Thread: OKW needs buff?25 Oct 2020, 15:11 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 14:57 PMachpawel The post is completely incomprehensible and not OKW related. Have a beer mate your argument of winrate being completely irrelevant is equally nonsensical... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW needs buff?25 Oct 2020, 14:54 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 14:32 PMachpawel Do you have a playercard? The fantasy world, well, is not really my thing. I will use Your arguments: Most decent players state that OKW needs some overhaul and it is weak at the moment. The winrate stats are not to be used in balance and they are largely decided by automatch mechanics and hundreds other factors. Why don't You just read and accept what the author of the stats you use to back Your claims wrote about them? IMO most problems with OKW stem from their tech, most future balance changes attempt to address that (to be checked on the forum). It is hard to treat most of the stuff You write other than bias. soo by your argument winrate is irrelevant... OKW UP give nuclear bomb since 100% winrate against allies is irrelevant... also we should completely remove all guns from the soviet faction in the game after all in the battle stallone grad they only gave 1 gun per 2 soldiers :v ohh yeah and the earth is flat and the sky is green In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW needs buff?25 Oct 2020, 14:25 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 14:09 PMachpawel Most people is not an argument. It is better just to read and understand what the autor of the graph(s) wrote about how it/they are created and how he himself believes they are irrelevant to balance discussions. It seems to be another repeated too many times a myth here on the forum that winrates tell you a lot about balance. It is extremely harmful to balance discussions. Your claim about Soviets (based on the graph) too. what is extremely harmful is the countless waves of suggestions to nerf the soviets despite being the faction with the lowest winrate... of course youre just gonna keep on claiming the earth is flat despite data saying otherwise soo if youre gonna believe in your little fairytale land thinking that OKW needs some major overhaul unlike the actual weakest faction ingame then im sorry to disappoint...

Thread: OKW needs buff?25 Oct 2020, 14:03 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 13:22 PMachpawel That is actually a hell of a mistake to think like that. Completely irrelevant to balance. Read what the author of those stats wrote about how to interpret them and how specifically it is ill advised to use them for balance purposes. Extremely wrong to use it as a balance argument. Will lead to a lot of bad balance decisions. yet most people actually agree with the data and state that the soviets are the weakest fac in game... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW needs buff?25 Oct 2020, 11:17 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 10:57 AMachpawel IMO it actually is in 1v1 for sure. https://www.coh2.org/topic/105597/1v1-automatch-stats/page/1#post_id822826 that statement is disproven with even basic objective analysis... by far and large sov has the lowest winrate at all positions of the ladder with an average of 3% difference to the highest rated faction and as much as 10% difference in the 2.5 to 12.5% ladder and consistently maintains some of the lowest winrates in the ladder... Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 10:57 AMachpawel But still - you didn't reply how balance in your opinion is connected with winrates. if a faction is weak and uncompetitive it will have lower winrates across the board... this is reflected by the graph In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW needs buff?25 Oct 2020, 10:34 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 10:30 AMachpawel How does it affect/is it related to balance in your opinion? OKW needs streamlining not an outright buff... its main issue is that trying to get healing while getting out a good LV is equivalent to shooting yourself in the foot... if that issue were fixed OKW would be pretty nice to play otherwise... now if anything needs a major rework its the worst performing faction in the game... and that isnt OKW In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW needs buff?25 Oct 2020, 09:37 AM how odd is it that the same guy who tried to nerf the worst line infantry of the worst faction now asks for buffs for his favorite faction... despite that faction having decent winrate... yeah okw needs some changes... mostly its teching is really far and off at the moment... id start with healing... healing is in BGHQ while the useful units are in MechHQ Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2020, 05:08 AMnwglfls or Allies can have some nerf? you need a buff In: COH2 Balance

Thread: SU-76 - A Slight Adjustment22 Oct 2020, 09:30 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Oct 2020, 09:19 AMSerrith Oh i know the pentration and armor values, I was wondering if the educated individual i replied to did. But seriously who builds su76 to counter heavies lol. Even on maps where you "don't get flanked". people who are insane enough to think that the soviets are OP.... despite being the weakest faction in the game In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Conscript 7th men too much?21 Oct 2020, 04:11 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Oct 2020, 16:26 PMPip Regarding your point on Volks: Cons and Volks are reasonably comparable early, aren't they? I'm not sure Cons are totally rolled over by the Vgrens, though I have admittedly not done extensive testing. Volks definitely get a spike when they get STGs, but this isn't an immediate upgrade, and i'd presume it should factor into their "cost". (plus, like, Volks kind of suck lategame as a combat unit. Aren't Cons significantly stronger when 7manned and vetted?) 1. volks are slightly superior to cons off the bat but the fight isnt unwinnable... 2. volks will bash cons to the ground once they get the stg while the soviets have to fight tooth and nail to survive till T-70/7 man 3. as mentioned before conscripts need to upgrade to get their molotov and snare while volks get their incendiary and panzerfaust FOR FREE with tech 4. vetted volks can beat vetted cons in close range but will lose at longer ranges 5. all of this is the reason why despite having an OP powerspike of a light tank, a top tier AT gun and a complete vehicle roster along with some of the strongest heavy tank callins the faction still has the lowest winrate in the game at all levels of ladder... the faction simply has an unworkable mainline (unless airborne is used) Jump back to quoted post20 Oct 2020, 16:26 PMPip Volks don't do so well against Allied elite infantry either, nor against US and UK mainlines arguably. Not in combat terms, unless they get extremely favourable engagements. no but conscripts are worse in all respects... and USF kinda struggles against a bit buildings due to the lack of incendiary... in certain maps it can be pretty easy to punish USF unlike UKF...
