Thread: 70 ammo for just 1 Panzerschreck still, Why?14 Aug 2019, 13:24 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Aug 2019, 13:07 PMMaret You are just descriped cons))) Could build build sandbags, throw lolotovs and at-nade after researching. But you alwys have better unit in roster) IRC Sturmpio have the most highest speed of repair (and got boost, if you purchase to them minesweeper). Royal engeeners need top-tier building and specific upgrade for it. If you soo much want get them clear role: "AT package" 100 muni (or how much cost pgrens shrecks now?) - 2 pshrecks + at satchel (like penals have) + ability to detect armor units in minimap (like soviets have in some doctrines). Lost ability to repair vehicle, drop medkits and build any structures. Now you have 2 possible upgrades and 2 distinct roles: 1. Minesweeper - engeeners 2. AT package - at-hunters Actually that is a great idea. To make it a good, strong AT unit. It should sacrifice some of its current eqiupment for that. Royal Engineers are pretty good. They are a better combat unit when they can get 5 man. They are much more cheaper. Tough I somewhat disagree since Royal Engineers does not have to sacrifice ANYTHING for way better equipment. So much tech and so many varities to enhance its AT and repair capabilities. Even AI for that matter. 5 man Royal Engineers are already nearly as fast as Sturmpio repair. Royal Engineers on top of repair upgrade is simply way better. Not only they improve their repair but also combat. Thus Royal Engineers are better but even scale way better. Conscripts, no wonder they suck because of the immense utility, same goes for units that have too much utility such as the Sturmpio. Both feels, many utility, decrease overall performance. Well, it seems not so much for Royal Engineers tough. There should be a tech for units like that,decision between either performance or utility kind of unit. So that they can be made more usable. It should applied this concept to all factions. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: RAKETENWERFER, Stay or Change. What say you?14 Aug 2019, 13:15 PM *Sorry about the immensive amount of questions, just would like to clearly see what you guys think and hopefully the Devs an idea of how we think the Rak is and how it should be.* Every Allied, Axis and Neutral Fanboys/girls are Raketenwerfer as many of you know has been an issue for quite a long time. It has not been dealt with properly as it is yet been clearly defined. I feel its suits too much the recon role that it sacrifices a lot of AT potential, thus making it an overall unreliable AT support unit. It can be frustrating since the feature of Camo that can move on mobile whilst in disguise for an AT support weapon is simply strong and unrealistic. Frustrating not only for Allies but also for the ones using it on the Axis side. Camo, I personally think it should be removed to fulfill a better AT role as it should. Since it fails to meet its class role or to even properly fulfill its AT role. It has a huge problem in terms of survivability which makes it all the more unreliable. Not only that its minimal range makes it extremely difficult to make follows-ups and place a second shot. It has a bad response time due to this issue, thus it makes an unreliable independent support weapon. Range is the biggest factor as to making it a good support weapon because that is the period when it starts aiming. Its current window to aim is too short that its response time feels rather slow. The fact its shorter than most, it can not live up properly as a decent support weapon. Ends ups always getting too close or too far. There never seems to be a right or suitable spot where it efficiently support. Being currently forced to get close, meaning increasing its chances of losing Raketenwerfer because of its strong RA modifier. It's chances of dying is increased simulatenously, thus making it nearly a useless weapon to use. Scaling makes this the worst AT support weapon as it becomes more and more vulnerable, not to indirect fire only but to stronger tanks it can not even handle properly. It dies too easily in my opinion. It is simply the most stupid unit to play with and against. This is my opinion though I believe some you might feel the same/similar way or otherwise. Feel free to give your comments and your opinions. I do hope that it will changed because I am really tired of the way it currently functions. I think it really needs some changes, nerfs and buffs. To improve the gameplay overall. Anyway, I will leave up to you guys to decide! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 70 ammo for just 1 Panzerschreck still, Why?14 Aug 2019, 12:22 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Aug 2019, 10:58 AMSander93 You got any statistics on that? Daily average player numbers of 6000-8000 (Steam playercount stats) indicate a monthly active playerbase of at least a hundred thousand, likely much more, and combined with the high popularity of mods and maps in the Steam Workshop (top mods have 420k-470k subscribers, top map has 200k subscribers) it's very likely that people still play custom games in significant numbers. I assume that multiplayer is the main mode which most people play is due to the fact that it is more fun and addictive. Custom games AI is very repetitive and unchallenging, that is my opinion. If talk about most games that features multiplayer, multiplayer is most peoples n1 choice since it brings more excitement. ______ The point is, I feel that the current "AT package" for Sturmpio should be more a suitable designated AT role rather than a costy inefficient package. ""I mean 70 is a lot for something especially which provides insignificant AT support as in comparison to Penals 60 AT package. The price and difference and efficiency between the two are hugely distinctive, leaving Sturmpio as the most cost-inefficient unit AT package available in game."" Even then, OKW lacks real proper AT equipment. Mobile AT and Rak being off worse than most units available due to its seemingly unreliability. It should be adjusted so that they are made competent and have a good deal of potency as in contrast to most other factions. The package should be changed so that it can better fill the role and has a purpose as means of providing support than a costy inefficient emergency AT package. Despite what utility Sturmpio has got, it sums up to be a total mess of undefined class, partaking many roles and not good in one specific role. "Jack of all trades, master of none". I guess that is how the Devs thought of it as they did not know exactly how to actually define it at all. Sturmpio in the game "Steel Division" defined it way more properly as to how it actually was, "not jake of all trades but defined". https://steeldivision.gamepedia.com/Sturmpionier Does many roles in such an inefficient rate. Relic should redefine Sturmpios especially Rear Echelons (since both are undefined and not used willingly) role so it may be improved in some areas whilst removing and replacing some of its current accessibility.

Thread: 70 ammo for just 1 Panzerschreck still, Why?14 Aug 2019, 10:24 AM Jump back to quoted post14 Aug 2019, 09:56 AMSander93 I believe people can still play with Blizzards in custom games. I do not play custom games. No one really does since online is what most people play. 1v1 or online matches, there are no blizzards. There is more reason as to why it should be removed since mulitplayer is more popular and it should be adjusted accordingly in that manner. It be adjusted according to its current rules and gameplays. Blizzard no longer plays a role, therefore it should be removed for something else or just remove for a price decrease. I want to use it willingly, with some purpose and viability which it currently has none, in multiplayer. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: LELG is overperforming by ALOT14 Aug 2019, 10:19 AM What is changed with the LEIG though? From what I have noticed, nothing really changed with it since the patch except for Veterenacy. Performance yet remains the same. Only against static units. Definitely not OP In: COH2 Balance
Thread: LELG is overperforming by ALOT14 Aug 2019, 10:06 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2019, 22:10 PMCODGUY Most things OKW overpreform. I'm almost convinced the whole faction exists as it does to serve as a handicap so trash players can get a competitive game in. It simply does not overperform. There is simply many reasons as to why they do not overperform since they are exposed to many weaknesses. They have decent support weapons but those are which I would consider some of them less reliable than most. Raketenwerfer which is more a scout role than a proper AT role. Other AT guns are far better. Their light vehicles are easy to counter and they really do not have a proper AI focused vehicle like other factions such as Ostwind, Centaur, M8A1 or even like T70. Luchs which is decent but I would not consider that good nor the FHT (does not perform that well unit you get vet 2, its accuracy and consistency from vet 0 is real crap). All in all, it is a decent faction but is definitely not over-performing. It has problems thus its not OP. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 70 ammo for just 1 Panzerschreck still, Why?14 Aug 2019, 09:51 AM Jump back to quoted post13 Aug 2019, 23:38 PMaerafield Hey dont forget you also receive overpowered freezing immunity with the upgrade, thats why it costs 70 instead of 50 or 60 True. Does it not mean that this package is outdated and has clearly been overlooked by the Devs? They should really change it according to how the game is now and not how it used to be back then. If anything, it is a pretty outdated package. Either its deliberate or they did not even notice it at all. If by any chance they have realised it, why has nothing been done to it or at least the function and the description for it. There is clearly no reason to have cold immunity anymore to add onto this ridicule price. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 70 ammo for just 1 Panzerschreck still, Why?13 Aug 2019, 23:14 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Aug 2019, 21:09 PMthedarkarmadillo Just let sturms stow them and call it a day. The single Shrek is to be supplement AT not game carrying. Okw has AT of all shapes and sizes, but man AT isn't their strong suit and there isn't anything particularly wrong with that, assuming the rakk can be changed to be somewhat more reliable The price fo the Shrek, I feel is fine. It shouldn't be an easy choice like Shreks generally are, it's more emergency AT than anything and the urgency has a price As to the PTRS, I'd see the IR HT removed to the spec ops doctrine in place of flares and altered to function differently then put a tank hunter squad in its place. 4 men with PTRS and a satchel snare or maybe a Faust barrage (like the nade barrage but fausts, just high damage like the snare to prevent pushing) upgrade to Shreks or a 5th man? Despite what you think about the Schreck, I still think it requires some improvements, particularly the Sturmpio. I like the 5th man option though but it then should be available after 1 base built costing also 60 or 70 ammo. I mean this emergency idea is just something I just heard out of the blue. Is it what is stated or assumed because it is called "AT package". Not emergency. Which other can you actually find this so called "emergency inefficient overpriced AT" for any other faction? Respectively, from what I can recall, no other has this "emergency kit" feature. All other having proper and viable AT choices and viability leaving OKW in the worst spot possible. Something has to be changed and fixed because it really is currently inefficient and too costy for being so. It really seems OKW is being purposely bullied by whomever with the attempt to cause huge AT department deficit which they do experience a lot, very frustrating, like this Sturmpio 70 ammo AT package 1 Pzschreck. Really, Why? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Riflemen need a buff or Volks need a nerf?13 Aug 2019, 22:44 PM I think Volks is not really something that should be taken into consideration. If anything that is I can tell about OKW, early game advantage. It is the fact they have Sturmpio to help them advance efficiently. What exactly: - Close in enemies, thus draining their health exponentially - Play a role as bait which helps Volks maintain their DPS when closing in on enemies - Decent dominance early (although they do really suck later on) but they are the main reason for Volks dominance If Volks were the starter unit instead. I am quite certain that OKW wont have that same early advantage at all. When Sturmpio dies early, you can be certain that OKW will have no early game advantage. ____ I think what would be a nice dynamic change is if they make Volks slightly more expensive and Sturmpios slightly more cheaper. Switch and change the gear between them so that both be used independently. Though they should fill different designed roles from the way it currently funcitons. Just some way to avoid Volks spam and have at least the option to choose willingly Sturmpios also. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: StuG life not viable13 Aug 2019, 22:27 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Aug 2019, 21:29 PMMaret Main target for stug - allied mediums, not heavies. It hardcounter any medium, but if your enemy build heavy - build panther, pak or another stug. Or you want that 1 stug could deal easily with is-2? Build 3 stugs (cost will be like 1 heavy) and you have hardcounter to is-2, churchill or any other heavy. If you want OST copy of su-85...balance. You have doctrinal elefant as su have doctrinal t-3485. I just can't understand why you want that OST T3 have ALL tools to play in any timeframe? Maybe we also will add to OST t3 werfer and brummbar to have AI against static defense? Why not? It was already proved that STUG do it's job and do it pretty well. No need to rework units that works, we have enough broken units that need rework (cons-penals problem, maxim, su-76, wstuka and e.t.c). JP struggle against heavies? You are joking? The best non-doc OKW tool to keep in bay any ally heavy. No one never will be dive with heavy on JP4 (only noobs will do that). You just give it free vet and will go to the repair. I am not complaining but it just according to what I have experienced, I simply believe that Panther has somewhat better penetration than JP4. Maybe I am wrong, but otherwise it is a good TD to counter most Allied Tanks. I just feel Panther fills the boots way better in contrast according to my encounters against Heavier Tanks.
