Thread: Accuracy Mechanics 12 Oct 2014, 20:05 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Oct 2014, 18:29 PMNinjaWJ thanks for clarifying milka. i guess it would add a whole layer of confusion and complication. what do u think is the best solution to prevent blobbing? I honestly think that all hmgs except the Kubel could use an aoe suppression buff. Not a huge one but a little something. In CoH 1, if you walked your rifles face first into an mg, they were all suppressed almost immediately. In Coh2, it's not uncommon to see two infantry squads side by side approach an MG and the one being shot is suppressed while the other just moves to the side a bit and "flanks" the mg. Hmgs are meant to be blob control units and currently they generally aren't amazing at it unless you do a lot of manual targeting in which case the blob often has time to frontally decrew the gunner.

Thread: My problem with OKW and USF12 Oct 2014, 18:31 PM Sorry, I didn't mean to sound bitter but cons suck right now at any point past like the 5 minute mark and it just kind of bugs me when people say or imply that volks are worse. Volks scale pretty darn well and cons don't. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: PAK 40 is overperforming when compared to other AT guns10 Oct 2014, 18:33 PM Stephenn you're always so level headed in your analysis. Gotta say I respect your opinions a lot. I agree with what you said. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: My Thoughts on USF Anti-Tank Structure... 10 Oct 2014, 01:30 AM Jump back to quoted post10 Oct 2014, 00:32 AMThe_Courier Flanking with Jacksons is a terrible idea anyway. They are way too fragile and one mistake = burning wreck. They also have no getaway ability of any kind, unless you want to count Sherman smoke for some reason. They are much inferior to Panthers for this, or even T-34/85s who have least have some durability to help them. This wouldn't be that big of an issue if zookas were useful in flanks, as a synergy. But their penetration and accuracy is so piss poor you pretty much have to park your infantry on the ass of a heavy tank for them to have any sort of effectiveness. This simply doesn't work in a normal game. This. Both the USF and the soviets are woefully lacking in any kind of effective infantry based AT. It's a big part of why the German late game so drastically out classes the allies. In: COH2 Gameplay

All vehicles penetration cut in half to compensate 8CP - Stand here and take it Units are sometimes unable to move after the enemy fires artillery Hahaha! Winner! In: Lobby
Thread: Retreating Maxim team stops10 Oct 2014, 00:07 AM Constantly have this bug with maxims and .50cals. Splash damage on AT guns also cancles their orders. Massively frustrating and pretty game breaking at times. Hope it gets fixed soon. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: My Thoughts on USF Anti-Tank Structure... 9 Oct 2014, 21:55 PM Just out of curiosity, why do zooks need to be as bad as they are currently? Is it for fear of rifle blobs being too good against all targets? I find them to be ok at killing light vehicles like Pumas and half tracks and what not and when combined with at guns they are mildly effective at discouraging flanks from medium tanks but they're not even remotely scary for anything bigger. Even then, they seem to miss and bounce off of p4 frontal all of the time. Putting a zook on anything but an RE gives up a lot of AI power and currently the trade off seems really underwhelming. When I put a shriek on a volks, I always feel it's worth it, when I buy a zook I often feel I wasted munis. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Lost Orders ... And some thoughts8 Oct 2014, 21:40 PM This is one of the most frustrating bugs in a game full of bugs. Having a unit just stop when you're trying to time a flank or having a unit decide that it's just going to stand in negative cover and eat mortar rounds for the .2 more seconds that it's alive, even after you told it to go get in that nice green cover right next to it is just... Infuriating. In: Lobby
