Thread: This patch killed Katyusha and Werfer5 Jun 2014, 03:12 AM on map arty needs a slight range decrease with a huge durability increase. they need to stop getting 1 shotted by recon and bombing runs. on this note, the pak43 too. apart from that, their pricing is fine. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Teching and call ins. 5 Jun 2014, 03:04 AM i agree with just pushing the cp back. having to tech for tanks will make comebacks much harder especially since u will need additional fuel for t3/t4 building, then getting the unit which costs fuel too. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: IS25 Jun 2014, 02:57 AM same here, playing loads of is2 nowadays. exactly as you said, they just need a good hp increase and other softer boosts like speed increase and turret rotation to help them their inherent style of play, which is usually to shoot and scoot or flanking.

Thread: Current balance for both faction3 Jun 2014, 07:08 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Jun 2014, 06:45 AMHighfiveeeee Just talking about me, but is everyone "abusing" now? When I'm playing 2 v 2 with my mate, we try to do things as tactical as possible. Double cap, good positioning and so on. And the thing is that this does absolutely not matter. Sure we are far from top tier (about rank 1.000) but I always ask myself "Why play like this when your enemies ALWAYS "abuse" the game". Abusing may be the wrong word but I find it strange that there are strats that make no sense but work. For example at the moment all the Russian player has to do is walk close to your grens. If the grens are not in absolute green cover they lose. Same thing with M3. Russian: Just place that car(s) right here -> profit. Sure you can say "Put your grens in green cover". But what shall I do for example at Minsk where everything is yellow cover but rather nothing is green? And in addition if you find green cover you will see the cons throwing a sixpack of molotovs in your direction before you can even say 'Fuck'. Sorry for the long text but what disturbs me the most is that the game forces blobbing at the moment. Cons and Grens are too equal but Cons won't die while your Grens absolutely will. A+move with grens. not in a sarcastic manner, but please A move with them. not only they will stop to engage and provide all that accuracy bonuses in shooting while stationary, they also engage at their extreme range, which is at their optimal range. always do that and cons will have difficulty closing in with all that fire, they will lose models. also makes it far more easier to see cons moving up to throw molotovs and dodge accordingly. the thing with mid level players using grens is that they keep them constantly on the move to seek better cover and stuff. its not a bad idea but FOTM is a bitch, so stop them to shoot.

Thread: I am feeling that Ostheers are OP31 May 2014, 14:28 PM agreed with the conscripts. they are fine early game though. it is when LMG or G43 upgrades, they are simply outclassed. without LMG, its fairly simple to land a rifle nade and force a retreat. the only way that worked for me is getting snipers to whittle them down while conscripts provide whatever little support fire they can. if not for ISU152 and snipers, it would be alot tougher for soviets to beat germans, yet at the same time it would be more fun. to deal with tigers, there are more counters than just su85. t34/85 rushes works very well. AT guns penetrate pretty reliably from the front. the thing is, you need to distract or disable it. there's always mines or button to do just that, so use them. overconfidence comes hand in hand with tigers, so abuse those mines, get a engine destroyed critical, then send everything to take it down. i wont say ostheer is OP, both sides have their own shit to deal with. soviets have to deal with elefants, grenadiers and support teams superiority. germans has to deal with maxim spam, snipers, ISU-152.

Thread: Minor german issues. 28 May 2014, 12:25 PM he is probably bitter that he is losing games because he cannot use panthers the way he did before and wipe the floor with it. the nerf to call in tanks would be great, that or a huge bump in cp required. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Minor german issues. 28 May 2014, 08:05 AM Jump back to quoted post28 May 2014, 06:24 AM__deleted__ While I agree to the fact that you should be carefull with your units and not use them in mindless attacks, I am sick and tired of people saying units "are not supposed to be used" like this. Then please tell us, how should we use the Panther? If I'm paying a fortune on a tank, I expect from it to perform accordingly. Take into calculation the phases, the T buildings. Otherwise I will not build it at all and build more of something cheaper. Understand the logic? Ringing a bell? Why should I pay such a big amount of manpower and fuel for a tank that 70% of its battle time is runing and dodging enemy fire in order not to be killed in amatter of seconds? Because all good players will try to kite it at the first received hit. I can agree to people that say it should remain like this but lower production costs. And I say, lower it consistently or Panther will not be seen anymore on the battlefield. There allready are several units that are underused or not used at all. killed in matter of seconds from what? AT guns? t34s? it only happens if you run into soviet lines head first without weakening their lines 1st or hitting a mine or 2 and losing ur engine. cant blame anyone for that when a swarm of t34s comes and hunt ur weakened panthers down. stop initiating fights with panthers. its no longer the tank it used to be when they could mess up soviet lines just by charging in. if you rush panthers into the straight into enemy lines, expect them to be taken out. instead chip away at their defenses with indirect fire and gain advantage in map control with ur superior mobility. t34s have no chance against panthers, so expect AT guns and bring along infantry to deal with them. then settle ur paks elsewhere to guard against smart players who relocate their t34s to another side of the map away from ur panthers. there's a problem with teching cost and CP gain, no doubt about that. but there's none with the unit itself. cost does not justify a unit being OP. look at what the old tiger ace was, stupidly tanky with 2000hp, 320dmg and with a whole bunch of abilities. expensive? yes. balanced? not in any sense of the word. i didnt mention isu152 beating it because its clearly an OP unit, needs to go out of the game together with the elefant.
