So maybe I haven't played enough 1v1s recently but I've just encountered this strat where the OKW just blobs hard in the early game.

I vaguely remember this happening before but I've been infrequently playing 1v1s.

It was nice that I was able to go around and cap the other half of the map. And my opponent was bad because of the way I trashed his P4.

But before that he put his schwerer on my fuel/cutoff and I lost two rifles + flamer RE in an engagement up top cuz I was stupid, which was when I surrendered.

But I remember now why I hate OKW. Because they can build a big truck and lock down half the map.

Sometimes grouping all your units together is a good tactic, sometimes it isn't. I've never understood insulting people for choosing a particular tactic (jk, I understand, losing feels bad).

If I have vision of enemy squads on the other side of the map, and I could potentially group all my infantry to win a fight elsewhere, is that insidious blobbing or good strategy?

I watched the replay, you really didn't. Maybe I misremember, feel free to tell me the timestamp, but I never saw him a-move all his units anywhere. You lost because that side of the map is really hard vs OKW and your multitasking lost you a bunch of squads, plus you had some poor engagement choices. He didn't blob his units except for maybe once, and one other time he grouped 3 volks (the engagement where you lost your rifles and flamer).

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific. :snfQuinn:.

20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
