Thread: Ostheer Sniper overperforming7 Sep 2015, 17:36 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Sep 2015, 14:36 PMNabarxos the sniper needs a durability nerf not a RoF nerf,its durability is BETTER then that of a soviet sniper. i think this would help ALOT to counter it cause i cant express how manytimes have i flanked Ost Snipers and gets away with half or full health from shock troop/consript/guard/penal flanks or riflemen flanks. right now the Ost sniper outperforms in every way the soviet sniper nerf that and its fixed I agree he and brit sniper should both get a slight (or maybe not so slight) nerf to RA to compensate for the increased hp. Decreasing the HP is imo problematic because otherwise explosives + less than 80 hp snipers = RNG mess In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Ostheer Sniper overperforming7 Sep 2015, 16:52 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Sep 2015, 15:27 PMVon Sturm This thread going in a dumb direction. The main problem is not snipers but the 4 squad poor desing. Ost experiencing the same shit against soviet until 222 comes. Put the sniper T2 ? What a joke or give him anti-tank capacity like the brits one. At this moment, the only way for brits to counter early sniper is flame carrier. However, keep in mind that snipers are allin start for soviet/ost. It can give you strong avantage vs inf but any lose is a 360 MP pain in the ass and compromising map control. Thats exactly what I mean. This messing around of squad sizes in between factions is messing up the game Mind you this is exactly why I support squad size standardization between axis/allies In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Bofors needs a nerf against infantry7 Sep 2015, 14:30 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Sep 2015, 13:29 PMKatitof Its AI is getting justifiably nerfed, its AT is fine, it won't be killing any medium armor, unless you drive up to it with low hp and exposed rear. Light armor melts to 40mm AA guns of both axis and allies. +1 In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Ostheer Sniper overperforming7 Sep 2015, 14:17 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Sep 2015, 11:23 AMFiresparks Better have a back up plan, because I don't think coh2 target table is going to work that way. COH1 target table doesn't allow for different ROF against different target. The closest thing is Penetration and accuracy, but that's far too rng. Already do, and in two flavours: 1) The ideal (long term plan): Standardize the squad sizes across axis and allied factions. This includes weapon crews. Make it 6 man squads for allies. 4 man (or 5 -I've read that 4 man are vulnerable to AoE wipes a lot) for axis.Adjust DPS/RA values accordingly. I call this long-term because more dev time will be needed; but its ideal because then a lot of other imbalances can/will also be accounted for. Take the ost mortar for instance. The devs increased its RoF because otherwise we had 2 mortars but one was firing at 4 man squads, the other at 6 man squads. WFA obviously screwed a lot with that mechanic cause rifles were 5 man (not 6 like sovs) yet ost mortar performance went unattended. Its the release of the 4 man brits and the recent AoE changes that have made it way too much. Ost sniper RoF should be nerfed asap though, even as a stepping stone to this because clearly, the current situation is untenable. 2) The short term: nerf ost sniper RoF across the board but don't touch squad sizes. I must stress that this is pretty much a half baked solution because it (indirectly) is worse for the ost/sov balance. Particularly regarding ost sniper vs sov weapon crews which he's (arguably) supposed to hard counter. Its why I favour target table RoF adjustment, if it can happen. In: COH2 Balance

Take of your bias against me for a moment and see arguments, not what you want to see. Follow up on your logic, you must be pretty damn upset about ost turbomortar nerf. Ost never relied on snipers vs sov and they never will, mortars and HMGs were always superior choices. I freely admit to being biased. I am biased against all fanboys. But you man, I expect better of you. You've been around since the release and are STILL the same. So I guess I just get, idk, disappointed. Not that you ought to care one whit (and I mean that sincerely) but since you raised it, I thought I ought to clarify. OT I'm actually quite happy about ost mortar nerf ty. I made several posts to that effect in the Wehrmacht mortar thread. And I did see the argument. I think I gave you a valid counter. And as far as ost never relying on snipers vs soviets? Really? Its arguably the best early game unit vs sov tier 2 and shocks. But I digress. I'm not trying to hold a strategy discussion with you. Here's the heart of the issue: The only difference between what I proposed (Target table rof adjustments to ost/sov snipers vs rifles & tommies/volks instead of a general RoF adjustment) is that that way ost balance vs sov weapon crews and squads doesn't suffer, and UKF and Brits don't have to worry so much about ost sniper. Everyone wins. But you're still against it? So really, what exactly is your problem with it? In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Why brits are so lame in 1v17 Sep 2015, 08:40 AM Jump back to quoted post7 Sep 2015, 08:34 AMFiresparks my guess would be to make the vet 3 weaker and prevent bren blob. it would be fine if the tommies didn't take 35 mp to reinforcement. i agree they should absolutely not take 35 mp to reinforce. Way I see it, they have the best vet bonuses and RA in exchange for heavy maintenance (bleed) but decent cost (compare them to USF rifles). The cover bonus and 25% moving acc is just to reinforce brit defensive play. So the designer logic here is probably to keep their cost high by increasing the reinforce cost. That model has obviously failed. So why not just increase base cost and reduce reinforce? Maybe up the cost to 300-320 and decrease reinforce to 30? Pay 40 mp more now but save (assuming 15 casualties) 75 mp over game course? So net increase of 35mp per squad. Will that be enough? The values aren't the important bit, i'm trying to get across the concept. In: COH2 Balance
