Except the brit player doesn't have superior mainline infantry. Struggling vs brits without a carrier early on is a L2p issue. Volks+Sturm do fine. The problem is that they require early aggression which is something most people are really bad at so there is this myth about brits walking over OKW in the early game.
This is the first time I have heard someone say OKW is hard for people to learn. Do you mind clarifying what you mean by early aggression? |
Wait till you find out about Guards. |
Again, invest for rak, UKF paid 260 mp + 5 fuel + 60 muni for UC. Just kill it with rak. Even if UKF did not go for AEC, it's their lose.
OKW saying "I don't wanna pay rat just to kill UC" is a 100% pure whining
60% chance to hit (0.04*15=0.6), and that's at far range, meaning that chances are higher the closer rack is to Carrier. So it makes UC's movements problematic and its transition into static green cover a matter of time. Also it is very rare for UC to be unscratched and if it loses 80 HP to small arms, HMG or ate a faust - 1 shot is enough to finish it.
You guys are missing the point. The point is that even if the UKF player does invest into a UC he will still have equal or superior mainline infantry presence because of the starting section that makes the Rak investment not worth it. Depending on how the fight is chosen, Volks and Sections are either equal or Volks get dumpstered, but never the other way around. Sometimes this isn't a problem if the OKW player can utilize his Sturms effectively, but when that's not possible it becomes a huge problem for him.

only a small fraction of forum boys want early war stuff.
the majority wants the famous tanks.
The fault isnt at Relic
I hardly believe forum boys gave 2 shits about StuGs and the Ostwind, or the Luchs and the Puma. If Relic puts it in the game people will come to appreciate it. |
you, my friend, sound like you only played coh2
Either its some sort of typo, or Wehr in CoH3 are going to be using the Flak88 instead of the Pak-40 in the final game (At least in some campaign missions). Guess we'll have to wait and see.
EDIT: Alternately it could be intended to be the PAK-43, which is also 88mm. Really no way to tell at this stage.
Ok, but it looks NOTHING like a Pak43, not to mention its impossible to move one by hand or horse. |
What is more annoying than the Black Prince is how Relic stays wedded to this retarded notion that Panzergrenadiers all used StGs and that Jagers were all crackshot marskmen. Even more annoying is that Stosstruppen use LMGs and Kars despite the fact that they are literally shock troops by name. A more suitable switcharound would be giving Stosstruppen StGs or MP40s and giving Panzergrenadiers the MG42 and the Kars (so just renaming the units).
At the very least I hope they can make the weapon DPS profiles realistic this time (mid range StGs and long range G43s, not the crap we have right now in CoH2). |
So does anyone know what the fuck the 88mm anti-tank gun is supposed to be? It's literally a PaK40. |
The Achilles being able to bounce a Panther round because it has an additional tank track welded to its front is still more realistic than BP being a thing : p (but yea ... it being a generalist heavy would be too much. But a bit stronger frontal armor would be ok I guess)
They should just make it a Jackson clone for the British, but that would also interfere with the role of the Comet (if they were to implement it realistically and not as the dumb brawler we have right now). |
Thread: Nashorn 21 Jul 2021, 21:23 PM
The Nashorn was already part of the trailers.
So i think the Nashorn is "confirmed" (and u need it for any Anzio themed map/campaign/story - schwere Panzerjäger-Abteilung 525)
Ah, excellent news. I was not aware they were already featured. |
Relics aversion to P3 or generally early war tanks is matched only by their fetish-like lust for P5 and P6.
This. You forgot the PIV though. |
