Thread: Why do S mines have signs?13 Nov 2015, 09:13 AM Jump back to quoted post13 Nov 2015, 07:59 AMferwiner It's not that easy. Every 15 muni sector of s-mines is 4 mines. Whole minefield is 16 mines. For 60 muni, that's quite a lot isn't it? To build 4 mines as any other faction you need 120 muni. That is more than a demo. That basically means its not either optimal or affordable, so nobody does it. If you saw my earlier post I mentioned how it's cheaper but the tradeoff is lack of AT capability In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Why do S mines have signs?13 Nov 2015, 02:49 AM Jump back to quoted post12 Nov 2015, 20:03 PMferwiner Wait, so what you are saying is that mines should wipe? Like what? Especially 15 muni mines? Man come on, one wipe is a loss in every single equal matchup. There is no way any mines should wipe full health squads, especially spammable cheap mines that cover huge are so it is harder to miss them... No no you misunderstood me. I said that all factions' mines will wipe if you make a field of 4 in a square (like the s mines) and someone keeps running on them i.e. keeps running in the minefield AFTER the first explosion or they are in the retreat path. Basically I was countering someone else who said 'well s mines have better wipe chances'. I'm not in favour of random wipes plz In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW Panther vs UKF Comet12 Nov 2015, 19:16 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Nov 2015, 19:13 PMButcher In case you were referring to me: The StuG gets -10% and -30% reload on vet2 and 3. Apply that to the already higher rof and you have an incredible damage output. Versus Brits and their Churchills/ Comets the StuG is way more attractive. +1. Only circumstance where that doesn't work is when a FF is right behind the churchill, cause of that 60 range advantage it can fire at StuG while StuG fires at churchill. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Back after break12 Nov 2015, 17:39 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Nov 2015, 17:32 PMVuther And here I happened to think "I haven't seen that guy in a while" about an hour ago Rifle Company be pretty horrendously broken due to vet 3 rifles having a large received accuracy bonus (put in place to alleviate the manpower bleed woes of the USF) and flamethrower changes. Pack Howitzer is now also pretty bad due to suppressing or even pinning in one good shot along with better lethality. UKF Infantry Sections are also definitely overperforming with just about everything being superior to Grens aside from initial cost (yes, that means their reinforcement cost is lower than Grens) and the difference of Faust and grenades. Their emplacements definitely suck though. OKW not doing great aside from ISG being also kinda broken like the Pack Howi, which accordingly is what most OKW players will be relying on. PFs, JLI and JPIV tend to be also what they rely on as well, though they aren't the kinda broken things that ISG is. (also, key usage change: Pack Howi and ISG were nerfed by having them not autoface toward enemies, you gotta do that yourself like an AT gun) Wehr mostly the same aside from suffering from fighting USF and UKF. Soviets too. Pretty much what everyone else is saying. I'll just add this: Idk if you know this yet but su76s are the best soviet TDs now. Mostly came to say welcome back! In: Lobby

While muni doesn't affect teching, both fuel and mp does. I know and I agree with you. However it's hard to know exactly where to place it in the model. I mean someone could, theoretically, get healing after building all their first tank. Stupid move yeah but it could happen. If you have ideas I'm open for the placement of healing costs. I have put them down in the sheet now though. Not added them to costs, but they are there now In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Tech cost guide12 Nov 2015, 16:52 PM Added healing costs now. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Tech cost guide12 Nov 2015, 15:51 PM Ok I'll add in healing costs but won't add them to the net teching costs. Can't hurt In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Tech cost guide12 Nov 2015, 15:45 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Nov 2015, 15:30 PMelchino7 I'll add as upgrades: OH: bunker + medics USF: ambulance SU: medics UKF: MAYBE the medkit upgrade but that doesn't affect teching I didn't include healing as that's pretty subjective. And factoring munitions costs is pointless cause munitions don't have predictable expenditure patterns unlike fuel and mp. (I.e. cannot equate munitions to time unlike fuel and mp) if enough members agree though I will add in these costs but then there will be complaints of distortion. The idea is you can use this to figure out windows of time by comparison of the 'first' unit costs e.g. UKF can build first centaur before first stug by skipping all upgrades. The difference is approx. 20-30 fuel. So translates to a approx. 1 minute stug-free window and hence plan accordingly. Planning on P4 while UKF skips all upgrades is a bad idea cause the fuel difference goes up to 60ish so 3 minute window roughly. Conversely if UKF goes all upgrades you can see that ost player can comfortably get P4 by the time centaur or cromwell are built. That sort of thing. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: OKW Panther vs UKF Comet12 Nov 2015, 15:37 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Nov 2015, 14:10 PMpR1sm Hello there, For the record, i have been playing coh 1 since 2008 being constant top 100 2on2 and have 1 month in coh2 so far with a positive winrate. In one of my first coh2 games, my freshly built panther lost to a full-hp comet in a 1on1 without any inteference from other units, all shots against each tanks front. fair and square. was quite shocked. recently i remembered that particular fight and found a website which contains the stats for the british units: OKW Panther (dedicated AT-Tank): Cost(effectively) 490/232 HP 800 Armor 320 Penetration 260/240/220 Damage 160 Cooldown-Average 7.38 sec Range 50 UKF Comet (AI as well as AT capabilities): Cost(effectively 500/185 HP 800 Armor 290 Penetration 240/220/200 Damage 160 Cooldown-Average 6.32 sec <==== Range 50 Can anybody explain to me in non-"lelic" terms how the panther, a dedicated AT tank without any AI capabilites except for crushing, can perfectly well loose to an non-AT unit that deals good damage to infantry and is even almost 50 fuel cheaper? they have the same range as well, so you can't even kite the comet. how are people complaining about vet 3 rifle blobs (granted, they are slightly OP) but not lamenting this fact? Unit A, supposed to counter Units like B, has a more than moderate chance of losing to B, which is supposed to be only decent against units like A and B while being far cheaper. what the hell the same problem also exists between the OST panther and the comet, but with the cost difference being sliiiiightly in the panthers favor at 10/10. the fundamental problem persits even in that case though. its like a sherman or cromwell winning against a jagdpanzer 4 at long range I can understand you are frustrated but what you have described is really the result of rng going against you. 1 on 1 things like this can happen. The panther is generally superior to the comet AT wise and usually wins. Try 3 panthers vs 3 comets in cheat mode or something and you will see what I mean In: COH2 Balance
