Thread: Countering pathfinder-->Mortar/50cal/ATG--->Scotts build?26 Sep 2021, 22:55 PM RE builds cover for 3-4 pathfinders to snipe. Pathfinders w/ zooks then spot for mortar/50cal/ATG. Is there a counter to this strat other than waiting for p4? In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: Player Ranks in Loading Screen?12 May 2021, 02:36 AM I'm a casual rank ~1000 player and I play mostly USF and Ost. Occasionally when I get beat badly, I'll check the rank of the players I'm against using player search and it's often 500+. Sometimes top 20. How is this possible?? There should be a feature to track this either having the ELO displayed while loading in or some SC2 favored mechanic so you know when things are about to get rough. There are also times when I want to try a new BO or switch things up, but not when I'm getting matched with someone several leagues ahead... In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Matchmaking is bugged at the moment?9 Apr 2021, 05:22 AM In my case, I can't even de-rank. After a -10 loss streak starting at rank ~1000 the loss (-11) reset me to -1 and then I went from rank 1100 back 1000 xD. Negative ELO hell. But for real across the board 2v2+ there's been 0 wins.

Thread: How to use Guard Rifles and Shocktroopers3 Apr 2021, 19:23 PM Guards need to be stationary to use the DPs, so they're good to use defensively behind some heavy cover your cons build or a building. Shocks are great anti-inf and I use smoke even when MG is not there a lot just to get into close quarters to deal with LMG grens or obers which can bleed them as they close in.

Thread: Late game performances of Volksgrenadiers and veterancy3 Apr 2021, 18:35 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Apr 2021, 18:23 PMelchino7 Total tech cost is less important rather than at which time you are forced to pay for those costs. This is a pretty important distinction. Sov early game vs. OKW is harrowing with 3x conscripts 2 engie standard start against an s-pio 3-4 volks start. It's extremely predictable since the only way sovs can survive is stall to a T70. I feel like if you can keep your 3 cons alive to T4, then the additional performance is deserved. It's a lot less risky to do a T1 penal start... but then OKW is not fighting 7-man cons. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Use of ML-20 Howie?24 Feb 2021, 21:47 PM So does the distance of the gun to target affect the scatter at all for B4 or ML-20? Or is it the same scatter even if you build one close to the front line vs. right outside your base? In: Red Army Strategies

Thread: Use of ML-20 Howie?19 Feb 2021, 18:24 PM I'm just curious what other players target with this unit? I usually only build it in meme games when I want to spice things up rather than build a katy. It seems to be very hit or miss and very easy to dodge the volleys. Even against bunkers the scatter of each shell is so high that I'd rather have a close range katy volley. What's the point of this unit over a katy? In: Red Army Strategies
Thread: Why do volks get sandbags...26 Nov 2020, 18:12 PM This is a pretty oppressive mechanic in anything above 1v1 since in team games you can just sandbag up/camp one side of the map and stall for armor. Playing against OKW in 1v1+ is especially terrible since standard volks openers allow sandbags to be built almost anywhere and then when STGs/MGs come around you're just stuck slow-grinding until tanks. Attacking with LV is only possible for T70s that have enough dps to shoot volks out of cover from the side before rakens reposition. If you pick LT as USF or non-lend lease, you basically have mortars and nades which is countered by just repositioning and rebuilding the sandbag or dodging the nade.. Trying to push volks out of sandbags is near impossible with just infantry play in the early game. If you come at the squad from the side, you still are taking heavy losses since that squad has STGs. If you're unlucky, the ost teammate already parked an MG42 there and you're shut out from that side of the map until the midgame. Engies should really be the only unit able to build sandbags...or remove volks STGs until higher vet or something.. In: COH2 Balance
