It kills 1-2 guys at best.. I've had it kill 4 in green cover. The thing has a huge range and is almost 100% unavoidable due to command lag. Whereas the guy throwing the molotov has to do some huge wind up baseball-type throw, the rifle nade just... shoots. And even if it only kills 2 guys, it knocks the health off the other guys to the point that they have to retreat or die. It's not OP, but it's annoying to play against, mainly due to the lag.

After two bursts they still could throw a Molotov. That´s not how I expect a MG to perform tbh. Ahahahaha. Tried using Maxims last patch? Yeah, they worked like that. Oh sweet vengeance.

Thread: Flanking is back!!!11 Sep 2013, 13:38 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Sep 2013, 13:35 PMBob Pontes Ok, maybe I understood the patch notes wrong. But here's what I read: MG42 • Damage from 4.4 to 5 • Far accuracy from 0.1375 to 0.11 • Far cooldown from 0.8 to 0.85 • Suppression from 0.00159 to 0.00085 • Rate of fire near from 1.2 to 1.1 • Rate of fire far from 1.1 to 0.9 • Weapon horizontal traverse speed from 60 to 25 • Suppression modifier applied to suppressed targets from 0.5 to 1 In other words: there wasn't a single change to the MG42's health. Meaning that this replay was not affected at all by the new patch. Those Conscripts should have killed that MG42 on the same time, on the previous patch. Anyone care to explain if I missed something here? HMG and Mortar Teams • Now receive 25% more damage In: COH2 Gameplay

MG42's supression was mega nerfed which means now it may be possible again to setup maxims in front of an mg42 and kill it with its buffed dps. Honestly the only thing required was to reward flanking an MG42 better (which they did with the 25% increased dmg), I dont see a need why they made supression of the 42 equal to the maxim especially when mg42 does not deal as much damage and is SUPPOSED to be a supression weapon. Maxim was trash before the last patch. And I'm glad that the MG42 (presumably) isn't some kind of insta-suppression "I win" button from before. I don't really care what any of you say, I'm just excited to finally be able to enjoy this game again. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Penal Squads messege to relic 9 Sep 2013, 14:06 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Sep 2013, 13:47 PMCptEend Tbh it's not that hard to get your units away from the satchel charge at all. Provided that you play on a summer map. In deep snow or a blizzard it's fricking impossible, it even happened that I lose some penal models while retreating because they are so damn slow in the deep snow. @Peruci: I'm starting to become a fan aswell, in 1v1 I get 2 conscripts, scout car, penal + flamethrower, then get AT nades. After that guards/snipers/medics -> T4. Always keep a conscript near the scout car to counter German scout cars. Use the scout car to counter MGs. Because of the penal in the scout car I rarely need molotovs anymore, which is great because I suddenly have a lot of extra munis to spend on mines and AT nades to counter the early scout car/halftrack. This has been my recent build order as well. I was screwing around with it in 2v2, and at least it's a fun change of pace to fight the MG spam. I don't get the flamers on them though... one of the downsides of using the clown car is having to get up too close with flamers. I just leave them unupgraded and hit infantry from a range. With good micro, you can pick off units with their good DPS without having to close in (also prevents the manpower bleed of using expensive penals). When facing a unit in a building, I jump out and throw a satchel. It's at least fun when you knock the building down with a unit inside. But yeah, I also have a hard time getting everyone out of the way of the satchel. The throw range is too short. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Maxim8 Sep 2013, 20:44 PM Maxim is trash. Lack of suppression (and not enough DPS to make up for it) = units walk straight up the cone and nade it in the face. Just spend your manpower on something worth building, or pray that you can steal an MG42. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Sick/bored of MG42 -.-5 Sep 2013, 15:25 PM Why are people even comparing the Maxim and MG42? The Maxim is horrible trash. Have you even played with the thing? Units can walk DIRECTLY INTO THE CONE and nade it from the front. MG42 is like a unit sent down from God compared to the Maxim. That said, I don't care that the Maxim is trash. I can choose not to use that unit. I can't choose not to play against a 2 MG42 start each game. 3 man squad (and decrease HP), possibly tighten the cone, reduce LOS. If I walk a squad of conscripts on top of your MG from the side, it should have to retreat or die within a few seconds. Then we can talk. MGs weren't this cheesy in vCoH. In: COH2 Balance
