Thread: USF Base, why not rotate them in some maps?28 Jul 2014, 01:23 AM I agree that this is an issue. Why not allow placement of the weapons rack at the beginning of the game, as a button above where the commander abilities are possibly? Also, some of the MGs face in useless directions. I think the map maker needs to be able to rotate the entire base or set parameters for its direction. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: State of 2v2 balance?28 Jul 2014, 01:06 AM It really is map dependent. However, Axis still has the late game dominance because of their armor. I mean US has nothing late game frankly once a jagd or KT comes out, you're kind of screwed. Unless you were dominating all game, if you have equal forces and they roll out the heavy shit, US falls apart. VP games tend to last long and the longer it goes the harder it gets for allies, just as in COH1. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Katyusha seriously need a nerf25 Jul 2014, 02:35 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jul 2014, 02:31 AMJHeartless I agree. Games too blobby. No the walking Stuka isn't as good per the cost and it's stats plus it's veterancy per milkacows post. The Kat used to be good. It didn't need to be any stronger than it was a couple of patches ago. I don't think the kat was very good at all, especially not compared to the werfer or zu fuss. Even if it is better than the zu fuss, slightly, zu fuss is still capable of hurting armor better it seems and slams you in one stroke instead of four. If kat is better, it's irrelevant to me because I think the zu fuss is to good too. Like I said, I feel it all is too good, however blobs need to be punished and it was barely enough in that game.

Thread: Katyusha seriously need a nerf25 Jul 2014, 02:15 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jul 2014, 02:11 AMJHeartless Yep blobbing was hard but that didnt prompt the Kats. Check the Bulletin and the Fuel Caches. The whole strat including doctrinal recon over flight was to support the Kats. Edit:Next time put some shock troops in an M3 to counter the Kats. Maybe so, I mean they did just buff the unit so why not? Honestly I am not very good but every game I see is very blobby and the maps seem too small, so it makes perfect sense. They still barely won that game. They got punished for the truck up too close. I wish they would nerf all artillery to be honest. zu fuss is just as good, if in a different way. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Katyusha seriously need a nerf25 Jul 2014, 02:09 AM I watched that replay. Your ally blobbed so hard, what the hell were they supposed to do? You put your truck up way too close to middle and they punished you for it. You even had them and probably could have won at one point I think. Those two (the most he ever had) racked up so many kills because you both resorted to blobbing, and even the katyushas were hardly enough to stop them because your infantry crushed everything else. And still, they barely won that game because you threw infantry at the middle for a really long time. Your ally blobbed too hard at the start and it prompted the katyushas. Did they kick ass? Yes, but you did kill them several times until you stopped building anything else but infantry. If that was against two USF you would have destroyed them I bet. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviets Advanced Warfare Tactics Commander26 Feb 2014, 22:49 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Feb 2014, 15:55 PMBryan http://www.coh2.org/topic/14272/radio-intercept I think Radio intercept has been pretty much covered In relation to the current context of COH2 commanders, I like Stephens idea on the T34-85 adjustment for this commander. An overhaul of the entire system of commanders for both factions would be preferable of course, and again, many threads and posts have covered that. Yeah ok, if they bring back the dual T34/85 ability, I'll quit this game. Stephen's idea sucks. The single call in is one of the few "balance" changes they've made that actually makes sense, and here you are advocating against it. It even costs more for one because of the "opportunity" cost as stated by the balance team. You make me laugh. So is it the radio intercept that's all of a sudden so blatantly OP, or the single more expensive russian panzer IV equivalent? The only, and I mean only thing I'll agree with you on is that the whole doctrine design is awful compared to COH1. There's no shock troopers in this doctrine, which people always complain about. No guards + sniper strat to complain about, no insane IL2 strafing run that people complained about. None of that, but people like you still insist on nerfing everything into the ground - ESPECIALLY since it doesn't contain any of the above things that were all "major" balance issues. It will never be enough I suppose. In: COH2 Balance

Oh get out of here. There is so much hyperbole and double standards and BS on these forums it's ridiculous. They are no way in the same league, you are kidding yourself. In: COH2 Balance

It feels like if the game was perfectly balanced people would still come up with stuff like that only for the sake of nerfing something on the other faction. And this is this kind of thread.
