Thread: Honest opinions about Balance - Soviet adv7 May 2014, 16:04 PM Jump back to quoted post7 May 2014, 15:44 PMBrick Top I suppose its the state of call in tanks at the moment, by going no tier, you often have 300+ fuel stored ready to spam. Since the patch I always go Tiger/ Elefant combo in 2v2 as Germans. Usually I´ll mix in a StuG or two on the way to the CPs. The two times I did build T4 the Panther was obliterated by Su-85s it couldn´t reach or Sherman-spam. With a Panther that - has less range than the Russian tank hunter, - less health than pre patch, - less armor bonuses than other tanks at vet 2, - is now more expensive, - can´t blitz and a nerfed Panzerwerfer there is no reason any longer to go T4 as Germans. You are better off with Tigers and Elefants late game. In all honesty German T4 is a joke. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poor MG42 vs Rich MaxPin!6 May 2014, 18:07 PM Fully agree with OP. The Maxim suppresses with one burst. The MG42 suppresses with two/ three bursts. Conscripts can run through the 42s arc at max range. Grenadiers can´t run through the Maxims arc at max range. With the latest changes to Grenadier and Panzergrenadier armor the suppression is so much more needed on the MG42 now. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Bug: Panzerfaust6 May 2014, 09:54 AM Hi, lately my mate and me are experiencing some problems with the Panzerfaust. This didn´t occur in previous versions as far as I can remember: When choosing the Panzerfaust to fire (within range) the model grabs it´s Panzerfaust (that little tube animation) but in the end no shot is fired. This happens on a regular basis. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Honest opinions about Balance - Soviet adv4 May 2014, 18:02 PM I think the Russians have a huge advantage early game since Grenadiers die like flies. The armor nerf to 1 for the Grenadiers would be okay, if at least the MG42-team was useful in supressing units. 1) Right now I see conscripts running up to it and getting suppressed only after the third volley. Meanwhile the Maxims pin with one burst. 2) Another unit that does underperform - with 2/3rd the survivability of a Conscript - (Panzergrenadier) is not worth 340 mp. Point. You are giving away free Schrecks to the enemy right now. Those are my two main issues this patch. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: ISU-1524 May 2014, 11:25 AM Jump back to quoted post4 May 2014, 10:41 AMUnshavenbackman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkNNpe5UO1M This shoutcast shows just how justified this thread is. You are missing the point. Germans have to go Elefant to not lose. All I saw in that video were horribly microed T-34/85s rushing over the river and getting stuck. And god forbid that the Elefant beats the ISU! The ISU only has superb anti infantry capabilities while also being good versus armor, while the Elefant only excels at anti-tank, guess who should win. The problem is if the Germans don´t go for Elefant, they usually have lost. And that´s super boring. There are people who play for fun, not to win. And going Elefant every game isn´t fun.

Thread: ridiculous russian buff3 May 2014, 20:05 PM Jump back to quoted post3 May 2014, 20:01 PMKronosaur0s I miss when german infantry had 1.5 armor, to simulate better quality troops and training :/ In the latest patch I don´t build Panzergrenadiers any longer. They never pay off. They are definitely not worth 340 mp. I´m usually better off with getting MG42s and Paks as my main army. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: How do you feel about Grenspam since April 24th patch?2 May 2014, 23:15 PM Jump back to quoted post2 May 2014, 22:35 PMdasheepeh The problem i have with Gren spam is that mindlessly upgrading them with LMG's has no real drawbacks. They still have the same dps close range as they would have vanilla rifles, but theyre much better at range. PPSH have drawbacks. Theyre unusable beyond 10 metres. LMG's have not. You can´t fire them on the move. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll: USA + Soviets in one team?2 May 2014, 22:59 PM Jump back to quoted post2 May 2014, 21:10 PMGenMe also it just turns coh into red alert, its just so lame that the franchise is selling out its WW2 heritage. A fictional theatre is great as a different game, hey I might even buy it, but I don't want that level of historical fiction in coh. I´m totally with you on this one. They will lose some of their playerbase when introducing US + Sov armies in one faction. This is a whole new level of fiction and destroys the game for me also. In: COH2 Gameplay
