I can't say much for whermacht doctrines since there are so many. But I can't think of a whermacht commander ability that is legitimately bad or not useful in some way. Also you should feel bad for trying to derail the thread with a post that's not even really relevant. No one is talking about wher. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Armor Company is Highly Overrated3 May 2016, 06:36 AM Jump back to quoted post3 May 2016, 06:21 AMLuGer33 it makes no sense to remove it from the M10 because it's good / better at it than everything else That's actually a good reason TO remove it. I don't mind on the cromwell and panther because these are somewhat generalist vihicles, but also more importantly because it's much cheaper. Players are much more likely to risk the M10 because they know they can get another easier makes it much more prevelant. The fact that it's the best at it only makes that worse. Units shouldn't be able to act outside their roles so drematically. Let's be honest, if a ostwind could destroy a sherman by doing a little donut, I think people would be pretty pissed. And it's not like it's just a one off feature. It's common tactic used by any good player player using the commander. Hell I do it all the time! Doesn't make it right. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Armor Company is Highly Overrated3 May 2016, 06:08 AM Armor company pisses me off!!! Why? Because without a doubt it is the one of the worst commanders in the game. But the community seems to ignore it heavily. Some even tout it as one of the best doctrines. And why is that? Because M10 can crush... So lets break it down: Advanced Vehicle Crews Basically an empty slot and the 2 year holder of worst commander ability award. Because who doesn't want to spend 90 muni on a squad with 0 combat vet and abilities. And don't give that shit about switching them out with RE. If that's what Relic wanted they would have just given it to REs and avoided the whole redundancy of switching them. Assault engineers Sure these guys are good opening units, but even early on they are sort of mediocre. But that's not so bad, they also give you access to mines and flamethrowers, which is great. Unfortunately they are a 4 men close combat squad with little to no defensive scaling they won't last. They simply can't do their job wothout getting killed as the game progresses and you'll be lucky if they survive the mid game, let alone the late game. 280mm Artillery Barrage Not the worst call-in strike, but let's be honest, no one is picking this commander for this ability. Highly erratic results and highly expensive. Perhaps the only ability I've seen cause the person using it to lose the game. 105mm Sherman Because who doesn't want to spend more for a sherman that can kill infantry a tiny bit better then a regular sherman... maybe. Sure it has a bit better health and armor but schreks still seem to pen it rather reliably. One things for sure it ain't no KV-8 and given it's role and price, I kind of expect it to be. But you can always get one if you want a Anti-infantry tank that spends more time running from schrek blobs then killing it. M10 Wolverine Ah, the great M10! Who doesn't love it! A great flanking tank destroyer and it's cheap enough to be spammed in great numbers to overwhelm your enemies. Good thing it's easily countered by infantry. Oh wait.. that's right it can't. Gren going to snare you? Crush. Schreks going to kill you? Crush. Because what's better then a hard AT unit that can kill infantry thanks to a silly mechanic. I mean that's the way it was in vCOH and vCOH was perfect and never did anything wrong What should be done? Remove crush from the M10. It's a tank destroyer and a cheap one at that. Players shouldn't be able to just suddenly turn it into one of the best infantry killers just because they are good enough to make it do a little dance. Put the 105 into the majors building. We've already determined that using doctrines to skip out on teching is already a bad idea. I have no idea why Relic decided that armor company should be the exception. Give the 105 more range, armor, or faster rof. Something so that's it's actually better at what it does then it's cheaper multi-role brother. Change assualt engis vet 2 to give them an extra man (no not vet 3 you goobs they'll be dead by then) Do anything to Advanced Vehicle crews! Literally anything is better then what it is right now! Just stop ignoring it! Please! Do what needs to be done. Expose armor company for the shitty gimmick commander it is, and then fix it! In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Bofors3 May 2016, 05:09 AM Jump back to quoted post2 May 2016, 21:42 PMAlphrum if anything it should at least have a price increase? i think it currently costs 280 MP/30 fuel? (correct me if im wrong) and is way to cost efficient for what it does. By the time you waste so much manpower, munitions and fuel to take it out another one comes up instantly too lol This is about the only post on this thread worth anything. A manpower increase might be good and prevent spamming multiple bofors and making bofor/pit combos a bit harder. Almost every other post involves nerfing it into near uselessness. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Balance Preview Mod - Your Thoughts After Using It29 Apr 2016, 04:40 AM Jump back to quoted post29 Apr 2016, 04:10 AMDullahan I think my point is more that there's a reason that USF pays for smoke. Giving them a mortar gives them a cheap and effective tool for dealing with their counters in the early game, and in the mid game munitions limited how frequently USF could use smoke to set up attacks with units like the Sherman or M8A1. It also discourages the grenade upgrade, because mortar is marginally more expensive in terms of manpower yet doesn't cost a minute of fuel and will do the job better. You are acting like there is a mortar added into current US builds. The truth is that it is a totally different build where a mortar replaces a rifle squad. All that changes is that USF has more options to approach the a MG heavy situation. And both options have their benefits and faults. The mortar is in no way superior to grenades like you are making it out to be. In: Lobby
