As an example for you as you can use it with Jager infantry doctrine. And yes I've over 2000 hours and ive been rank one several times. What about you? rank 1000, 2000? Get off this thread. You should really get off your high horse, mate. To your point: I don't see a huge issue. The camo units are pretty balanced at the moment. There's not much reason to change that mechanic. Snipers are a topic for themselves, quite a few would like to get rid of them completely. The only problem with camo that I see are late stage team games, where yellow cover is basically everywhere due to arty. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: September Balance Patch preview [SPBP] - general discussion23 Aug 2019, 21:12 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 21:02 PMStug life ur logic is the minus starting fuel is not changing the cost of fuel of the tech right ? then bringing it up to other faction lvl should do nothing by ur logic right ? if the minus 10 fuel is irrelevant why have it ? You're absolutely misinterpreting what he says. There is not much reason to add truck cost and the less starting fuel. What counts is the fuel you need to gain until you can tech up to a certain unit, in our case an AT gun. Now, what's the difference there between the factions? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: September Balance Patch preview [SPBP] - general discussion23 Aug 2019, 20:45 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 20:41 PMStug life people always forget that OKW starts with -15 fuel (soon to be -10) Yes, but they usually also had a stronger opening which basically negated this disadvantage as they are usually able to hold more territory points in the first 5 min than their opponent. We still could buff med base by giving it the AT gun. EDIT: And what sky said. OKW can tech up at a very similar timing as USF In: COH2 Balance
Thread: September Balance Patch preview [SPBP] - general discussion23 Aug 2019, 20:40 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 20:31 PMStug life then what about a clone of the zis ? make it come after first truck call in so it's even more expensive than zis tech (25 fuel vs 10) or a clone of the usf after tier truck call in ? (always 25 fuel, a bit cheaper than usf but no free officer) or a clone of the ukf one always after first truck call in ? Trucks cost 15 fuel. But apart from that, it doesn't make a big difference at that point. But why not tie it to the Kampfgruppen HQ? USF stats, Kampfgruppen HQ. So OKW has an AT option in both T1 and T2, would also buff the med base. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Where do you report team killers again?23 Aug 2019, 20:28 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 20:06 PMDerKuhlmann I have a question. If a teammate wastes all his units and goes afk. Is it okay to destroy his base? Why would you do that? If you want the game to be over either drop or just tell the enemy that they shall destroy your base buildings and stop fighting. In: Lobby
Thread: USF AT grenades23 Aug 2019, 17:30 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 17:14 PMthedarkarmadillo the molitov of snares... Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 17:14 PMGrumpy The long wait does lead to some strange animations - like the AT nade appearing as a guided missile that hits at a really long distance, and often not hitting until the target tank has backed up enough that it doesn't have to worry about AT guns. I think the problem also amplifies itself. The long animation means that the model shooting the AT rifle grenade is more likely to get killed in the meantime, which restarts the animation. The P4 does have decent AI capability, especially with the pintle MG, so killing 2-3 models of a 5 man Riflemen squad is not that unlikely if there is a little bit infantry support. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Sight flares vs Recon planes23 Aug 2019, 17:25 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 17:16 PMVipper That information is inaccurate: PM-42 82mm Mortar The PM-42 Mortar will now have the ‘Flare’ ability at Vet 0 to provide vital scouting information and to give the Soviet mortar a more utility oriented role when it is deployed. Flare ability no longer requires veterancy 1 Veterancy 1 reduces Flare recharge by 25% Thanks for the correction. I probably mixed it up with the 120mm mortar, which (if I'm not wrong here too) still requires vet1 to flare. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF AT grenades23 Aug 2019, 17:04 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 16:55 PMMakiesKurisu The problem is not the crit rate. AT rifle grenades takes years to launch, (OKW Fusilers also suffered), and most Axis tanks get blitz after vet1 making the situation even worse. So in many cases, when this grenades hit the tank and crit the engine, that tank may well have drived miles away and leave the dead zone. However, I don't think its a big issue because Jackson is the most efficient mobile TD. +1 on this. Riflemen AT nade could use an animation speed buff. I regularly check if the animation has bugged out or if it is still running after activating it. Just two days ago I tried to snare a standing P4 when my Rifles where really next to the tank. The P4 was almost in the fog of war when it got snared. It also puts your Rifles at risk since they need to stand still for so long In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The Leaver Problem23 Aug 2019, 16:53 PM 2V2 with a team mate is very stable apart from an occasional bugsplat. Community management would be nice, at leasta report system should have been implemented years ago. But we did not get that. And we also won't. I highly doubt that Relic will put any more effort into this game than maintaining servers for the community. CoH2 is just too old now In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Sight flares vs Recon planes23 Aug 2019, 16:47 PM I agree on OKW and UKF flares, but throwing the SOV flare in there too is a bit far fetched. It requires a vet 1 mortar in range, so it can only be deployed on the front line and you can counter the strategy by wiping the mortar with pushing it or artillery. It also is a bit more micro intensive. OKW and UKF flare is just a two-click ability and you see what you want to see. Nothing else involved. EDIT: 81mm SOV mortar (standard version) does not require vet to flare, 120mm mortar does need vet 1 In: COH2 Balance
