The partisan map hack ability is the broken one that shows all units to everyone for 10-12 seconds while the G43 shows it for like 2-4 seconds? Again, I hardly ever use the g43 ability because it doesn't even work a majority of the time. I think radio shouldn't tell you where mines are placed, but I'm fine with it telling the other player if I placed the mine so he can actually invest in minesweepers. Get my point? Is the interrogation ability on Partisan commander a different one? Because if its not then all you got is a note of what's been built and occasional ping on mini map. It doesn't show units location. Regarding mines being revealed. You get ping on mini map so it's not that you know exact location and it's easy to miss the ping as well. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Radio Intercept20 Feb 2014, 19:01 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Feb 2014, 17:53 PMShazz People are really comparing an ability that requires: - 3CP - a 60 munitions investment which can be lost - a dying soldier (not dead, dying) near the upgraded unit - requires player action to use - gives a small window of information To: - 0cp - reports on everything the enemy builds for the rest of the game with 100% accuracy (bugs not withstanding) - requires no player involvement This has nothing to do with fanboy-isms, stop "playing the race card". This has always been an issue, it has just been mostly irrelevant because it was in the worst Soviet commander in the game and therefor didn't see the light of day. Now that it is in a good commander it merits looking into. Passive chance to intercept at some percentage with ability to spend munitions to increase the percentage for say a minute would probably work, though the ability is pretty lazy to begin with. You right. Soviet one will only give you text notice of what's being build and sometimes a ping on minimal that will show the position. You still can miss that ping however (some skill requirement there and you have to remembered the place for yourself. German one gives you free recon plane like ability that will show you entire location of enemy army and what's where. Now you see why the difference? Not my faulty majority of players don't know how to use it. And to clarify if Soviet one is OP then German one is game braking. At least be honest when calling for a nerf. In: COH2 Balance

It is and was included in one of the strongest commanders before - the one with T-34/85 and IS-2 (Armoured Assault if I'm not mistaken). In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Radio Intercept20 Feb 2014, 01:02 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Feb 2014, 00:36 AMKreatiir Cmon man, give in.. It's a 0 CP ability and you get ALL INFO. The other ability comes with an upgrade and it doesn't get all info. I think the 60% is good. Or having info like; P... depl...d = p4 deployed. Get it? It shouldn't give everything away, just tiny bits of things. Anyway, i'm drunk so I'm out. Germans got the same thing basically and this forum just getting ridiculous with everyone jumping on OP "nerf it" bandwagon. The funny thing is that as I said 80% of them didn't even remember the ability exists or what it does. In: COH2 Balance

The problem is for interrogation you need a squad and a almost dead guy for this to work. So its not so easy to be done. Radio intercept if just from the start and tells you everything for the rest of the game. For me that is plain stupid, it kills the fun. I don't like both, and don't use them. That is just my opinion, if you guys disagree that is fine. You got plenty of dying soldiers after each skirmish. The only difference is that you have to use ability all the time you want information. Or just do it after each skirmish. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Elefants19 Feb 2014, 18:57 PM Being on both sides I admit that Elefant is almost unbeatable in the hands of experienced player. You can only kill it when your opponent overextends. That said Elefant is only good on certain maps. In: COH2 Balance
