Thread: Okw vs USF balance plz5 Dec 2020, 06:12 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Nov 2020, 20:10 PMKepler 21 kill vet 5 volks sturmgewehr vs 7 kill vet 3 bar rifles. Range 10. Who wins? Bar rifles. Easily I´ll add. Wake up balance team. USF is nuts to play against esp combined with that uber-cheesy 50.cal WC51. Just focus on the strengths of your preferred faction and realize you have it a lot easier than your USF opponent. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] USF Feedback1 Dec 2020, 18:20 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Dec 2020, 13:09 PMT.R. Stormjäger Greyhound needs to arrive at 3CP instead of 4CP. Not even that. It should just be buildable from the barracks like the M3 HT after T2. I'm not onboard with the higher vet requirements for RETs. The unit's combat performance is so bad it can basically be ignored by axis infantry as it is, why bother nerfing it's vet requirements? Why nerf Jackson again? I get axis players hate it but so what? It feels like they're the ones deciding what changes need to be made to other factions. I mean if you look at the forum here you'll notice most posts are made from the point of view of playing against USF, UKF, or Soviets. Most OST posts go the other way. The point is, if you're playing against USF you are supposed to hate Jacksons, Pack Howitzer, double BARs ect. That doesn't mean any of those units should be nerfed. They never will nerf the MG42 or Panzergrens. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OST Feedback27 Nov 2020, 04:20 AM No nerfs to Panzergrens despite their early arrival and overpreformance, no nerfs to panzerschreks. No nerfs or changes to HMG42, despite it being the most powerful starting unit in the game by a wide margin. No changes to early Panzer 4 rush even though it's a better tank than the equivalent of any of the allied factions. So I guess we're still going with the ez mode crutch faction theme of Ostheer. Well, okay then. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] USF Feedback27 Nov 2020, 01:45 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2020, 01:01 AMProtos Angelus Jackson is fine. Easy8 needs buffing but that's obviously not in this patch. Rifle company does not need M1919. It needs a rework but again, not in this patch. Rear echelons are cheap as it is and can carry 2x zooks for late game scaring away Non-heavy tanks. The reinforce reduction is welcome. Agreed with the Pershing. Let's say the Pershing is normalized to one: so ROF is 1, survivability is 1, penetration is 1, agility is 1... etc. If tank X has slightly lower ROF then it's got a ROF value 0.75 and if the ROF is slightly better then it's 1.25 .... (increments of 0.25) etc. Tiger compared to Pershing: ROF: 1.5 Survivability: 1.5 Agility: 0.75 Ability: 1.5 AI power: 1 (MGs and abilities enhance this from 0.75) AI one shot potential: 0.75 AT power: 1.25 (going against lower armoured vehicles and better ROF improve that from 1) Accuracy: 0.75 From my point of view, Tiger, which is comparable to pershing in terms of cost (except that it's 2 measly pop cap higher), has much better stats and trade offs compared to Pershing. If anyone says "but Pershing has better AI". True, it does. But it does not have better AI by a factor 2 or 3, but by some couple of percent. Pershing's AI is 10% or so better than Tiger which does not justify having worse pretty much all aspects except for agility. Combined arms with a Tiger will always win vs combined arms with Pershing. Especially if you manage to keep rifles alive so that the population cap is the problem (if you go for pak howis and ATGs, which are poor vs Tiger unless you have the munitions, or rangers). Calliope nerf is also warranted. Pak howi... I don't know. Whereaboos screeched about it being OP but it's useless vs non-static opponents and super useless vs any "catch out of position" plays, which induces bleed. Don't know why you would nerf the near and mid distance by 50%. That's a lot. That's a big nerf. Blobs alert kind of nerf I think, time will tell. This is the biggest WTF: People screeched and compared the Scott to Brummbar, and the balance team gave in it seems. Which potential does M8 have? Pretty much every game I have played with USF, I always went for double Scott since only one is useless against anything but the biggest 6+ squad blobs. And since it won't fire over obstacles unless you direct it with ground fire..... It needs sight to autofire, so I don't quite see how scott was in any way overperforming for this kind of nerf. The fact that scott is really micro intensive because of that autofire thing, how did it exactly deserve a nerf? How does an arty vehicle, which, if behind any sort of sight blocker, is given a command to attack a squad, will not attack the squad but instead try to get as close as possible and then attack, deserve a nerf? You nerf the autofire by a huge margin, especially with that Panther range and buff barrage by a insignificant margin. So now, Scott sits in base until it can barrage with it's low damage shells that are only good vs heavy campers. Sturm, can you explain the reasoning behind that Scott nerf? Right now it's nothing but a glorified smoke dispenser. Yeah I read through the changes and I'm surpised they want to go after the M8 Scott. That's a unit I rarely use and good giref it's not THAT potent, it's a very thin skinned vehicle that is easily countered with any AT. They want to nerf the .50 cal? WTF why? It's already one of the most expensive MGs and it's not nearly as good as one shall-not-nammed MG that is non-doctrinal T0 that NEVER gets any nerfs. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Lower POP counts in next patch26 Nov 2020, 22:59 PM I'd like to see an accross the board pop count reduction on all stock medium and heavy armor by 1 or 2 accross the board. Panthers and Churchills should not be 19 pop that is absurd. They should be 17. Jacksons and Fireflies should be 15. Shermans and standard P4s can stay 12. Pershing and Tiger 1 should be 18. IS2 19.

Thread: [Winter Balance Update] USF Feedback26 Nov 2020, 22:51 PM USF is generally in a good spot I don't have much to ask for myself except for the following: - Would like to see the Jackson get it's armor back, if not then at least lower its fuel cost back down to 140 fuel. - Give the Easy 8 WP rounds, and Rifle Company M1919, would be nice. - Maybe lower the cost slightly of a few overpriced units, namely Assault Engineers, Pathfinders, Rear Echeleons. - If they only make one change for USF though, that should be to fix the Pershing. It's a terrible heavy tank that doesn't do anything well. This is really the most important change they should make to USF IMHO. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: First Quarter 2021 Balance Patch26 Nov 2020, 03:34 AM Will they fix the issue in chat when you tell your opponent to "f**k off" it no longer spells out "garden off"? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Will they address Panzergrens in the new patch?26 Nov 2020, 02:52 AM The unit arrives way too early, pretty much negates the idea that Allies have better "mainline" infantry. It should go back to the building with the AT gun. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why Soviets are OP26 Nov 2020, 00:12 AM Jump back to quoted post23 Sep 2020, 08:00 AMGiaA What are these supposed weaknesses? Well they probably have the worst armor suite in the game, atleast doctrinally. Their most of their crewed weapons are vastly inferior to what everyone else has, their non-doc armor isn't really THAT great either. In: COH2 Balance
