Add new units to the other factions

Add new units to the other factions

I think we should add new units to the other factions and not take away from the soviets because for once in the history of COH we allies have an army that can match and defeat the armies of the axis....!!

Re: Add new units to the other factions

i thought the pause, and then exclamation points at the end of your paragraph was cute.

But i dont think that is possible.  The Devs stated no changes to the existing factions.

Re: Add new units to the other factions

because if all the axis keep complaining about how unfair the soviets are then they will keep making it harder to be soviets which is unfair to my way of thinking.... >:(

Re: Add new units to the other factions

you dont add to the other factions when a faction is unbalanced, you alter the faction thats unbalanced, and thats what they've done, and they've become more fair now.

Re: Add new units to the other factions

why cant you add some new units to the american faction tank wise???? it would be a lot more fair....because soviets are better than axis in tanks and better than PE in inf. so everyone will want to be soviet im tellin ya....!!

Neither of those are true. Vet 1 panther will beat an IS-2 1v1

PE storm troopers plow through any of the soviet infantry if you get in close. First squad or 2 you kill, you vet def and tada, no more infantry problems. 

Plus, how would buffing the allies be more fair if the soviet tanks and inf were "better"?

Not when they're vettet and PE vets faster against soviets than against any other faction because of the infantry slaughter.

Re: Add new units to the other factions

any panther that is Vet is equal to or greater than the IS-2, an unvet panther is probably worse than IS-2, but 1 vet or above the Panther has the advantage.

Soviet infantry is only good in mass numbers and even guards get destroyed when they fight anything besides infantry and light armor.

Against Soviets, I think vetting 2 offensive and 1 def is the way to go (where against other armies, I would do that with vehicles and reverse it for infantry).

Re: Add new units to the other factions

Either way this mod was meant to add factions not change anything else. If you want that sort of thing there are mods like Blitzkrieg that do that and mess with doctrines.

Re: Add new units to the other factions

Ok thats differant....I was just talking about an IS-2 and a Panther fresh out of the depot but now your talking about vet panthers :(.....I wonder what a vet IS-2 would do to a panther.....????  :-\ I geuss the Germans will have extra scrap metal HUH??? :-\ :'(

Re: Add new units to the other factions

I think the only time that anything should be added to the original factions is through reward units. And ONLY after the mod is pretty much finished up if the Devs feel like adding something else, as it still kinda sticks with the expansion pack theme.

Like having a Jagdtiger as a reward unit for the Kingtiger, or a Brummbar replacing the StuH etc.

Re: Add new units to the other factions

ya I wish the americans could get some better tanks somehow.... :(that wouuld be ace if they could...I mean everyone has to agree how bad there tanks are...you need like 2 shermans to take out 1 panther.... :-[ or maybe the modifiers could just increase the power of the shermans and hellcats... :)

Re: Add new units to the other factions

i think main factions shouldnt be touched at all. they are as they are, and no changes are needed. not to say how many more new balance problems would that add to coh. relic did a great job so far, so as the devs of ef that are trying to mold russians as best as posssible and to fit them into main-factions basket.

cheers!

Re: Add new units to the other factions

what about the new mod they made were snipers cant do arty strikes anymore.. That was one of best things about their snipers...now they're garbage..their worse than american or whermacht snipers i mean they cant even camo up unless stationary. Their over doing it. 
#25746

Re: Add new units to the other factions


Like 10 squads of soviet snipers running around the field
destroying everything was fair? :)
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity
#25822

Re: Add new units to the other factions

you have to relize that the soviet snipers are extremely inaccurate and cant camo so its very hard to keep them alive....now what is the point of having those snipers if they cant even compare to the other factions? ???

Re: Add new units to the other factions

dont u worry, they do their job well. :)

Re: Add new units to the other factions

From history,dragonov was the most fearsome rifle in that period,and even today,and i doubt about USSR to don't have elite snipers,for such wonderful weapon.

Re: Add new units to the other factions

history doesnt fix mods or change factoins no offence.. >:(maybe you all like axis and dont want your butt kicked but from an all faction player here its not fair ........like i said there over killing it... :( :( :'(

Re: Add new units to the other factions

History don't fix games,but can provide allot of material,who can be very useful to simulate war in time of peace,or in games.

In games with WW2 theme,many many improvements can be done,if someone will watch in the history.

But this problem require allot of time,and memory,and imagination,and skill for adapt something for games...and last but not last=> will/desire,because if this thing don't exist,nothing will be done.

Also anyone who really want to  make something unique entirely from others,will need allot much time,and effort also will be increased,but the result can astonish the world.Some games or mods has done this,but they are very few,and some still can be better.

Who remember this great game?
Propably the next game of relic will be pong, but i'm not sure if they would be able to balance the sides.

Re: Add new units to the other factions

I recommend to be used Sudden Strike 2 as a inspiration for new units,buildings,trenches,bunkers,textures,sounds,effects,and new abilities for units.That game is the king of WW2 strategy games.

Is old,but his number of units and details,for that period of time is amazing.
