Thread: There is something should be done about rocket artillery.16 Jan 2016, 09:36 AM Jump back to quoted post15 Jan 2016, 14:13 PMNEVEC Click my name in replay. Thanks for that. I think what everyone means though is to put your playercard link here on coh2.org. So it's easy for people to check how much a player plays each faction and assess potential bias. Mine, for example, shows a clear preference for OKW and that makes me somewhat blind to the weaknesses of the allies. So when someone is reading one of my posts, they can take into account that I do not have the full picture. Anyway, up to you. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: There is something should be done about rocket artillery.15 Jan 2016, 13:06 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Jan 2016, 07:37 AMNEVEC I wasn't blobbing at all. You can check my name in replay noob. You asking for my playercard but it's already here. Where is your playercard? It isn't anywhere that I can see. I somewhat agree about rocket artillery. They should all be the same range as the werfer imho and some of them should have the damage on their rockets reduced. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Redesigning USF Crews.15 Jan 2016, 12:27 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Jan 2016, 01:53 AMLuGer33 Crew repair isn't going anywhere nor should it. USF can jump out and repair crit because its armor is (relative to OKW, OST, UKF, and to a lesser extent, Soviet) pure paper. Its most survivable tank -- the Pershing -- has less armor and the same health as a Panther. And that one can't be decrewed. Do we really want or need everything from every faction to be the same? To have the exact same strengths and weaknesses? Why even have Americans and Soviets and Germans and Brits when we can just have mirror matches? It's frustrating to see threads like this and comments like: No, they're not. At all. USF armor and AT options are outclassed in all respects by Axis counterparts. Far easier to kill, often w/ less micro required (e.g., drive Panther straight at any US armor and win, drive any US armor straight at Panther and lose). Taking AT, the health, armor, mobility, and costs of the tanks into the equation, it stands to reason that USF has an ability that allows its armor to survive and get back into the action fairly quickly. Sheesh you think USF late game is poor now and you want to remove crew repair, lol. Better buff USF early game even more because the faction will have no chance past the 15-20 minute mark w/o survivability buffs to all of its armor, up to and including the Pershing. You make a good point that the US tanks are weaker than other factions' late-game tanks and therefore should have some other sort of advantage. I can agree with that. I'd rather the advantage wasn't crit-repair though. If an M20 mine can totally disable a panther, which is then helpless, I think a Sherman should not be able to magically undo engine damage if it has gone too deep without support. Also, Shermans are much cheaper than panthers. So the "drive straight at 'em" argument seems a bit flawed. Tbh I think the ability to decrew and reduce popcap is already enough of an advantage so the insta-superglue repair seems superfluous. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: USF light vehicle abuse disheartening new/average players15 Jan 2016, 12:18 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Jan 2016, 18:17 PMwhitesky00 Dude really? you're going to call someone out on playing Allies but most of all of your games are Axis... talk about hypocrisy why would you build 2 AT guns for 1 light vehicle? 1 well place one is more than enough. 2 is instant kill. Let's see T70 requires T1/T2 40/50 fuel then T3 is 85? Then T70 is 70 fuel? Assuming I am right on those numbers... that's a minimum 195 fuel with no side upgrades. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. Luchs requires mechanized HQ (50 fuel) and to build luchs (65 fuel)... total of 115 Can you now tell me what you're comparing? A T2 tank versus a T3 tank that costs almost twice the price and longer timing... If anything I will call you out on bias. You made kind of a fair point. The last 6 months all I've played is Axis. I used to play allies though, you can check that. I didn't call him out on only playing allies though. I called him out on making biased posts. If you don't believe me, do a search for his posts (he's well-known on the forum for trolling, insulting people and flame-baiting.) If you check my posts, you'll find something like 25% agree with calls for nerfs to axis units or buffs to allied units. As for your point about the AT guns. If you want to kill a light vehicle, you need 2. Stuart takes three hits. Microed t70 can take 3 too (self-repair after first hit). I've seen top players calling for light vehicles to be moved back in tech as they come so soon and end the fun early-game infantry battles. The Luchs could also be moved back to my mind. Either that or give Ostheer a fast light tank too. Everyone else has some kind of vehicle with decent armour that can come out fast except Ostheer. I also never said the Luchs was balanced.

Thread: USF light vehicle abuse disheartening new/average players13 Jan 2016, 13:27 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Jan 2016, 13:10 PMKatitof Wehr have wide selection of units in each tier to counter everything specifically to respond to allied player, unless you dominate, you're not really supposed to dictate pace of the game as wehr, unless you use sniper or play vs brits. You're not ABLE to dictate the game as Wehr. There's nothing written by Relic about Wehr not being supposed to dictate the pace of the game. You made that info up as you often do in your 1000's of biased posts. 7600+ posts. How many of them call for a nerf to allies? What's your estimate? 1%? Having to build 2 AT guns just-in-case of light vehicles when what you really need is AI to stop the hordes of infantry is punishing. If you complain about the Luchs vs the Brits but not about the t70 and US light vehicles vs Wehr - that's bias. You don't know enough about this game to say which faction should be dictating pace or indeed if any should. Drop the self-assured tone. You haven't earned it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 13:43 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Jan 2016, 02:42 AMGhostTX Could we nerf the Sturmpanzer or Sturmtiger? I mean, they're high damage area effect tanks, too. No need for them to have tank HP when they decimate blobs and support guns (and tanks) with such one shot ease, too. The range of both those tanks is MUCH shorter. They have to come into the line of fire to get off a shot, the Calliope can fire from deep in the fog of war. I have no idea what you wanted to say. Calliope CANNOT be compared to Sturmpanzer and can only vaguely be compare to Sturmtiger. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A way to nerf calliope without overnerf11 Jan 2016, 09:39 AM Some choice moments: Jump back to quoted post10 Jan 2016, 23:57 PMCookiezNcreem The whine is too stronk. So, as unbiased as possible I will suggest some nerfs: Everyone swears this thing is firing 30 demo charges when it fires.(nobody said this C&C) Agreed. And this is perfectly fine IMO. So before you start bitching and moaning at me Werfer is just as bullshit lethality wise Stuka is just as bullshit lethal vs support weapons Katyusha should be buffed to match these Get over it axis fanboys. That's "as unbiased as possible"? "Get over it Axis fanboys", lol. Why don't you try addressing your posts to the rational people on the forum and not fighting troll fire with troll fire? I mean, you eventually made some good suggestions for how to fix the Calliope without making it useless. But there's like 3 paragraphs of insults and aggression before you got there. I play only Axis but I'm capable of reading a post about an allied unit without insulting you. There are a lot of users here who will read what you say and take it on board. Otherwise having to dig through your "bullshit" "whining" "fanboys" "get over it" "bitching and moaning" is hard. That's a childish way to write. "Well cookies, we have all this Insta wiping arty! This sucks!!!!one!!" GOOD. Artillery is he main cause for death during WWII. It was a GREAT INVENTION. Artillery was indeed a major killer in WW2. That doesn't mean this game will be more fun with more of it. You're supposed to be commanding a small company with limited access to hardware, this way it's not a game of spamming high-level tech but mixed arms. If all factions get super arty, it'll lead to worse gameplay. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: WTF Bofors?11 Jan 2016, 09:24 AM Brace is a really annoying game mechanic. It forces a non-fun gameplay style. Barrage area brace Barrage area Barrage area repeat And until the bofors is gone, you can't go in its area. So boring. I don't think CoH is as fun when there's a lot of indirect fire vs emplacements. This video is a nice example of what its like to play vs bofors + brace + self repair https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r1IiTIQCzk So yes there's a counter to the bofors. but NO, it is not fun. I didn't sign up for fckn angry birds ww2 style. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF light vehicle abuse disheartening new/average players10 Jan 2016, 12:02 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Jan 2016, 10:53 AMC0H2Player The M20 is not as shocking and game breaking as the Stuart, which is available 5 minutes in game and is supported by CPT. It can sometimes one shot axis units, has a crush similar to mediums, the critical ability shocks other vehicles and it takes 3 and some times 4 (OKW AT) AT shots to die. This definitely shouldn't be the case with a "light support" vehicles. While ostheer has no counter aside from their support (Pak, Shreck) which shouldn't be so in competitive RTS, OKW can't afford a puma that early either and it is ALWAYS a bad investment; low health and no AI. It is so over performing that most players have just abandoned the shermans and build a stuart and wait for callins. Please reduce the health and give it a defined role, AI or AT. I've not had such an issue playing vs the Stuart. Raketens and shreks will finish it quickly and it doesn't do huge damage to infantry. It seems quite innacurate too. It will sometimes one-shot you but that's a clumping issue, not because of the stuart. Do you have a replay or two of you having trouble with one? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: CalliOPes10 Jan 2016, 11:56 AM Jump back to quoted post10 Jan 2016, 11:50 AMMaschinengewehr So you don't think its performance accounts for its cost? Its the most expensive self-propelled arty in the game after all.. It is expensive but when a long-range artillery unit has tank armour and mobility combined with lethal splash, it's too much. There's no trade-off. In: COH2 Balance
