Thread: COH1 and COH2?14 Oct 2017, 23:38 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Oct 2017, 23:13 PMmiragefla Don't get me wrong, but most of the openings I've seen in most vCoH revolved around the Rifles/Jeeps and changing whether you wanted your global inf upgrades or moving into tech. WSC was literally a building solely for snipers and the odd mortar smoke considering Wehrmacht hardcountered it from just bikes and their own sniper while PE's encounter mechanized force would easily push it back. 4ES. Though I'd agree WSC start was more of a 2v2 thing, 4ES could go into rax or WSC, especially against PE. In: Lobby
Thread: A_E's Casts14 Oct 2017, 16:09 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Oct 2017, 14:08 PMA_E StrategicZoomCast #34 - CoH1 2v2 - multiple incredible tank battles - absolutely great game on Duclair Oh Duclair... A map that really needed to be in CoH2 but could never do so because of the territory mechanisms of CoH2... In: COH2 Shoutcasts
Thread: Guards Infantry - Best Use?13 Oct 2017, 17:07 PM Don't pick a doctrine for them. But if you have chosen a doctrine with Guards they are a better option than upgrading your Penals with PTRS. (Which isn't saying much since Penal PTRS aren't great.) In: Red Army Strategies
Thread: The awesomeness of using multiple bazookas13 Oct 2017, 14:42 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2017, 04:39 AMSkysTheLimit Is that how it works? I thought it was just 50mp for the single officer model I think what happens is if the model to reinforce is an officer, every queued reinforce cost is for the price of an officer. Once the officer reinforces, the next queued reinforces will be for normal riflemen. So you if you queue 4 reinforcements before the officer has reinforced, you queue up 200mp worth. If you reinforce once, wait to get the officer, then queue the rest you should avoid the higher manpower premium. It's a feature! It counterbalances the ability to bypass pop cap!

Thread: Force reload problems13 Oct 2017, 14:39 PM This may be a little kludgey, but what about a simple delay timer if nothing else works? If the reload timer is being bypassed for some reason in start actions? What may be happening is that the reload is occurring, but on the main gun, not the ability's shot. So when the ability is completed the main gun has already reloaded behind the scenes. I don't have the time right now to do it myself, but it might be worth checking the MG42 incendiary rounds since it forces a reload at the start of the ability. That may be bound by an animation firing and completing though. But that might give you a good lead towards a possible solution. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Heavy Tank killer and Comander choice for 2v2.11 Oct 2017, 20:43 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Oct 2017, 20:18 PMVipper This hardly a good designed mechanism, it actually pretty bad, if it was Penal battalion should lose their satchel charges and PTRS upgrades if Soviet T1 was destroyed for the exact same reasons. Of course you are entitled to your opinion. Actually if penals lost access to satchels and ptrs upgrades if their t1 is lost, that would be absolutely fine. Even preferable. But remember penal ptrs and satchels weren't made by relic devs. It makes sense there's discrepancies between the designs. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Soviet 2v2 loss without a teammate11 Oct 2017, 16:18 PM Or building kubelwagen after kubelwagen and Yoloing the enemy base. And if the AI is reacting to pings ive never really noticed much action... It's news to me TBH. In: Replay Reviews
Thread: Soviet 2v2 loss without a teammate11 Oct 2017, 15:35 PM This thread makes me miss the coh1 pinging system... so much cleaner AND the AI responded to your pings... In: Replay Reviews
Thread: Heavy Tank killer and Comander choice for 2v2.11 Oct 2017, 14:42 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Oct 2017, 06:07 AMBizrock Grenadier can faust from the beginning right? Yes, though it is a munitions expenditure that is hard for ostheer to make up. That faust can delay infantry healing or a flamethrower for an engagement or two. Though technically I believe the faust requires T1 to be built. So I think if in the course of the game if the t1 building is destroyed, the grens on the field lose fausts. I could be mistaken though as this is not a common occurance. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Is RNG Jebus the true messiah?10 Oct 2017, 23:03 PM It's more important that the RNG is something that players can manipulate. But if the only interaction that players have with RNG is to, well, let Jebus take the wheel, then it's likely to be a poor example of gameplay no matter how minuscule. In: COH2 Gameplay
