Yeah there is just no reason at all why it doesn't. I don't understand why the Ost HT got so much love and the M5 was just ignored for some reason, even though the Ost HT is actually used more. M5 is just a cheap AA solution and nothing else.
Because combined arms I guess. Non of the other factions need to use CA as much(more like hamstrung to rely on). all of the other factions can deploy strong infantry compared to ost too. Do you have an idea how insane always on fileds shocks or guard are going to be backed up by merging cons, 6 man maxim and zis. You'll never win. |
I've been saying this for months: The Soviet M5 should heal squads inside it just like the 251 HT for Ostheer.
Why?? ost has no easy/fast vehicle repair(repair station, crew repair, con repair) options like the sovs do. Also the airborne troops commander provides a forward reinforcement point with aura based healing supply drops. Where the hell is having advantage in one sector being offset by disadvantage in another spear going. |
They only start with Kars because spawning out of garrisons would be too powerful otherwise, their actual default weapons are MP40's which have elite weapon stats:
Doesn't matter why.
0 / 15 / 35 range:
elite G43 - 13.263 / 6.877 / 3.5-ish
These stats on the pg g43's seems old. They received buffs to their mid and long range.
(0-6) / 15 /35 :
12.84(aim times cant be lower than a frame or 0.125 sec) / forgot / 4.11
It's more of a sidegrade than anything, one of the most prolific Stormtrooper users - Captainsprice - strongly prefers MP40 Storms over G43 Storms. But you have the choice since MP40's don't lock out other upgrades.
Who wouldn't. The g43 upgrade on stormies suck cus they cost more than pg and are worse than pg one under range 31. And getting m40's with g43's is a bad idea.

People say every single unit sucks, without exception.
People also say every single unit is op, without exception.
"People's" opinion doesn't hold much value.
Ok, best line so far, LOL and I mean it.
Hell, you yourself are dictionary example of both my opening lines here, completely ignoring what 6th man brings for AGs, while praising assault tommies much more then you should, forgetting they get just more firepower, not durability, contrary to AGs.
6-men AGs also throw 6 nades in an assault.
Too much trees have obstructed your view of the forest I guess?
Where in god green earth did praise ass sections(i forget but don't cav rifles also cost 280??) and ignore the 6th man upgrade. Everybody else did. |
Well obviously the upgrade doesn't cost 180 munitions because you're not upgrading from an M1 Garand, but an Stg44 / elite MP40 on a limited amount of expensive squads.
Yeah, You can justify that for pg's but not for ST's. Their default weapon is kar98's. The mp40's are still free. ST's are less expensive than rangers. And rangers have to 180 muni for 3 bars. |
Many units units use the same weapon "type" but get more or less performance of it, depending on weather they "support" "mainline" or elite.
Ober k98 >>Gren k98>VG K98>Pf k98.
You can find the DPS of weapons if you download the COH2 tools and get a weapons report.
PF kars are better at long range the VG kars though. |
Actually, this is how utterly clueless you are on how to use MHT, especially vs emplacements.
You fire flame round, back out, then fire another flame round and done, no more emplacement.
This is why no one gives a shit about balance opinion from 8000 rank 4v4 players like you.
Wow I have 4v4 rank??? I don't often play 3v3's/4v4's.
Dude when i said that a mortar pit can 3 shot a MHT that doesn't mean i loose my MHT to mortar pits. I'm stating the fact that it can much the same way bofors shred LV's. It can't but you never put you LV's close to one. |

MOD's pls lock the thread it's going downhill |
Did you test it ? If didn't, please do it before. flame barrage is not removed, it just no longer do ADDITIONAL damage vs emplacements, so now instead of outright burn any emplacement to dust, they do consistent damage like any other flame weapons.
I'll tell you what happens in a real game now. They brace + repair cus that 10% remaining hp mean regular shot (which when braced does next to nothing) need to kill the thing. And the emplacements gets fully repaired before the cooldown for the next barrage ends. |
