Thread: panthers reload speed21 Jun 2016, 10:30 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Jun 2016, 10:21 AMsiuking666 what do you expect from a Panther then? a damage soaker? get a Tiger a TD? get a Stug a anti-inf tank? get a Pz IV the tiger is doctrinal. The panther is tech tree unit. the panther is only redundant because the Stug is already so awesome. Trying to buff the panther above the stug is just going to make the panther ridiculous.

Thread: panthers reload speed21 Jun 2016, 09:33 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Jun 2016, 09:06 AMMr.Smith I've never uploaded any videos to youtube/etc in my life ever D: It must have been something else. Precisely. The cons (in addition to everything Elchino posted): - Vehicle-based MGs suffer from accuracy/burst penalties while moving (e.g., to chase). That's about -45% dps off when you are moving - MG range = 35 (tank-gun range >= 40) - (unless you are OKW, or the Universal Carrier) Vehicle-based MGs have a very steep drop-off like carbines and weapons like that; they are good at close range, not that good at long range OST Panther DPS goes from ~33DPS at close range (up to 10) to ~10DPS at extreme-long range OKW Panther DPS goes from ~28DPS at close range to ~15DPS at extreme-long range (you almost never want to halt your panther at rifle-nade range) The pros: - If my DPS calculation is correct, the sum of all MGs on the Panther outdpses an entire vet3 grenadier squad (at their best range) when you drive it next to the enemy. most cannon suffer a 2x scatter penalty when they are moving. While the US sherman only suffer a 1.5 penalty, the comet, cromwell, and the firefly all still suffer the same 2x scatter penalty as the german panther or panzer4. the british still need learn shoot and scoot if they want to maximize mobility and accuracy.

Thread: panthers reload speed21 Jun 2016, 01:01 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Jun 2016, 00:10 AMRollo this meme has been debunked for a while Now in the humble words of James Vardy do we know how made this video btw? I am wondering if that's the okw or ost panther. edit: after looking at it a bit more closely, I think that panther is actually the ost model. you can tell from the unit portrait and help text as there's a difference between the two. I had actually thought the panther in the video was the OKW model, as those have a better mg.. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Role of the sturmpioneer in upcoming patch 20 Jun 2016, 04:58 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Jun 2016, 22:03 PMsinthe I still don't understand why Schrecks on volks aren't ok but usf still gets to keep their bazooka spam. Usf can easily field twice as much handheld at. first of all, the bazooka have trouble penetrating axis medium, unlike the schreck. secondly, the bazooka can easily be nerfed and were crap for a while. the USF doesn't really depend on them, making it easier to lower the bazooka's effectiveness without breaking the faction. it was either nerfing the schreck or replacing it.

Thread: June 21st Balance update16 Jun 2016, 22:38 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Jun 2016, 22:33 PMmiragefla False. Target tables can go against individual unit types for select weapons. Well then put them forth rather than hiding them. As for the patch, I think the Quality of Life improvements are greatly needed though. I'm pretty sure if we can't agree with my balance ideas, we can at least agree with units not being blocked by flags, having force reload and non-RNG AA. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=692260338 https://www.coh2.org/topic/51037/firesparks-balance-mod I think you've done really well in promoting your mod and in keeping up with the effort, but that's still a separate issue with the specific changes in your mod.

Thread: June 21st Balance update16 Jun 2016, 22:24 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Jun 2016, 22:22 PMVuther I too can't see much else happening unless they decided to hire miragefla on the cheap and make him do everything for patches. Personally I don't agree many of Miragefla's changes even if I respect his effort. I see a lot of flawed changes in Mirage's mod and I am worried seeing it going into the vanilla game.

Thread: June 21st Balance update16 Jun 2016, 22:17 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Jun 2016, 21:35 PMCookiezNcreem so im reading this right....the crush change didnt make it? a lot of people didn't like the crush change. and the preview test ran out of ~~steam~~ momentum. There's some stuff I don't like but the volks change make up for it. However, if this is the last ever balance patch for coh2 I am going to be pretty sad. In: COH2 Balance
