The Jackson's 200 penetration is still very good, especially once you start using the 30 Munitions (cheap as all hell) HVAP Rounds ability. I'm pretty sure that's buffs the penetration to somewhere around 350, as I've been able to penetrate Tigers from max distance rather reliably.
The Jackson is good enough. Although I'm not very up for seeing a Jumbo 76 - those things would be unstoppable.
How many times do you keep JAcksons at short range?
Its realistic penetration is 160 at far range, because far range is when you will use it most.
The ability is great, but normal penetration is nothing exceptional and pretty average for a tank destroyer. |
Quick note: I just noticed the description on the M23 Smoke Screen Grenade- it says "Any vehicles hit by the grenade will be temporarily blinded and slowed." Can anyone confirm that?
If you still haven't been hit by it, yes, it snares, blinds and disables weaponry on the vehicle.
Pretty great support for countering tanks. Players just don't use it because they underestimate it like all other smoke abilities. |
The sniper team is fine if it didn't steer away from realism too much. From what I remember WW2 snipers were always working alone and never with a mate. To justify for the two men, the Soviet sniper shoots slower compared to his German counterpart. Is this another stereotype of Soviet inferiority. Vasily Zaitsev was one of the best sniper and he was a Soviet. Both snipers should be equal and get better with vet.
Actually, soviet snipers did worked in pairs.
German snipers worked alone and US and brits didn't really used snipers, but sharpshooters. |

1) Both.
2) That is really a faction dependent, you can't really call USF rifle a "spam" as they have no other choice. And 4-5 seem to be general thought, but there are people who are strongly convinced that 2 is a spam. |
The penetration of jacksons is just sick.
The eat tigers for breakfast.
A little over 50% to penetrate from max range.
66% at point blank range.
Oh the sickness of the penetration.
I'm not saying its low, I'm saying if you want to talk about sick penetration you should look at Panther. |
Jeeps, mortars, and snipers. Of which they have none of in COH2.
On top of that smoke that made you immune for suppression, nuclear grenades, "fire up" abilities. |
Molotov, maxim, zis barrage, katausha, isu152... you cant kill a blob with those at your disposal? This is a L2P matter.
Ohh yea, that short range molotovs gonna rape them LMG blobs good.
Do you always type random things on your keyboard and call them counters? |
|
What exactly stops you from repositioning if they get suppressed and use smoke?(because they won't know you're there for the first time)
Also, thats about everything USF have against HMGs, no mortars, no snipers, no oorah. |
I remember when Pioneers did damage and everyone lost their minds and cried for nerfs were everywhere, but for 60 manpower more Assault Engineers do twice as much damage and people want them buffed more.
This community is so weird sometimes.
80 more, doctrinal and going up against firepower designed to fight 5-6man squads while being 4.
I like bursting them bias bubbles. They pop so easily. |
|
Oh believe me, the generally unpleasent maps are nuisance for all players.
I know only a single player who likes stalingrad for example. |
