Thread: Katyusha “Creeping Barrage” vs. Stuka zu Fuß Barrage12 Dec 2022, 22:43 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Nov 2022, 20:01 PMHannibal The big question mark for me is: Is it really worth the additional muni cost? 40 mun is not a "huge" cost, but you'll get the normal barrage for free. The first 2-3 salvos will usually land in an area that your opponent will vacate anyway once he knows where the barrage is aimed at, even if he thinks it were a normal barrage. And if he is looking at the front line and notices the Katy hitting unusually close to his troops afterwards, he might just dodge it alltogether. I've always opted for the normal barrage and put those 40 mun somewhere else. With blobs, shotgunning your Katy with the normal barrage is still your best bet, but the consistent long range accuracy of the creeping barrage is huge, and it can and will punish team weapon spam. I've noticed it can also consistently destroy or decrew pak 43s behind shot blockers, which can otherwise be a pretty big challenge without off maps. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Has anyone noticed Grenadiers are really good?4 Mar 2022, 18:14 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Mar 2022, 18:01 PMT.R. Stormjäger Also Maxim > Vickers, idgaf what people think. Vickers is literal filth, no suppression whatsoever and literally useless once suppressed. Idk, I'd say the 50 cal is more disappointing. At least the Vickers once you get past the struggle bus of getting it veterency, you can spam its vet 1 to countersnipe snipers, outrange MGs, and get some damage on LVs in a massive arc. Little consolation for an MG that can't do its singular purpose in life though. the 50 cal is sad through and through, especially with it getting the pleasure of being a 4 man squad that deathloops In: COH2 Balance
Thread: buff 251 AA HT OKW4 Mar 2022, 17:59 PM I have only ever used this phrase as joke, but I think now it genuinely applies in this situation: This seems like an l2p issue. Both playing with and against it, its comically easy to keep alive with smoke and common sense. Its not even much of a skill gap its all stuff you do whenever you build any LV like: "have screens" "get an AT gun at some point" and "don't mindlessly charge into AT walls" its just not that difficult. Why are you putting a LV in a situation that lets your opponent get 2 shots off on in the first place? If your unit dies, its your own fault for putting it in that position. It has good timing, good cost, good area denial/damage at vet 0, and with veterancy it ascends to a god unit that quickly mows down units that enter its range, and then zooms away before a tank can come to miss all its shots chasing it.

Thread: 120MM SOV mortar1 Mar 2022, 09:59 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Mar 2022, 00:15 AMReverb I believe 120mm should have range and AOE nerf. Sooo, its only selling points that make its cumbersome setup times+limited arc and slow ROF worth it? Not that its perfectly balance as all things should be... The removal of its retreat button is more than justified, and it is enough to punish players who use it too aggressively (while we're at it can we do it to the rak too?) and build a bunch of them like dicks because all you need is a normal composition, and an opening in their lines and you can wreak havok on their entire setup.

Thread: Perhaps MG 34 needs to be reworked?25 Feb 2022, 13:03 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Feb 2022, 16:57 PMLady Xenarra After seeing the 50th+ squad that continues crawling towards an IAP firing MG 34, I must disagree with this. If you don't respect an MG with mainlines, it's not doing its job. You should be punished hard for continuing to stay getting shot by this thing and the threat of being pinned simply isn't doing it in the MG 34's case. I mean, do any of the mgs really pin all that well compared to the Dshka and mg-42? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why is the Maxim so bad?14 Feb 2022, 20:42 PM As someone who mainly plays Soviets, I think the Maxim is good if you manage your expectations. It won't be as good as the 42 because nothing is. Wehrmacht is designed around having strong team weapons, and weaker mainlines to compensate. The main power of the maxim is the hilarious group suppression it has. for every infuriating time some pgren has crawled through my maxims suppression to yeet a bundlenade on it, or my poor maxim got face wiped by a g43 blob without even firing a shot, theres another time where the maxim with sustained fire suppresses an entire push within a second, regardless of whether or not half of the army was in its arc or not. If any mg needs love its the 50 cal. mediocre suppression and damage because of bad ROF, bad arc, and a small squad size to get easily death looped, so it has none of the benefits of the vickers and maxim, and all of their flaws lmao. Now the Vickers basically does the 50 cals main selling point better once the vickers gets vet 1. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: ISU-152 concrete piercing round13 Dec 2021, 08:34 AM Jump back to quoted post13 Dec 2021, 07:46 AMVipper And let say that ISU-152 does get such an ability and can now manhandle to Elefants and JTs from the front what would be the options for Ostheer/Okw to deal with ISU-152 then? Elefant and JT can beat the ISU-152 for good reason. Guaranteeing penning on shots doesnt mean the ISU will win, it'll still lose, but there wont be hilarious bounces from a massive shell landing on a Panther and then "dink". That being said, I think I agree with you, broken clock being right twice and all that. if you got munitions to burn and add vehicle mark on top of it, you can just end the career of any tank of your choice. I would argue its better to keep the ISU's stats constant since lets be honest, its already an absolute monster when its well supported. I'd rather the ISU get an ability that gives it actually useful utility and not necessarily just a straight stats boost. But then again, when compared to the other heavy TD abilities like the Elefant's cursed stun shot, or the JT's busted HE barrage on top of their strong base stats, guaranteed piercing rounds wouldn't be completely unreasonable.

Thread: ISU-152 concrete piercing round12 Dec 2021, 22:48 PM You created this monster, now live with the consequences. In all seriousness, there's a fine line between making it useful and making it OP, the ISU does not need a 70 range stun shot for example, what Heavy TD would be balanced with that? And turning it into essentially a double tap shot is just the original problem of it erasing squads with extra steps. IMO the least gross option to make it less sad is to simply rework it as a timed ability that let's the ISU's rounds pierce thru shot blockers for like 30 seconds or so, a clone of the JT's ability.
