Thread: Penals have the worst mainline infantry target size26 Aug 2022, 13:35 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Aug 2022, 13:02 PMVipper Fact remains they do not have 90% accuracy on the move (and 80% is not 90%). The modifier on its own does not say much and one should be looking at total DPS. Allies also have infatry that are "excellent for chase down wipes" while VG and grenadiers are not. I was just commenting on him using accuracy. I agree the modifier on its own doesn't say much, I wish there was a way for the game to show what certain increases due such as acc/cooldown/moving acc/reload etc.. However moving on to total DPS, a stationary PF G43 does 9.418 while moving does 8.266 which means almost 88% of total DPS is maintained. Drops to a bit above 86% with VET, giving a quick look no other weapon maintains that level of performance on the move which is why it works so well in blobs. Again I am assuming Serelias numbers are accurate. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Penals have the worst mainline infantry target size26 Aug 2022, 12:56 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Aug 2022, 11:17 AMaerafield While it was kinda funny when (arranged) teams pulled it off, it got removed because it was broken. The combat veterancy with then double 1.3 accuracy multipliers (now 1.3 and 1.2 at vet 2 and 3 respectively) is clearly not designed with weapon slots in mind. Almost +70% dps at vet 3 and double LMG turned them into absolute terminator squads that won every fight with ease to a point where it was hopeless for axis inf. Some people even took that a step further and spammed "For Mother Russia" with then +50% accuracy It was as bad as when Conscripts had 2 slots or when the +300% accuracy cover bonus from Osttruppen applied to their slot weapons with 0 penalty Even now, with a single LMG they are great. With Airborne Guards dropping DP, I can literally upgrade my Penals also which makes them a terror at range. They are also a decent amount stronger per gun due to the vet you described. Overall, they probably should have removed a weapon slot or even both and made their VET a bit better. It probably would have been easier to balance that way. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Dominated early, unexplained ally drop caused mad scramble26 Aug 2022, 12:43 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Aug 2022, 22:44 PMDonnieChan gj, nice support weapon play Thanks. Where you been at bro, haven't seen any games posted by you lately. In: Replays
Thread: Dominated early, unexplained ally drop caused mad scramble25 Aug 2022, 15:57 PM Ally made sniper so I went penal/clowncar. Early on we had 3 engineers vs 1 Sturm, funny fight. OST player was slow to help so we were able to push and keep right side. I eventually help flank left side which ally is able to hold on to after I leave. We pretty much start to dominate and ally inexplicably just drops at 21mins, from there I hold middle and throwing away units trying to put the game away before computer ally shits away the game. Axis pulled off a slow effective flank to kill allied sniper. They probably would have won if the Axis player matched up against CPU would have just dived and used up his resources. He was hoarding for no reason. Since he wouldn't commit I had chances to recrew MG/mortar and keep VP pressure up. In: Replays
Thread: Both teams spammed resource trucks17 Aug 2022, 13:01 PM Probably one of the things I hate to see as it only helps the owner and not the entire team. It also seems to benefit soviets more as cons+reinforcements are cheap, so MP waste not big factor. Highlights Ally KV2 around 40 kills Failed push by multiple axis resulted in dead Tiger/P4J, however I lost both tanks Axis did a great job punishing left side of map and spamming early tanks. I didn't realize one player was cache and truck spamming so they got tanks out pretty quick. Fairly good teamwork on both sides Lowlights I tried to push and kill KT, messed up lost 1 SU85 and almost lost 2nd. Pretty noobish stuff In: Replays
Thread: Buff M8 Greyhound, seems naturally. 16 Aug 2022, 13:42 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Aug 2022, 12:51 PMleithianz Are you sure nerfed is not the right word you are looking for? As one of the players who consistently spoke for the nerf of the stealth-ninja raket from the beginning, I never thought I would be the one to defend it; but truth to be told OKW is currently one of the weakest factions in early vehicle timing(6~16 min.) along with UKF. I'm not sure about what other good players think, but I personally put OKW next to UKF in 1v1. Something like SOV >= WM = USF >> OKW >> UKF DO you mean the units themselves or the timings. FLAK track comes in around the 6 min mark, luchs is a tiny bit before 7 mins with equal fuel. So the timings aren't to bad. To me the bigger issue seems to be the tech choice. If both buildings had the option to upgrade meds/repairs I think mechanized would see a resurgence. The fact that you have to pick LV vs healing is nonsense. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Forgot how cancerous 4v4 could be12 Aug 2022, 16:05 PM Haven't played 4v4 in a bit. Martell sent me an invite so played a two game with his friends. Ive gotten rusty on 4v4 timings/maps, so took me a bit to get acclimated. Lost early T3476 like a complete noob, tried to help USF as he was getting owned, hit mine, my katy barraged to late to save it. We were getting slapped until we got down to 150 points. At that point, T34 blob went down to help USF with all out push while my katy barraged and then USF cali followed right after. OKW literally lost every thing including buildings except for Jagdtiger. As I went terror, I was on arty killing duty with plane drop and satchels. 1 OST player literally had no army and 4 maybe 5 lefh. Which left them quite vulnerable once we started getting aggressive.

Thread: Guards vs Airborne Long Range11 Aug 2022, 10:49 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2022, 10:22 AMVipper Vet abilities (and bonuses) should be designed around specific units and their role. Firing position for Thompson/PPsh guards would be a bad design so I see no real reason for such a change. A cloaked PPSH Guard hiding with firing positions active and on hold fire would work fairly well together for a trap. The acc bonus plus cooldown bonus would make it like a budget tactical advance. For Zooks it wouldn’t be to bad as you would reload even faster right? For Thompsons it would be fairly useless outside of forcing units out of garrisons using nade and then firing positions to put DPS them or holding onto a point. However if they pick up an LMG in the empty slot instantly becomes a zone of death. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Opp went with 3MG opening10 Aug 2022, 20:45 PM Ost opposite of me went with 3 MG opening, did fairly well against it but my allies seemed to be a team. They kind of turtled together and rarely came to help. AT one point I got Triple teamed, so we were way behind in gas. I ended up going PTRS Penals x3, got 2 OSTWINDS with them and he eventually gave up. The other axis gave up shortly after. In: Replays
