Toss up for me between Stug, JPIV and Firefly, but chose Firefly because of its really nice alpha strike ability and great vet. Honestly, any of my 3 could have been my vote. |

I agree, I was puzzled by this change which removes player control. This would effectively be a slight nerf to this unit. |

First post, much rage.
Is a decal that important? And wouldn't a contest based around Valentine's Day require you to play on that day?
Maybe if you are lucky they will change the requirements and give it out anyway. Seriously though, its just a decal. |
not really. they still keep their recieved accuracy modifiers.
Indeed they would, but not being able to hit anything, is a bit of a problem.
Though I agree, I was being hyperbolic in my post. |
Hmm.. I don't know that it's correct to compare the Katty with the PWer guys.
I think you have to consider the squadsize here.
OSTH has 4 man squads, while Sov has 6 man squads (overall). So I think the arty of OSTH can be slightly 'better' to make up for that. I don't know if you can follow me here, but if 3 men get killed in an artillery barrage, it's much more of an impact for OSTH than it is for Sov.
It can be toned down a tiny bit though.
The squad size argument can no longer be used in light of Allied factions sometimes having 4, and some German units having 6. |
INFANTRY (NOT INCLUDING TEAM WEAPONS*) WEAPON VETERANCY WILL NOT WORK ON REINFORCED MEMBERS, ONLY ON THE MEMBERS PRESENT WHEN YOU HIT A VETERANCY LEVEL
Wow...I mean...I guess...this should be moved to the top of the list and fixed even if it would mean delaying the new patch.
Infantry vet, which is kinda of a big deal, is critical for play, and I feel like I have been playing another game then. This also explains why scripts are just soooooooo bad at the 15 minute mark. |

Mortar pits are really annoying. In fact, all emplacements are crap to play against. These are hold overs from COH1 when Brits were designed to be played by people interesting in beating the computer on bridge maps. Now the emplacements in COH2 encourage the same sloppy behavior.
I would like to see them removed (they won't be), and am concerned at the way in which they can lock out large sections of the map with limited micro. In any case, they need some buffs and nerfs to help them at least make for interesting gameplay. |
I think it would be delusional to suggest that the Allied factions are not considerably stronger in all game modes this patch. The Calliope and m1919s being two of the biggest offenders.
Either way throwing mud in the form of fanboy accusations does nothing but harm the game.
There are many well deserved nerfs and buffs in this patch. The AEC might be too weak for 60 fuel though, and the health of the calliope is unchanged meaning it will still be potent while not being an iWin button.
Maxims are still going to be a nightmare in 1s though sadly. And Brits might fade back to non relevance.
I think this only partially true. Many of the strengths the Allies currently offer are locked behind commanders, both of the worst offenders are coming in line. People without them (me) have not been able to feel such a huge impact on their games and will actually feel like overall the Allies are still in need of buffs. I suspect that in larger game modes things will swing firmly back into German hands, and in smaller modes the field should be more level again. |
It was the splash that let it finish squads off effectively. Unless the Coaxial MGs can do the same, its going to be hard to justify going for it and a lot harder to keep the faction together.
Which was why it wasn't fair. It always got to chase down an injured squad. This also caused problems because model loss was inconsistent, sometimes 3 models would die on one hit, sometimes it would clip a piece of green cover and nothing would happen. The MG makes the DPS vs. infantry more obvious and provides the observant player more counter play.
Play with the unit first, then we can decide if the changes make it too lackluster to afford slowing down Cromwell purchase. |

Took me a second to read this correctly, clearly P47's rockets need to be more effective at hitting tanks. Playing USF late game is pretty miserable right now. |
