Thread: A Molotov problem or...?4 Jul 2015, 08:44 AM Jump back to quoted post4 Jul 2015, 04:09 AMdaspoulos Well to be fair molotovs should be buffed through accessibility imo. I also liked the suggestion of them dealing 40 damage initially and then do damage over time. Soviets are clearly showing their age. They have been the same since beta when the game was almost completely different. Cons should get molotovs by default when t1 or t2 is built in their current state. Upgrades shouldn't be removed and given out freely for teching up since it does remove player choice and alternative play styles. The Molotov should be adjust to a viable upgrade for what it costs. That way player choice is kept and more viable strategies can evolve (e.g. do I go for molotovs to try and bolster my early game to get a better share of the map or do I try to rush a vehilce?). One of the reasons why people say coh1 had more depth in certain aspects is because for instance USF had a lot of upgrades (nades, stickies, bars (global upgrade), demos, supply yard upgrades). The timing or if you planned to use them was up to the player and led to more viable strategies (rushing nades, going for bars or a fast m8 etc.). In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Heavy Tank Limit29 Jun 2015, 23:52 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jun 2015, 08:49 AMJohnnyB Hold it right there, the picture doesn't show one KT and one JagdTiger? I think this is the case that we are looking at, because, you know, patch notes said KTs are limited to ONE at a time, like any other heavy. I know how to read english, wtf?! The King Tiger is not limited to 1 on the field since it isn't a call in. You will find it missing in the patch note's list of heavies that are affected by the limit change. http://community.companyofheroes.com/forum/company-of-heroes-2/company-of-heroes-2-general-discussion/67-coh-2-changelog?p=179158#post179158 Relic did state that they are further evaluating on whether to limit the king tiger as well. http://community.companyofheroes.com/forum/company-of-heroes-2/company-of-heroes-2-general-discussion/179157-june-23rd-patch-notes-official-feedback-thread?p=179272#post179272 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Ostheer HMG too strong now28 Jun 2015, 23:08 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Jun 2015, 15:01 PMAlexzandvar Remember snares don't work against full health vehicles now; so it's not hard to rush past a gren squad to get at a sniper. An at snare does 100 damage. The critical is applied if the vehicle drops below 75% of it's health pool. The check is done after the damage of the at snare is applied. This means all light vehicles (m3, stuart, luchs, m20, scott, greyhound, su76, etc.) will receive a damaged engine with the current system. Only mediums and heavies do not receive engine damage if they are at full health. Jump back to quoted post28 Jun 2015, 22:30 PMSierra If I'm not mistake there are doctrinal abilities that increase the USF Riflemen's line of sight exponentially as well as provide flares for riflemen to use. The doctrinal feature you're referring to is the recon package (part of the recon commander). The bonus is 20% (if I recall correctly), which isn't exponentially or any good either on a unit that doesn't have a good line of sight. The ability is also bugged as it is bound to one entity. Should that entity ever be killed the squad loses the ability indefinitely. The ability is also so restictive that it will hardly ever come into play when trying to avoid an mg since it requires: - in cover - not moving - not in combat In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Tank smoke.27 Jun 2015, 20:45 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2015, 20:41 PMAlexzandvar If it isn't that wouldn't surprise me tbh, Iv not used regular Shermans in an age. I always go for the Scott + Jackson combo. Always been 30 munitions. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: US need more now.27 Jun 2015, 20:04 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2015, 01:20 AMAlexzandvar The .50 cal has much, much better suppression now and the Maxim did get the same buff other MG's got to shooting at larger squads meaning the maxim can suppress Volks and Fuss on the first burst. The thing is; this is fine. And USF is fine to. This is unfortunately not right. The maxim is bugged and didn't receive any of the changes made. Relic clarified this yesterday in their stream and stated that it is a bug that will be addressed in the future. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Tank smoke.27 Jun 2015, 19:55 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2015, 18:18 PMAlexzandvar Free deployable smoke on literally every vehicle with half an inch of armor if you made it the way the Sherman smoke is would probably be a little bit more OP than it currently is. I won't comment on whether anything would be op or not, however: Neither panzer tactician nor sherman smoke is free. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: No tech demo just poor design.23 Jun 2015, 22:05 PM I never had a problem with the signs. Even the best players walk into them and if they do spot them, they avoid the area with outsweepers -> area denial and see the mind game point There are also better and more obvious spots. If placed right, they can be rather tricky to spot. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: No tech demo just poor design.23 Jun 2015, 21:57 PM Let's fix this thread. Remove demos from Soviets and USF and give them s-mines (better in most regards in my opinion). - high lethality - no sight requred - wipes retreating squads - brilliant for mind games: just build one patch and then cancel and repeat - takes a very long time to defuse - even if units are walking through it with a minesweeper just throw a nade and watch the wipes (mortar also works nicely) - area denial In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Is COH2 broken?23 Jun 2015, 16:02 PM There are a lot of very helpful people on the forums who would give you useful feedback on what to improve in your play if you uplodaded a replay. Blobing is a faction independent problem. In: Lobby
Thread: Better Twitch Support for CoH2 *Relic*21 Jun 2015, 10:21 AM This might help a lot of new players to learn more about the game and stay motivated. In: COH2 Gameplay
