Thread: Most effective Commander ammunition-only call-in abilities?26 Nov 2019, 14:52 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Nov 2019, 13:54 PMShadowLinkX37 M83 cluster mines, arty flares, valiant assualt/for mother russia, stuka dive bomb, soviet vehicle repairs. Great choices! I must admit I do abuse for mother Russia often! When I know OKW is going full blob I go full Shock anti-blob! And you get the Howie in the same commander! I do Hate/love the Stuka dive bomb too. Love using and hate being on the other end of it! Shame for balance there's no smoke. In: Lobby

I left it as an open-ended question so you could explain the choice/s Like 'I use the Anti-tank Overwatch Soviet ability because its lethal and un-counterable...' for example. It would be nice to see what the top players/ well experienced people are using in 1v1...4v4 games. In: Lobby
Thread: Most effective Commander ammunition-only call-in abilities?26 Nov 2019, 10:35 AM Just wondering what peoples best bang for your buck Commander abilities are, that cost ammunition only? Just a brief reason why its so powerful too. An example from each faction for extra points too!! In: Lobby
Thread: tier 0 and tier 1 OKW rework 16 Jul 2019, 15:40 PM I really like the changing of the opening MP! This twinned with the power of the sturmpio I think is personally quite biased for no real reason. No faction can currently compete in small tight maps with stock units from 0 than the double Pio wipe squad. Its strange its lasted this long. I know on 1v1 or 2v2 you can go around this starting strat, but in 3v3 or 4v4 you basically lock down each lane with the manoeuvrability and killing power. I like the weapon change and cost change too! I do not like the double Shrek tough! This much AT on a starting unit is rather silly. One is fine! Im guessing you play lots of Axis but its nice to have a choice as Allies to go for an early light Vehicle strat. Not have the whole strat countered by one unit that can burst strike every light in the game in one shot, all for just 100 muni. JUST NO! Extra man aswell...Why? You after a unit that you start with that has same AT killing power as Ost, at a cheeper cost AAAAAND and extra man. Again NO, too much. Volks upgrades look better spreading the rec acc over 2 vet levels. As my previous above, having t0 access to AT like a Pak40 basically wipes Allies choices to go early Vehicle rush. This wouldn't be healthy for the game at t0. t1 maybe or even better add this Pak40 copy paste to a few commanders! Would be great to see OKW with a better AT gun replacement from 2CP (similar to Sov one) or t1 onwards. Great Ideas Stug In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Wishlist for 201916 Jul 2019, 15:13 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Jul 2019, 13:44 PMsluzbenik That's just RNG. KT is usually the worst thing you can bring on the field, it has very limited late game uses. Usually you see KTs getting wrecked and pulling back and being useless for another 5 minutes, if they survive. The game's RNG is such that it only rewards super cautious play, this can make for both very interesting competitive 1v1s when people are jinking so hard to avoid bad engagements, and also very dull games, as good players aren't just playing each other, they're also playing against the RNG and the chance of losing a unit. Try to change the way you play the game, get in a mindset of understanding you will win if you don't lose engagements and don't lose units. You don't need to be better than the other guy, you just have to be more cautious. Don't ever use a KT out front unless it's positively going to do more damage than it takes, etc. Totally and utterly disagree. I invested nearly the same amount of fuel as the opposition into 2 DEDICATED Anti-Tank platforms where they totally and utterly failed at there PRIMARY ROLE. If I had chosen to invest the fuel into 3 T34's dare I say I might have had a better game/result against the KT. Same with the Zis guns! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Cavalry Riflemen to T0 1 Jul 2019, 10:20 AM Agreed! OKW get Panzerfuzies T0, why can't these also be an opening option?! In: COH2 Balance

If you dont like coh's style, find something else The joke is that people seem to ask for this sort of pudding! Just has a 2v2 game, 2 Zis, 2 SU 85's didnt Penertate enough to scare a King Tiger away and rolf stomped the whole line because of it. Its so retartded just because a tank is x ammount of fuel it means its not allowed to be countered...Axis i mean more obviously! Guess what happened in the other lane... ANOTHER tiger pushing through like a summers day breeze. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Wishlist for 201928 Jun 2019, 16:02 PM A game where tanks dont have 10000000000 health and take 6,7,8 hits before blowing up. Its stupid and unrealistic. Panther is broken, 3 MG's, its speed, its turret, its pen, its armor. Why would you ever not build one? Churchill is like a slower worse Tiger. Again stupid health pool...Why? Tiger has too much health, why? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet MG bug death loop!13 Jun 2019, 20:38 PM Whats the balance in it when a volk can walk through the cone, throw a nade, sit back and watch the death loop? As if the Sov needed an even worse margain at the start of a match. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Soviet MG bug death loop!13 Jun 2019, 19:56 PM I have played this game for a few years now and every time I play this same trashy bug crops up. Fix the damn MG! Axis MG has no problems vanashing the MG to someone! Maybe the MG can get carried like the 34 or 42 on retreat, we might be able to move past 2016??!! In: COH2 Bugs
