M10 is now officially F1 racing car

I like your videos, keep on truckin. That video where you made an ad for an anime body pillow was great too. The first videos on your channel where you film yourself going to Relic HQ or living in Japan are pretty comfy too.

Great analysis mate thanks for taking the time to actually go through the stuff. Glad to see someone keeping the coh 2 community alive and thriving 💯💯💯🙏🙏🙏

Great video! Amazing recap of all the little and not so little changes. Thank you

I still learning to play this game and I like watching all of your analysis. Thanks, Hans.

Thanks for putting this together Hans!

Excellent presentation! Thank you so much for it!

Finally the video we all needed Thanks hans

I don't know English very well, but with you showing the new things in game help me a lot

it's amazing how it still patches after all these years.

Great job Hans, Ty for this video.. Lots of thing changed not just commanders 👍👍👏👏👏

Second ! XD Can't wait to see your opinion on the changes, maybe I learn something useful about new abilities for the OKW faction.

Thanks for the overview. One change that could have been included though is the changes in IL-2 attacks apart from rocket run, as some commanders got switched from strafe to loiter or the other way round and strafe got buffed. Also, Soviet bunkers...

thank you man, really helpful

Thanks for the video Hans!

Great video Hans, thank you

amazing video big thanks

Great video!

Soviets' Reserves is probably the most versatile commander, now: On a small map, he can turn several units of combat engineers into actual fighting units, especially with one (1!) well placed mortar team: Barbed wire snake pits make the enemy get into view, turn 180, and stay in the zone of the mortar; CE's flamer ignores cover; commissar's defence lets your CEs stay in the fight and healing (while it does cause blob) gives the CEs the kick to push, which incidentally the mortar will have cleared the way for, removing the barbed wire as it pounded the poor suckers caught in it. On a medium sized map, if your commissar/cheap inf/snake pit KZs worked, and you're now pushing, drop a team weapon *behind* your troops: At the first sign of resistance, you make a controlled retreat and pick up the relevant weapon: Tanks can't pick up weapons, and a HMG will not let infantry do it. You're delaying the point where you have to choose, giving yourself options to hold while reinforcements make their way. No matter which size of map, Rapid Conscription is the only way I know of which lets the Soviets turn other resources into manpower: Used to the minimum "Yeah, I made it happen" efficiency, it turns 90 manpower and 90 munitions into 240 manpower, in a way that disregards max pop. You think you spam conscripts? Spam conscripts with mobilize reserves and assault from everywhere with reserves mobilizing. For 90 seconds game time, if you don't lose whole units, losing individual troops cost you nothing, and every 6 losses actually gives you an additional 1 max pop. Yes, it means you can't reinforce while you're over the cap, but there's always a noob to sack for the guys with stars... On a sour note, the ML-20 is the exact opposite of what this commander otherwise does: Reserves is a mobility focused commander. I think Mark Vehicle would be most in key, but I would take anything, that is ANYTHING, which isn't stuck killable on the map, instead.

The ''For the Fatherland'' ability is not a new ability, it has just been added to the Fortifications commander on the OKW, but some other commander has it as well

Guys today i launched game and had this problem do anyone know how to fix it? The various company logos are a slideshow Sounds play normally The Game's logo "Company of Heroes 2" screen is stuck Menu doesn't load up at all, instead the forementioned screen is left

a good buff to partisans would be to allow them to upgrade their weapons in enemy territory.

concrete bunkers are now with replanish units greats I build them like 6 for map and my units replanish fast dont have to retreat

In my opinion, abilities like Stuka strafing run or P47 strafing run work best when used on team weapons. I often get a full wipe either on MGs or anti-tank guns, especially with P47 strafe. Spending 120 muni in that case isn't that painful.

Can i combine jagditiger with a building. I can already feel how OP that is

The assault guards seem to throw their 6 grenades much faster than the OKW infinltration nades, much more effective.

Do the regular infantry section bulletins effect the new raiding squad?

Balance team be like: No one is using the partisans... Lets nerf them even more!

Could've done the video later. Maybe together with the next patch. 2 flies with one hit...

any further video for the united states forces tutorial ?

Tbh I don't see the point of the new 120mm mortar ability - looks like a ground attack order that can be more easily dodged

Does the forward ressuply station buffs reload of the mortar HT?

Almost all changes are nice in my opinion. I'm enjoying this commander rework

I know it's a layering game by now, but couldn't the developers arrange to put together a Japanese faction for the last time and a few tracks belonging to it?

the sad thing is, most of these commanders will impact the team play scene since all 1v1 games usually are reliant on the op doctrines. Like ostheer heavy bombing run for 250ammo? any outpost? Gone... vs allied anti emplacements IE, 240mm barrage for 200 ammo. Maybe a third hp off an outpost. or vs vehicles, rng if it wants to hit since its in a large radius

It's funny how obviously they didn't get to do new animations for German artillery or delayed fuse for soviet heavy mortar. In the first example it clearly hits the ground and then go up like 20 meters to explode and in the second its just stretched out normal bombardment that even includes sound of it falling while it already hit it's target and now is waiting to explode.

Target vehicle is now broken??? Coming back to game after 3yrs...never had an issue before, now at guns fire at inf on target vehicle....

Thanks! Do the airburst share a CD with main barrage?

Just coming back to COH2 after a while, when did OKW's ability to reinforce at the medic base get removed? I seem to remember that being a thing. Now there's far less sense in placing the medic base in an aggressive position as you can only reinforce infantry at main base

The Biggest thing for me is that I now have to build Osttruppen. I'd rather have them be more expensive, but instant deployment, compared to the other way around.

What's this new update? How do I get it? The last update I see on Steam is from May 2018.

What’s a good way to deal with pioneers in the early game? Same with panzershrek spam

Elefant is dead to me now lol. It's fire rate is so slow + now without scope needs more invested into it to do "ok" at best. It's just not worth it compared to every other option.

For the soviets they changed almost all loitering strafing runs to il2 sturmovik strafing runs Fml

Nice summary! Why didn't you show new Soviet bunkers tho?

Kind of glad they changed up radio silence because Sturm pioneers used to be able to hunt down infantry with them Catch an enemy on the retreat and just keep up with them barely by just a few feet and maybe get a killing blow taking out a unit kind of glad they changed it a little sad to but also now that people know it’s going kind of gives them a reason to start looking around and go spooky pioneers coming out of the bushes

I would be more okay with the loss of CB on the 18 if it could finally move at least a tiny bit so you could reposition at least somewhat.

Summary: Shitty changes for OKW , very cool changes for Ostheer and good changes for the Allies. Thanks for the video, but I think you gave Ostheer and Soviet alot more time than the other factions(Especially Ostheer).

A squad with double MG's that can sprint. What could possibly go wrong lol.

Hi Hans will you make new Boot camp videos? Miss those

Premieres at 22hrs* Already has time stamps* What??

Nuclear tank instant cast. Why not reviewed here?

Interesting point of View of relic. Allied forces can't have one single skill op but axis ye can have, they must have

jeez.this game is still. hot and runnin huh

The repair bunkers are baseline now aren’t they

I've had issues with access to the new features after the update, I can't get conscript grenades, raid sections, or soviet bunkers. Is there a fix anyone knows about?

INCONSISTENCIES: why is the timer on the grenades much faster 32:36

Playing as usf is still painful asf, as for Panthers getting flairs......bruh dont they already have a unit to see trough gdam walls.

We can give the balance team all the shit we want about imbalance ( which I kinda disagree with anyway, I feel the game is pretty balanced overall ) but boi are we lucky to still have a breath of fresh air on this great 10 years old game every few months. It's not just balance patches, they add and rework stuff along with it which is great.

May i ask what is your computer spec

I thought Brits got changed more than that?

I read luftwaffe as loftwaffle

What would we do without you?

WTF is a Ostheer ?🤔🤔🤔

Interesting

Not a fan of the ostheer getting the forward resupply and also the bunker reinforce+heal merged... Axis already bunkers down all the time and it's already impossible to dig them out unless they complain about me choosing inf company agaaiin... Also osttruppen get the mg42 too early... Also immediate hull down release makes your panther the equivalent of a mobile elefant a turret..

17:15 they gave them a bombing run as strong as what the UKF had. Crazy, bet they will have to nerf it eventually.

I heard that Russians can build bunkers now but I'm seeing it nowhere in this video. False?

U.S.A.! Love that M10 buff!

Great , now radio silence is useless. Whats the point!

I had a 2v2 match today. 2 sov vs 1 OKWand 1 OsT. Me and teammate kinda spammed these zis 6. He had 1 and i had 3. We literally had so much resources its unfair

Paratroopers can upgrade bazoka too. Hehehehe

Oh Thank Fuck. Counter barrage was just stupid.

Thanks Hans. Anyone want to play?

Sir good day just want to ask how can I use the live patches for the game?

is caliope even viable?

I wanna know what the fuck hurt them so much about OKW. So they remove volk mines. But instead give them to british. And Americans riflemen already had mines

All hope is lost

nah counter battery was for the allied cancer called land mattres and us howitzer i guess allied players cried 2much

Really talking about nobrain skills? Just 1 thing then: British mortar emplacement. Ultra nobrain thing.

The B4 change is a nerf, the 8 sec reload is too long to realistically expect your opponent to stay in the target zone, and the suppression made follow up shot deal less damage. It’s only really usable against in maps that forces a high concentration of units in defense

I feel like all faction are becoming similair. As all of them are getting similair abilities just the name are different which is kind of lame as I enjoy each faction because of its uniqueness.

There goes the reason for making LefH, man this game slowly losing its former faction and units uniqueness just for sake of balancing

So they boost others and Nerf OKW… Nice…

That heavy bombing is ridiculous 😄

Tldr: It sucks

Counter battery "op" never mind the armored rocket Sherman and spaa's

First time IVe watched your video, good information but hard to watch, sounds/feels like you are yelling the entire time.

It's halarious that building a reinforced repair bunker is faster than buidling sandbags.

wow, the game looks quite realistic, almost like the game I am playing in my vids...,except maybe a bit better actually..

Vanilla game = bb game

Anybody else agree okw has been nerfed

B4 is still meme

OKW seem so weak now..... :(

finally!!!...better than the never! this should be 5 video and cover more changes...also is better for u...more content=movre views=more money=more subs...but idk for some reason, u work less than past! flags of the resupply station are so poor...i did not expect this from relic! most of the change are just copy from rival factions. u did not talk about commander nerf or buff...u just talk about changes which is not good! but anyway thanks for the analysis.

Gosh these axis nerfs are brutal. Allied artillery spam will be more brutal than ever to deal with. Not to mention the rampant allied infantry buffs jesus.

dude, i mean its okay that you covered the patch as fast as you did but we also can read patchnotes, we dont need you for that maybe instead of just reading them, like we all did, you could maybe talk about new meta and how this changes everything instead we got this cheap content where we watch you read patchnotes, like we cant do that ourselves boring and uninformative, 42 minutes of basically no content

TLDW; they nerfed SkippyFX

they nerfed everything SU hade against german broken heavys. wtf. the nerf number 200 on T-34 ram. remove this shitty ability allready. and then obliterating IL-2 rockets strafe and B4
