Thread: US need more now.26 Jun 2015, 10:10 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Jun 2015, 06:06 AMFiresparks the USF have grenade, bar, and bazooka upgrade, and last patch the USF player rarely need any of them. This was precisely the problem. Granted, part of the reason is the bazooka and bar are over priced, but USF can usually ignore the upgrades and just cruise straight to Sherman. The USF should really be forced to buy some type of upgrade to keep up with the wehr. Especially since the wehr are pretty dependent on their hmg42 and lmg42. The wehr delay the sherman by forcing the USF to buy the bars or grenade. This allow the wehr to buy the stug/pziv around the same time as the jackson/sherman, not after. They didn't rarely need to buy an ugrade, they just had a choice. Before I could choose to opt out of grenades and rely on just flanking. Which would free up munitions for bars, zooks. Or not get any and use the munitions on things like mines, light vehicles, or abilities like IR artillery. That's the point I wasn't forced into getting anything. You had to spend your munitions on something, but it didn't have to be any one thing. Now you are forced into getting grenades every single time, and spend a large majority of your munitions on them. Which directly takes away from the variety of the entire US faction. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: US heavy tanks confirmed ?25 Jun 2015, 23:45 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2015, 23:35 PMDonnieChan plz not, it would take away the identity of USF USF's identity has always been light, mobile, and versitile. There is no reason they can't have a lighter, more mobile, and versitile version of a heavy tank. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: US need more now.25 Jun 2015, 23:41 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2015, 23:36 PMLemonJuice i posted in another thread earlier, but i think USF requires a slightly different kind of mentality now, rather than before where you could kinda of just swarm all over the map and win because your rifles are better 1v1 than every other starting infantry. you have to take things a bit slower, capture your natural territories and play defensive in green cover instead of being aggressive and being caught in the arc of an mg42. once you have the tools to scout out enemy positions, you can start doing effective flanks/smoke pushes. going grenades is a must because it gives a ton of utility. personally i like 3x rifle > grenades > rifle > captain > stuart, since the stuart is pretty good at sniping mg teams and can survive 2 pak shots. I've been adapting and winning, but it really sucks to be so restricted to getting grenades. They are so necessary right now that they might as well just put them in the teching automatically. They are supposed to be versitile, now they are forced into an even more restrictive early game. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: US need more now.25 Jun 2015, 16:49 PM Yeah rifles are fine. Dual bar rifles can go toe to toe with any other infantry in the game and the new .50 cal allows you to compinsate for the AI if you choose not to get bars. The real problem is that you can't actually buy bars right now because most your munitions are going to need to go into using smoke and grenades. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Ostheer HMG too strong now25 Jun 2015, 10:29 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2015, 10:20 AMKatitof I always laugh at all the "like in coh1" replies. Pink shades so much that it hurts. So let me remind you of mortar smoke suppression immunity and all the "fire up" abilities. It's just like company of heroes 1! Just if you took away 5/6th of the US's starting units. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: US need more now.25 Jun 2015, 01:38 AM Funny thing is alex knows perfectly well that relic knew there would be an issue and already has something planned. The truth is that right now grenades are pretty much a necessity to stay in the game as US right now. Which means you will be delaying your tech by 25 fuel every game which is annoying and restrictive. It also drains your muni big time to be throwing out smoke and grenades every engagment, making having the muni for bars or zooks a struggle. I've been finding myself forced into investing in a muni cache every game just to make sure my infantry can stay relevant. Really wish I could atleast rely on the pack so I didn't have to constantly spend muni to counter MGs. In: COH2 Balance
