    What happened to my precious Osttruppen

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 11:46 AM PDT

    Hey there,

    havent played for a while- always played Osttruppen online. My standard build was to just skip the first wehrmacht base, which was like, the only point to use osttruppen at all.

    So now they apparently changed it so you have to build barracks and recruit them there (WTF?).

    So, my question is: are they even worth anything now, since you can just build grens anyway? I mean Osttruppen got nerfed in their stats with cover fire etc as well, so they really appear useless now.

    What's the state of balance?

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 03:33 PM PDT

    I'm looking at getting back into this, I payed a few years ago up to ~200h or so, mostly on OKW and Brits. Just wondering what the balance is like - is there anyone that is at a massive disadvantage or vice versa atm? I don't have anywhere near as much time as I used to due to work nowadays so basically don't want to waste a week or so getting familiar with a faction to realise they are weak at the moment.

    Apologies if this is something that gets asked a lot, I did try and search this before posting! Sorry forgot to mention, talking about 1v1.

    Protecting MGs early

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 08:19 PM PDT

    I feel like I have an issue early game where as wehrmacht, I'll slap down an MG, try to cover it with one or two infantry, then multiple players will assail my position and I just need to completely cede my position. What's the best way to deal with this? How conservatively and how aggressively should I place my MGs early on when it's difficult to hold if I'm unlucky and multiple players decide to swoop in on me?

    Invincible stuart?? Ardennes Assault tank grab

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 09:30 AM PDT

    I'm one of the newbies that first got the game on the free weekend, although i did purchase all of the add ons after playing a bit.

    So after realizing the airborne company has been glitched in ardennes assault and you can't get snipers, i restarted with the support company, mech, and rangers. Rangers are op, just ran over everything. Cool.

    But, there was the one engagement where you only reduced enemy points by getting kills with vehicles. I was using the support company, with the combat engineers. Ze Germans™ captured a stuart early on. It killed the stuart i had captured. Then it killed a panzer. Then it took on 2 stuarts and won. So i sent a Blob of bazooka infantry along with 3 tanks at it. Disabled main gun. Disabled tracks. Dead in the water. Rockets and tanks hitting it non stop. Health bar went down to about 15% and stayed there.

    I won the encounter but that stuart never died.

    Help! How do I get cross platform to work?

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 03:17 PM PDT

    Wanting to play with a friend who has COH2 on the Xbox Game pass, while I have it on Steam. It keeps saying that the steam users have mods installed but after thoroughly clearing out all of our mods we still couldn't get past this. It says we have mods installed when we don't and I am floored.

    Can the windows store version of coh2 be modded?

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 07:12 AM PDT

    So, I got this game recently from PC Gamepass to try it out and although I find it really fun, I wanted to download a mod for increased unit cap and maybe new/different commanders. I was able to manually get a steam mod as a zip file and have no idea where to put it in the game folder. Any help would be appreciated.

    Question about balance (attention: much whining ahead)

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 03:22 PM PDT

    So I'm fairly new to the game and mainly play okw and wehr.

    In the few online matches I have played I made the experience that the axis get steamrolled by russians. They just use PTRS Infantry supported with shocktroops and tanks and youre done. I know that there is a counter to everything and its like rock paper scissors. But Guard Rifles with PTRS and Shock Troops are "Spock" then, if you understand my BBT reference. I know that every faction should have their own flavour, but its kinda hard that you need to have designated specialist squads for every role as germans. Like with OKW you need panzerfüsiliers with schrecks to be able to compete vs tanks and volksgrens with stg44s against infantry. I totally dont get why OKW gets their MGs so late, since their basic troops dont offer anything special. Yeah they got the Kübel, but its being shred by normal infantry and you can park it in your corner of the map as soon as the enemy has PTRS. Imho the leIG cant compete with ally mortars in terms of mobility and damage. And if you get pushed you can throw it away.
    Enough whining. Can you guys give me some guide to play OKW? Since I can't imagine spamming sturmpios to be able to rush and upgrade them all to have the one schreck, because i think they fall off in the midgame. My tactics atm are the follows:

    cap nearest point with sturmpios

    Pick Grand Offensive Doctrine

    build 2x füsiliers and 2x volksgrens

    call halftrack and convert it to light tank building

    build PZII Luchs

    enjoy domination till i run into enemy AT

    Make sad face and hopefully get carried while i try to vet my units

    i usually skip the field hospital building cause i dont like the flak halftrack and the other one. The leig feels underwhelming to me, which makes me skip it but then i miss the support, since i wait so long for my mg.

    are there any meta buildorders?

    An idea regarding ostruppen usage in tandem with grens for more mobile playstyle

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 09:18 AM PDT

    Me use Ost alot, now me want to put me perspecktive into wok :))!

    Ok seriously, i have something for you guys ;))

    When we consider grens with other mainline infs of other factions, it is agreed by most of the comm that grens are a fragile bunch that scale really well into late game. However, many people cant get over the fact that grens are fragile, specially in early game, which cause problems and make people think that grens design philosophy ingame is different from what the flavor text about them implies.

    In my experience, grens are actual professional combatants when you get used to attack move command and when fighting at long-mid range and NOT BEING SHOT AT. The problem lies in the fact that this unit health handicapped itself from reaching its full damage potential, which is why the mg is important, but i would like to put out an alternative.

    Now the whole mp Ost have to spend for the basic early game (1mg + 3grens) is 980. I propose a different build (2grens + 2ostruppen) with an 880 mp price: this early army should be used as 2 small groups, each group consists of 1 grens and 1 ostruppen ( maybe 1 group has the pios, depends on you want more attack angle against mgs are just backcap with them ). The role of ostruppen in each group is as a "detachable shield", you always move these guys in front of the grens/pios, other than that ik you guys know how to utilise ostruppen to the fullest with covers. Grens should stay back and focus on damage dealing while pios should either move about the same level as ostruppen to use their sight advantage to see mg or move in late to flank mg. Plz do note that these "shields" can kill models themselves, get vetted up, and reinforce faster and with a super low price and time, which is just a bunch of toppings on a delicious cake by now.

    What are your opinions on this?

    How exactly does the headshot passive work?

    Posted: 14 Jun 2021 12:29 AM PDT

    Good day,

    as most people here probably know there are certain units with the headshot passive. But i never found out how exactly that one works. I understand that low health models get sniped but how exactly does it trigger. Is it chance based or guaranteed? Can it miss and does cover affect it?

    Couldnt find anything about it online and since i recently started using Jägers and I R Pathfinders myself id be grateful for an explanation.
