Thread: Why Stuart is sh*t compared to T7013 Feb 2022, 20:57 PM Stuart, like many USF units, is incredibly over priced as far as fuel goes. The MP cost is fine but fuel costs in general for USF are through the roof. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Pioneers vs Rear Echelon30 Jan 2022, 06:41 AM RETs are one example of several garbage-tier units in the USF roster that cost way too much. They can basically be ignored by any of your units if encountering them alone. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USA scotts (M8A1)30 Jan 2022, 06:28 AM Took a break for a year or two and it's good to see the same changes being made to favor Axis playstyles. Heaven forbid we have any units or strategies that effectly counter the two sacred Gucci factions. UKF is so laughably bad now and USF isn't that much better. For USF they've basically removed any early game advantage you had with Riflemen by making Grens better, and of course you're still dealing with early Panzergrens and MG42s, not to mention sniper play and mortars. And people want to whine about the Scott. Reminds me of when people where whinning about the Jackson and got it nerfed just because it was good at killing Panzer IVs. I mean hello, it's a tank DESTROYER, it's supposed to be good at killing tanks, and the P4 isn't even the top tier stock tank for either German faction. But of course the "community balance team" gave in and did it anyway, they'll do it again for the Scott. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Has anyone noticed Grenadiers are really good?30 Jan 2022, 03:22 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Jan 2022, 20:14 PMKatukov "far from op" far as in Hermann Goering's jumping distance I know right? USF has, for most of the life of this game, been the harder faction. What sucks now about the Gren thing is that USF pretty much only has Riflemen to rely on in the early game. So now literally the one and only thing that was supposed to give you an advantage basically isn't there anymore. Despite the fact that USF has so many things available early game, those things are almost all completely useless. Who's going to pay to unlock weapon racks, grenades, or even get an ambulance before teching to T1-2? Those things are all totally irrelevant T0 because you don't have the resources to utilize them In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Has anyone noticed Grenadiers are really good?24 Jan 2022, 19:58 PM So to add, the Gren+Panzergren infantry line up at the moment works a lot better than the Riflemen + double BARs thing. So you don't really have an infantry advantage to press without going Paratroopers. Even Rangers seem to preform poorly against this stock line-up. Brits do seem to fare better if you get the super expensive bolster upgrade, and double Brens are not overly expensive. Soviets seem to be able to manage the best. A lot of the UKF/USF nerfs don't make any sense now that the grens are better. Seriously, what early game advantages are left for USF now that your opponent's stock infantry will outpreform your own (along with their armor and team weapons. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Has anyone noticed Grenadiers are really good?24 Jan 2022, 04:17 AM From a 1v1 perspective this is probably the best stock infantry unit. Now I'm guessing they modified this unit because of survivability problems in 3v3 and 4v4 games where MGs become less effective since they're easier to flank. I hate when they do that though because they usually end up screwing things up for 1v1 games. Fighting OST in 1v1 matches is pretty tough right now. If someone is building 3-4 Gren sqauds they're going to wipe the floor with Riflemen, Conscripts, and definitely 4-man Infantry Sections. Penals do well against them, and the Penal+Scout Car and Flamethrower Combat Engineers will overcome the Grens+MG42 spamming. Is this still a 240mp+60muni unit? Kinda ridiculous they're wiping much more expensive units. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF Real Echelon only viable with doctrine ?.18 Jan 2022, 05:23 AM RE are indeed a terrible combat unit. The problem is, a terrible combat unit shouldn't be 200 mp. There are so many garbage-teir units that cost way too much with USF. In: Strategy Desk
Thread: What’s the point of Stuart30 Dec 2021, 06:52 AM It would be better and help you counter the ridiculously OP MG42s if not for the crutch Panzergrens (which arrive WAY too early, negating your infantry advantage and ending any viability of light vehicles). Works pretty well against OKW but they'll always have the extra man power for two raketens so always got to remember that. In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: Is the m1919 worth it's cost?30 Dec 2021, 06:47 AM USF has second-worst unit and tech costs of any faction, the one worse is UKF. 70 munitions and you can only get one is simply not worth it. It costs a shit load of resorces just to keep your head above water with this faction so why pay more if you don't have to? In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: 2021 UKF Guide19 Dec 2021, 21:39 PM UKF has an incredibly unreasonable amount of side techs (some of which are also unseasonably priced) that should go bye-bye. The main one is probably bolster. 35 fuel for this is absurd, even more absurd it's placed behind T2. The community by and large has wanted to neuter this faction and they've without a doubt done it ovwr the last few patches. In: UKF Strategies
