Thread: Yet Another Commander and Bulletin thread20 Jul 2014, 14:51 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2014, 09:55 AMGacul You dont have to look at thoose to find out which opening he is going ... It's visible thru fog of war what he is building. Just look at the shape of the "mud". Long and slim > ZiS, Maxim, boxy > clown car/penals. I forgot this was included recently (i think) and i think it´s lame. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Bulletins don't actually stack!?!20 Jul 2014, 03:25 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2014, 01:49 AMTychoCelchuuu This is the biggest clusterfuck ever. I don´t know what to believe D: I mean, on one hand we have someone from Relic stating that they don´t work. On the other hand we have someone who have tried and works... @This isn't taken just in case, can you post a pic and check if it actually applies and it´s not just visual ? I mean, check if it deducts 51 muni. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Yet Another Commander and Bulletin thread20 Jul 2014, 03:20 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2014, 01:10 AMThis isn't taken I hate it when people play mind games - by having three of the same commander in their loadout, and bulletins for units they can't actually build (especially the really useful ones such as 'sturm officer has 5% less suppression'). That causes a big drop in my morale and I tend to surrender. So clearly the system is working as intended. It works against soviets, maybe a bit with OKW but not as much with other factions. How you open as soviet is key and you might read it through bulletins and commander selection. If he has a maxim/mortar/zis i generally less worried about a T1 opening which changes capping order or aproach. Eventhough, it mostly superfluous. I have done the same on previous patches (before the whole revamp on the loadout system) by running no commanders, just 1 commander or German radio intercept. Just for the lulz. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Maxims vs the OKW 19 Jul 2014, 15:14 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2014, 12:53 PMLichtbringer That was possible in CoH1, but in CoH2 the Sniper can't even focus a specific model, so I am pretty sure squads can't do it either. I would love it if my MGs could manually target the enemy models that are OUT OF COVER, but the shitty gunner often times shoots at the wrong ones. On the other hand I would also wish that if 1 out of 4 models is out of cover, not the whole squad gets surpressed. But now its just luck. : sadpanda : I guess sniping gunner is just a matter of having the gunner at range and the crew behind. Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2014, 12:26 PMJaigen But why dont you tell me why maxim should even exist and why this tactics that goes against every single principle of coh should be so effective.. i never heard of mg42/34 spam or 50 cal spam. I guess you haven´t play the game since it´s release "Good" ol days of instapin supress MG42. At my playfield, i´m more relief of someone going with maxims rather than M3/Snipers. And i´m glad if someone goes heavy maxim. @WiFiDi, not that extream but i always thought that support weapons should cap at a slower speed. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Greyhound´s canister shot 19 Jul 2014, 14:57 PM Thx milka. Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2014, 11:25 AMKatitof Guess what? In CoH1 it was instant shot that could wipe whole blob and it was fine and stuart could fight light armor as well. Its fine as well here. You'll squad wipe only if squad clumps up. Greyhound is squishy, arrives when you have plethora of counters, looses to scout cars(pair of 222s will obliterate it and its not like pair of 222s is a bad idea against USF to begin with), looses to puma, even Luchs makes a short work of it. Its expensive at 280mp 40fu, which means there will not be any AA halftrucks, its ability isn't instant, so retreating squads that weren't cut off are safe as well as garrisons duu to spread. Its 100% AI light vehicle in a doctrine that is overall quite poor. Its the only cost effective thing in the doctrine. I happen to have that doctrine(my only doctrine that dropped for me since WFA release) and while it can squad wipe, its not 100% chance and Wehr have all the means to counter it, just as OKW. Aren´t you the first to say that COH1 and COH2 are completely different games ? I´m not fond of using 222 against US when someone goes 3-4 rifles liutenant no bars/nades/ambulance. That for me screams AAHT or at least M20. 222 is too much of a delay wether a pak is going to be useful all game. This coming from someone who use 222 almost all the time against double SU. As i said, i might have been RNGed. Semoisky, got a gren capping the "ol" north fuel point. I have an MG nearby and a pak coming. Greyhound arrives (i expected an AAHT) so i go for the faust, boom wipe. Minute later, he proceeds to push to my base point, pak hits, he moves to a side, i´m turning the pak, and again, wipe. My face -.- Again, thxfully this is a unit on a weak commander. I guess i´ll have to test it to see different scenarios on how it performs. For those who have it: -Can you use the ability on the move (meaning that you can cast it, not fire)? How long is aim time? Meanwhile i will not use cover against it, just charge forward or retreat.

Thread: Yet Another Commander and Bulletin thread19 Jul 2014, 13:57 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2014, 11:49 AMDonnieChan what wins you games? i tell you: mind, strategy and tactics What about the will of the RNG gods? As you say, the 5 starter commander are USUALLY enough but that not means that there are other commanders which are plain better for certain scenarios. Other are just plain better. Does a commander gives you a free win, no, but it gives you an edge, an edge which at certain level can mean the difference between a win or a lose. People are grinding because they want the new commanders to play with. No one cares about bulletins, they just want to play with something else that the 3 starter WFA commanders (before they nerf them ). Eventhough, with bulletins, wouldn´t you play (if it still exist) with 10% supression? What about stacking 3 +3% accuracy having 9,27 extra dps on basic infantry? Or getting vet on certain vehicles 33.1% faster? 12,5% extra pen on AT guns? Why mostly everyone run with 3 basic infantry bulletins? To either not reveal their strat and because that´s a little advantage they get on the early game. It can be the difference between finishing off a squad on retreat or letting it live with a line of health. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Greyhound´s canister shot 19 Jul 2014, 01:50 AM Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2014, 00:52 AMCookiezNcreem It only one shots if the models bunch up,against 4 man squads.(or if you're unlucky with 5-6 men squads.) Its 50 Munitions. Its really just an expensive guards grenade on a fragile mobile vehicle. If it DOESNT wipe a squad then it's a huge waste. I can dodge a nade, i see an animation plus theres a timer between it flies, lands, and explodes. If it doesn´t wipe, you can always chase the unit on retreat, but that´s another history. I guess i have to be thankfull that it´s on a weak rare commander. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Has Western Fronts made the game better???19 Jul 2014, 01:40 AM But who are we going to laugh off ? I´m surprised about the patience the mods have here. Cheers.

Thread: The Jackson and Micro Fairness19 Jul 2014, 01:40 AM I´m not saying that the Jackson is fine or not but your logic is flawed.
