Conscripts with a picked up MG should be worse than Obers with a picked up MG since they do not have as much training. This could fix different implementations for the same weapon in game as well as special modifiers for picked up weapons like Osttruppen have. Technically, you could further complicate this by increasing the proficiency value the longer the squad uses its weapons, but this would probably be too much for a game like CoH. I'm still advocating for just removing weapon drops entirely. Then you wouldnt need to worry about any of this. In: COH3 Central

To my knowledge the Comet has 290 armour, whereas the Panther has 260. Though the Panther does have 160 more HP than the Comet. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USA scotts (M8A1)27 Sep 2021, 20:00 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2021, 19:08 PMEsxile Update your game, Scott isn't anymore a backline unit, it has standard range and only the barrage is set to 80. 50 range isnt "standard range". And what do you mean "Only" the barrage? The barrage isn't some sort of secondary function of the unit, it's on a 55 second cooldown and is what's intended to be used as its primary attack method. Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2021, 19:07 PMProtos Angelus Scott because it has low AOE but high accuracy (you generally want scatter vs blobs for both shock effect and more dmg) and short autofire. What? High accuracy isnt a point against it in terms of fighting infantry. You want low scatter so you're actually going to be hitting the units you're aiming at In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USA scotts (M8A1)27 Sep 2021, 18:30 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2021, 18:20 PMEsxile Maybe it needs its smoke because a Jackson is never going to kill a Panther in less than 3 shots. The Scott (a backline artillery unit that take three shots from the Panther to kill) needs smoke because a Jackson can't kill the Panther in three shots? Does the Panzerwerfer, Katyusha, Stuka, etc need smoke and enough health to survive three shots from an opposing tank, just in case an enemy tank tries to dive it? We wouldn't want there to be any way for someone to kill a backline unit, after all, even if you leave it out of position. In: COH2 Balance

Just need a few more YES votes and I am outta here for good. Already deleted my Twitch account. Still have Coh2 installed to fill the voids in between my Kemper Sex Sessions™. This is basically all of my waking hours now... Kemper Sex Sessions™ Just a few more YES votes! Lets get out there and get em boys!!! I have to be honest, while I do agree that Lelic have made a lot of mistakes with CoH2, and that Matchmaking is a mess, posts like this are genuinely hurting your cause more than helping it.

Thread: Design: Small arm fire 27 Sep 2021, 12:34 PM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2021, 12:20 PMVipper "Dropping a weapon and not being able to pick it up" is what I posted. As for weapon drop mechanism Guards do not "start dropping weapons" losing 2 model, they have a chance to drop a weapon when they lose the fourth entity and that chances is lower then other squads. And the cap pick that weapon up. But I am not sure why we are talking about Guards in Coh3 since they will not exist in that game... You can't easily pick up a weapon if your squad got obliterated by a grenade, nor if it drops while they're retreating. Also: Guards have two DP28 and two PTRS, and to my knowledge all four of those are "droppable", so upon losing a third model you are chancing dropping something. Unless one of the PTRS are of the "undroppable" variety like the third Penal PTRS is. Guards were mentioned as an example of a squad more prone to dropping weapons than most, them not specifically existing in CoH3 doesn't really matter. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Design: Small arm fire 27 Sep 2021, 11:44 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2021, 11:32 AMVipper Dropping a weapon and not being able to pick it up usually happens when someone overstretches his troops. From my point of view there is little wrong being punished for it. Or when a squad is geeked by a grenade, or loses one too many models on retreat, neither of which require overextending of any sort. Squads like Guards start dropping weapons after losing only two models, too, which is hardly something that requires overextension. You're not being "punished" for bad play, you're just getting unlucky. Being punished for overextending is losing your squad, or at the very least bleeding heavily. Why must there be an added "punishment" on top of that? In: COH3 Central
Thread: USA scotts (M8A1)27 Sep 2021, 11:38 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2021, 07:08 AMT.R. Stormjäger Scott mobility should be reduced and it should lose the panzer tac smoke. Mobility is the USF factional trait, though. I'd much rather than Smoke and Durability were reduced, while keeping mobility (close to) as it is. High mobility (When the Unit is used as it is "supposed" to be) provides a potentially higher skill-cap, which would be a shame to lose. I might agree that 7 speed is a little ludicrous for the type of vehicle that it is, though. High durability in rearline units is something that should really be avoided. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Design: Small arm fire 27 Sep 2021, 11:30 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Sep 2021, 11:26 AMdonofsandiego I'm already certain that tourney players would be crying about this, like abandons. I suppose the correlation is that they're both not very good features. "Better players don't like it" really indicates the opposite of what you seem to want it to. In: COH3 Central
