Thread: SU-76 - A Slight Adjustment1 Jun 2020, 19:59 PM I like the idea of giving the main gun 160 damage at vet 1 instead of a new ability. The SU-76 already has a lot of utility, (especially if the Barrage cooldown gets reduced) but lacks firepower. This is basically turning the dynamic on its head and giving it the ability up front and the damage at Vet 1. This is a unit that will be tricky to buff though. Barrage lets the SU-76 push away a lot of the normal TD counters. Lack of turning and mobility may be a necessary weakness if Barrage becomes usable at a faster rate. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The HM-38 needs a reload buff8 May 2020, 23:06 PM While we're at it, the tooltip still says 10 pop while the unit itself is only 9. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Elite Armour shuts down a Brit player early6 May 2020, 20:03 PM Stick to spamming 'Axis OP'. Every time you try to seriously discuss balance you post something ridiculous, get destroyed, and then demand the mods close the thread. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Pioneers after early game28 Apr 2020, 19:54 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Apr 2020, 19:13 PMthedarkarmadillo Both those factions are not meant to use their engineers as front line units. And you still wouldn't. Flamethrower Engineers aren't dominating games now, and allowing them to upgrade to retain some relevance in the late game isn't going to change that. Its just a way to make them slightly more useful when forced into combat, which is the entire point of this thread. Jump back to quoted post28 Apr 2020, 19:13 PMthedarkarmadillo Choices used to be a thing. Stop trying to make no brainer "just sink resources into units and they can do anything" style designs a thing. We need to move away from that not towards it. Thats funny given that the Minesweeper upgrade is clearly the no brainer option right now. So tell me, should we split the repair speed buff into its own upgrade to force choices? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Pioneers after early game28 Apr 2020, 18:58 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Apr 2020, 18:48 PMgrammar If you can get both the flamer and sweeper, it makes the flamer much closer to a no-brainer choice. Right now, getting the flamer puts you in debt because you're going to need another squad to sweep mines sooner or later. ...And? Both of those factions want multiple engineers mid-late game anyway. All this change would do is make them slightly more effective in combat. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Someone have use the M20 lately?28 Apr 2020, 18:54 PM Going from the M20 to the 222 feels like swapping out a Super Soaker for a Shotgun. The vehicle is really unimpressive for its cost now. Losing out on Captain tech to do so makes it feel even worse. In: COH2 Gameplay

They currently get none, and pios especially would benefit since they have smgs I think limiting engineering squads to either a Flamethrower or Minesweeper is just an outdated concept. I'd rather see the Flamethrower just count as a weapon slot and not disable clearance packages. It would make Engineers more combat effective without having to worry about balancing vet changes.

Thread: Tier list 1vs1 21 Apr 2020, 19:48 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Apr 2020, 19:26 PMGrumpy It'd would be really hard to balance at any timing short of a Company Command Post. Right now, it seems really situational. It's great against an Ost that wants to camp with bunkers and weapon teams, but mediocre against everything else. Camping Ost is really the only time i've missed having mobile, indirect fire platforms as Brits, so yes that would be the primary reason I want it. A shorter, lower ranged, more accurate barrage on a cheaper platform would be ideal against anyone just trying to camp a spot. A T2 Land Mattress that had a T3 upgrade (maybe locked behind Anvil or Hammer) to bring it closer in line with the existing version would work very well within the existing faction imo.

Thread: Tier list 1vs1 21 Apr 2020, 18:37 PM Just in the interest of having some Asymmetry, I'd actually be more interested in the Land Mattress being moved off doctrinal and being made into their 'mortar'. In: COH2 Balance

Stormjäger They already validated my argument by coming on AE’s twitch and gloating about UKF not ruining the tournament. So instead of apologizing for being wrong and calling for the balance teams resignation, you are instead saying you were right because they pointed out you were wrong. K.. In: COH2 Balance
