Thread: [Winter Balance Update] Bug Reporting23 Dec 2020, 11:15 AM British bugs spotted: Solo mortar pit gets a 2nd ghost mortar after having braced. So after brace is over, you get the regular mortar pit from live version, without having upgraded. Churchill self defence nade isn't working. It drives up to the range and something like a nade is comming out of the hatch, but nothing happens then. Both tested in a regular custom match, no other mods were on. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] SOV Feedback23 Dec 2020, 08:20 AM Sorry guys, but why should the Cons Accuracy nerf be reverted? The balance team did absolutely right. Cons are the cheapiest inf squad with the possibilty to get 7 men. In late game, they are not meant to stand their ground versus other infantry. There is a reason why cons can merge, build sandbags, lay flares and have AT and AI nades. Their only purpose later on is to support team weapons, hold flanks and make suicide rushes for AT nades and own flanking attacks with Urah. Either Volks and Grens with StG and LMG should definitely outperform cons, not only because of their higher MP reinforcement costs but also their Ammo weapon upgrades. For that reason the removing of the +10 Accuracy at Vet3 is defintely the right way. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OKW Feedback23 Dec 2020, 08:12 AM I would suggest to replace the new Recon Plane with the flares ability from Spec Ops, so IR HT could perform as a mobile spotting unit like the Wehr halftrack from Strategic Reserves. This would also balance those flares because of its limited range and the need of building an IR HT. In addition, Spec Ops would have 1 commander slot free. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: No use for Panzergrenadiers23 Dec 2020, 08:07 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Dec 2020, 22:00 PMJibberJabberJobber That's why slot weapons (read Panzerschrecks) are being moved to front models of Panzergrenadiers in the new patch, in live it's carried by the rear models that always slack behind. In practice that should make them feel like they have more range. I absolutely appreciate that change. It was really necessary and feels great ingame. But the change shows, that I made a point here ;-) In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] UKF Feedback22 Dec 2020, 22:11 PM Why are Royal Engineers still not the starting unit?! I don't get it...all Factions start with their builder suqad, except British. Please, fix this finally! All in all, solid and very good changes. The direction this goes seems perfect! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] Bug Reporting18 Dec 2020, 10:12 AM Jump back to quoted post17 Dec 2020, 22:25 PMelchino7 What you test and what you complain for seems to be 2 different things. This is the bug report. What you tested is friendly fire damage, which seems to be different for the PF nade, benefiting OKW. Outside of indicators, i think the AoE profile should be the same after the changes in one of the latest patches of this year. Look here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1H5z6szCfhmAAnDprmgwLzc-viZg4HPhKZshNLErvnck/edit#gid=1619743570 I also tested this with no friendly fire and came to same results. I just switched to FF because of models not dying that fast And the reason why I posted this in the Bug Reporting thread is that the damage indicator seems to be broken for PF and Tommy nades. And this has also nothing to do with FF. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OST Feedback17 Dec 2020, 19:11 PM Sorry, but that's exactly my point: Wehrmacht has 0 light tanks. They only have this scout car, which has do deal vs. LV AND LT. And as I said, you have to look at this in reference to the new balance patch: Better AT squads for Svoiets and better Vickers for Brits. Both can easily counter 222. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OST Feedback17 Dec 2020, 18:44 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Dec 2020, 18:02 PMvgfgff 222 still is the strongest light vehicles in early game(3-5 minutes). It need 3 shot from AT or 7-8 shot by T70 or 4x Ptrs salvo to take down. Its survivalbilty and HP are already good enough. 222 do have a auto cannon that can chase and kill other early vehicles include m20. Sorry but I doubt you have ever played with 222. - 222 needs 2 AT gun shots to get destroyed. Only with Vet3 it gets some additional HP to survive 2nd gun shot - fastest build is 4:40 minutes. (good fuel income, T1 skip) - Autocannon has pretty low penetration of 35 (vs. AEC 63%, T70 50%, Stuart 44%) with very low damage of 20 It's by far not the strongest LV in early game. You can deal with it with every squad because all weapons can penetrate its armor. And the only LVs you can "chase and kill" are Soviet clown car, Universal Carrier, WC51, M20 and all Halftracks. But you go high risk if you try to kill USF Flak HT or Soviet ZSU. Most of the times, you loose your 222. In conclusion, learn your facts. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] Bug Reporting17 Dec 2020, 18:29 PM Hey guys, can you please fix grenades? I tested Rifleman grenade, Infantry Section grenade and Panzerfüsilier grenade: USF and UKF are absolutely the same, but british costs only 25 ammo and shows too small damage indicator. Panzerfüsilier grenade is worse than both, but costs same as USF nade. And on top of it, the damage indicator is too big. I tested with friendly fire and with no cover, just open field: - direct hit on model: USF & UKF nade dealt 60 damage, Füsilier nade dealt 20 damage - model touches the circle of the damage indicator: USF & UKF nade dealt 40 damage, Füsilier nade dealt 0 damage. In conclusion: 1. The damage is different between allied and axis nades 2. The damage indicator cirlce of Füsiliers is bigger than the real AOE 3. The damage indicator cirlce of Mills Bomb is smaller than the real AOE Bring standard grenades in line: All 30 ammo, same AOE, same indicator circle. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OST Feedback17 Dec 2020, 14:03 PM According to new patch preview: I highly recommend to increase 222's armor or, at least, give it an armor upgrade same as M20 utility car has. Reason: With the new Vickers Vet 1 ability, almost every MG is now capable of dealing with light vehicles. On top of that, Soviets are getting better infantry AT with new Penals with PTRS. For Wehrmacht, the only faction having no light tanks, this is a huge disadvantage in game. There is absolutely no need for allies any more to get an AT gun in midgame or any other AT wepaons, cause there are enough soft counters on field. Even right now without those changes Armored Cars are having problems to fight Bren/Bar blobs, cause of their high damage. And please remember, 222s are no T70s or Luchs...they are less potent which means, a better armor won't OP them! Please keep this in mind. And don't misread my post: Vicekers and Penal PTRS buffs are absolutely fine! I appreciate them. But I fear Wehr will get big troubles until P4 or Ostwind arrive, which mabye come too late...
