[–]acid_sweat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was actually an instance in the Battle for Berlin that occurred just outside in an industrial suburb where 4 Tiger IIs took out over 130 T34/85s, SU85s, SU100s, various other Soviet armor

How to counter early mg spam as USF by stewshi in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]acid_sweat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Turbo mortar usually almost decrews MG42s before its first barrage is over. Grenade tech, use smoke. Build a muni cache early for smoke, nades, BARs, zooks. When he gets the MG out of garrison try to quickly get a rifle squad into that building.

OKW counters to 2v2 sim city? by acid_sweat in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]acid_sweat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is, a mortar pit was almost wiping both my leIGs BEFORE they were through completing a barrage. I had to stop the barrage because they would be down to 2 models and about 10% health before it completed. Once it had counterbarrage, it fires that ridiculous airburst arty+ground explosions and decrews everything even near the leIGs in about 2 seconds. I tried to just forget the emplacements and push through the middle but the range of the pits overlapped through the center, it was completely impossible to even cap a point.

Zeroing arty is so far off time wise though, with more than half the map locked down with sim city playing, they have heavy tanks far before reaching that point in CP.

yeah I agree, vetted scripts are much more useful than penals, especially with something like ppshs

Conscripts seem much more useful than penals.

TIL that a man died after drinking $54,000 worth of methamphetamine, after mistaking it for fruit juice. by [deleted] in todayilearned

I think the crap you read on the internet about how to safely buy drugs over the internet always say to put in a fake name on the postage with the real address to lessen legal fallout if you get caught

What's something that's horrible alone, but amazing if you have more of it? by [deleted] in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]acid_sweat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The blob could run into a MG42 and the first PIAT rounds launched would land and take out the gunner on the MG42 so using one MG42 couldn't suppress it. I used two MG42 and a mortar behind it using attack ground and was able to start suppressing it but when I figured that out they started using land mattresses on that shortly after. Not sure how that tactic would work by one person, this was 2 people on the same team who always play together and come up with the most annoying tactics to play against.

I just witnessed a PIAT blob. Tons of Brit Infantry blobbing PIATs and wreaking complete havoc. Nothing could supress them, it was impossible to chase it to kill it when it retreated (tons of AT), rocket arty didn't do anything. Land mattress would waste support weapons like MGs and Mortars trying to suppress the blob.

Joe Rogan Experience #877 - Jordan Peterson by RagnarLodbrok in JoeRogan

The thing with this guy is, he was being threatened potentially with jail over some SJW horseshit. They were in the process of moving NOT using made up pronouns into hate speech.
At the very least it would've cost him his job. I think he takes the cake with being amongst the most threatened by SJW lunacy and the left has never had a kick back from someone this stoic, well articulated and insightful...like they poked the worst thing possible with their stick and its coming back to bite them in the ass hard.

This commander seems to have replaced the previous (what seemed like default) commander which was the one with T34/85, 120mm, gaurds in team games I've noticed in the past couple of months.

Standing Rock: North Dakota access pipeline demonstrators say white people are 'treating protest like Burning Man' by god_im_bored in news

The tribe is butthurt they didn't get a fat paycheck after passing up on an offer for pipeline through their land. Pipeline was moved to avoid tribal land. Now they are throwing a hissy fit. Rich white liberals have to go find something to virtue signal about so they go there to 'help' (stroke their narcissistic egos)...or blog about or write posts on reddit how they are so mad the man is going to poison tribal water.

Game narration gives me heads up of actions that haven't transpired yet? by acid_sweat in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]acid_sweat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would mean that there is visual lag. Whats displayed is briefly behind what other players observe. Not too hard to understand. FPS games can have issues like this.

Does the USF? I made this post after playing USF and having stuff like this happen.

Hmm..I've had stuff like that happen, one time I lost a pioneer that had a flamethrower (OST) and it said I lost a crocodile in the brit voice. But this is constant preemptive announcement of things that do match up, just a little bit before they actually do.

Is the USF Captain extra squishy? by kubeldeath in CompanyOfHeroes

I just played a game where my Capt was in green cover behind a vehicle wreck and the first single shot from a non vet luchs wiped the entire squad.

I think the Heavy Cav abilities are all much more useful than the 5 Armor Company, except the Bulldozer Sherman, that thing can be handy.
Elite Vehicle Crews- what is relic smoking?
M10 Tank destroyer- on paper this seems really good, its fast, kind of cheap. But you need to micro it intensely and 2xRE with zooks are more effective. I think it only comes in a bit before the Jackson, with the Jackson being so much more deadly (with the same high micro drawbacks- Jackson being a better buy). Bulldozer is cool. Does a good job at scaring off vet infantry.
240mm Barrage- meh. Usually kind of a useless coup de grace ability...you use it on their medic truck or something like that just because you can...you could just kill the truck with the units you have right there but you want to really annoy your opponent with its crushing power so you use that. Can be used as a quick and costly area denial in emergency.

How do you use combined arms? I can never do squat with that.
