What kind of improvements?
PD: Katitof, check your private messages, thanks. |
And what did Quinn Duffy say about the future of COH 2 ?
Any improves? any changes? |
Factions are different, yes.. But when something is OP in the game, you need something to counter it.
Atm soviet snipers only counter is to charge with all your infantry and try to flank from behind to kill them (you have to take a high risk to kill them) if you fail, you will probably have squad loses plus the territory that will be capped because you have your troops at base. This strategy is not viable in these maps where flanking is more dificult (rails and metal, semoskyi summer,etc) Of course that might be balanced in 1v1 (because we don't ususally see T1 snipers in 1v1's) but remember that there's a lot of people playing 2v2 games as well, and it's here when it becomes unbalanced. |
I like your idea Scheme.

+1 Cruzz !! |
Because the amount of manpower and Tiers used in Ostheer side is higher than Russian side.
That means that, with the same amount of resources, the Russian player will have much more units in fiel than you will have.
Not to mention that Ostheer squad size is lower and you need to retreat and reinforce more often. |
That would be fine if garrisoned units in vehicles would have x2 penalty from snipers (like it was in coh1). That'd be a good counter for Russian Sniper + clown car. |
But at the moment people is abusing on Sniper + guards + mines and there's almost anything in Ostheer T1,T2 that can counter it.
Maybe increasing Guards CP should balance this situation. |
Russian Tier 1 vs Ostheer Tier 1:
There's no unit in Ostheer Tier that counters soviet sniper. you are forced to charge with your infantry.
At least in Coh1 you had bikes.

I don't understand why Ostheer and Russian snipers have the same cost (360 manpower).
I can agree that Russian sniper is expensive to reinforce and the second man would die very fast and I agree that Ostheer sniper is very useful against shock troops but I'm talking about Sniper balance. I'm not Ok with the fact that the counter for Ostheer sniper is a soviet sniper, but not vice versa (and both have the same cost).
In a game like COH, the counter for a good microed sniper should be another microed sniper.
1 unit per sniper in Russian faction would be enough. I know they have less Rate of Fire but german squad size have 4 units while Russian have 6. |
