Thread: Sniper Balance25 Feb 2014, 13:14 PM instead of trying to adjust the hell out of the soviet sniper, drop the second model on it and give it the same armor/cloaking as the ost sniper (but not fire rate to compensate for the smaller ost squad sizes). Fix the bug where you cant counter-snipe the last sniper model in the M3 and problem solved. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Radio Intercept19 Feb 2014, 23:47 PM personally (not that it matters) i think both take a fundamental competitive skill away from the game - scouting (not that you really can do a base scout with much of anything anyway) At least I know as a soviet that if I see G43's, it would be incredibly rare for someone to get an interrogation off. As a german, I have no idea from the get go if the other guy knows exactly what I'm doing. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Radio Intercept19 Feb 2014, 22:23 PM The point is how much intelligence should be given. No one complained about this ability before because it was attached to some pretty mediocre other abilities, which provided balance. Now that it is in arguably the best soviet doctrine, it's natural to question its balance, no? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: 7CP 2x T34/85 and 9CP 1x T34/8519 Feb 2014, 01:31 AM Jump back to quoted post18 Feb 2014, 23:27 PMMad_Hatter I look more at fuel than mp costs when comparing tank costs and 13o isn't far off from 145. Yes manpower cost does play into it, but even if you're losing the map control game you'll have manpower to throw at it whereas you may not have fuel. That's part of the reason why I still dislike the new tiger ace since its the only tank callin in coh2 that followed the vcoh model and it doesn't seem balanced. People keep alluding to it, but lets put some numbers out there: Assuming that a german player is at tier 2 and wants to get a P4: Escalate to battle phase 2: 200 mp/35 fuel Build Tier 3: 160 mp/ 25 fuel P4: 320 mp/ 115 fuel total: 680 mp / 175 fuel Panther: Escalate to battle phase 2: 200 mp/35 fuel Escalate to battle phase 3: 200 mp/50 fuel Build Tier 4: 160 mp / 30 fuel Panther: 600 mp / 145 fuel Total: 1160 mp / 260 fuel T34/85: no tech pray that you survive call in: 360 mp, 130 fuel So in conclusion: a single p4 costs an additional +320 mp / +45 fuel and a panther is an additional +800mp/+130 fuel. If you wanted to compare 2 T34/85s to 2 P4s, then the P4's would still be an additional +280mp/+30 fuel. More important than the costs is that this call in lets you go T4, while still having a relatively affordable option of getting T34s to supplement your SU-85s. I havent played enough with this doctrine to make a final call on it yet, but I am liking it so far. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: That RNG that COH2 has but not vCOH....and the Coversystem 15 Feb 2014, 17:26 PM 1.) Change ram to 100% chance to crew shock both tanks + some minorish damage, based on size of the rammed thing. 2.) Give t34/76 a munitions based upgrade to t34/85. Presto, suddenly they're more AT capable and scale better into the late game. This paradigm worked extremely well in CoH1 with Shermans. +1! In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Nerf the Sturmovik12 Feb 2014, 16:04 PM I like the assumed patch notes a lot and cant wait to try them (especially regarding the IL2). That being said, it would be nice if AA was in general more effective. For example, if you have a m5/ostwind in the area then the plane should be shot down more reliably every pass (50-75% chance as elchino7 suggested), the upgunned 222/m3 should have a ~25% chance per pass, and the tank gunners should be left as is. To increase the risk/reward of it, if a plane is shot down, it should prevent future planes call ins from coming in (or at least significantly increase the cool down) to reward the defensive player for having AA, and prevent the offensive player from just blindly calling in plane. *note: this "shot down bonus" should not apply to recon runs.

Thread: Veteran (age) league and tournaments10 Feb 2014, 15:39 PM An alternative to using people's ladder rank would be to use their past tourny experience, as the ladder rank does not always correlate with actual skill. Coming from a CS background, we had CAL-Invite, CAL-Main, CAL-Open... so on and so forth. So for the first tournament, you could have a qualification to place people into different leagues, with the assumption that people would be moved up or down a division based on their performance.
