Thread: Fix for Blobbing / Rifle Terminators20 Aug 2016, 07:52 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Aug 2016, 07:46 AMmortiferum Oh no mate, ettelbruck is shock troop and 120mm mortar *Now replaced by roaming kill teams of commandos (I mean 3+) + ALO) and/ or 2-3 mortar pit... per player.. in anything above 2v2 xD That just an example Even Rails and Metal can have devastating retreat without FRP, especially if it's mass-blob retreat.

Thread: Fix for Blobbing / Rifle Terminators20 Aug 2016, 07:28 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Aug 2016, 00:41 AMFiresparks the m1919a6 are a lot better than the guard's dp-28. the garand is also far better than the guard's mosin. that dps give dual m1919a6 rifleman the ability to walk over most opposition. You don't even have to look at the soviet. compare the effectiveness of dual m1919a6 to dual bar. The penal have rather "normal" dodging bonus compared to the most extreme example. blob is the easiest and simplest strat to use. it become a problem when the blob have high dps and high dodging bonus. The same way Rifles are a lot better than old ultimate Volks blob FRP is reason behind 3/4 of blobs. Imgaine Ettlebruck Station. Would you blob straight into 2 HMGs if you knew you have to retreat whole way to the base? Nope. But if you do, you gonna lose whole map. Now, if you know you don't have FRP which saves you from dumb moves, you gonna move careful, recon, etc etc becase you know that each mass retreat means 2-3mins out of game. Sure, people will still blob even without FRP but then blobbing will be very punishing for them. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Fix for Blobbing / Rifle Terminators19 Aug 2016, 22:34 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2016, 22:33 PMFiresparks schreck have good anti-vehicle dps, and volks vet were a lot better than they are now. okw blob are a lot less effective now once those veterancy were taken away and the schreck removed. And why we don't have issues with big ultimate Guards-Penals blob for example? Becasue SU lacks of FRP which makes blobbing easier, faster, less punishing. Give SU FRP and you gonna notice insane blobs. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Fix for Blobbing / Rifle Terminators19 Aug 2016, 22:31 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2016, 22:29 PMFiresparks except without the high dps and high RC on a m1919a6, a blob rifleman would just be bleeding themselves on the mg42 if they trying to blob. there's a difference between a blob of death and a blob that bleed the owner. Old Volks-schreck + fusiliers blob lacked of LMGs yet it was the best blob in game. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Fix for Blobbing / Rifle Terminators19 Aug 2016, 22:28 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2016, 22:22 PMFiresparks how is forward retreat point related to blob? the main enabler of blobbing is dual lmg and vet 3 ra bonus, not FRP. the extreme long range dps on a dual lmg combined with the high RA on the vet3 rifleman make cover and unit position trivial, leading to blobbing. Really? It is so so much related. With Mjr retreat point, you don't have to worry about your blob being stopped. Just retreat and 30secs later your blob is on the frontline again. You dont lose map presence by bad micro. Without FRPs you know, your whole army will be out of the field for like 2-3mins which is huge lose of map presence -> map control and it's truly punishing. OKW doesnt have access to dual LMGs yet they blob as well mostly. Why? Becasue of FHQ, becasue blobbing is not that punishing since you can retreat without losing map presence. In: COH2 Balance

For 3v3 and 4v4 removing FRPs is even bigger advantage. Each insta reatring blob is going to stay out of battle for like a 2-3 minutes. In: COH2 Balance

Few nades, mortars and ezy win as USF. As OKW, it's aleady there (maxim) and yet OKW can deal with it.= without FHQ In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Fixing blob and random wipe19 Aug 2016, 17:33 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2016, 16:59 PMStug life you really don't want to get it right ? A tank shell tend to over shot so although the green halve the damage it still 80 and if clumped up the squad will die And explain me, what is wrong with wiping clumped squad? It's obvious that using cover makes a squad clumped ergo easier to wipe. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Schwerer Flak Truck Balance ideas19 Aug 2016, 17:30 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Aug 2016, 17:15 PMvietnamabc I would prefer if OKW got standard teching instead of all the goodies and resulting in weird unit placements like now. No other faction got changed drastically as OKW since beta. I guess we all would love to see standard teching for all factions from standard units to mid game units and final tier with best units but lelic In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Fix for Blobbing / Rifle Terminators19 Aug 2016, 16:12 PM Remove FRPs from USF, OKW and Brits. . . . . No more blobs problems. Simplest solutions are the best In: COH2 Balance
