Thread: The Ostheer Problem27 Nov 2013, 06:08 AM The grens are there to either faust it if the t70 gets close or buy your At time to position and shoot. It's going to take a while for the t70 to kill all 7 soldiers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The Ostheer Problem27 Nov 2013, 05:23 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2013, 04:29 AMblitz1337 We all know u don't want your beloved winning unit to get touched, but look at what u wrote. Fast p4 tech, will only be on the field a few minutes after the t70 unless germans have had map control, teller mines- sometimes hard to put down where u want them and also require the t70 to go in the right spot. ( You don't see PG's and think hmm i need a mine right there to counter them.) Shreks in a halftrack is quite expensive and requires a commander, it will only help against 1 t70 not multiple. Dbl paks... Thats a big investmentand there will not be much to support. 2 shreks squads??? serious? MG with Ap rounds is avoidable. Higher skill level.... righto, giving yourself some credit? Well, for a soviet to rush out a T-70 is exactly the fuel cost it takes for the german player to get a Stug out if he skipped T2. And this occurs only if a soviet player completely rushes the t70. So essentially no building/having molotovs, AT nades. As well they have to build Tier 1 which is significantly inferior to the Ossim Possum Tier 2 bulding. Either way the T-70 and ostwind are receiving a scatter nerf, so it's going to have a harder time kiting. As for Teller Mines, it depends on the map, if it's on seimosky then its pretty damn reliable, while ferma it's unreliable. Shreck Pgrens can either be your savior, or just can just mess up and miss. This is where if you know if the RNG GOD OF WAR is on your side. Also when countering it with a pak, people need to have a gren by it so when it tries to flank it or comming close. You'll faust its ass which will buy your pak some more time to position it and kill it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The Ostheer Problem27 Nov 2013, 04:55 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2013, 04:17 AMTurtle Paks being able to cloak at vet 0 or even vet 1 would be too much. Soviet armor mostly cannot take a punch despite being able to put up a slight fight. Cloaking paks on top of generally superior German anti-tank ability would be too much just to try and deal with the T-70. I really disagree with a single shrek upgrade. It makes Pgrens too good overall at killing both vehicles and infantry. If PGrens ever got the ability to upgrade 1 shrek, they'd have to do something where they start with only 2 assault rifles (also increase AR effectiveness into mid range) and 2 rifles, and you have to choose between 2 more ARs or 1 Shrek. Problem with tank traps, and defenses overall is that it promotes a very fixed play that's never jived well with CoH overall. With TTs being locked to commander choice, you can be pretty defensive, but you lose out on more offensive abilities. Sadly, at the time that the multiplayer is representing, Germany had switched away from using AT rifles entirely. Nailed it. I agree with you. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: MG 42 The Most Useless Unit In The Game27 Nov 2013, 03:00 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2013, 02:21 AMsluzbenik Don't worry (I'm in beta). There are far bigger issues. Brace Yourselves! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: MG 42 The Most Useless Unit In The Game27 Nov 2013, 02:17 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Nov 2013, 02:07 AMOZtheWiZARD MG-42 suffers from its big arc of fire. It can't suppress quicker because it will again be close to the silliness of early CoH2 balance. I still find the unit useful and don't have games without it. Majority of German players don't use this unit in a correct way though and I suspect that this is the case with opening post. You have to think of this unit as of something that will come a bit later to the skirmish and it will nail already engaged enemy units and seal their fate. To tell the long story short always keep it behind your lines it's a defensive unit and an offensive use will get punished. It's not a Maxim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4urM3QSWwf0 In: COH2 Balance

Thread: How's the game now?21 Nov 2013, 05:51 AM Agrens are balanced now, very easy to deal with. They fixed construction time of T1 and T2 for soviets, so you can actually use scout cars, penals, and support weapons very early. They completely fixed veterancy now also. Luftwaffe Doctrine and Partisan Doctrine are fine, only elite and industry are broken. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: What can we do to Show relic that this is the wrong way ??20 Nov 2013, 04:28 AM Disclaimer I'm not in the beta, I'm saying what I saw in the streams or what the staff members officially said. What I say here doesn't go against the N.D.A. what so ever. The problem with the beta is that it isn't a good test for commanders, perhaps for overall balance, but not commander balance. This is because the beta testers have access to other new commanders, which prevents them serious testing vanilla commanders vs New Payed Doctrines. This is why the new doctrines are so effective against the vanilla doctrines. It's not only that but the dev team just constantly add new gimmicky units or abilities that just ruins some aspects of the game. Buying vet was a horrible idea, soviet industry possesing many features into one ability was a awful idea (perhaps just give the extra vehicle speed deployment, don't give 3 abilities into one), and tiger ace which needs to be placed at CP 8 since it should be a last resort or that breakthrough tank like the Tiger Ace from vCoh days before it was changed into king tiger. Instead they should add abilities similar to Zeal, for the fatherland, or just propaganda. All of these abilities had one function for certain type of units. Why can't they develop simple abilities but useful in situations. You can argue that, "For the Motherland" had that approach, but the major flaw was that it costed 150 munitions before the patch and it's downsides outweighed it's advantages unless your playing a winter map. These abilities need to be simple, not expensive and primary used for early game usage. Also, Petitions don't do anything, I mean absolutely nothing. The only way to halt the p2w doctrines is to not buy them. Yes they may seem tempting and OP at first, but they do that to attract impulsive buyers. Sega obviously is forcing Relic to do this, they pull off the same crap with the Total War series. Sega requires their customers to pay for gore in Rome 2, that's how ridiculous Sega is. Also these doctrines and Theater of Wars are overpriced as well. The individual theater of war costs 10 bucks for 6 missions. That's 1/6th of the god damn full retail price, yet idiots are buying this. These missions should cost 5 bucks total at most. If you buy the 4 commanders with the DLC missions it will cost you 26 bucks, even though opposing fronts, a true expansion, came with 2 campaigns that had a good story, cut-scenes, and they lasted from 3-4 hours each, and 2 new factions that came with 6 doctrines. Vote with your wallet, boycott these commanders if you want to see a change. Maybe it will open Sega's eyes, and then they may realize that they don't want to suffer the same fate as Capcom.
