Thread: Walking stuka needs some adjustments 2 Aug 2019, 10:17 AM I dislike the stuka design but hey it is what it is. I would just lower the range so it has to get closer to the action and thus be in a more risky situation. Or make the travel time greater for the rockets so its harder to hit move / retreating units. Or tie it to tech 3. Makes it so its not unlocked before you get Schwerer Panzer HQ down. The problem right now with stuka: - too easy to use - ignores fog - comes way way too early I think someone suggested making the stuka shoot like irl so the rockets would only hit in a straight line the way the stuka is facing. That would make it more of a skillshot and make it easier to dodge. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What do people think of Conscripts after the patch?2 Aug 2019, 09:33 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Aug 2019, 02:07 AMLoopDloop IMO cons are fine. They're kinda weak compared to other mainlines but they can still hold their own and they're so much cheaper than any other mainline to reinforce. I think you do need to use elite infantry with them to make them work, which is fine because they save you so much MP and soviet elites come at 2cp. The 7 man thing is great for lategame and they already get really good vet too. Making a faction rely on call in inf to have functional mainline inf is bad design in my opinion. It renders many of all sov commanders useless. Also cons are not so cheap to reinforce. - Cons: 240 mp 6 man 20 mp to reinforce. 240÷6=40 which means reinforce is 50% effective. - Volks: 250 mp 5 man 25 mp to reinforce. 250÷5=50 which means reinforce is 50% effective. A unit with bad reinforce cost would be Obers which have only 20% effective reinforce cost. So volks and cons have the same effective reinforce cost but volks is a superior unit that can perform early, mid and late game. Gets utility through natural tech progression and have good non-doc weapon upgrade. Able to reach vet 5 on top of this. I agree that the 7 man thing is actual good for lategame utility and makes merging and zerg rush for snares less risky. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: What do people think of Conscripts after the patch?1 Aug 2019, 21:52 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Aug 2019, 10:54 AMVykraznar As the title says, what are your opinions on Cons after the recent patch. Do you think they're now a viable option as opposed to going Penals? I personally find that the 7-man upgrade does very little to improve upon their performance. Even after being upgraded with a 7th man, they still lose to LMG Grens or StG Volks at all ranges. Not to mention that the upgrade comes way later at T4. I also find it a bit odd how people were complaining about their atrocious early-game performance, yet their late-game was buffed instead (and not by much either). But I digress, I wanna hear your opinions on the matter. well I guess its an decent "buff" if you dont pick a commander with cons upgrade. Their combat performance when upgraded is completely irrelevant by the time you can add the +1 meatshield. I think its nice buff to help with their merge ability but cons are still the worst non-doc main inf in the game (and no I do not consider something so silly as penals to be sov mainline). I dont know if its more impactful in 1vs1 but in 2vs2 -> 4vs4 its a decent upgrade for that 1 cons you keep around for snares. Sov inf just honestly needs a rework. Move penals to a doctrine as that fits them. Thematically it makes no sense that the soviet union outfits their traitors, criminals, cowards and "wrongthinkers" with their quite rare and expensive weapons. Penals as elite inf is the most silly thing in Coh to date. In: COH2 Balance
