Thread: the Fall Balance Preview has been put on hold indefinitely.25 Aug 2017, 07:36 AM Come on guys, let's not over-react here. I for one, still enjoy the game a lot. Sure it is a bummer that they indefinitely put the fbp on hold, but the game is in my opinion not that badly balanced. Sure, team games are arty/heavy vehicle/masspits fests, but 4v4 was never going to be perfectly balanced anyways. I am yet to find another strategy game that gave me this much fun. I played SC2 quite a bit, was platinum level (sure not a pro, but not that bad either). But Coh 2 is just more fun (focuses more on positioning, flanking and combined arms) and not quite as micro intensive as SC2. Anyways, maybe they will still implement the patch sometime next year, we can hope. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Adolf Hitler Mistakes 19 Jan 2017, 14:08 PM Most of Hitler's mistakes were because of his insanity and emotion driven decisions. He should have kept bombing the airfields and radio stations in Battle of Britain, but decided to start bombing London which was an emotional decision. He was also stupid to waste so many resources on prosecuting & killing Jews and chasing them away, including Einstein! If he could have won the Battle of Britain, the situation would be different, with Britain surrendered/isolated with total Luftwaffe air superiority. Wait a bit longer before launching Barbarossa and eventually "out-tech" everyone with me262's mass produced. But then again, USA would still get nuke and probably WWII turns into nukes in Europe and Japan and even more people die. Its all just speculation, but many situations would only have prolonged the war causing more deaths. Moral of the story - war is hell. War is shit. In: The Library
Thread: Noob question: How to counter early axis MG spam?18 Jan 2017, 11:56 AM Jump back to quoted post17 Jan 2017, 15:06 PMkanelbullen So i need a mortar pit, AT gun, vickers and a squad of infantry with grenades just to take out one mg? Jeez.... The at gun and vickers are optional, they are mostly there to defend the mortar pit later in the game. I agree with what others in the thread have said also. Most important is to try and flank it. Also just keep practicing. In the beginning I lost to sim city brits EVERY game. Then I watched a tip by HelpingHans on how to counter sim city and practiced a lot and now i am very comfortable at dealing with it. Dealing with enemy mg's in buildings or on the field or mg bunkers is also just something you have to learn to deal with and then you will get better at the game. Watch pros and try the tips out and you will deal with it better in future! Royal engineers flanking an mg in building with a flamer and inf section in cover drawing fire from the mg is a good start for early game. It depends on if your problem is 5 mgs or just 1. If it is just one, ignore it and cap rest of map. If it is a LOT of mgs just try and counter with uec flamer backed by inf or mortar pit and hold out till you get aec or tank. In: Strategy Desk
Thread: Noob question: How to counter early axis MG spam?17 Jan 2017, 13:04 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jan 2017, 10:01 AMkanelbullen Any advice against mgs in buildings? They are the ones that im struggling the most about. Edit: Keep in mind that im asking hwo to counter them EARLY game. Like when i only have a couple of infantry units without upgrades yet. I play Ostheer, so here is some advice from me (things brits do to counter my mg). I usually only go for one mg because when i get 2 or 3 they often get stolen which can be game losing. ALWAYS try to steal one if you get the chance to flank it and wipe it. Mortar pit can work well, just avoid the building the MG is in and shell it to shit with the pit. Be sure to protect the mortar pit with a vickers/AT gun. Use cover. Green cover will mean the MG will not suppress and will not do too much damage. Then rush in with a second squad from a different angle and get a grenade in the building. Get an AEC perhaps or try and hold out till you get tanks. Once you see an area with an mg in a building, dont blob your squads and run into it, rather split up your squads when approaching it or just go to another part of the map, until you can properly deal with it with mortar pit or AEC or tank always supported by infantry. If its 2v2, ask your teammate to get flamer engineers or anything with flames will wreck units in a building quickly. Also, study some of the maps, you will see that some buildings can be countered, as they sometimes have some sides which have no windows. In that case you can bring an infantry squad to that side and shoot the mg without it shooting back. Remember, you can also get a vickers and put it in a building... Hope that helps In: Strategy Desk
