Thread: Volks are disgustingly good, need toning down.25 Oct 2018, 17:38 PM I think the StG44 upgrade is a bit too good. An MG42 for Volks would be interesting if it were doctrinal. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: So, how about bring back Riflemen Smoke?25 Oct 2018, 17:31 PM I like grenades the way they are now. Grenade Tech could be cheaper, though. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF radical design changes ideas25 Oct 2018, 16:38 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Oct 2018, 15:53 PMLoopDloop Ah ok. Does that mean their mid and close range dps is greater? Also, how do the total squad dps’s (4 garands, 1 BAR vs 2 stgs, 3 volk k98s) stack up at those ranges? Huh good to know. Makes me a bit sad though. It’d be great to at least rework airborne commander and tweak timing on recon support a bit for the reasons I mentioned that make it hard to use their callins to the full extent though. Point Blank: Rifles and 1 BAR: 6.79x4+13.2= 40.36 Volks with StGs: 4.74x3+7.52x2= 29.26 15 Range: Rifles and 1 BAR: 3.44x4+6.5= 20.26 Volks with StGs: 3.04x3+5.57x2= 20.26 Basically, a BAR doubles the firepower of one rifleman. StGs add 40-100% firepower to the guys holding them, except at ranges of 32 and above. With no upgrades, rifles do 45% more damage point blank, but become about equal to volks at range 20 and beyond. 2xStGs are better than 1xBAR at all ranges below 30. In: COH2 Gameplay

But up until last December, Wehr's tech cost was 1020/250. Both factions had access to everything if they paid a similar amount. I'm just saying that USF weird teching is one of their main problems, and I think the solution is to lower the costs a bit. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: USF radical design changes ideas23 Oct 2018, 16:20 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Oct 2018, 15:20 PMVipper Total fuel cost is not really comparable since only UKF and Ostheer have linear tech lines. Soviet UKF and USF are designed to skip techs. I think it's worth bringing up because it shows why USF players have to be more stingy about getting all of the tools their army has to offer. It's not a very big deal for a Soviet player to get T1 and T2, because those tiers are inexpensive, along with the rest of their tech. A USF player who gets their weapon upgrades, ambulance, a lieutenant, and a major has spent 205 fuel. That's the same as an Ostheer player who has everything. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: USF radical design changes ideas23 Oct 2018, 15:05 PM I'd just like to point out current tech costs per faction (minus starting resources): Ost: 920/205 OKW: 900/235 Sov: 1005/220 USF: 940/255 UKF: 1160/250 Also, USF and OKW have to pay fuel for healing. I think it would be a good idea to change costs before trying something drastic. It may seem minor, but the following change brings the total tech cost down to 230 and makes side teching easier. Grenades: 20 Weapon Racks: 15 LT: 40 CPT: 50 MAJ: 120 In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Infiltration commandos 3 men at spawn21 Oct 2018, 17:25 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Oct 2018, 00:11 AMKatitof I know, just certain other someone believed its fair and balanced. I was just pointing out that Commandos have better grenades, which is good for their performance with fewer men. I think Stormtrooper grenades should start on cooldown as well. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Infiltration commandos 3 men at spawn19 Oct 2018, 20:54 PM I'd like to point out that the Commando's Light Gammon Bomb is significantly scarier than the Stromtrooper's new Incendiary Grenade (interestingly, the light Gammon and bundle grenades are identical). That means that Commandos' damage is affected less by having fewer models. Overall, I'd say that the Stormtrooper infiltration solution is more elegant, but I don't mind that there's a difference, especially when Commandos can become a 5-man squad. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch18 Oct 2018, 20:18 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Oct 2018, 20:03 PMKatitof Yes, I got little ahead, however the 2nd part still stands, the hose had to be removed to use the gun. Oh, ok; that makes sense. I also think that swapping weapons is a cool feature to have in game. I like your idea of a penetration buff for the gun. That way, it can hold its own a little better against more armored vehicles, but not become more dominant over infantry and light vehicles. In: Lobby
Thread: Feedback for Commander Revamppatch18 Oct 2018, 19:49 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Oct 2018, 19:43 PMKasarov I could've sworn the flamethrower just replaced the coaxial and not the main gun. I wouldn't think the KV-8 would even be able to swap to the main gun at all if it really used the main gun barrel. It does in fact replace the coaxial. Also: I am in favor of Overwatch getting the Jagdtiger. Heck, I wanted them to steal Panzerfusiliers from Breakthrough as well. In: Lobby
