Thread: Wasp17 May 2018, 00:25 AM right now it is viable and works well, enjoy it being useful while you still can. getting nerfed next patch with every other British unit though (tommies, sniper, AT tommies, bren guns, centaur). In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Firefly need to be cheaper16 May 2018, 20:03 PM vipper if you're going to use stats from almost two years ago I can do the same with any unit and claim they are balanced or OP (also to build off what firesparks said you used the same old stats on commander upgrade, it's been nerfed a while now). when you get proven wrong 5mins later by the actual statistics it makes your argument rather weak to say the least. I see you are stills scrambling to defend your point yet ignoring the great survivability the JP gets in comparison to the FF. FF still remains a glass canon until the end, im fine with this. But it needs to be brought down to JP price, either that or reduce cost of tulips. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Would You Change How USF Techs?:15 May 2018, 23:32 PM Personally I feel USF are in a good place, but m20 and zooks need a bit of love. Maybe a small AT buff on the stuart too. Quite happy with tech and officers, if they were not free people would ignore them and spam paras/rangers. Jump back to quoted post15 May 2018, 23:21 PMShadowLinkX37 They should be balanced around each other. I.e. if both factions have support teams in t0 they should be equal. Instead of 50 cal > MG34 and M1 > rak But not all factions do, are you forgetting soviets and maxim t2? It's a bit silly to change USF scope in regards to OKW balance when other factions still lack certain elements. if OKW tools are that bad then buff them (really can't see what they are lacking bar the slightly UP MG34), but nerfing allies even more to screw up Ost balance is not the way to go. 50.cals already get nuked by rifle nades.

Thread: Would You Change How USF Techs?:15 May 2018, 23:19 PM Jump back to quoted post15 May 2018, 18:42 PMShadowLinkX37 If you make USF tech more linear and friendly, they'd have to either nerf the power of the 50cal and m1, or buff the OKW counterparts. factions should not be balanced around OKW Rak is fine and balanced thanks to stealth/retreat, MG34 could use gaining vet a bit faster but stick on AP rounds and it goes to town.

Want me to make a video of a damaged FF sitting still trying to kill an MG while double stug drives up and wipes it in seconds? hell I could do the same with one stug and stun lock considering in your sample the tank was only 75% health with no escape route. JP4 would have no issues killing damaged tank stuck on the edge of the map too In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Firefly need to be cheaper15 May 2018, 00:24 AM Jump back to quoted post14 May 2018, 21:00 PMthedarkarmadillo OH no not slower than a tiger! The turret exists and it does provide benifit ESPECIALLY to pathing. Being able to shoot things while navigating the shit ass pathfinding is a boon. I never said it was great but it exists. Don't play stupid. Just because it's not the OP Jackson doesn't mean it's not at a slight advantage over one's without a turret. The trait being there =\=, being the very best at it. You can use attack ground to get the turret mostly in place. Moving back and firing at a unit trying to flank you is a thing that can be done with a turret (no matter how slow it is) that can't be done without one. the trait being there doesn't mean it's useful if it's so damn slow it has next to zero impact (which is true when you compare to a JP that has faster rotation). If your argument was sound the FF wouldn't be a sitting duck the moment something gets close like all casemate Tank destroyers (again JP, stug etc) so it has the same weakness and is not worth calling a perk. As for your argument it can fire on retreat that's laughable, any player worth their salt will reverse awayway where any TD can return fire with a bit of micro. It's not hard and this is how you deal with diving tanks, not doing a massive U-turn while the snailpace FF turret takes a millenia to turn to the back of the tank or your Stug whatever has their gun pointing away from the enemy. You conveniently ignore my FF MG point, this I was hoping was where you would understand your leaky logic. What "perks" as you call them are worthless if there are no solid stats to make them useful, this is why I brought up the MG's. They are useless and the FF turret in the grand scheme of things is worthless too. If you're still not convinced I implore you to look at that firesparks video earlier in the thread, you'll see the JP snapshotting targets and rotating to targets quicker than the 440mp 155fuel firefly.

Thread: Firefly need to be cheaper14 May 2018, 16:52 PM Jump back to quoted post14 May 2018, 15:30 PMthedarkarmadillo Still has a turret that allows for poking in and out of cover or firing while retreating. It's slow but it exists and it's a perk. The KT is slow, should we treat it like an emplacement? FF has even slower turret rotation than a tiger, it's not a perk when the rotation is so bad you might as well just class the thing as a fixed gun TD. As I say rotation is so poor it suffers from same weakness as JP. Going by your logic the FF also has great anti-infantry because it has two MG's and they exist, they might do the weakest DPS in the game but it's a perk and all those shreked pgrens better cower in fear. Please look at my avatar in response to reading such grasping at straws. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Firefly need to be cheaper14 May 2018, 12:12 PM Jump back to quoted post14 May 2018, 00:47 AMShadowLinkX37 DPS = RoF. That has nothing to do with accuracy, target size, cost, utility, turret, damage and vet. If we were just going off DPS the StuG should win any tank v tank fight EVER Can we stop acting like the FF turret is worth anything when the JP can basically rotate faster than the shitty slow ass FF gunner? any axis tank can eat the thing for breakfast flanking, just like allied tanks could flank a JP. They have the same weakness; if you drive around them they are toast (it's just a lot safer for Axis as brits lack snares). That last point in brackets is why FF needs some love, everyone puts this thing in a vaccuum despite its weaknesses not being covered the same way Axis can. 6 pounders were nerfed, AT tommies were nerfed into uselessness, comet nerf, cromwell nerfs... British AT needs some lovin In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Bofors14 May 2018, 11:47 AM I thought the pick between AEC/Bofors was supposed to be a tactical one? Not a no brainer because the bofors is S*** and you need AEC to survive flamer HT/Luch cheese. Answer is to buff bofors AA, half pop cap. Maybe we would see them built again In: COH2 Balance
