Thread: Shrecks. Blobbing in 2v2s and above8 Sep 2019, 12:56 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Sep 2019, 12:24 PMShadowLinkX37 You never played 1v1 vs soviets when they were OP then. Demo,s were indeed strong in 1v1 but imo not op. And mostly 2 or 3 where put down per game. Using 90 muni to mostly blow up single squads is strong but not game breaking. People will disagree with this. But how is the demo op for one shotting an inf squad possibly a blob But the teller one shotting lights and sometimes mutyple lights wich have way more value and shock value is okay and does not require manual input other then placing it, and at the time was a lot cheaper then the demo? Right now soviets have more muni sinks then before so spamming demo,s will come at the cost off upgrading inf etc. Unlike before where they floated muni. As it stand stands soviets have the fewest options for punishing or controling blobs. They also lack near instant smoke options to save armour from certain death. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Shrecks. Blobbing in 2v2s and above7 Sep 2019, 22:42 PM The patch seems to me to be on the right track mostly. However shreck blobs seem to be making a return. I have played 2v2 mostly and not in all games but in a large enough number i encounter both the ost player and okw blobbing shrecks with pgrens and fussies. A.k.a the anti tank satalite orbiting axis panzers. Its even more ludicrous then before. I flank the jagdtiger then from the edge of the fog of war 5 or 6 shreck deleted the slightly damaged t34 76s in a blink. This was the blob we forced off a munite before and was just returning while the okw shreck blob was healing in base. The axis where setup nicely they had a sturm panzer and mg,s plus pwerfer to support the shreck blob and jagdtiger. Credit where credit is due. And yes i made the mistake of going a t2 opening. The maxim barely stopped the blob and the mortar did not do much to push off the mg,s or hurt the blob. You get the point, without the penal sov cant realy push with inf. Still the shreck blob is back and both axis factions can do it now. Just remove the shreck from fussies. Its a cheesy stupid move to give it to them. I am fine with pgrens having shrecks, but something needs to be done to discourage blobbing of them. Imo remove the limit of 2 models on the mines And unnerf the demo. Allies can loose tanks in an instant so its not unreasonable axis loose inf in an instant imo. And no soviet arty imo does not do this in any reliable way. Its a small rant on my side. Does anyone else experience this or commit to this cheese? Pleas share your thoughts. In: COH2 Balance

But their windows end rather quickly unlike volks. Its just how you play shock units. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: September Balance Patch preview [SPBP] - general discussion2 Sep 2019, 16:10 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Sep 2019, 15:27 PMStug life im sorry if the opponent has to go with a doc to counter a very cheesy and easy tactic Just like only going volks wich invalidate cons and maxims from the moment they get flame nade and stg,s? Wich is pretty easy to as well. A doctrinal unit bring somwthing extra not replace the entire build order. Fussies bring minute 1 faust wich volks lack early on, they are not meant to replace volks entirely. What doctrinal inf does that? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet September patch discussion1 Sep 2019, 19:31 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Sep 2019, 18:43 PMVipper This is a wider problem and just focused on Soviets. Infantry power level has increased so much that building support weapon is almost not worth it. Ostheer are usually forced to built a HMG but UKF are better off not building one. That leaves the USF HMGs and that has more to do with "free" officer than anything else. Point here is that Maxim issues has more to do with how easily VG counter it than anything else. As for conscripts most of their issues also come from the St44 upgrade than anything else. I completly agree. They also dont want to touch volks really. 10 mp increase isent gonna do much. They will still remain a no brainer. Nerfing or replacing the flame nade is imo a must. Maybe put it at vet 3 and remove/move selfheal to vet 4/5. Its not something a t0 unit for 250/260mp should have so relativly easy. The have enough healing already. The mp40 replacing the stg is imo worth trying, i would also tie the flame nade to that upgrade or make it a vet ability like i wrote above. Then cons can fight them and volks dont counter its counter so easely. I also cant phathom why cons get 7 pop like all other main lines. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet September patch discussion1 Sep 2019, 18:24 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Sep 2019, 14:25 PMVipper Lowering the price of T2 will not make people go for T2 builts. It will simply allow them to back tech making T1 even more attractive. They will still have easy access to PTRS to deal with light and now easier access to ATG if the enemy rushes mediums tanks. T1 is currently superior offering too much for a small cost. It is as simply as that. I agree with t2 being cheaper just makes it easier to backtech. And t1 having a big bang for low cost. But as long as the 2/3 of the units t2 provides remain lackluster, the zis while good also has no use so early on. T2 will not be a appealing opening tier. So all you can build then is utility units that support support units. The specilized units of axis will be more then a match for that. One can also depend on call in inf such as guards and shocks like in the pre penal buff era. Imo penals do not deserve to have side tech as long as cons require so many recources in side tech esp in this patch and still depend a great deal on doctrines just to be on par. The sacthal and at satchel have enough drawbacks to be balanced as they are now imo. In: COH2 Balance

The p4 panther and heavier tanks arrive far earlier the they do in 1s. Also flanking is next to non excistant in 4s except on 1 map. This leaves the t34 sherman and cromwell with a very tiny window to be effective if at all. Why bother if your 90 - 130 fuel is mostly a waste. Td,s is a much more efficient and safer option.
