Thread: Relic: are tanks supposed to solo AT guns?26 Apr 2014, 20:10 PM Stugs are batshit crazy this patch. As for Tigers and IS-2, its beyond retarded to expect a single AT gun to take them out. Cost disparity alone should give you a hint on the effectiveness. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: ISU-15226 Apr 2014, 18:10 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Apr 2014, 16:16 PMDarthBong420 @ Katitof you say don't live in the past with old patches, but, in the same reply talk about the elephant and tiger ace being op in previous patches. Also complaining about the elephant is pointless without admitting it is the same issue as Germans players have with the ISU. Double standards much? If you'd manage to get to the end of that line you'd noticed that I said that it does not matter at all what used to be, because only present matters. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: ISU-15226 Apr 2014, 15:48 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Apr 2014, 15:07 PMthe_onion_man Katitof, first of all your attitude is a little rich. My personality is also quite rich hur hurr There was a good period when conspam was just about unbeatable, and Shocks were basically invincible terminator squads. The March Deployment that Soviet players looooooove to complain about was specifically directed at the fact that the game mechanics rewarded blobbing and charging into entrenched positions (== Soviet mid and late game). Have we already forgotten? There was also a good period when TA was batshit OP, instant vet3 spam, MGs were unflankable unless you attacked it from all directions, gren killed everything and anything, P4 had similar impact to IS-2, 4 minute FHT with tank durability and KV-8 firepower, starfe spam with opels on fuel points, pgren blobbing and so on and so forth. Have you forgotten? But more importantly, how does that impact current balance in any way? Its not past anymore, it doesn't matter what we had 4 days ago and you say that things that happened months ago are some kind of excuse or justification. You didn't played soviets in match deployment, did you? There was a lot of complaining, because it was just. Germans had all the advantages, better infantry, better tanks, everyone sane acknowledged that, devs and their statistics including. Both factions blobbed and neither can do so now, I don't really see what your point is. Balance happens, things change, adapt. Don't live in the past or you will always have something to complain about. Factions are pretty equal now with minor things to adjust, but neither is unbeatable in any stage of the game anymore. Second, you still haven't gotten past the two wrongs make a right school of thought. Is there anybody here defending the Tiger Ace? I play both factions, I thought it was BS when it first rolled out... and your point is what, exactly? You're going in circles here chasing your own tail. I have no idea what point you're trying to make. People complained about elephant since forever and it was buffed even harder. Now ISU is on its level of impact and it suddenly is a problem? Finally, the problem is not that you can't attack an ISU from the front with armor. The problem is that you can't attack an ISU from the front with armor OR infantry, and it can 1-shot a pak from beyond the pak's range. The Elefant does not have those characteristics, and the OPness of the initial TA is completely beside the point, for God's sake it's been nerfed for longer than it was OP. So flank it? Elephant also can't be attacked frontally, because infantry will do nothing to it and vehicles will blow up. Stop thinking that you can just a-move head on against soviet heavies, these is past, keep up with the present. Scout, flank, ambush. If that still doesn't give you the picture of what you need to do, then go build an elephant and see what soviets do in response, then do exactly the same against ISU. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: ISU-15226 Apr 2014, 14:52 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Apr 2014, 14:43 PMCardboard Tank So the new gameplay of Germans is to only go for the two Elefant doctrines now? Cool. Totally not boring. The coolest thing however is seeing the guys crying the loudest about the evil Tiger Ace being totally okay with a Russian super unit that can wipe squads and tanks alike. Every decent player will park it behind the front line, wiping every unit that tries to come close with few shots. The Elefant can only fight tanks - and even then it misses half its shots. The ISU is great at fighting both. Oh, didn't knew the soviet meta is only about 2 doctrines with ISU. Hypocrisy and double standards much? And speaking of double standards, you could a-move tiger ace into opponents base and forget it, it still would win you the game. Try that with ISU and post a rep, I dare you. You don't have arty? You don't have reckons? Flanks impossible? Mines? You know what sweepers are? You know they can go together with your other units. Quit bitching and learn to play, soviet heavies now have a huge impact, just like german heavies, would you attack Elephant frontally with armor? Then why do you believe you should be able to attack ISU frontally? You have shitload of ways to deal with it, but all you want to do is a-move over it. Well, these days are over, time to adapt, use micro, flanks and combined arms, just like soviets always did. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: ISU-15226 Apr 2014, 14:29 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Apr 2014, 14:22 PMKronosaur0s You obviously havent seen my replay which I show my only 1 elefant in the game get vet 3 killing 5 ISU152 and 3 T34/85 from skilled Soviet players (StC). Seriously, stop underestimating the glorious elefant. If its used in the right hands, it becomes hell for soviet players. +1. This thread is classic "grass is greener on the other side" case. There is a reason why soviets complained about ele since release. This patch made it easier to kill flanked elephant, flanking elephant is still impossible if you know how to play and Ele will effortlessly wreck ISU. Having to get heavy tank destroyer to be able to fight heavy assault gun frontally? I see nothing wrong with it. Flank it and its scrap metal. In: COH2 Balance

Give it 15+ seconds reload all you want. Then expect overgrown, more durable and much more clumsy panther with 160dmg, huge penetration and moderate/low AI damage. In: COH2 Gameplay
