At this point, I would suggest Relic to move on and start over. Seriously, move on.
They've recently released UKF, so they have to support the game for at least a year. I don't know if UKF sales were financially good or not, but adding more to this game is a mistake if you ask me. Not only because of design and balance problems, but because of fundamental engine issues which we are all aware of. I've spend around 70-80 EU on this game and I think I've got the most of it. If they say they will no longer support CoH2, I wouldn't mind (Although this will piss off people who bought UKF, and rightfully so).
Adding content to the game will only worsen performance issues, bug splats and frustration. Move on and make an e-sports compatible game from scratch if you have the resources, then brag about it. |
You only have one problem mate, you never Smoke And Flank. There you go, L2P and Smoke And Flank. |
You can buff up the pen all you want if you completely remove the it's AI capabilities. As right now all the people that ask for a buff think they can get a ISU that performs just like an Elefant while keeping its one shot wipe power.
Exactly. What people want is an Elefant which can also wipe squads. |
ISU right now is extremely unrealiable, the shots hit the smallest bumps on the ground, doesn't hit inf 20 meters away from it... Giving it better accuracy would make it be a "Little" too stronk but goddamn, make the shots fly through small bumps on the road instead of having 40 kilos of explosive become a firework show..... 5 times in a row.....
This is a universal problem and should get fixed. Even fast firing tanks like Ostwind constantly hit ground or battlefield debris (Other tank remains, walls, tractors). Fix this and both ISU and IS-2 will be reliable and hard hitting AI units |
Are you aware of your -4 streak as Usf in 2s? This is probably what happend - you played axis and lost every game and then raged over to allies and lost even more. In-between that you spilled your rage in this forum.
I haven't played the "game" for almost 2 weeks dude. My ranks will soon go "on Hold". But it's still irrelevant, my skill, rank or streak has nothing to do with the game balance or my argument.
Educate yourself please. |
Ostheer doesn't need buffs, they're fine in every way right now imo (atleast in 2v2), the problem lies in usf and ukf overpreforming
Well that would also solve the problem, but I thought buffing one faction would be easier than nerfing 2 (because LeLic). Although their T4 still needs a slight price buff. |
2v2 Randumb is dead, and AT need Military-Level communication and co-ordination if you want to win as Axis (and by axis I mean double Ostheer).
Both the snowballing and the synergy Allied factions have is amazing. Maps are also problematic. OKW needs big changes, and Ostheer needs early game buffs and slight T4 price buff. |
TLDR: Relic, stop listening to community about individual buffs/nerfs of certain units because of balance and instead...
Democracy is a lie.
Anyway, I agree with most of your points. The fact that relic constantly neglects their own design is amazing. More importantly, I don't understand why they do harsh bufs and nerf either. "Flamers OP? Let's nerf them by 70%". "SU-76 UP? Move it to t3 and make it a SU-85". "ML 20 OP? reduce it from 300 to 240".
And then next patch, they would have to revert those changes. I'm pretty sure Flamers will be buffed pretty soon. Someone needs to Nerf their Nerf/Buff hammers.
That's the reason I haven't played the game for like 2 weeks. Even winning is not very fun.

I haven't played 4v4 for almost a year I think, but as far as I remember, there is always one Soviet player who rushes, and then spams Katys (like 3-4 katys). If you play 4v4 Randumb, then there is no counter just GG and quit. But if you have an AT, 2 katys will win you the game. Fire one at the blob and the other one at Med Truck. He stays, he dies. He retreats, he dies.
But after all... 4v4... |

can we apply that logic to the pak/6pdr too?
NO NO FACTION DESIGN IS DIFFERENT NO NO
But seriously, considering its time of arrival, target size and damage I would say it;s fine. You can't just YOLO with it, Ostwind is faster because you have to break the line with it or flank enemy position. Centaur is just not made for that. It's a great support platform and it's vet1 is also good. |
