Ah so no tech grenades are "free" now? Great, then shock trooper grenades are free too? Good! If you thought about it for just one second, you might have found out that the "free grenades" was meant as "no tech". I assume that was too much to ask from you. Better start trolling new forum members and then make lopsided comparisons. Great stuff mate. I'll remind you of that next time you complain about the CoH2 player base being too small. Jump back to quoted post16 Aug 2019, 16:38 PMZugZug Seriously, how do you beat this as USF? They tear up rifles, they run straight through HMGs, they get free grenades. I can't see a way to beat a half competent Ost player that uses them. Alright, on a serious note: I've also had problems as USF against this tactic. not sure what the best thing to do is. AA Halftrack maybe if you make it that far probably. Haven't tried an early BAR upgrade yet, could be a decent idea as well. Mortar or other indirect won't help you much. MGs only in small corridors. And I think you mostly have to ignore the CQC parts of the map until the mid game. USF is a tough one against Assault Grenadiere, but maybe the balancing of the next patch might change a bit here.

Thread: Obersoldaten upgrade17 Aug 2019, 10:43 AM Not sure about the exact stats, but I think the common agreement is that StGs -> short range, LMG -> long range. In: Strategy Desk
Thread: Panzer Tactician17 Aug 2019, 10:41 AM Fausts are avaiable to every main line Axis infantry and almost the only way to deal with an early UC. Button is at mid-late game ability on a single, non spammable doctrin unit to keep tanks in place for your TDs and AT guns to deal damage. If we really start to balance a stock ability and stock units around single abilities of doctrinal units - oh boy, we're in for trouble. It's way easier to balance the doctrinal ability accordingly. Making a few second delay on the smoke would go a long way. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Panzer Tactician15 Aug 2019, 22:02 PM The effectiveness of Panzer tactician heavily depends on the skill and micro level. In lower rank play, it's a "My tank will survive" buttons. In mid and high skill play, people will start to target the ground. Although I don't like to nerf OST much in it's current state, the ability could do with a small delay of 1-2 seconds, since it's instant activation will cause all enemy units to target other squads. With a small delay, OST players would need to think ahead a little bit. Another option would be to make it a targetable smoke shell like the Cromwell. But that would be a hufe nerf, so I would not like to go down that route. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: USA September patch discussion15 Aug 2019, 21:00 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Aug 2019, 17:06 PMSander93 SEPTEMBER 2019 PATCH PREVIEW - Version 1.1 Changes USF Changes to both of the following units were discussed before release. The team has decided to include for testing after initial feedback. Riflemen We think Riflemen are solid infantry that scale very well, but we would like to put more emphasis on the engagement range dynamics between them and long range Axis squads. Their near range (and thereby their near DPS) will be slightly increased, which will naturally slightly increase their DPS up to range 16 - Near range from 3 to 6 (Chart amended from https://coh2db.com/stats/ ) Rear Echelon Troops To make Rear Echelon Troops carbines perform more consistently, as currently they are very RNG dependent with their low accuracy but high rate of fire and damage, their accuracy has been increased. In return their damage per bullet will be reduced, to keep the same total DPS as now - Damage from 10 to 8 - Accuracy from 0.403/0.288/0.23 to 0.51/0.3456/0.276 Could this please be incorporated into the opening thread and the general patch overview thread? Otherwise it's hard to keep track of the current state of the patch. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Remove coh2 in-game chat15 Aug 2019, 20:05 PM Report and mute button would be nice. No idea why Relic did not give it to us from the get go. But I think we'll never get it, as there is no report system in place that would direct the reports from the game to the officials and CoH2 is too old now. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Need help to understand the patch note15 Aug 2019, 12:30 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Aug 2019, 11:47 AMinfernoVenom Thanks for you answer, I appreciate it. From 0 to 4 meter it seems close range for me. How come 0 Meter is determined as near range and 4 meter is far? If Negative RA makes the unit harder to get by other units. Then doesn't it more negative RA add more damage resistance to my unit? How come less negative add more resistance. Sorry I'm little confused. I mean -29 is less negative and -90 more negative. You're very welcome. "near", "mid" and "far" are just names for the reference points. It has nothing to do with general discussions about "close range combat" etc. It just means that at this distance, the damage has to drop off to a certain percentage. For the new Tiger, the damage will drop off linearly between 0 and 1 meter from 75% to 25%, and then also linearly to 12,5% at a distance of 4 meters. No damage will be done beyong that. 0 meter is the "near" reference point, 1 is "mid", 4 is "far", nothing special to it. I think you're getting confused about the modifier itself and then the veterancy bonus. RA is the modifier for hit chance. Lower is better. A vet bonus of -20% means that the modifier itself is modified with 0,8. So it lowers the RA which makes the squad harder to hit, therefore more beefy. Example: A unit with 0,9 base RA gets a vet bonus of "-20% received accuracy". This means it's new RA is 0,9*0,8 = 0,72. In: COH2 Balance
