutly accurate. Teller mines were effectively the most dangerous mine to any armor. If you cant accept that then COH2 is not your game... then the TM-33 should oneshot lights too... and the IS-2 ISU-152 should rip off king tiger turrets in one shot... bad idea? it is... this is a game with a bit of history and should be balanced accordingly if you want REAL history... wait for steel division 2 or play MOWAS In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Teller mines and OHKs30 Sep 2018, 11:04 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 10:56 AMdistrofio Maybe because indeed humans have low shock wave resistance? Also no smart man would leave demo charges at plain sight to be destroyed? Maybe im not a developer and did not pushed those changes at all? Maybe my opinion is just similar as yours, but you dont know it yet? soo lets bring back the old demo and make it even? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What about snares?30 Sep 2018, 11:01 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 10:53 AMdistrofio Could you take a moment a read all the sentence before spitting out BS? Its about giving POSSITIVE FEEDBACK, if you want to troll or flame then im calling a moderator... I've said, it would make the game harder or more challenging, in favour of new strategies or tactics, since nuking a vehicle with a homing satchel nuke bomb or destroying a tank hitting its frontal armor its dumb. Also pointing out the muni cost could change. T70 are fast, but still would get either damaged, or worse shocked to get hit by a PaK. Im just asking you to be nice and stop bitching. i did read your entire sentence... i get why your suggesting the topic... flanking with units to get engine snares instead of crew shocked or gun damage sounds like an interesting idea... unfortunately it would right away break the balance of the game as stuff like grenadier panzerfausts shot by very squishy grenadiers is gonna be tough... this coupled with the lack of light tanks would make OST extremely unattractive... cons-OORAH/AT penal + hotpotato should be less affected bcz of the T-70 the M3 car and the hotpotato being able of nuking an tank to smithereens either way... same goes for volks + luchs + ambushrak... but they wont be as well off as the soviets... overall if these changes are implemented id expect the soviets OKW to be far stronger than wehrmacht overall... penal PTRS can still ram + hotpotato a panther... but wehr will be helpless vs a T-70 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What about snares?30 Sep 2018, 10:48 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 10:41 AMdistrofio Maybe adding a snare to UKF using their PIATS, with and ambush ability like the one in vCOH or simply by hitting rear armor. Maybe reduce their range to balance their new capability to snare a tank. Even tank shots that hit the rear armor could have an RNG cmponent that indicates to inflict engine damage. this one is a must... i even won against a churchill an AVRE and 2 AT guns with 3 panzer 4s simply because they had absolutely no snare to catch my P4s... after that match i concluded that UKF really badly needs a buff In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What about snares?30 Sep 2018, 10:46 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2018, 10:41 AMdistrofio Other idea i once had is for the penal squad, and their PRTS rifles. To change their snare satchel homing bomb nuke to a tread/wheel shot. It is known for tank crews that treads are quite fragile, they are a weak point in any tank, so using their rifles to actually damage the treads is sensible. It could have longer range to compensate the lack of the big explotion of the satchel, but both abilities could be used altogheter, firs break the treads, then later blow it to smithereens. Tread shots would require an aiming animation and could potentially immobilize the targeted vehicle. PTRS are really bad anti tank weapons... satchel nukes are their only saving grace... id rather keep the satchel nukes over getting tread damaged In: COH2 Balance
