Thread: Conscripts need mid-game buff16 Jul 2015, 10:04 AM I think they should get a universal PPSH upgrade and buff its range to mid like PG's and give a slight damage nerf to compensate if its too strong. And have the commander that have the upgrade make it cheaper to upgrade or something. That or DP's. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: About the next patch. T70s are coming! 15 Jul 2015, 02:11 AM The way I see it, 222 isn't comparable to t70, stuart, M5 or luchs in any way. Ostwind is probably the closest to these as it comes in t3 and preforms the same role though heavier. 222 should be compared to the scoutcar, m20, WC51 or Kubel. They all have a very limited window to operate. Just how the ostwind is slightly heavier than light tanks, 222 is just a stronger scout car, not a light tank. It's job is to deal with non-AT inf not light tanks. If you want to deal with those you go Ostwind, p4 or schrek with pak support and mines. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Idea how to repair industry...15 Jul 2015, 01:16 AM I think if they reduced the manpower/fuel conversion a bit and buffed the kv2 the doctrine would be fine. It would make it less extreme but still maintain an advantage over your opponents. The setup time of the KV2 is abysmal and way too long which puts it in a awkward spot, especially in the face of cas. If they reduced the KV2 setup/packup time a little, it would be a pretty good arty piece. I think 3-4 seconds is probably enough. If I remember correctly, currently its around 7 seconds? In: Lobby
Thread: Heavy Tank Limit30 Jun 2015, 01:07 AM Jump back to quoted post29 Jun 2015, 23:55 PMNapalm The solution we have now is total fail. Why are we taking a choice away from the players? All options should be available to a player after they have weighed the pros and cons of their decision. This heavy tank limit doesn't even affect all Factions equally. Again, good idea...bad implementation. Want to get your two heavy tanks? Its going to cost you more then just resources but a good part of your pop cap as well. Hmm, maybe instead of hitting the popcap, calling in a heavy-tank could impact your resources quite heavily, kinda like Tiger Ace. If you call in a heavy tank it could reduce your income by 15-25 % on both manpower and fuel (normal call-in costs would still apply). This would be in addition to upkeep. This would probably drain you so much it would be damn hard to keep an army going if you have 2 heavies. Which is the risk you would have to take. On top of that you could make it so that reparing tanks cost fuel if that's not enough. Then the hard limit is gone but there is a huge long term risk of fielding more than one. Resource starved while you have them and after losing them you probably don't have much money in the bank. My only problem with limiting popcap is that it is already streched thin. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Heavy Tank Limit29 Jun 2015, 12:08 PM Even if a OKW player can only summon a KT and JT toghether under a blood moon with all the planets aligned, it's still a option which the other team under the same circumstances won't have access to. Limiting it to 1 heavy for OKW as well would only affect the modes where this is possible, which is long matches of 3v3 and 4v4. I have played games where this has been a tie breaker in long and drawn out matches. I'm not concerned with matches that are a steamroll for either side, but rather when they are even and go well beyond 30-40 mins. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Cynthia statement about the first 2015 stream20 Jan 2015, 10:28 AM Actually the main statement I took issue with is the one comparing the design decision for soviets inability to access AA and... Zerg egg hatch? wot? Wouldn't spore crawler be a better comparison? If anything in Heart of the swarm Blizzard actually changed the tech requirements of the spore crawler to compete against new air harass units. =P To say soviets should by design be weak against planes when certain air abilities can shut down an entire inf army is just silly. =P In: Lobby
