Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OKW Feedback5 Dec 2020, 04:53 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Dec 2020, 04:25 AMmiragefla There'll be some significant changes upcoming. It's likely we will be testing a different variation of the OKW Battlegroup that makes the comannder armor tier rush less potent, while dealing with OKW's issue with backteching for medics. Hopefully keeping Battlegroup's medics, that was my favourite change of the lot. It didn't sit right with me that the truck with the giant cross on it didn't actually heal you. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] OST Feedback5 Dec 2020, 00:30 AM That is a good point. Grenadiers might not be inherently weak, but they might be disadvantaged by their arrival time, and against Riflemen and Sections this could be hurting them. I'd be all for swapping them and the HMG, and moving Panzergrenadiers back to T2 and maybe boosting them slightly. My concern with that is that Conscripts will have a tougher time with Grenadiers arriving more quickly, and the Soviet faction is already in a precarious position. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Tank Destroyer Standardization4 Dec 2020, 20:20 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Dec 2020, 13:42 PMSaintPauli The hunter/brawler role is simply not working in a cost-effective manner. Armor is borderline useless vs AT-guns and tank destroyers. Diving you more expensive panther against another tank destroyer will most often result in a loss because of snares. Right now the panther has the honor of being both the worst and the most expletive tank destroyer in (maps with lost of shot blockers and 4v4 blobfests changes this). I must disagree, AT Guns have a good 20% chance to deflect against a Panther, hardly reliable but with 960 health it does inspire confidence. Tank Destroyers are squishy which makes the Panther overkill for chasing them, but even just chasing them away and backing off is a win. Furthermore you could also use the Panther to hunt down any medium tank or push away IS-2 or Pershings. The Panthers high health, armor, and mobility combined with Blitz make it the undeniable king of dives. In: COH2 Balance

Every player should have a camera position from south to north. I think playing as north hard to others. You know you can rotate the camera right? Hold ALT and move the mouse. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] SOV Feedback4 Dec 2020, 06:58 AM For Penal Battalions, maybe a combination of bonus penetration at Vet 2/3 and an additional PTRS Package at T4 will help them against Mediums. That would encourage you to spare some Penals rather than massing PTRS on all available units. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Tank Destroyer Standardization4 Dec 2020, 02:52 AM It's kind of hard to standardize the Panther, that thing is in a class of it's own. I think of it as a Tank Hunter rather than a Tank Destroyer. Tank Destroyers try to delete tanks without exposing themselves to too much harm. Tank Hunters aren't afraid to dive the enemy tank and chase them down even if it means taking a few hits. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: General Balancing Ideas4 Dec 2020, 00:48 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Dec 2020, 22:57 PMVipper That is incorrect. The ST44 VGs uses a profile vastly different from the one PG and SP uses, it rather flat. It allot close to SVT. The FG-42 again uses a unique profile that makes the weapon good at all range. Lower DPS doesn't mean it's not the same type of profile. It follows a similar pattern to the others, starting flat, then a lumpy downward slant (not curve). The SVT's curve is consistent with the M1 Garand and G43. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: General Balancing Ideas3 Dec 2020, 22:50 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Dec 2020, 19:41 PMVipper Vs's MP44 is weapon that does not use a standard weapon profile, it close to G43. It allow the unit to fight decently. The MP44 uses smg profile and thus is only good at close range. The change would create 2 uses for VG. Either upgrade good at long range or upgrade good at sort ranges. The StG 44 uses the Automatic Rifle profile, alongside the FG 42 and BAR. In general this means they are as effective as an SMG at close range or a bolt-action rifle at long range, while being most effective at mid-range vs SMG or LMG or Semi-Auto. The VG StG does use this profile, it just has a much lower damage ceiling. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T-34 rework2 Dec 2020, 20:58 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Dec 2020, 10:36 AMSander93 You're describing the KV-1 here. I was actually just thinking T-34-85 without the 85mm gun, which is a far better point of comparison. The KV-1 has damage reduction that gives it a much higher effective HP than 800, taking 7 shots instead of 5. In: COH2 Balance
