Thread: t34/85 is a bit too cheap17 Jul 2016, 21:29 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 19:42 PMferwiner I agree, its damn stupid that the p4 has 110 pen while sherman AP and cromwell have 120. Especially as even in the model you can see that p4s gun is longer barreled and thus should have better pen. I would even suggest buffing p4 to 120 pen while nerfing cromwell and sherman to 110 at the same time. the penetration on the sherman got buffed because no one ever use it into the late game. Unfortunately people still never use it into the late game because it have bad survivability. Even the british are abandoning their cromwell for the comet since the cromwell is a lot easier to kill now. ironically the t34/76 "scale" better since it's so cheap. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: su-85 needs high pop cost17 Jul 2016, 21:17 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 21:12 PMKatitof That's still a huge nerf in DPS vs meds even if you consider that. Rotation and target size do nothing about tank that isn't directly in front of you. Except rotation speed make it easier to bring target to the front and keep it there. It also help when enemy try to circle strafe you. target size is something that's always active. It allow the su-85 to dodge shot regardless of where the shot comes from. Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 09:51 AMAustralian Magic Someone could say that it was a nerf, not a buff.. Jackson and FF have 200damage (FF has 200, right?) + turret. JPIV has armor and bonus HP and camo. SU85 has only sight but that's hardly bonus since JP with vet 2 also has it without any penalties first of all, jackson, FF, and su-85 all cost more population and/or are more expensive to begin with. the su-85 also have more penetration than any of those tank destroyer. It basically combined the best trait of all those td into one package. The su-85 have better survivability than the firefly and jackson. Faster than the firefly and jpz4. More penetration than any tech unit in the game. Same accuracy as the jpz4. The focus sight is also an ability the su-85 get by default. The su-85 is at least as good as the TD in the other tree. It should cost the same population. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: su-85 needs high pop cost17 Jul 2016, 21:08 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 09:47 AMKatitof The buff was exclusively vs heavy tanks. Vs mediums it was 50% performance nerf. And it already got cost increase for that. I don't see any reason to nerf it in any way. the su-85 got a huge boost in accuracy. .40 accuracy at far range is huge. it's a 88% chance to hit a panzer4 at far range. and the su-85 also got a buff in terms of rotational rate and target size as well. the total sum of its buff outweight the nerf to rof.

Thread: Mortar pit veterancy17 Jul 2016, 20:44 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 16:40 PMelchino7 ?? Are you looking at the 10lb or the light version ? Also, i haven't seen anything on the changelog stating that (which wouldn't be strange if it was a ninja). actually you are right it's still 115 meter for the light version. In: COH2 Balance

For example, in same late Ost getting Panthers, which are 10 times better. #T-34-85instock! I said a higher price, not a nerf. being doctrinal and late game doesn't mean it can be under priced.

Thread: Mortar pit veterancy17 Jul 2016, 04:30 AM Jump back to quoted post16 Jul 2016, 23:55 PMelchino7 You are probably looking at stats.coh2 which list the barrage with veterancy applied on them. Mortar pits AA is set to 115 while normal mortars are on 80. The barrage indeed gets to 106 but only if it's vet3. actually, it used to be 115 for both barrage and auto. The autofire range got nerfed with the previous patch In: COH2 Balance
Thread: on the ptrs17 Jul 2016, 04:16 AM Jump back to quoted post16 Jul 2016, 13:04 PMTiger Baron Just a little note, the PTRS is not only used by Guards but by Cons from the Tank Hunter tactics commander as well, but buffing it would mean you would also need to buff the German and British equivalents to the same levels so it's fair to everybody SINCE they're basically the same thing, all are mostly firing a .55 cal round. Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 01:35 AMTiger Baron If you cared to read my first comment more carefully you would have already seen that I already mentioned that they have to be the same entity since they're useless on the cons. except the upgrade on the conscript do give them a different PTRS entity than the guards. they used to give the same PTRS, but was made separate since it was too powerful on the conscript.

Thread: t34/85 is a bit too cheap17 Jul 2016, 03:23 AM Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 03:16 AMCyanara Do we have a guide with up-to-date unit costs around here somewhere? I feel like the rather 'meh' Panzer IV is amusingly close in cost to the beast that is T34/85s. the guide here at coh2.org is current AFAIK. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: su-85 needs high pop cost17 Jul 2016, 02:24 AM accuracy is important. the slight decrease in rof is more than compensated by the massive increase in accuracy. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: su-85 needs high pop cost17 Jul 2016, 00:11 AM since now that the su-85 should be 14 pop since it got the buff. It's now on the level of the jpz4, jackson, and firefly and should have the pop cost to reflect that. In: COH2 Balance
