Thread: soviet mortar should not get flare by default6 May 2018, 07:19 AM Jump back to quoted post3 May 2018, 08:36 AMthedarkarmadillo And AGAIN i AGREE WITH YOU it needs to be pushed to vet but god forbid the soviet have a decent fucking vet ability. Flare mimes anyone? How bout every one? Oh how bout you use that kv-2 and go cap some territory. Look! Your td knows where the nearby infantry is! +1 shell to barrages. Pay munitions for a SLIGHTLY aimes but shorter katy barrage! Only the redone abilities are anything more than actual garbage.... there's still the precision strike. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: British mortar pit6 May 2018, 07:09 AM Jump back to quoted post5 May 2018, 17:11 PMDerKuhlmann I think mortar pit is fine. It forces the enemy to get indirect fire, which means they lack infantry, so you can just rush them. what Okw and ost player wouldn't get at least one of their excellent mortar and leig?

Thread: Why must USF be so hard to play/suck so hard?6 May 2018, 07:07 AM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2018, 06:53 AMShadowLinkX37 what? nerfing units is not a faction rework. that a convenient loophole. then wehr and okw need the nerf hammer for their late game as well. (ps, Firefly is way overpriced for its performance, and it's getting a pop nerf as well) In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Mgs late game6 May 2018, 07:05 AM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2018, 06:53 AMStein Grenadier Is it similar to how allied-captured Raks can't stealth? no, Allied solider just can't stealth. Just about every okw soldier have innate ability to stealth. It's missing on most American and british soldier. Maybe the soviet have it since they have the cloaked atg. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: small tech change to OKW to fix their healing problem6 May 2018, 06:59 AM Jump back to quoted post5 May 2018, 11:11 AMferwiner I made a small ranking of faction healing in the game. The factions are shown in the order from best healing (ukf) to worst (sov). I based the ranking place both on the traits in the table, cost of available healing options and some additional features that were hard to place in the table like for example: 1. Usf ambulance can only heal when stationary (so it is under stationary category) but it can run or advance when needed. 2. Okw has free and micro less forward healing on their most used infantry squads with vet. And so on. Cost was the most important factor though, that is why ostheer is higher ranked than usf and ukf is higher ranked than okw. I hope this will remind everybody that complains about okw healing just how amazing it is. Mind that okw healing is also going to be even better next patch, as patch team decided they are unable to fix the abusable medic crate bug, so they will make the behaviour that is currently only aviable via abuse the standard. the issue is more to do with how OKW is locked into medical building , thus shuttering out Luchs+puma (unless you use the medical pack). Is the luch + puma really that powerful to warrant needing to use munition just to heal? Since the puma is an anti-tank unit, the real question is the Luch really good enough of a shock unit to warrant the gap in healing. The luch would need to be an amazing shock unit to beat the combo of leig + flak HT + healing. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why must USF be so hard to play/suck so hard?6 May 2018, 06:49 AM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2018, 06:47 AMShadowLinkX37 Well unless they plan to entirely rework factions, they'll break something for some gamemode. all the recent patch does a pretty good job at hammering british late game, so reworking allies faction is not possible unless it's to completely neuter their strength?

Thread: Mgs late game6 May 2018, 06:48 AM Jump back to quoted post5 May 2018, 16:18 PMelchino7 You go from this hmg_team_mg42_mp.txt > hmg_team_mg42_vet3_mp.txt Although i have a fear some bug related issues might arise when the unit get's wiped and the weapon recrewed if it was done on this way. it's a pretty complicated script, and prone to error. ironically the mg42 probably have the least problem remaining useful in the late game. It's usually the allies mg having problem against the long range oriented Axis. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why must USF be so hard to play/suck so hard?6 May 2018, 06:44 AM Jump back to quoted post5 May 2018, 17:25 PMShadowLinkX37 Hope this is just a rage post, as USF is pretty potent in 1v1. this is narrowing the scope just to win the argument. USF weak in 2v2+ "it's okay they are still good in 1v1" Ukf weak in 1v1 "it's okay they are still good in 2v2" In: COH2 Balance
Thread: small tech change to OKW to fix their healing problem5 May 2018, 20:52 PM Jump back to quoted post4 May 2018, 04:42 AMKatitof All other factions need to pay something in addition to tech to get healing, no freebies, OKW is not nor should be excluded in any way. That is the whole point of having them as an upgrade. And why the tech itself should be cheaper with a unit locked additionally? There is no reason for that. Jump back to quoted post4 May 2018, 20:20 PMStein Grenadier Every faction has to pay for their healing. Sov has to pay 250MP Ost has to pay 150MP + 60MU USF has to pay 237MP + 7FU UKF has to pay 60MU OKW has to pay (100MP + 15FU) + (200MP + 25FU) + (100MP + 15FU) The total is 400MP + 50FU. As expensive as that sounds, it's a tech building you can shove somewhere on the map that comes with medics. Add 300MP in, and you can cut the time needed for your troops to return to the frontline unless you park it inside your base- In which case, you won't need to pay 300MP. Or, if it's too rich for your blood, you could just spend munis to heal 3 squads on the go. firstly, there's a big difference in only having 1 medic compared to 3 medic. It's not like the AOE heal for the USF and UKF where the number of entites do not matter. medic heals like the okw, wehr, and sov require the medic entities to heal wound soldier one by one. Anyone who ever have to share healing with a team mate will note that You can easily overwhelm the three medics with wounded. and it's not really "free" it's still packaged into the cost of the medical truck + the unpacked truck. If the flak ht get locked behind the theoretical improved healing upgrade, the okw will just be getting the mg + leig + 1 medic with the base medical truck. This would make medical truck + light vehicle support more attractive as an option. If you just go pure medical truck nothing would really change. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: small tech change to OKW to fix their healing problem4 May 2018, 04:20 AM Provide the medical truck with 1 medic by default, and the medical upgrade will increase the number of medic to 3 . This provide the okw with a weak healing that can still top up infantry hp, but they will still need to get the upgrade as fighting become more intense. there's also a further possible change. shift the cost of the medical building to the medic upgrade, and lock the flak halftruck behind the upgrade. This mean the okw can mix medical + mechanical for weak healing and luchs, or just go for the flak truck + full heal. In: COH2 Balance
