Thread: [Winter Balance Update] UKF Feedback26 Jan 2021, 19:31 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 16:45 PMVipper So my point it that they did not do worse then they did in previous tournaments, they probably did better that does not mean they competitive in 1vs1. They did worse. 25% > 23% And the problem is that it goes beyond the performance of the players. I think there's a difference between player preference and directly someone who mains a specific faction deciding to drop it all together. Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 16:56 PMVipper Main problem with UKF is that they are bad mostly in 1vs1 and do better the bigger the mode gets. So it rather difficult to buff them in 1vs1 without to breaking them in other modes. Imo not sure they can be fixed without a new design. Yep. Infantry Sections are the equivalent to resource handicap for OKW. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: radio silence change26 Jan 2021, 19:19 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 18:52 PMGiaA tbh, the coh2 subreddit is an absolute shithole. Pure echo chamber of scrubs. coh2.org is much better. That's the problem with the community. I would love to see an hybrid system, keeping the functionalities of the forums while having a voting system that highlights the "hottest" comments in a thread based in votes and timeframe. Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 18:55 PMGeblobt Playercard will just lead to ad hominem. Oh you are rank 500 and im rank 100 so my points are more valid. And i dont see why a rank 2000 4vs4 player cant come up with good points, if they use competitive play and statistics. About radio silence: The first step would be to nerf some minor things like cooldown, uptime and cost. Afterwards you can assert if this was enough or if you have to completely change/remove the mechanic itself with the upcoming balance patch. If there's a will, ad hominem can be moderated. It's WAY MORE LIKELY that someone who is high ranked UNDERSTANDS the game that someone who is low ranked. This is not SC2 or CS:GO where you need high levels of physical input in order to perform well. The same points you bring now has been brought in the past. This "fear" of hurting people's ego and gatekeeping is why you don't have quality discussions been done. You need some kind of filter so you have a more selected discussion been done while keeping it public so people can see. At the same time you give the space in the same forum but another sub section so everyone can discuss freely. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: radio silence change26 Jan 2021, 18:49 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 18:18 PMVipper Are sure it is that and not the trolling that goes around? I'm sure. Same reason why we have lost so many strategist throughout the years and why there's have always been a different forum/discord/steam group for a smaller group of players to discuss balance changes. Reddit tends to have a circlejerck/mindhive problem but the voting system at least filters the discussion in one direction, even though the platform itself is not good for prolonged discussion. Not sure how it could be implemented but the forum needs some simil function. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: radio silence change26 Jan 2021, 17:58 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 17:25 PMSmartie ... Suggestions/feedback have been given directly to the mod team, now and in the past. The reason most top level players don't want to discuss in the forums has been given time and time again. Cause we follow a politic of allowing anyone to provide their own feedback regardless of how poor it is, it feels pointless trying to engage in any kind of discussion when the view points are completely different and you don't receive an answer with the same kind of though and effort behind it. Even asking the minimum of showing a playercard has been deemed as too elitist and gatekeeping. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: radio silence change26 Jan 2021, 17:49 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 09:33 AMSander93 Also reminder that no one ever used it before it got the movement bonus. Because most players don't use the minimap and barely use the tactical map. Specially when most people play teamgames, modes on which the minimap is practically useless as it's too clogged with icons. It has always been a niche ability that only worked when used by good players against good players. This kind of abilities only becomes relevant and in the focus of the community when metas don't revolve around the strength of specific doctrinal infantry/vehicles. Example: something simil happened with radio intercept, when it passively let you know the location of mines deployed by the enemy when pressing space bar. There's a sad reality that some things should NEVER BE META VIABLE outside of trolling games. Radio silence is one of them. B4, old signal relay, Partisans map hack, goliaths, etc. NO ONE CARED about radio silence before and it's fine. Because it doesn't provide such a compelling use for the one using it and it's extremely frustrating for the one in the opposite side. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: radio silence change26 Jan 2021, 09:12 AM Couldn't you replace it with some blank icon for the duration of the ability? Basically you are hiding the information of what type of unit is attacking while not making them a whole invisible army. I like your proposed solution but not sure how hard is for it to be implemented at all. PD: reminder that this whole thing became good the moment we attached sprint into it. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] UKF Feedback26 Jan 2021, 09:05 AM If UKF was an Axis faction, the forums would had implode by the end of the tournament. Guess we are back at WCS 1 levels of performance and we still circle around the same original problems the factions has. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: So is 5 man grens completely useless now26 Jan 2021, 08:57 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 07:28 AMmrgame2 Well I took a bigger sample size by all. That seems vsl commander is not dominating unlike the other 3 allies commanders mentioned Still yours show sov edging games won 41v43, 60v78? No matter where you look at, OH did more than fine during the tournament. Against Soviets, they won more games. In the global stats, they had a perfectly balanced 50% WR. When the skill gap between players was small, the numbers show that the factions are balanced, specially when you consider that a 5% difference is normal. The number between brackets represent the numbers of games. Also don't take commanders WR so much at face value. It's way more important pick rate for that case. For example take a look at soviets most popular pick with Defensive tactics sitting at 33% (18) (ALL). Is the commander bad for 1v1? No, but it's probable picked when the player is already in a losing position and they need the emergency AT from the 45mm. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: So is 5 man grens completely useless now26 Jan 2021, 07:22 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 03:52 AMmrgame2 Allies still have higher win rates for all players. If we removed ukf outlier, the % of allies dominance grows higher too I guess you skipped the part where OH won barely more games against Soviets, the most picked faction? OH basically lost more games against USF and did extremely well against UKF. Guess what happens when you take a look at games were they are more even skill wise: When the difference is lower than 8 OH: 58.5% (41) OKW: 50% (26) SOV: 44.2% (43) USF: 52.6% (19) UKF: 20% (5) Seed difference ≤16 51.7% (60) 45.3% (53) 53.8% (78) 53.8% (26) 22.2% (9) Let me say this: -Reminder this is a terminator format. This favours EFA who have a wider pool of simil commanders to pick from. -Anything in the realm of around ±5% is BALANCED. It's only worth looking at heavy outliers values (see UKF, although the faction itself has always had problems outside of balance) -Commander popularity tells a better story. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: So is 5 man grens completely useless now26 Jan 2021, 01:17 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Jan 2021, 00:10 AMStug life leaving aside the fact that osther is crutching on that commander and and still losing easily Vs sov and USF in the same tournament The missing NERF is to the move dps, g43 loses 8% DPS on the move the stg loses 50% Idk if it's heavy or not , just compare a rifle bar DPS Vs 5 green DPS until is balanced No need for another mobile defence OH with the perfect 50% WR OH winning more games against soviets with 50.8% Not sure how the commander ends up doing, but pro players deem it worth of using it for the tournament.
