I've just realized that coh2 statistics site has come back to alive. (Thank you for whomever made this possible)

And as I've expected, UKF's statistic is not even close to balanced.
42 ~ 44% win ratio in all 2:2 ~ 4:4,
1:1 win ratio is 52% at beset, 41% at worst.


Yet, when I came to this balance forum, what I see is buch of posts talking about UKF being too strong for some reasons.

In the last ML (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-ptwn9N11mZSocSJcL8xTQFrI8knU86DWoOL7OnCXjo/edit#gid=101410045)

UKF was picked only 9% (compare to 71% Soviet / 20% USF), and even then only won 3 games out of 13.

Yet, they got nerfed in winter balance & will be in commander patch.

Why? Am I missing something?

I do get replies about UKF playing count, yet nothing about win ratio. The important factor here is (obviously) win ratio.

By the way, when will JLI be nerfed? I cannot see the reason to give all the abilities to them and called in at cp1. When all other factions have call-in infantry at cp3. Comparing them with ranger... sigh...

1:1 win ratio is 52, but played game is 1/3 of the other factions. (Too sucks to play IMHO)

Not everyone has UKF since its a standalone and not released in a bundle like WFA and EFA.

You are comparing weekly WR (wait till at least we have a month worth of data) when there is so much fluctuation from week to week in the case of 1v1.

UKF has always been a mess when the balance of the faction revolves around how OP are IS or not, with the last patch unfortunately not addressing.


UKF will always be underpicked in pro play unless they are massively overpowered.


As far as preview changes, just voice your opinion and let's just try it to shape it cause this one will take a good time to build.

That has norhing to do with it.

stat site parse top 200 players match info. So unless there is less than 200 UKF players in rank, standalone DLC cannot be the execuse for the low match count.

You can view entire March stat if you want(but only supports weekly/daily view at the moment).
And result is worse if you do. haha...

Underpicked & low win ratio means something especially if it's between high level players. If win ratio of 23% doesn't mean something, what does?

And I have to mention that this ML was played im pre-winter patch version. And AFAIK, UKF got nerfed in winter patch. So... good luck to UKF for next ML & 2021.

From what i can tell from my experience playing as UKF(and again this is anecdotal) in 3x3 and 4x4 , i either roll over Axis with terminator sections and emplacements(mortar mostly) with good control over fuel points early game or they manage to hold enough for a elefant/Brummbar combo while leFHs bombard everything you have, at which point you either manage a Comet dive on the heavies supported by fireflys and if you are on good team by some allied offmap, or try to make a 17 pounder(which will just get bombarded to death). If none of those work you just watch all that VP advantage you made early game wither away before your eyes while your tanks are killed by the elefants, the emplacements/Arty by the leFHs and your infantary by vet 5 JLIs.

And from playing as Axis(again anecdotal personal experience) it's the same but in reverse the UKF comes with the terminator IFs blobs supported by some emplacements(which are hard to deal with early game) makes holding the fuel a living hell(maybe even closes one side/fuel point of the map due to sheer amount of emplacements) at which point either one of the randoms quits because they don't see a fuel nor VPs connected or your team holds one and makes some caches to proceed to stall for the elefant to deal with any of the allies tanks, one guys makes a leFH gets vet 1 with it and leaves it on counter Barrage while having a army composed intirely of JLIs and 3 rocketens, by some point in the game your team has 1 elefant, 1 king tiger and assorted suporting tanks and like 150 vps to the allies 400s , and as i wrote aside from a massive dive supported by offmaps the axis tanks will keep the allies tanks away(with decent micro) keeping a 2 VP pressure most of the time on the allied team,and then you see all that VP advantage the allies had wither before their eyes while your team kills their tanks with the elefant, the emplacements/Arty with the leFHs and the infantary with vet 5 JLIs.

So what i am saying is late game Axis Combined arms ''OP'' when used well on team games(hence the win rate i think).But IFs are a pain to deal with too and should be looked at.

It's slightly different to what it implies. Site creator explained it. While it takes data from top200 players, it also accounts for games played in modes on which those players are not top200.

If someone is ranked top100 in 4v4 random and top1500 in 1v1, his games in 1v1 will be accounted for as well.

The fact that a faction is also less played (you can check the amount of ranked players in coh2 official leaderboard means that you can make 1:1 comparisons between ranks. Someone ranked 200 UKF is way worse than someone ranked 300 as Soviets.

UKF is in a rough spot, but i'm explaining WHY some of the factors you include can't be translated directly as it been a clear issue.

Each pro player has a distinct playstyle and preference. Even when UKF was broken, some of them just played USF/SU. UKF will always be underpicked unless obnoxious OP at which point it barelys breaks even with been the 2nd most picked faction or on pair with the most picked one.

1v1

320/699
260/620
262/549
309/655

That's 45.62% That's low but fairly in the range of statistically acceptable accounting for the factors i mentioned before.

If you talk about the 4v4 margins, yep, that's more of a clear issue.

Good point on the flaws of match stats. Did not see that. Thank you.


However, I still disagree with 45% is "acceptable" WR. I do agree that the match stats must be seen for more time, but do not expect it to be changed significantly.
2:2~4:4 is just.... to be honest removing UKF will be a burf to the Soviet & USF. Their win ratio will go higher with that patch.

What I don't really understand (and majorly complaining) is that I don't see a point of recent patches. What are they seeing to adjust the balance?

I mean.. ML was pre-winter patch. It has been a year since UKF was not in a major league. Yet they nerfed UKF one more time just like nailing a coffin.

In Korean community playing brits is almost a meme "I can win u even with this broken faction".

Most of the complaints I see are related to playing against them being unfun.

The first 4 minutes of the game vs Brits suck to play. They have the best starting unit in the game.
Sections are extremely powerful and clearly overtuned. UC is a fantastic bleed machine in the early game. They even have access to a T1 machine gun.

Midgame they have multiple emplacements that can be very annoying to remove given how few weapons are effective vs them (mostly AT Guns) and how vulnerable they tend to be when pushing that far forward. (Raketen retreat comes up big here) Trenches make the already annoying Sections an absolute nightmare to dislodge.

But the faction also tends to falter at this point. They have no mobile arty, so if they start from behind in an arty war they always lose as they can't get out from under the superior barrages. Their squad weapons are lackluster, while Axis STGs and LMG42s are excellent, bridging some of the gap in infantry power. Their MG has terrible suppression, so they struggle to stop blobs that other MGs would quickly shut down. They have no real close range assault troops. (Assault Officer is not good) Their Smoke has Grenade throw range but Mortar levels of delay before arriving. Their supposedly superior Arty has to be thrown from short range and arrives so slowly its really just an area denial tool rather than real arty. Their T3/T4 vehicles outside of the Comet are all fairly 'meh' units. On top of that, the faction has a tiny stock roster that gets cut down even further by having to choose which T4 its going to get.

In short, the insistence on making factions around having incomplete toolkits be 'balanced' by broken units has created a faction that feels unfair to play against while still being underpowered.

Aimstrong chose UKF, that was like the only UKF match. And he lost to VonIvan. UKF was a meme faction in ML4.

Pro players don't choose UKF cuz its OP? what lol? If anyone wanted to win ML4 and UKF was OP they would choose UKF not Soviets.

ML4 made it clear: Soviets and Ostheer are best. USF is 2nd, OKW 3rd, and UKF is the worst. UKF has too many weaknesses

ML4 was played specifically with commander terminator format with PATCH PREVIEW 1.5.

https://www.coh2.org/news/107349/master-league-4-announcement


UKF has been historically underpicked even when they were at their strongest (AEC spam meta). Aimstrong/Asha/Hans had been players who are more likely to play UKF. Someone like Devm plays way more USF and Luvnest SU.

Will they decide to change a bit if one faction is absolutely OP in one patch? To some degree but not to the point of completely maining it exclusively unless the balance is THAT BAD.

Check answer above. It was preview patch.

45% for 1v1 AUTOMATCH ranked is acceptable considering what i said about how the stats are brought up. If you had a way to filter top 50 or at least top100 (much more estable populations) 1v1 only players that would be a bit low but not that far away from statistically avg.

Prior to ML4, it was basically OH>USF>=UKF on 1v1 with SU/OKW not seeing much play. IIRC UKF was way more predominant in 2v2 games and further above.

The patch was REALLY bad for UKF and expectable results were done but it's not like there were not reasons to change them.

It's just that we are looping between oppressive faction with cheese and strong IS + "insert flavour of the patch tank" vs meme tier pick.

The balance team are hamstrung. Relic won't let them make some (very necessary) major changes to the faction, they seem to be doing their best to make UKF a real faction while staying within the confines of Relic's autistic "vision".

Unfortunately it isnt working, though the effort really is commendable.

While they may be constrained on some things, the direction of the last several patches has been to worsen allies in 4v4. I realize that they're trying to balance 1v1 and possibly 2v2 more than they're trying to affect 4v4's, but they aren't really trying to even out 4v4's.

The statistics aren't surprising. The non-doc rocket arty has too great of an impact on 4v4's, where both werfers and stukas delete allied infantry really well.

UKF doesn't have a good arty counter. They have only three abilities that delete howitzers, each in a single doctrine. Two of them are really expensive and have long cooldowns (Supremacy and Concentrated Fire). The one with Advanced Emplacements is okay but the rest of the doctrine isn't good in 4v4's. The change to Advanced Emplacements was a step in the right direction, but Improved Fortification will always make emplacements more difficult to balance. It would be much better to replace that ability with a 25lbr howitzer to make the commander similar to the Storm commander.

There doesn't really seem to be any good options for USF besides Airborne, Infantry, and Urban (or possibly tactical). The nerf to IR made Recon even more irrelevant. The tiny buff to the Greyhound leaves it still irrelevant. Buffing the main gun or giving it something like treadbreaker would go a long way towards making it better. USF badly needs a non-doc damage sponge. Ost always has at least a Panther and a Brummbar, OKW always has KT's, Panthers, and a PIV that is better than a Sherman. USF has to crutch on Jacksons, Calliope's, Priests, and skill planes.

I think Soviets are mostly okay at the moment. Their win rate is most likely dragged down by UKF.

In the smaller game modes, I think OKW struggles on some of the maps because of the weird power curve of Volks. They probably should be a little better late game. Instead of more Con nerfs, there should be some Volks buffs. I usually get 2-3 Volks in 4's but never replace them if I lose them, they're just too mediocre at the end of the game, especially compared to every other option.

Nickbn: where to better ask why you are banned than on a dead fansite @donaldfufu
27 Nov 2024, 17:58 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah, you'd have to say something pretty heinous to get banned from Coh2 these days! I don't think cheating counts anymore.
27 Nov 2024, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: Relic has not banned anyone from Coh2 in a long time. Did you do something really really bad or maybe say something bad in Twitch chat, Discord, etc?
27 Nov 2024, 03:17 AM
donaldfufu: who can tell my how 2 get support
27 Nov 2024, 02:46 AM

Rosbone: I would link his dealie but it may make me get banned again (more). :thumbsup:
22 Nov 2024, 22:33 PM
Rosbone: I heard Marcus left and his LinkedIn says he is at EA now. But he was in stream. Maybe they wanted to let him enjoy some of the stuff he helped with before he left?
22 Nov 2024, 22:32 PM
aerafield: @Hannibal don't think anyone got kicked out, but 'apparently' Marcus left or something, at least that's what I heard
22 Nov 2024, 20:00 PM
Hannibal: Did they kick out another guy?
22 Nov 2024, 08:46 AM

19 Nov 2024, 16:31 PM
aerafield: weekly shoutbox post so this site doesnt feel 100% dead :new:
19 Nov 2024, 02:02 AM
Rosbone: Seriously Relic, call me I will get your game fixed up and successful in like a month tops. It is that easy. Clearly you dont have the ability to do so. I will even do it for free. Like I have everything else for you.
13 Nov 2024, 05:10 AM
Rosbone: Put out a broken half finished game. Then throw bread crumbs on the ground every 3 months for the 2500 people who like the game. Dont support the people hyping your game. And pat yourself on the back cause you are doing a good job.
13 Nov 2024, 05:08 AM
Rosbone: Why? Why would you kill off your own IP and community. These are free sales, marketing, and hype streams for your game. And they murdered them. Clueless support, no kill counts, trash UI, just ... nothing.
13 Nov 2024, 05:05 AM
Rosbone: It is mind boggling how Stormless, Tric, Ishtari, SkippyFX, AE, etc etc and all the guys before that with OCF built this fun community excited to watch Coh, and Relic killed them off. One by one they fell.
13 Nov 2024, 05:03 AM
Rosbone: Observation mode may help the community. May create more and better streaming options. But no kill counts makes it like watching futbol and only having a camera on the middle of the field. Not sure what is really happening.
13 Nov 2024, 05:00 AM
Rosbone: Hoping the next patch makes it good then realizing it will never happen. Then move on for a couple months. Then miss the community and come back.
13 Nov 2024, 04:58 AM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego Whats going on in January? Or do you mean Feb when the next quarterly patch is coming. You know play Coh3 for 4 days then play something else for 3 months cycle.
13 Nov 2024, 04:57 AM
donofsandiego: you know what guys, I'm sick of this phase. I'm tired of trying to breathe life into this mummy. I'm skipping straight from denial to acceptance. See y'all in January

09 Nov 2024, 21:17 PM
donofsandiego: The secret is you feed it the whole comment that it's responding to do it can play off of it with context clues. As for potty mouthing, if you just ask it to write "with excessive vulgarity" you should get the results you're looking for.
09 Nov 2024, 16:00 PM
donofsandiego: @PatFenis was the "No shit" comment supposed to be sarcastic or were those two parenthesis supposed to be question marks xD
09 Nov 2024, 15:53 PM
PatFenis: I have to say, the prompt to write like an average coh2.org forum users was quite spot on. Although I would have welcomed more potty mouthing. I encouraged it to do so :(
09 Nov 2024, 15:27 PM
PatFenis: No shit ))
09 Nov 2024, 15:25 PM

donofsandiego: Oh, just in case people didn't notice, my most insane recent forum posts are ChatGPT generated. I was bored :'(
09 Nov 2024, 13:55 PM
Rosbone: For the record, I am not a dickhead. I identify as an unhinged cynical anachronism. With a pinch of pessimist. All words both Relic and I cant spell consistently.
08 Nov 2024, 18:16 PM
Rosbone: :romeoPro:
08 Nov 2024, 18:12 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah I can't handle it either. It will just devolve into he-said she-said groups of idiots evangilising for their respective side. We get enough of that in real life. I'm much happier reading an epic Rosbone rant on Relic's business practises.
08 Nov 2024, 15:59 PM
aerafield: @donofsandiego nah, such topics dont belong to a gaming forum imo. Because before you know it, you're gonna argue with people who claim that Putin is a saint and that the Ukraine is evil. And I dont want to find out how fucking stupid some people here are
08 Nov 2024, 15:12 PM
donofsandiego: :mcsteve:
08 Nov 2024, 10:52 AM
donofsandiego: I certainly can't claim to be otherwise
08 Nov 2024, 10:51 AM
OKSpitfire: Fair point. We are definitely all dickheads :D
08 Nov 2024, 10:47 AM
donofsandiego: I for one think it's fitting to be calling attention to it. It's thematic, considering the game's setting, no?
08 Nov 2024, 10:43 AM
donofsandiego: Well that's not very nice of you to go around calling people dickheads on the internet. Truly I've been wounded. But hold, doesn't it take one to know one?
08 Nov 2024, 10:41 AM
OKSpitfire: We tend to hear more than enough about it in our actual lives.
08 Nov 2024, 08:56 AM
OKSpitfire: No Don, they just dont particularly want to be lectured about it by some dickhead on a videogame forum. Believe it or not people dont come to this website for that.
08 Nov 2024, 08:55 AM
donofsandiego: but you know what people really want? Crispy, crunchy bacon. And I want a bacon sandwich
08 Nov 2024, 07:49 AM
donofsandiego: @Rosbone throwback to when I got scoffed at for bringing attention to the g*cide in Gaza and got scoffed at. People wanna be comfortable. 15 mil people literally just didn't get off the couch and go to the polls compared to 2020
08 Nov 2024, 07:46 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield It always seems impossible that people supported Hitler... yet here we are. If you are dumb enough, history will repeat itself. Humans are flawed. I am throwing in with AI :snfPeter:

06 Nov 2024, 20:11 PM
Rosbone: Ok, you ae watching the Olympics and Noah Lyles breaks away from the pack and smokes his competition. Crosses the finish line. "Yay he won". How fast did he go? Was it a new world record? If Relic was showing it, we would have no idea.
06 Nov 2024, 20:09 PM
Rosbone: They deserve ALL of the bad things that are happening to them. Those things and more. You cant be that clueless and survive in business.
05 Nov 2024, 17:44 PM
Rosbone: The real downfall of Coh2 was the match making. It was complete dog squeeze forever and Relic was too stupid to fix it. That is when I knew Relic was doomed to fail. But I thought maybe, just maybe they are not that stupid. Wrong. They are that stupid.
05 Nov 2024, 17:43 PM
Soheil: Coh2 been abandoned by Developers about a year
05 Nov 2024, 14:56 PM
donofsandiego: Did you know CoH 1 had an automatch function too? Nobody uses it now, just like nobody will use CoH 2 automatch.
04 Nov 2024, 15:25 PM
donofsandiego: then, send them a friend request. Finally, host a custom match and invite all of them to play with you.
04 Nov 2024, 15:24 PM

02 Nov 2024, 11:10 AM
javad: Because coh series is a low number player game and relic will not care about it
02 Nov 2024, 10:57 AM
Soheil: High likely Developers free cheaters to do anything so that people buy coh3 and migrate
02 Nov 2024, 10:12 AM
Soheil: Coh 2 was good as a whole , but map hackers and cheaters are ruined this game . I just came back after 5 years to play but no way 😁 it seems coh 3 is a last choice
02 Nov 2024, 09:56 AM
Rosbone: Here is a post I made in Dec 2022: https://www.coh2.org/file/20497/kermitrelic-01.jpg
02 Nov 2024, 04:27 AM
Rosbone: So your real statement should be "Thanks to Relic, Coh is dead."
02 Nov 2024, 04:27 AM
Rosbone: They can barely put out a patch every 3 months, nevermind fix the 50 or so major issues with Coh3. It will never happen.
02 Nov 2024, 04:26 AM
Rosbone: Problem is Coh2 with hackers and no support is still 3x better than Coh3 with support, challenges, etc. And that fact will never change, because Relic will never fix Coh3.
02 Nov 2024, 04:22 AM
javad: tnks to relic its a dead game now

23 Oct 2024, 18:29 PM
donofsandiego: I guess CoH 2 online is going to turn out like CoH 1 did: only custom matches, and an insular community that kicks anyone who looks suspicious or doesn't have hundreds of hours in the game.
20 Oct 2024, 14:26 PM
donofsandiego: lmfao maybe they're relic devs trying to get people to quit CoH 2 lolll
20 Oct 2024, 14:25 PM

10 Oct 2024, 14:03 PM
Lady Xenarra: Ah yes, random teammate decides to drop the match, despite being bailed out 3 times because 'you camper'. It's not my fault if someone decides to slug it out under a loiter. :S
10 Oct 2024, 14:02 PM
Rosbone: Yes, Coh2 is the best of the 3. Check back in 10 years to see if Coh3 has evolved to Coh2 levels :luvCarrot:
10 Oct 2024, 11:59 AM
Soheil: Still coh2 better than 3
10 Oct 2024, 11:13 AM
Rosbone: Patch must have brought in new people who are campaign players.
09 Oct 2024, 02:51 AM
Rosbone: Seriously though, I have not looked in a long time. But I peaked in there are still a lot of complaints about the campaign stuff. Crashing, save errors, units that cant be killed but need to be to proceed, etc. Just thought it was weird.
09 Oct 2024, 02:51 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield I know right :romeoHairDay:
09 Oct 2024, 02:49 AM
aerafield: @Rosbone omg no way :o
08 Oct 2024, 22:41 PM
Rosbone: weird how the player counts for Coh3 came up a little after the patch but the steam reviews are still like 55% :unsure:
08 Oct 2024, 20:46 PM
Rosbone: 4 out of 5 streamers recommend streaming Coh2!
08 Oct 2024, 20:45 PM
Willy Pete: Does that mean the game is balanced? Of course not. But you comparing this to the previous situation is completely absurd :rolleyes:
08 Oct 2024, 00:09 AM
Willy Pete: DAK winrate for the summer at 1400-1599: 46% (1v1), 48% (2v2), 54% (3v3), 56% (4v4). Seriously, what the fuck are you talking about
08 Oct 2024, 00:06 AM
Willy Pete: What winrates? The ones at your specific elo? The highest for the whole playerbase right now is 53.6% for the brits in 3v3. Wtf are you smoking
08 Oct 2024, 00:02 AM
Lady Xenarra: It's also nearly 2 weeks in and the handcap has indeed 'come off' already.
07 Oct 2024, 23:59 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Don't be deceitful and leave out the part where L6 memes and -bugged- units were involved
07 Oct 2024, 23:57 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete For the first few days, when ppl were raving about the immediate aftermath. We can give it another week if you so wish, but these % aren't changing except for worse now
07 Oct 2024, 23:56 PM
aerafield: The 60% winrate for axis was fine because it was "only a week after the patch", don't you remember? :snfPeter:
07 Oct 2024, 23:38 PM
Willy Pete: "It's just the handicap coming off" give me a break lmao
07 Oct 2024, 23:37 PM
Willy Pete: Seriously? You literally defended a 60% winrate in all modes for the entire playerbase....
07 Oct 2024, 23:36 PM
Lady Xenarra: Perhaps you have some lengthy posts to make about the WR%s now? Esp above 1400?
07 Oct 2024, 23:19 PM

Rosbone: @aerafield Yeah, vCoh as life. I made a bunch of single lane bridge type maps and would wail away for hours. Average 250k damage per hour. Hit a million several times. <444>3
07 Oct 2024, 03:13 AM
aerafield: CoH1 was fucking amazing (even as a casual noob, which i totally was majority of my coh1 time), just stick to custom games and get that Achelous River, Vire River Valley, Lyon and Sheldt action coming <444>3
06 Oct 2024, 22:51 PM
Rosbone: I am talking about a single sniper shot that kills 3-5 units at once. Pierces all of them. vCoh is anal cancer from what I hear. I only played Comp Stomps in vCoh.
06 Oct 2024, 02:03 AM
donofsandiego: you experienced players will never experience CoH 1 multiplayer like I did: raging with my eyes full of tears because of how badly every single person trounced you in every game you played. Oh, and never ever ever being able to kill the frigging sniper

04 Oct 2024, 17:40 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra they did indeed buff the whizbang range slightly, apologies for not noticing. I have not seen a Whizbang being used ever so I couldn't tell, dps still seems terrible though
04 Oct 2024, 17:39 PM
Rosbone: COh3 balance seems to have smoothed out since the hotfix though :thumb:
04 Oct 2024, 16:06 PM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego Welcome back! I have no idea what these guys are even talking about. Its great. I am a new man, No longer shall I say aloud every 5 minutes "Relic is uhhh... uhhh... you know".
04 Oct 2024, 16:05 PM
Willy Pete: Oh and we're still comparing a unit you have no matter what, to a unit you need a doctrine for...
04 Oct 2024, 15:06 PM
Willy Pete: It's mobile artillery. Better range > health and armor. Whizbang only needs that because it has to drive so close
04 Oct 2024, 15:05 PM
Lady Xenarra: if you want the Allied Stuka then expect it to be as fragile as the Axis Stuka. You have terrible takes as well :rofl:
04 Oct 2024, 14:51 PM
Lady Xenarra: Complaining about the 25 muni smoke is neither here nor there, the upgrade is a premium in a very MP stressed faction.
04 Oct 2024, 14:48 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield The whizzbang outranges even the FlaK 36, if you're driving into AT guns, this is a skill issue.
04 Oct 2024, 14:46 PM
aerafield: @donofsandiego the forum itself is dead, we moved on to the shitbox B-)
04 Oct 2024, 14:12 PM
aerafield: meanwhile, the Stuka launches mini-nukes across half the map, tanks two medium tank shots, and for some reason also gets emergency smoke so even the low wattage troglodytes can keep that thing alive vs flanking tanks
04 Oct 2024, 14:11 PM
donofsandiego: Oh well. Life moves on.
04 Oct 2024, 14:05 PM
donofsandiego: I leave for a week and there are 5 new posts. Just rip out my heart and stomp on it already.
04 Oct 2024, 14:04 PM
aerafield: and even if it behaved like an actual shotgun (short range, guaranteed wipe) it would still be trash design
04 Oct 2024, 14:01 PM
aerafield: whoever thought that in CoH3 we need an expensive arty piece designed like a shotgun, except that shotgun fires less-lethal beanbag rounds... I would like to talk to them
04 Oct 2024, 14:00 PM
aerafield: these giga axis main balance takes, you almost can't make them up
04 Oct 2024, 13:57 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra how convenient that you left out the range or damage difference when comparing Stuka and Whizbang :rofl: Yeah I'm sure you wouldn't mind if the Stuka would have to drive into AT gun range and the opponent has to go afk for 10sec
04 Oct 2024, 13:54 PM
Lady Xenarra: It prob could do with a 20 fuel cost tbh.
04 Oct 2024, 01:19 AM
Willy Pete: Nebelwerfer is the only axis arty that pisses me off. It's value for cost compared to Allied and DAK arty I find to be hilarious
04 Oct 2024, 00:59 AM
Willy Pete: Just like I don't envy DAK and the FV balancing. Coh3 is full of decisions that require glaring weaknesses to offset them. Coh2 had this as well but you would expect it to improve in the next game not get worse
04 Oct 2024, 00:57 AM
Lady Xenarra: Then I don't envy the task of balancing a lategame USF stock heavy arty option. I suspect if it's put in, then the early/midgame will suffer for it.
04 Oct 2024, 00:54 AM
Willy Pete: Did I say it was terrible? It's not stock. That's my main problem with it.
04 Oct 2024, 00:50 AM
Lady Xenarra: I guess - firepower too
04 Oct 2024, 00:45 AM
Willy Pete: Oh the scott was retarded. No question. Path scott made the game boring with how easy it was. Still shit design
04 Oct 2024, 00:45 AM
Lady Xenarra: Ok I'll make you a deal. Let's give Stuka +10 FU cost, +560HP, - speed, sherman armour, then I will complain it's a terrible artillery piece ok?
04 Oct 2024, 00:45 AM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete If you want someone to be angry about poor lategame USF arty options, look no further than the COH2 Scott. I'm sure ppl had a lot of fun with pathscoot but there are consequences for balance long term.
04 Oct 2024, 00:43 AM
Willy Pete: "Don't expect wipes" ..... from an 80 fuel artillery piece....
04 Oct 2024, 00:40 AM
Willy Pete: I don't pretend to be high level at coh3, but was often top 100 in coh2 and in team games mortars were often useless compared to heavier options as the game went on
04 Oct 2024, 00:35 AM
Willy Pete: Well Jesus, thx shoutbox. I'm not talking light arty I'm talking the heavier arty that everyone else gets stock besides US.
04 Oct 2024, 00:31 AM
Willy Pete: *highness
04 Oct 2024, 00:30 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra Ooo forgive me your signed
04 Oct 2024, 00:29 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra I'm not talking about light arty, I'm talking
04 Oct 2024, 00:29 AM
Lady Xenarra: I think it's an ok unit if you must know. Good at bleeding MP but don't expect wipes. It's got the misfortune of being endlessly compared with the Calliope
03 Oct 2024, 23:12 PM
aerafield: You're so deep in the axis bubble, you probably praise the Whizbang as a great unit
03 Oct 2024, 23:07 PM
Lady Xenarra: Dodging enemy light arty barrages is 101 for high lvl players
03 Oct 2024, 22:54 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete In 10 years I have never had a mortar become obsolete as long as smoke existed. Nvm airburst shells. If there's an enemy weapons team, it has value.
03 Oct 2024, 22:53 PM
Willy Pete: The pak howie isnt stock, and you know damn well the mortar becomes obselete when mid-late arty arrives
03 Oct 2024, 19:27 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield You don't like the Pack howie and the best mortar in the game?
03 Oct 2024, 18:49 PM
Indische_Legion: @aerafield Mr kitty says "Swexx :3"
03 Oct 2024, 09:45 AM
Rosbone: :hansRNG:
03 Oct 2024, 00:44 AM
aerafield: that thing reliably penetrates the frontal armor of brummbars, with higher damage than medium tanks
02 Oct 2024, 23:40 PM
aerafield: @Willy Pete the overtuned barrage is basically the glue that holds USF together though, it's a bandaid fix for the otherwise horrible indirect fire situation. What they definitely need to nerf though is damage & penetration
02 Oct 2024, 23:40 PM
aerafield: speaking about 3v3 or 4v4, the t3 or t4 is basically optional now. You can just spam the AT halftrack and spam doctrinal inf or rifles, and you're completely fine
02 Oct 2024, 23:37 PM
Willy Pete: So they buffed the barrage but increased the fuel cost. That's slightly less stupid than I was expecting, but still a questionable choice
02 Oct 2024, 21:00 PM
Willy Pete: They didn't buff it in this patch did they? Cuz it was already good before, but that would be a classic Relic move
02 Oct 2024, 20:54 PM
aerafield: Just get 4 or 5 of them and you have good anti-blob and scare even a Tiger away
02 Oct 2024, 11:17 AM
aerafield: Have to say, the 57mm AT halftrack from USF needs to get nerfed very soon. It's like the old SU-76 on even better steroids
02 Oct 2024, 11:06 AM
Lady Xenarra: WTB proper mainline for DAK
01 Oct 2024, 20:12 PM
Rosbone: @adamírcz Aera always talks about the omplicated tech structures of allies also. And the fact you cant A-move generally. But that is Coh2. Are you talking Coh3?
29 Sep 2024, 20:47 PM
Rosbone: "Coh3, I am not mad at you. I am just disappointed." - Mom voice
29 Sep 2024, 20:46 PM
Rosbone: @adamírcz Yes, allie players never make AT and just get smashed when the first tank comes out. They think thei late weak allied tank will be enough and it never is.
29 Sep 2024, 20:45 PM
adamírcz: just great, also, is that just my impression or are most axis players simply better than allies, on average
29 Sep 2024, 19:38 PM
adamírcz: 2 games where its a 4 digit rank teammate against three top100s, then a game where teammate bluescreens
29 Sep 2024, 19:37 PM
Rosbone: @skemshead That is a funny joke, but too close for me since I got banned for saying something similar :foreveralone:
29 Sep 2024, 13:12 PM
Rosbone: The top people got let go. I do not remember if/which devs got let go. But clearly they need to cut more bad management people.
29 Sep 2024, 13:10 PM
Indische_Legion: All in all though, didnt the coh3 dev lose their jobs and the retard mouth breathing managers stay on in relic?
29 Sep 2024, 12:47 PM
skemshead: I always thought Coh3 was made by woke females trying to prioritise consoles..
29 Sep 2024, 07:45 AM
Rosbone: Back on track: I had Dirty_Finisher and Ishtari on the 42" 4K with Olvadi on the iPad playing Coh3 4v4s. It was a good day.
29 Sep 2024, 06:19 AM
Rosbone: Damn it. I did it again. Coh3 is complete trash made by retards. All roads lead to this conclusion. :romeoHairDay:
29 Sep 2024, 06:15 AM
Rosbone: Katy shot into the FOW then backs away... you can see the kill counts ring up.... You wouldnt know jack sh*t in Coh3. Pew Pew Pew... backs away.... ???
29 Sep 2024, 06:15 AM
Rosbone: And you guys are like "You dont need kill counts". Please send me a link to the place where you guys buy your weed. Cause its making you dumb. :luvCarrot:
29 Sep 2024, 06:13 AM
Rosbone: First few Ishtari moments I saw was a B4 into the FOW. 7 kills first shot. That is why Coh3 will never be a good game guys. If that was Coh3 you would not know WTF happened. Boom. Splash. Something happened I guess???
29 Sep 2024, 06:12 AM
Rosbone: Having Ishtari back on stream with Sturmpanther on team made me feel like it was my birthday :romeoHype:
28 Sep 2024, 21:12 PM
Rosbone: Should I start doing daily affirmations for Coh3? "I like Coh3. Coh3 is a good game. And darn it, people like it." - Al Franken voice reference you wont get.
28 Sep 2024, 05:28 AM
Rosbone: @Indische_Legion Bless you . We shall all pray to you on your journey to free us from bondage.
28 Sep 2024, 05:26 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield Yeah I can imagine rank is meaningless until like 50 or so.
28 Sep 2024, 05:25 AM
Indische_Legion: @Rosbone Don't worry i will single handedly cleanse and purge coh2 from all the sweatlords and tryhards. People will have no choice but to be nice and civil under my rule >:)
28 Sep 2024, 04:38 AM
aerafield: The remaining playerbase is so bad, you see a rank 100 player and cant tell if they're decent or horrible at the game, usually it's the latter
28 Sep 2024, 00:31 AM
aerafield: I can tell you 95% of all CoH2 matches nowadays are MONKE cage-fights. No matter your rank
28 Sep 2024, 00:29 AM
Rosbone: and you will be stuck playing with monkeys forever.
28 Sep 2024, 00:14 AM
Rosbone: Cheating in 1v1 is easy to ignore though. You suspect cheating just drop. you cant do that in 4v4, your rank will erode to a place you cant come back from.
28 Sep 2024, 00:13 AM
Rosbone: If only I could talk about Coh and not return to Coh3 sucks. Ok I am going to turn over a new leaf. Help me forget Coh3 ever existed guys. I need your help. :snfQuinn:
28 Sep 2024, 00:11 AM
Rosbone: that was a big hope for coh3. If the playerbase got big enough it might drown out the douche bags with more actual players. But that dream is dead. Coh3 killed so many facets of the community. Complete disgrace.
28 Sep 2024, 00:10 AM
Rosbone: If only they could just enjoy what a great game Coh2 is for itself and leave their egos at the door.
28 Sep 2024, 00:08 AM
Rosbone: Like I say below and a few times a year, so many RTS players are incel cucks that only feel good about themselves when they are beating someone else. So cheating is just the next level of loser behavior.
28 Sep 2024, 00:07 AM
Rosbone: To qoute the great philosophers of the 2000's, It is what it is. :luvDerp:
28 Sep 2024, 00:05 AM
GenMe: there are so many hackers in coh 2 1v1 automatch now its becoming part of the entertainment :D
27 Sep 2024, 23:51 PM
Rosbone: Uhhhmmmm.... no? :snfPeter:
27 Sep 2024, 18:05 PM
Indische_Legion: @Rosbone Does this mean i can use drophacks without being banned?
27 Sep 2024, 17:27 PM
Indische_Legion: @Rosbone Does this mean i can continue using drophacks without being banned ?
27 Sep 2024, 17:27 PM
Rosbone: Q Mode Mod Example: https://www.coh2.org/file/21011/qmode01.jpg
27 Sep 2024, 03:23 AM
Rosbone: Relic does not care about Coh3, why do you?
27 Sep 2024, 03:17 AM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete It is not the end. But if your game is struggling. All of the 4v4 streamers left. Wouldnt you do everything in your power to get them back. Or sit in your tower putting out your shit balance patches and slapping each other on the back?
27 Sep 2024, 03:16 AM
Rosbone: Everytime I watch a 1v1 lord they never look at the match stats. There are people who enjoy the game. And there are people who just want to feel better than someone else. I won, I am better than you. I feel so cool. Childs mentality.
27 Sep 2024, 03:13 AM
Rosbone: Coh2 is such a nuanced game. And I can tell from the Coh3 lovers they are not nuanced. Thus they like Coh3. It is not nuanced at all.
27 Sep 2024, 03:12 AM
Rosbone: What is the excitement after atank hits vet 3? Nothing. Unless you can see kills. "Hollly Sheet that ostwind has 74 kills!"
27 Sep 2024, 03:10 AM
Rosbone: Every single 4v4 match below level 12 is just noob making blobs and smashing into the enemy. They dont give a shit about VPs at all. They would never take a VP. Walk right passed it. All they care is kill counts. Thus coh3 is dead.
27 Sep 2024, 03:09 AM
Rosbone: sometime just watch matches for fun and constantly watch kill counts. it is my personal main metric for an exciting match.
27 Sep 2024, 03:07 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield I constantly look at kills on stream. I constantly looked in Coh2 when I played. Especially mortars. I would spectate games and see how players are moving their stuff, their builds, etc and constantly watch kill counts.
27 Sep 2024, 03:06 AM
aerafield: Or you wanna seriously tell me you're constantly looking at the kill counts of all units at all times, even from infantry squads or weapon teams? People look at the kill count of a vet 5 p4 or KT after a long fight and that's about it
26 Sep 2024, 23:14 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone I think you are exaggerating the importance of easily visible kill counts by a lot. Yes, it is very interesting to immediately see the kill counts of snipers or high-vet tanks in LONG battles on stream. Outside of that, I dont think anyone cares
26 Sep 2024, 23:13 PM
Willy Pete: Of all the reasons to shit on coh3 lol
26 Sep 2024, 22:44 PM
Willy Pete: Yes I have. When I play the game, I can see my kills. Not being able to see the kills of every unit the streamer has is really not the end of the world
26 Sep 2024, 22:43 PM
Rosbone: Have you guys ever played Coh seriously.
26 Sep 2024, 21:22 PM
Rosbone: KCs is a symptom of the larger problem. but you cucks are just gonna take it on the face and smile. Your loss not mine.
26 Sep 2024, 21:21 PM
Rosbone: You gonna spam the streamer to hover the kill counter? Get serious man.
26 Sep 2024, 21:20 PM
Rosbone: So you miss the first 6 minutes and see a sniper with some vet? How many kills does it have? What have you missed? Its every unit, not just snipers.
26 Sep 2024, 21:20 PM
Willy Pete: "How will the viewers know if the sniper is being microd properly?" Lol by watching the game. You can see the kills if you want when you're playing. By far the most bizarre take on coh3
26 Sep 2024, 20:51 PM
Rosbone: They are so out of touch it is insane to believe that an AI is not running the company. Or like that South Park where it was like walruses in a pool running stuff.
26 Sep 2024, 19:30 PM
Rosbone: Is it a coincidence that ALL of the 4v4 streamers are gone when Coh3 came out? Seriously, they ALL are gone. Greyshot pops in once every 2 months. And Relic thinks Coh3 is a success. Seriously. How?
26 Sep 2024, 19:28 PM
Rosbone: Even if he started streaming again, it would be boring as F**k to watch with no kill counts.
26 Sep 2024, 19:26 PM
Rosbone: How many games have I watched waiting for Duffmans KT to hit 100 kills? A lot. Where is Duffman now? Oh thats right he quit Coh when Coh3 came out because it is trash.
26 Sep 2024, 19:26 PM
Rosbone: I personally will never watch Coh3 without Kills. And I am just one person. but I know for a fact at least 10 people who will never enjoy Coh3 because there are no visible kills.
26 Sep 2024, 19:25 PM
Rosbone: Every person I used to play with only cared about kill counts. "My Ostwind has 74 kills!"
26 Sep 2024, 19:24 PM
Rosbone: When a Katy throws into a blob how many kills did it get? Can you count all the missing units and XP kickers in real time?
26 Sep 2024, 19:19 PM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego I have explained this many times. When a sniper is working it should have 2 kills per minute. How will viewers ever know if the sniper is being microed properly?
26 Sep 2024, 19:18 PM
donofsandiego: and if you were to ask me where I would rank having unit kill counts in game in an easily visible place instead of the XP bar, I would tell you that I literally do not care when is the next battlegroup coming out
26 Sep 2024, 17:55 PM
donofsandiego: but I, donofsandiego, spokesman for the lowest common denominator and phone number rank base, can honestly tell you that I forget it even exists
26 Sep 2024, 17:53 PM
donofsandiego: I was looking at the engagements, explosions, and the pretty colors. Maybe this is some kind of high rank player thing where you're looking at the unit all the time to determine how much value you're getting out of it
26 Sep 2024, 17:52 PM
donofsandiego: Look bro I'm gonna be 100% honest, I never once noticed the kill counts in any CoH 2 game that I watched.
26 Sep 2024, 17:51 PM
Rosbone: In order for us to maximize our sales in these emerging markets we must enhance the viewer feedback and experience.
26 Sep 2024, 17:19 PM
Rosbone: Since Relic is not a vertically integrated company, we rely on the exposure we gain thru our streaming platform partners. And the feedback we are gathering is that they are struggling to grow viewership.
26 Sep 2024, 17:15 PM
Rosbone: Match excitement is attributed to two Key Performace Indicators: Kills and VPs. Coh3 is currently only utilizing on of these metrics and reducing viewer excitement by 50%.
26 Sep 2024, 17:12 PM
Rosbone: Let me put it in retard business lingo so the tards at Relic can repeat it back in a meeting and sound like they know what is going on...
26 Sep 2024, 17:10 PM
Rosbone: Yes it made the schills and copers even more delusional :romeoHairDay:
26 Sep 2024, 17:09 PM
Katitof: last I've checked games are won when you get 500 VPs, not 500 kills, something changed with last patch? :snfBarton:
26 Sep 2024, 10:57 AM
Rosbone: Disclaimer: Relic is full tard, so dont blame me if they remove the VPs now :snfPeter:
26 Sep 2024, 05:39 AM
Rosbone: I mean why even have the VP counter on the screen if you are not going to show kills? Just have guys run around until the game ends suddenly for no apparent reason. That would be more exciting than the way Coh3 is right now.
26 Sep 2024, 05:38 AM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete LUL Melting bases :drool: Maybe someday I will watch a Coh3 stream. Ahhh who am I kidding, they will never add visible kill counts so I will never watch a stream of this trashy game :nahnah:
26 Sep 2024, 05:32 AM
Willy Pete: The winrates had literally never been more even over the last few months, and this patch gave us the largest spike yet. Pretty hard to top that.
25 Sep 2024, 23:19 PM
Willy Pete: July 1st 2023*
25 Sep 2024, 23:15 PM
Willy Pete: At least from July1st- present this is the worse. That's when coh3stats data begins
25 Sep 2024, 23:12 PM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone That depends on which LVs you're talking about. Seeing as ppl are melting HQs with LVs right now Id say no
25 Sep 2024, 23:09 PM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra I'm sure you think that lol. Statistically this is by far the worst
25 Sep 2024, 23:07 PM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete Did it do what it intended? To slow down the LV play?
25 Sep 2024, 22:34 PM
Rosbone: The really sad part is, you cant even try to help. You couldnt do an event and give people Coh3 licenses because tehre is a high chance they just uninstall 5 minutes after it loads the 1st time.
25 Sep 2024, 22:30 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete I'm sure the big tournament killing sapper spam was much worse, including egg-on-face-with-company-superiors
25 Sep 2024, 22:03 PM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone the irony is that 1.8 was by far their worst patch in terms of balance. combination of bugs and bad decisions
25 Sep 2024, 21:23 PM
Rosbone: Does anyone watch coh3 on mobile. The goofy UI and pulled back camera seems to make it too hard to watch on a small screen. On my 42" 4K it looks good. IPad, not so much.
25 Sep 2024, 19:59 PM
Rosbone: Why would you kill your own franchise and drive away your key employees?
25 Sep 2024, 19:57 PM
Rosbone: That is why many of the players will never come to Coh3. Too much is missing and there is little to no hope it will ever be added.
25 Sep 2024, 19:56 PM
Rosbone: Sounds dont suck you in. Lack of kills dont suck you in. There are simple key elements missing for players and viewers to enjoy the game. Bets on if they EVER are added. Since we are 1.8 years past release.
25 Sep 2024, 19:56 PM
Rosbone: So playing Coh3 is better. Watching it is still a joke. Thos guys are double vet and just had a big engagament and they have ??? kills now. Oooo how exciting. <444>_<444>
25 Sep 2024, 19:54 PM
Rosbone: On the plus side 1.80 has raised player counts to almost Coh2 levels. Lets us all pray they dont fold before the game gets to a good spot.
25 Sep 2024, 17:06 PM
jesulin: :guyokay:
25 Sep 2024, 07:37 AM
donofsandiego: Save some for me, Relic >:[
24 Sep 2024, 22:22 PM
Rosbone: :snfPeter:
24 Sep 2024, 22:17 PM
Rosbone: So if you are looking to gobble some gonads, think again.
24 Sep 2024, 22:16 PM
Rosbone: And dont go to an orgy with Relic, because they will suck all the balls. You wont get any. :snfPeter:
24 Sep 2024, 22:14 PM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego Because Relic will not focus on fun mechanics. They want the game to fail so they can write it off on taxes as a loss :snfPeter:
24 Sep 2024, 22:14 PM
donofsandiego: why can't we have a tactical catapult and/or circus cannon so we can redeploy paratroopers after they've entered the battlefield?
24 Sep 2024, 21:22 PM
Grim: classic relic patch
23 Sep 2024, 20:15 PM
Rosbone: Seems sus. <444>_<444>
23 Sep 2024, 16:59 PM
Rosbone: Even a few days after a patch. <444>_<444>
23 Sep 2024, 16:58 PM
Rosbone: Strange how Coh2 streams consistently have more viewers than Coh3. <444>_<444>
23 Sep 2024, 16:57 PM
KoRneY: it's pretty stupid yes. last night my team built ~20+ bikes, took control of the muni and just kamikazed their AT boys and then sent in 8 l6s at once. annihilation victories in ~8 minutes
23 Sep 2024, 14:19 PM
Willy Pete: Yeah and that's pretty fucking stupid considering L6s were already game breaking several patches ago
23 Sep 2024, 13:56 PM
KoRneY: not even getting to gustos, which are bugged. regardless, my point is that the game has been even more fucked in big game modes and it's gone on for a week+
23 Sep 2024, 13:55 PM
KoRneY: right now players can spam bikes, get map control, lose them, get 2cps and call in l6s and just cook your hq, which is broken on a 1v1 and can be as equally broken if a full 4v4 team does it
23 Sep 2024, 13:53 PM
KoRneY: it was when the ASC was buffed so strafes cost as much as grenades, were instant, killed infantry and light vehicles alike, so the more players there were, it got exponentially worse
23 Sep 2024, 13:51 PM
Willy Pete: In 2v2 at least, this is the biggest spike thats happened since the data was recorded: https://ibb.co/GxYV7g8
23 Sep 2024, 02:43 AM
Willy Pete: and if you look at the very next patch it flips right back the other way. coh lifecycle in a nutshell
23 Sep 2024, 02:39 AM
Willy Pete: @KoRneY this is in all 4 modes though. in your sample 1v1 is fine and 2v2 is iffy. 3s and 4s it was bad, and was probably caused by a terrible balance decision
23 Sep 2024, 02:38 AM
KoRneY: you should lay off of the reddit kool-aid
23 Sep 2024, 01:17 AM
KoRneY: it goes both ways, this isn't the first time they've let it coast at absurd rates https://coh3stats.com/stats/games?from=2023-07-25&to=2023-08-03&mode=4v4
23 Sep 2024, 01:08 AM
aerafield: hell, even Oranegepest almost lost a 1v1 couple days ago against some rank 200 turborandom who spammed 10 bikes into Guastas
22 Sep 2024, 22:57 PM
aerafield: What's also funny is how they nerfed Sappers within 20h when they were OP (this is good), but the DAK heroes are spamming Guastas since over 5 days now and the hotfix is only "in the pipeline"
22 Sep 2024, 22:56 PM
Willy Pete: I don't expect it to stay at 60 but I also don't recall it ever spiking that much. Except maybe once for the brits like a couple months after release. Can't remember what caused it
22 Sep 2024, 22:49 PM
Willy Pete: I can't comprehend how someone can defend a 60% winrate in every mode. Yeah it's soon but Ive seen you complain about US shortly after a patch when the winrates are dead even
22 Sep 2024, 19:08 PM
Willy Pete: Your winrate as DAK is also higher than as US? Couldn't have been junking that much
22 Sep 2024, 19:07 PM
Lady Xenarra: As opposed to my junking my ELO testing Flakvielring-absent strategies to see if everyone was just missing things and it could be nerfed because 'skill issue'? Or beneficial Axis bugs I reported like the recon tractor CDs?
22 Sep 2024, 18:56 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete It is me, my DAK ELO was lower back when I stopped playing USF 3v3. It's not like I stopped yesterday.
22 Sep 2024, 18:54 PM
Rosbone: PSA: Relic sucks.
22 Sep 2024, 17:48 PM
Willy Pete: To be clear, my playercard is very biased for US. Unlike you however, that doesn't stop me from suggesting they nerf things like Chafee, old ASC, etc. You are so cringe I'm starting to wonder if it's bait
22 Sep 2024, 17:20 PM
Willy Pete: Cause if it is your lying about your US elo
22 Sep 2024, 17:18 PM
aerafield: I see, and in CoH2 you sticked to OKW because the faction is just notorious for its extremely complex strategies, units that are hard to use, and horrible winrates in teamgames, amirite?
22 Sep 2024, 14:30 PM
Lady Xenarra: And you barely play the game so why the huge complaints about balance?
22 Sep 2024, 13:50 PM
Lady Xenarra: I stopped playing USF 3v3 last patch once I beat my DAK ELO and realised the faction was making me get worse at the game. There were easy tools for every contingency. I found the situation even worse than I realised from the Axis perspective.
22 Sep 2024, 13:50 PM
aerafield: Who said I was only talking about 4v4?? And for the last time too, it's ok to play only one side and being biased AF as a result, but at least own up to it. You want the game to be patched in a way that you get easier games with the faction that YOU like
22 Sep 2024, 13:29 PM
Lady Xenarra: Last bit is @aerafield.
22 Sep 2024, 11:07 AM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete Every major balance patch the topic of WR % comes up in the first week if not days. And everytime, for all factions, it is too early to tell. And for the last time, 4v4 is not possible to balance.
22 Sep 2024, 11:05 AM
PatFenis: DevM taking the bag and rid himself of relic. Good for him.
22 Sep 2024, 08:06 AM
Willy Pete: And would be encouraging patience if US or UK had a 60% winrate in every mode
22 Sep 2024, 00:31 AM
aerafield: Surely you as axis main would also defend a bug that makes already strong allies units like Grants or Bishops completely overpowered :foreveralone:
21 Sep 2024, 21:00 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield They already announced they'll do a hotfix on it. But tbh the armour didn't mean much anyway in the face of proliferated LMGs in every squad you'll face
21 Sep 2024, 14:43 PM
Willy Pete: We know someone who approves :rolleyes:
21 Sep 2024, 13:38 PM
aerafield: ok yeah, there is the confirmation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJs6USO81wI&t=2759s
21 Sep 2024, 11:33 AM
OKSpitfire: Wow, has the satchel come back too? Will have to get my jollies in before they fix it, haha.
21 Sep 2024, 10:33 AM
aerafield: So, apparently they forgot to remove armor from Guastatori, turning them into near unstoppable terminator. No wonder so many DAK one-tricks rush them atm
21 Sep 2024, 09:16 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra pretty sure you have more in common with them then you realize
20 Sep 2024, 20:21 PM
Rosbone: Dont most people play all the factions? Classic RTS loss deflection I am guessing :snfMarcus:
20 Sep 2024, 19:07 PM
Lady Xenarra: Ofc you're getting your ass murdered by ppl who don't have a handicap any more. It's just the AT Boys situation again
20 Sep 2024, 19:05 PM
Lady Xenarra: These fragile ego ppl couldn’t take -ONE- day about DAKgrens and L6s. Damn, imagine if you had 6 months of LV spam walking you off the map and had to win vs such odds. :rofl:
20 Sep 2024, 19:02 PM
Rosbone: I would pay cash money to hear those tapes.
19 Sep 2024, 22:52 PM
aerafield: @voltardark ah yes, pls give us a tool to insult & yell at our teammates with 0 consequences since Relic would have to save the audio recordings in order to moderate it. which they can't :snfPeter:
19 Sep 2024, 21:22 PM
voltardark: We need voice communication to improved team match quality.
19 Sep 2024, 12:52 PM
Rosbone: PS: Cloaca
19 Sep 2024, 04:53 AM
Rosbone: Wait. What? Relic did something so stupid it ruins the game? No way!!! You must be mistaken. :snfPeter:
19 Sep 2024, 04:52 AM
aerafield: agree, this was the worst option they could have chosen as default
19 Sep 2024, 00:58 AM
Lady Xenarra: Relic, why would you change the default chat settings to stop ppl from sending chat? This costs ppl matches
18 Sep 2024, 23:34 PM
aerafield: you guys must have dropped before then, there is no leaver penalty after the 1st drop
18 Sep 2024, 22:52 PM
adamírcz: ok, this is golden, their unstable spaghetti coded bullshit gets stuck on loading screen, so unable to do anything, we altf4 and then get the leaver penalty for that
18 Sep 2024, 21:32 PM
adamírcz: however, the map additions, and one for each teamgame mode, are breathing some much needed life into the game
18 Sep 2024, 20:23 PM
adamírcz: dead site indeed
18 Sep 2024, 20:01 PM
Rosbone: With active support you would expect patches like "Wow! That is really cool!". Instead we get "Well, its a good start. Talk to me in 3 months." excitement.
18 Sep 2024, 17:05 PM
Rosbone: It is sad to see Coh3 in the same state Coh2 was at its end of life. New patch, people get excited for about an hour or two then move on. It is a new game being actively "supported" and it feels like a 13 year old game as far as excitement goes.
18 Sep 2024, 17:03 PM
Rosbone: also dead site.
18 Sep 2024, 17:00 PM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego Your insanity is Relics fault. If coh3 was not complete trash you would be playing it and not thinking. #soma
18 Sep 2024, 16:59 PM
Rosbone: A@aerafield I agree, RTS players are a special breed of moron. But it may help if you could talk since it is easier to explain what you are trying to say.
18 Sep 2024, 16:58 PM
donofsandiego: also dead site
18 Sep 2024, 12:50 PM
donofsandiego: I am fluent in insanity
18 Sep 2024, 12:49 PM
aerafield: suggesting default voicechat between strangers when it can't even be moderated at all, in one of the saltiest communities. What could possibly go wrong :snfPeter:
18 Sep 2024, 11:52 AM
Rosbone: @voltardark Are you fluent in Chinese, Russian, etc? If no, then voice comms wont help at all for many players.
17 Sep 2024, 22:22 PM
voltardark: Coh3 just need voice communications, its a marvelous game !!1
17 Sep 2024, 21:55 PM
Lady Xenarra: RIP 4 rifle builds, you will not be missed.
17 Sep 2024, 20:36 PM
Rosbone: "We hold these truths to be self evident."
17 Sep 2024, 17:43 PM
Rosbone: Coh1 had each style of kill visible. Coh2 screwed it up and only showed total kills. Coh3 just erased it. Its easy to see that the smart people keep leaving Relic and the morons stay.
17 Sep 2024, 17:41 PM
Rosbone: 5 years of dev time we know of. 1.6 years post release and they still dont have a plan for saving the game. :rofl:
17 Sep 2024, 17:32 PM
Rosbone: When will they wonder why the remaining streamers only stream Coh3 for a day or two after a patch then play something else?
17 Sep 2024, 17:31 PM
Rosbone: When will the community manager start wondering why all of the Coh2 streamers have left? Especially team games.
17 Sep 2024, 17:09 PM
Rosbone: Coh3 still just a stain on the Coh legacy :romeoMug:
17 Sep 2024, 17:08 PM
Rosbone: Still no visible kill counts. The incompetence continues... No donuts for you! Bad Relic! No Relic! No!
17 Sep 2024, 17:06 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Indeed, strain thine ears this very moment, and you can almost hear the groan of useless words before they too are snatched into the void...
17 Sep 2024, 05:51 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: The tales tell that, at the end of time, when dust fills the halls of humanity's venal works, one will still hear an echoing voice in the COH2.org shoutbox, crying about 4v4 balance...
17 Sep 2024, 05:50 AM
donofsandiego: muerte
16 Sep 2024, 21:16 PM
Lady Xenarra: I wonder if Guastatori will get buffed next patch. The rifle penetration changes could hurt them quite a bit.
16 Sep 2024, 16:40 PM
donofsandiego: dead website
16 Sep 2024, 12:16 PM
Rosbone: Hes not wrong. Coh2 match making is trash. These are facts not in dispute.
16 Sep 2024, 05:08 AM
Willy Pete: Lol, whatever you do guys, don't buy coh2. You heard it here first
15 Sep 2024, 23:53 PM
aerafield: ok

14 Sep 2024, 12:33 PM
adamírcz: But overall, I already love the patch
13 Sep 2024, 18:07 PM
adamírcz: Also, it kinda saddens me that I didnt see any mention of loiters removal from the game in that post summarising the Relic stream
13 Sep 2024, 16:31 PM
adamírcz: The fact that they act more like mainline part of an army has been quite the improvement, if it wasnt for it degenarating into braindead gg pushes
13 Sep 2024, 16:28 PM
adamírcz: Not that there werent plenty busted rn, but hopefully they keep some relevance in lategame, just more based around flanking and using mobility, and less around frontal rushes with 5 of them
13 Sep 2024, 16:27 PM
adamírcz: I hope this LV nerfing is gonna be smart and cautious
13 Sep 2024, 16:22 PM
aerafield: USF vs Wehr would be fine if it wasn't for the most recent BG aimed at ape cavemen gameplay aka blob 5+ coastal squads and officer around a bunker
13 Sep 2024, 13:40 PM
aerafield: Just so much stuff that USF has a hard time dealing with. What if he rushes 2cm combat HT? What if he blobs? What if he rushes flak/8Rad etc
13 Sep 2024, 13:36 PM
aerafield: Whenever I play DAK, I am intimidated by brit opponents. But against USF I already know it's gonna be an easy cakewalk if I just follow a certain build order and tactic
13 Sep 2024, 13:33 PM
aerafield: the whole USF vs DAK matchup is particularly stupid. If you buy early rifle upgrades, then flak or 8Rad will baselock you. If you don't, then pgrens win every fight
13 Sep 2024, 13:31 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra I have absolutely no clue what game you are playing, but USF needs to spend up to 60 fuel or more for their riflemen to beat DAK panzgergrens who get emotional support by a 250 sitting next to them.
13 Sep 2024, 13:29 PM
donofsandiego: :wub:
13 Sep 2024, 00:56 AM
donofsandiego: I love how @aerafield is standing up for 4v4 nerds like me
13 Sep 2024, 00:55 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra yeah FV still ruins a lot of games for me. either by killing it right away and coasting or by getting wrecked by someone with amazing micro
12 Sep 2024, 22:35 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete It's now redundant with the new patch coming, but needing T2+ and VSL to match Rifles even at far range is bad balancing. It's a big reason why Flakvierling is oppressive.
12 Sep 2024, 21:15 PM
Willy Pete: It's clearly not an issue for DAK
12 Sep 2024, 21:03 PM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra but pay more to scale to late game. what's the problem here?
12 Sep 2024, 21:02 PM
Rosbone: Dead Game.
12 Sep 2024, 20:43 PM
Rosbone: So Mono made a couple maps and Mirage+Tar made some bal changes. And it took 2 months????????????????
12 Sep 2024, 20:43 PM
Lady Xenarra: LV spammers are definitely getting hit hard this patch
12 Sep 2024, 19:11 PM
Rosbone: T minus 1 hour for Coh3 feet reveal stream :banana:
12 Sep 2024, 15:59 PM
aerafield: because "best mainline" is so damn meaningful in 3v3 and 4v4 and their map pools :snfPeter:
12 Sep 2024, 11:54 AM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete 260 MP and 26 MP reinforce whilst actually being better stat-wise than DAKgrens who are 300 MP, 28 reinforce. At least until VSL + CA + LMG
12 Sep 2024, 10:55 AM
donofsandiego: it's the price you paid for a global upgrade
12 Sep 2024, 04:37 AM
donofsandiego: you don't understand. the untermenschen must purchase their grenades at a premium while the true heroes of the fatherland get them for free
12 Sep 2024, 04:36 AM
Willy Pete: How exactly are riflemen cheap? 300mp and 55 fuel just to unlock nades + 1 bar
12 Sep 2024, 00:59 AM
Lady Xenarra: Surely there must be some price to pay for all these goodies.....
11 Sep 2024, 21:34 PM
Lady Xenarra: dogshit as opposed to having a mainline that is both cheap and better than its contemporaries? The best LVs? The best mediums? Not counting Panther as a med here.
11 Sep 2024, 21:33 PM
aerafield: Im telling you, CoH3 USF is the worst designed teamgame faction in CoH history
11 Sep 2024, 20:57 PM
aerafield: It's not like the dogshit faction USF has that many other options at dealing with defensive positions. Vet 1 mortar is neat but dies instantly in lategame, and planes get shot down
11 Sep 2024, 20:55 PM
Lady Xenarra: Ah yes, dive the FlaK 36,great idea. Clearly some ppl have had it too ez with UKF teammates and 17 pounders
11 Sep 2024, 19:03 PM
Rosbone: On the flip side, I would buy donuts for the office everyday if they add visible kill counts. The choice is theirs.
11 Sep 2024, 01:52 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield LOL Actually I was always annoyed when people trashed Relic on stream. I would never do that. Now mail a box of turds to their offices? Hmmmm. :snfPeter:
11 Sep 2024, 01:51 AM
Willy Pete: Rosboner has entered the chat
10 Sep 2024, 21:40 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone where's your dedication? I already expect you to spam their chat on thursday with 20 different throwaway accounts :snfPeter:
10 Sep 2024, 19:08 PM
Rosbone: Dont forget to spam Relic sucks on the stream thursday 1:00pm PST :megusta:
10 Sep 2024, 17:24 PM
Rosbone: What is worse about Coh3: That people hate it? Or people just dont care about it at all? Like its not worth their time to bother with.
10 Sep 2024, 17:22 PM
donofsandiego: amogus
09 Sep 2024, 02:57 AM
adamírcz: And no news on that over here, sadge
08 Sep 2024, 13:51 PM
adamírcz: There is a 2vs2 tournament in COH3 on twitch
08 Sep 2024, 13:51 PM
Rosbone: @Lady Xenarra Ahhh much better. :romeoHairDay:
05 Sep 2024, 01:57 AM
Lady Xenarra: @Rosbone Axes OP. There, happy?
04 Sep 2024, 12:12 PM
Rosbone: shweeeewwwrrwwww [tumbleweed]
03 Sep 2024, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: Does Coh2 or Coh3 store the VP counts for matches. I dont recall ever seeing them. Seems important for tournaments, etc.
02 Sep 2024, 03:39 AM
Rosbone: NY Times crossword. 5 Letters starts with R. A thing of the past. :snfPeter:
31 Aug 2024, 22:05 PM
donofsandiego: you might make a pretty penny if you start charging Sega rent
31 Aug 2024, 18:07 PM
Rosbone: Sega does not own Relic anymore, so you cant report them as being a terrible company that abuses their customers to their own detriment. You could send a message to the new owners maybe? :snfPeter:
27 Aug 2024, 18:14 PM
mk12sk: how can i report
24 Aug 2024, 13:52 PM
Katitof: you play concord and are happy with it probably
24 Aug 2024, 10:53 AM
Rosbone: Is it inverse marketing? Get the word out the game is trash and people will buy it just to see for themselves? I mean, I have watched a few movies for that reason but it didnt cost me $70. ???
24 Aug 2024, 04:15 AM
Rosbone: I cant see any other angle. No one is that stupid. Are they? As a group of educated people they came up with crapping on heir customers and are doubling down on it. No way I believe that.
24 Aug 2024, 04:13 AM
Rosbone: We need Cobra to go deep and figure out why Relic is trying to kill off their own IP. Dead serious. They must make money from bad sales and low player counts. Its gotta be a thing.
24 Aug 2024, 04:11 AM
Rosbone: Go to a McDonalds. They spit in your food. Then charge you double because you complained about the order and service. How delusional are Relic? Seriously?
24 Aug 2024, 04:09 AM
Rosbone: The irony of being banned is I wouldnt play coh3 for cash money. You couldnt get a decent game in Coh2 with twice the players. And if you leave a shit coh3 game you are punished. :lolol:
24 Aug 2024, 04:07 AM
aerafield: teamgame meta is still complete trash
23 Aug 2024, 22:55 PM
voltardark: The game is great now, just pass the world !
23 Aug 2024, 19:01 PM
IJustDontCare: Everyone just seems to forget how bad coh2 was when it came out and it took years before it actually got good. Every update will improve the game and the best part about Coh3 is the Engine its built on can add a lot of future endless possibilites. Hope
23 Aug 2024, 02:18 AM
Rosbone: Serious talk though: Did Coh2 have periods like Coh3 where no one is streaming or playing. Community feels dead right now. Were there peaks when patches came out then lulls after?
22 Aug 2024, 21:59 PM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete Well actually Kat has the dick part covered where I am more in the unhinged area. Between us all we make up a normal psyche :romeoBANG:
22 Aug 2024, 16:59 PM
Willy Pete: Pot meet kettle
22 Aug 2024, 15:16 PM
Katitof: I feel like that train already left the station for you, seem pretty nuts for months now :romeoHype:
22 Aug 2024, 12:00 PM
Rosbone: I have net heard much complaining about having 3 story buildings everywhere? That would drive me nuts.
22 Aug 2024, 11:14 AM
Rosbone: Finally realizing the buildings on WB are there for a strategic reason :snfDevm:
18 Aug 2024, 20:24 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone Never thought Id say this but Whiteball Express in CoH3 wheennn :bananadance::sibHyena:
18 Aug 2024, 12:49 PM
aerafield: The massive dps buff they added to units inside garrisons seems like a horrible change so that doesn't help either
18 Aug 2024, 12:46 PM
aerafield: Idk why exactly but while I loved urban warfare/maps in CoH2, I absolutely despise it in CoH3. Literally all my vetoes are spent on the maps with 1 million buildings
18 Aug 2024, 12:44 PM
sluzbenik: the lord's micro prayer: lord, I will play like more of a coward than the other guy. I will take no chances with my units, I will retreat them all in time, and I will only exploit his mistakes.
17 Aug 2024, 00:56 AM
OKSpitfire: I don't really play 2 anymore, so I don't know. Sorry. Apparently though map-hacking has become a pretty big problem since it's stopped being supported.
16 Aug 2024, 14:09 PM
Musmula: Ah I guess coh2 didn't update for 2 years now, hope some old bugs got fixed before updates stopped
15 Aug 2024, 21:33 PM
Musmula: For coh2
15 Aug 2024, 21:25 PM
Musmula: Is there still somewhere to see up to date patch notes and patches in general? Didn't play in a few years
15 Aug 2024, 21:24 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Two new battlegroups all the way in February? What they needed to announce was an actual expansion.
15 Aug 2024, 21:14 PM
aerafield: :o
15 Aug 2024, 17:32 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Looks like you'll get your wish of heavy tanks in Feb. If the screaming isn't too much to handle of course.
15 Aug 2024, 17:29 PM
Rosbone: Anybody know of anyone else who got rehired though? That was a class move on Relics part. Props to them for that. <444>3
15 Aug 2024, 06:28 AM
Rosbone: When you are getting outclassed by a single guy making a Squid Game copy, you should just hang it up bro.
15 Aug 2024, 06:27 AM
Rosbone: My point was if you are going to announce something, give details. Coh3 will enver be good, I could care less about it. B-)
15 Aug 2024, 06:26 AM
aerafield: @Rosbone on the discord server where you are banned :guyokay:

14 Aug 2024, 16:31 PM
pathnnn: There were three identical Tommy hit rate bulletins, and the other one had the same 5% walking stuka reload time reduction bulletins
14 Aug 2024, 13:25 PM
pathnnn: But just yesterday, I saw a guy who stacked three identical intelbulletins
14 Aug 2024, 13:23 PM
aerafield: and this is only at vet 0: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMrzU-pUop0
14 Aug 2024, 13:19 PM
aerafield: aka RIP machinegun pak40 with triple reload bulletin
14 Aug 2024, 13:18 PM
aerafield: @pathnnn this is not possible anymore since over 6 years when they removed duplicates (you can only sell them for 500 coins now)
14 Aug 2024, 13:15 PM
pathnnn: Does anyone know how to overlap 3 of the same intelbulletin?
14 Aug 2024, 13:05 PM
KoRneY: You say it doesn't matter, I agree. I even titled the picture 'itdoesntmatter'
10 Aug 2024, 20:17 PM
Willy Pete: @KoRneY I'm aware. Was speaking to both of you
10 Aug 2024, 17:37 PM
KoRneY: Yeah Willy Pete, that's the point 😂 Taking a specific point of data and saying that "this is why xy is or isn't OPEE" is dumb as fuck
10 Aug 2024, 08:34 AM
UpalNamochennyy: как получить присасы в CoH2?
09 Aug 2024, 15:13 PM
Willy Pete: Also how are these sorted? For 1600+ do both players have to be over that? Like what if some of those games are a 1700 vs 1300
08 Aug 2024, 03:08 AM
Willy Pete: None of those "slices" matter. The largest sample size either of you posteed was 352 games? Nowehere near enough
08 Aug 2024, 03:07 AM
KoRneY: here's another convenient vertical slice for you https://www.coh2.org/file/20993/itdoesntmatterin2v2either.jpg
07 Aug 2024, 17:54 PM
KoRneY: Or is balance more of a factor in team games where people can get together and seal club noobs in 3v3 and 4v4
07 Aug 2024, 17:40 PM
KoRneY: DAK 1v1 performance doesn't matter to you because you don't play 1v1.
07 Aug 2024, 17:39 PM
aerafield: In teamgames however this is a very easy thing to do, and then pgrens are most certainly the best non-elite mainline infantry
07 Aug 2024, 12:29 PM
aerafield: DAK performance in 1v1 doesn't mean a lot, it is expected to be on the bad side since Panzergrens are practically useless, you can't hug your inf with vehicles at all times to get the very important combined arms bonus
07 Aug 2024, 12:28 PM
KoRneY: maybe they are a bit strong? verticle slice of data doesn't do much https://www.coh2.org/file/20992/itdoesntmatter.jpg

06 Aug 2024, 17:15 PM
Rosbone: Tis dread mon. Dread.
06 Aug 2024, 06:21 AM
Rosbone: It also appears Relic has let the Coh3 website die. Mus be focusing on Discord and Steam only? Last news I see is 1.6 patch.
06 Aug 2024, 06:18 AM
Rosbone: The hidden kill counts probably screws up games also. Throw some arty and start waving your mouse around to see the kill counts... and your team mate gets rekt. Well played Relic. Well played. F**king clowns.
06 Aug 2024, 06:09 AM
Rosbone: Relic did good getting some 1v1 guys and 2v2. But they could also use a 4v4 player. Its is abundantly clear they dont have one. Pings suck. 4v4 balance is off. etc. Anyone offering up some help? :megusta:
06 Aug 2024, 06:07 AM
aerafield: Wehr has a doc since 8 months that rewards you for playing like an ape (coastal), and as DAK you outplay the entire USF faction design by sitting on your ass with flak, pak and pgren in green cover and turtle forward. Time to nerf an annoying brit unit :)
06 Aug 2024, 00:59 AM
aerafield: Axis absolutely dominating higher ELO in teamgames since last patch and the axis mains still whine about the Dingo :sibHyena: https://www.coh2.org/file/20991/3v3stats.png
06 Aug 2024, 00:52 AM
Lady Xenarra: Any particular reason the Dingo 30 cal has 4.8-7.2 pen, which puts it on par with an AUTOCANNON?
06 Aug 2024, 00:37 AM
Lady Xenarra: Ahh I have found the key the the Dingo problem, sneaky UKF mains thought it wouldn't be noticed

donofsandiego: Men of War 2 does this. It's quite nice.
03 Aug 2024, 03:01 AM
donofsandiego: then all you have to do is have an option to mute voicelines from non-friends or muted players and bam; off to the races.
03 Aug 2024, 03:00 AM
donofsandiego: they do an "armor here" ping and their faction narrator of choice says it over the radio in your own language
03 Aug 2024, 02:58 AM
donofsandiego: Nah Rosbone is speaking straight facts though. What would really be nice is to have multiple ping types that have voicelines that are localized to the player's native language. I.E. instead of your russian teammate typing to you in cyrilic,
03 Aug 2024, 02:58 AM
Willy Pete: More ping types? How many do you need??
03 Aug 2024, 02:35 AM

02 Aug 2024, 21:37 PM
Rosbone: Coh3 first ever evolution of a game that went backwards instead of forwards. So shameful.
02 Aug 2024, 17:45 PM
Rosbone: I suggested more ping types so language is not an issue. Did Relic do it? No of course not. They dont play Coh so they are clueless wonders. Worst gaming company ever.
02 Aug 2024, 17:44 PM
Willy Pete: Region ladders? Yeah no thanks, I don't feel like waiting 30 mins to find a match
02 Aug 2024, 16:35 PM
Indische_Legion: Plus teamwork is better with a common language chat rather than incessant passive aggressive pings... Region ladders would've made sense so that people don't bitch about ping as an issue
02 Aug 2024, 16:27 PM
Indische_Legion: It's almost like a system which has institutionalized this hate :) Sounds familiar to something else...
02 Aug 2024, 16:26 PM
Indische_Legion: @aerafield They access the game from gaming cafes which assure wins so that people come to their gaming cafe. These cafes have esps and mods. Plus the game was free for them so there's a saturation of such accounts.

Rosbone: 1966 Batman show graphics and horn blasts hit harder than any tank in coh3. Zzzzz
02 Aug 2024, 02:35 AM
Rosbone: 2v2 tourney is coming and people are practicing so there are a lot of great games to watch. But its so boring my mind wanders off after like 30 seconds. "These guys are a really good team gonna be so ... boring!"
02 Aug 2024, 02:34 AM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete I agree its getting better. But the sound and lack of kill counts is the killer. No drama for a viewer. Woosh! Zing! Sqwuuosh! It got vet, but I have no idea why.
02 Aug 2024, 02:31 AM
Willy Pete: Pretty sure it's always gonna be unwatchable to someone who doesn't play it? I criticize coh3 quite a bit but its by far the best its ever been atm
02 Aug 2024, 01:52 AM
Rosbone: Relic playing the long game. Driving me from the community by making coh3 be completely unwatchable. Well played Relic. Well played. You win.
01 Aug 2024, 20:02 PM
NigelBallsworth: I don't understand that last thing about the Axis tanks ?
27 Jul 2024, 21:54 PM
Willy Pete: You really can't stop yourself can you
27 Jul 2024, 13:07 PM
Lady Xenarra: Oh and has 160 pen at far because reasons.
27 Jul 2024, 12:15 PM
Lady Xenarra: WTB for Axis 90 FU tank after 50 FU unlock that deletes all mediums and is the best in the game at killing inf, except for maybe Brumm/Tiger.
27 Jul 2024, 12:12 PM
adamírcz: yeah, that was my personal meta about half an year ago :D kinda glad thats still in
25 Jul 2024, 22:57 PM
aerafield: if it's a large map with flanking routes, mechanized company with vehicle/tank spam and seek & destroy should work too
24 Jul 2024, 22:19 PM
adamírcz: hmm, was afraid so, thx
24 Jul 2024, 21:56 PM
aerafield: @adamírcz best you can do is probably rangers with ISC, but USF kinda sucks donkeyshit in 3s and 4s to be honest, at least compared to brits
24 Jul 2024, 21:19 PM
adamírcz: Whats a good USF meta for 3s and 4s... or not quite meta but good build?
24 Jul 2024, 20:27 PM
adamírcz: well, that sounds good
24 Jul 2024, 20:26 PM
sluzbenik: how is everyone so good at retreating in time in this game? it boggles my mind.
24 Jul 2024, 20:11 PM
Willy Pete: Blame US. That 50.2% winrate in 1v1 is too high, it should be below 50% like the rest of them :rolleyes:
24 Jul 2024, 14:10 PM
aerafield: Allies so OP, I've never seen the axis searchrate drop below 60% in any of the teamgame modes :foreveralone:
24 Jul 2024, 13:47 PM
Lady Xenarra: Or Wiesel into double M8
23 Jul 2024, 19:50 PM
Lady Xenarra: @adamírcz The cancer you are looking for is Jeep into double M8
23 Jul 2024, 19:49 PM
Willy Pete: Yeah that sounds terrible tbh
23 Jul 2024, 13:30 PM
adamírcz: ok, nv mind, good players mop the floor with it
23 Jul 2024, 12:08 PM
adamírcz: I havent yet done enough testing, but isnt USF armour company instavet1 jeep into quick double M16 seriously busted in 1vs1 and some 2vs2?
23 Jul 2024, 10:21 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra Nah, don't think I am. LIke I told you, I already said I think its OP. Relax...
20 Jul 2024, 21:51 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra eh, so far the Dingo didn't feel that oppressive since my comeback. You just hug heavy cover and that's boring. You lose map control but regardless it's not hard to get t1 and then rush 250/9 2cm combat halftracks
20 Jul 2024, 12:49 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete You're completely missing the point
20 Jul 2024, 12:07 PM
Willy Pete: Then stop sending bikes at it lol
20 Jul 2024, 11:04 AM
Lady Xenarra: It's doing it consistently too.
19 Jul 2024, 23:45 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete I've seen it eat a mine and beat a full HP bike right after
19 Jul 2024, 23:45 PM
Willy Pete: Its dumb as hell that it survives a mine, but welcome to CoH
19 Jul 2024, 19:37 PM
Willy Pete: I also think its OP but that clip is far from a great example. I thought it was gonna kill both and survive based on your framing
19 Jul 2024, 19:34 PM
Lady Xenarra: Maybe we'll get a 3rd patch with no nerfs to it? :rofl:
19 Jul 2024, 18:29 PM
Lady Xenarra: Yes, Dingo is very balanced /s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=511uWUW5ZNc
19 Jul 2024, 18:26 PM
adamírcz: also, spending some time in CoH3 makes coming back to CoH2 such pain, wtf were they thinking with the controls in that game, roflmao
19 Jul 2024, 14:52 PM
adamírcz: though other units now need some love, like most CQBs
19 Jul 2024, 14:51 PM
adamírcz: not a fan of the ttk changes, but can accept it and find positives in it
19 Jul 2024, 14:50 PM
OKSpitfire: Nah Nigel, Guasta were never that broken, they've pretty much always lost to Gurkhas.
19 Jul 2024, 07:51 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra sure rangers are crazy, but that means little for US in the big picture.
18 Jul 2024, 19:55 PM
SupremeStefan: Great patch, dont touch my dingo pls
18 Jul 2024, 19:35 PM
Lady Xenarra: Well tbh, they've been doing it for the last 12 months if we're honest.....
18 Jul 2024, 18:09 PM
Lady Xenarra: @NigelBallsworth Fair enough, but I've spent the last 4 months with ppl charging Rifles into Guastatori or slugging it out. Not talking low ELO players here either
18 Jul 2024, 18:04 PM
Katitof: I find rifles to be much easier to deal with, dingo still as oppressive as ever
18 Jul 2024, 17:31 PM
NigelBallsworth: maybe it just doesn't feel good that Allies have some good units now ?
18 Jul 2024, 17:17 PM
NigelBallsworth: @Lady Xenarra I find it difficult to take your comments about Rangers seriously when your avatar is a portrait of guastatori; who were goddamn unchallenged terminators before rangers came along
18 Jul 2024, 17:17 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete Rangers. That said, it seems like Riflemen have replaced Rangers now as mainline of choice from what I have seen.
18 Jul 2024, 16:27 PM
Willy Pete: were*
18 Jul 2024, 15:38 PM
Willy Pete: and how we're they strong pre-patch? as someone who avoided rangers for 2 months they certainly didnt feel that strong
18 Jul 2024, 15:38 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete 2v2 mainly but the same factors also apply to 3v3 I'd say.
18 Jul 2024, 15:32 PM
Willy Pete: in my elo bracket (1400-1600) US had an 8 pt winrate disadvantage on last patch in 2v2. very curious what you mean by strong faction pre-patch...
18 Jul 2024, 14:55 PM
Willy Pete: *you're already complaining it must be bad
18 Jul 2024, 14:53 PM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra after 2 days dude? and in what modes? if you
18 Jul 2024, 14:51 PM
Von Kluge: So who's still alive here
18 Jul 2024, 12:15 PM
Lady Xenarra: I think it's clear to say that USF, already a strong faction pre-patch, now is overwhelmingly powerful.
18 Jul 2024, 10:09 AM

17 Jul 2024, 17:12 PM
OKSpitfire: Exactly, you would think an official version of that wouldn't be completely unreasonable to maintain. But hey, it's Relic.
17 Jul 2024, 16:41 PM
Willy Pete: Shouldnt be that hard. You have community ppl who do it practically for free
17 Jul 2024, 16:39 PM
OKSpitfire: Before the game came out I was one of those people enthusiastically hoping that there might so some sort of in-game wiki for units that we could all refer to, which is pretty hilarious in retrospect.
17 Jul 2024, 16:30 PM
OKSpitfire: Sorry, I didn't mean that in a bad or mocking way. You never know, they may genuinely get to it eventually, it's just funny that it's taken THIS long for such basic stuff to be added in.
17 Jul 2024, 16:29 PM
Rosbone: @OKSpitfire Yep. And Relic will keep beating the 17 icons above a units head drum. Looks so amatuer. So I give up on this game ever being good for me. But glad its moving for you guys.
17 Jul 2024, 16:17 PM
OKSpitfire: Keep banging the killcount drum, Rosbone! :D
17 Jul 2024, 10:37 AM
OKSpitfire: And I thought the sound was a lost cause, perhaps it was the sheer volume of complaints in all of those satisfaction surveys.
17 Jul 2024, 10:37 AM
Katitof: new sounds are also on point
17 Jul 2024, 10:27 AM
Katitof: inf lethality changes will require getting used to tho, back to coh2 paranoia in that regard
17 Jul 2024, 10:11 AM
Rosbone: Cheers 'til then gentlemen.
17 Jul 2024, 05:55 AM
Rosbone: Dec Patch was great. This was the next good step to a great game. So maybe 6 more months and the game will be great. Still no kill counts. But great.
17 Jul 2024, 05:53 AM
Rosbone: j/k I like the things they tried to work on. And seeing Tarnation back was amazing. Stoked! Well done Relic. <golf clap>
17 Jul 2024, 05:52 AM
Rosbone: No visible kill counts... I guess they have chosen the way of pain.
17 Jul 2024, 05:50 AM
Katitof: but new 250/9 is sweet with new AGs
16 Jul 2024, 20:35 PM
Katitof: literally used a single one in 250 since forever, because it was more effective then sad excuse of mainline PGs are
16 Jul 2024, 20:34 PM
aerafield: @Katitof Panzerjäger cheeseblobber spotted :snfBarton:
16 Jul 2024, 20:29 PM
Katitof: not gonna lie, I truly admire relics commitment to keep nerfing DAK panzerjagers in every single patch since release
16 Jul 2024, 19:47 PM
PatFenis: Glad that they FINALLY added descriptions to active buffs & debuffs. But it took almost 1 1/2 years for this to happen. Better late than never I suppose
16 Jul 2024, 19:34 PM
Lady Xenarra: @OKSpitfire I have many concerns about these balance changes but will do lots of testing before I make any solid conclusions. DAK seems to be in more trouble now though.
16 Jul 2024, 19:01 PM
OKSpitfire: No, there's way more people on the official forums. Oh and I only just realised it's patch time.
16 Jul 2024, 18:26 PM
Muad&#039;Dib: Coming back after a long hiatus, is this still the most active CoH 3 community? 'Cuz active, it ain't...
16 Jul 2024, 18:06 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah they are still too lethal for how early they come out. I know Sturmpioneers had great wipe potential from the off, but at least they fell off hard as the game went on.
16 Jul 2024, 14:22 PM
Lady Xenarra: Speaking of which, I hope they give Rangers a serious look if they’re shortening TTK. Otherwise Axis will be well and truly in life support no matter your skill
16 Jul 2024, 12:35 PM
Lady Xenarra: @donofsandiego You already have paradropped elite Infantry in planes that are immune to 88mm cannons
16 Jul 2024, 12:34 PM
donofsandiego: I dig the sci-fi magic. Can we have partisans emerging from the ground through holes in the ground like Skavenslaves?
14 Jul 2024, 22:55 PM
NigelBallsworth: not exactly; stumbling into that unaware will still cost you a few models at least, even if you retreat right away.
14 Jul 2024, 11:58 AM
Lady Xenarra: Cloaked inf*
14 Jul 2024, 10:38 AM
Lady Xenarra: 80% of the problem of dealing with Funkwagen cloaked big is ppl who commit to slugging it out, expecting their usual right click move tactics to work fine.
14 Jul 2024, 10:38 AM
Willy Pete: Balance wise its a non issue imo. Only ever felt oppressed by it against much higher elo
14 Jul 2024, 03:30 AM
Willy Pete: Stealth in coh games has always looked kinda silly. But yeah this might be the silliest it's ever looked
14 Jul 2024, 03:30 AM
NigelBallsworth: even funnier when you look at the animation for the truck, with magical blue waves coming off of it. lol
13 Jul 2024, 23:50 PM
NigelBallsworth: even funnier because it's not just one unit, like a sniper or para squad, but it's like a huge mob of guys in the middle of an otherwise open area. Like, everybody under the invisibility cloak !
13 Jul 2024, 23:50 PM
NigelBallsworth: Kat, I only said that it's hilarious. As if the designers literally said, "you know what would be hilarious ? Let's give these fuckers invisibilty"
13 Jul 2024, 18:05 PM
Willy Pete: At least it's not bugged anymore but it's value is still too much imo
12 Jul 2024, 23:08 PM
Willy Pete: Nerf rangers, FV, dingo, and nebelwerfer. Blows my mind that Nebel still only costs MP
12 Jul 2024, 23:05 PM
Katitof: NigelBallsworth weird way to ask which allied units have flares and detection
12 Jul 2024, 21:14 PM
Smartie: Very curious which units will get a rework
12 Jul 2024, 18:48 PM
Smartie: rangers, dingo, flakvierling all need nerfs
12 Jul 2024, 18:47 PM
NigelBallsworth: we're just not going to talk about invisble Axis troops ? probably the most hilarious thing for me so far.
12 Jul 2024, 18:26 PM
Katitof: and what are going willing to buff for dak to compensate? because that ht is not being used because its op, its used, because its only thing that works
12 Jul 2024, 07:44 AM
SupremeStefan: most needed nerfs: Dak flak halftruck and rangers rest is fine

01 Jul 2024, 15:31 PM
Willy Pete: Tbh I doubt it. Coh3 isn't good enough. Forums are already a dying breed but add in a disappointing game... not a great recipe
30 Jun 2024, 23:18 PM
Nickbn: Maybe we should do our best on a number of high quality forum posts. I bet there are hundreds of (semi)lurkers just DYING for dat quality content that once upon a time could only be found here

Grim: can't find any news on what that patch was for/
25 Jun 2024, 17:18 PM
Willy Pete: Lol there was a hotfix today. Relic hears you Rosbone :lol:
25 Jun 2024, 17:13 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield Shhhh. I am still working out the movie rights before we announce. :romeoHairDay:
25 Jun 2024, 16:17 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone wtf do you mean not studied enough, at this point I was sure you already wrote your thesis about "CoH3 and Relic against the humanity"
25 Jun 2024, 13:38 PM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete I have not studied the numbers enough. But I think there are more single player people now.
25 Jun 2024, 03:14 AM

25 Jun 2024, 00:14 AM
Willy Pete: The free weekend had a ton more ppl playing but the boost didn't last
24 Jun 2024, 23:44 PM
Willy Pete: The game is still the problem. Marketing and promos don't matter when the game can't get ppl to stick
24 Jun 2024, 23:43 PM
Rosbone: @OKSpitfire I just call 'em like I see 'em.
24 Jun 2024, 16:59 PM
Rosbone: I have talked to people who are thinking of buying the game but never knew about the sale/free weekend. But missed it by a couple days.
24 Jun 2024, 16:51 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield The last thing posted on Steam was June 10th. The free weekend was posted the day it started. Zero chance for anyone to see it and tell friends to plan on playing with them.
24 Jun 2024, 16:50 PM
OKSpitfire: The two of you just have one of those quite passionate, love-hate relationships Rosbone. :D
24 Jun 2024, 16:12 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone where did they go radio silent? Relic is posting updates on Discord all the time
24 Jun 2024, 14:42 PM
Rosbone: You guys all think I dont like Relic. Relic doesnt like Relic. I am just the one pointing at the girl with the razor blade lines on her arms. I didnt inflict them.
24 Jun 2024, 05:56 AM
Rosbone: MP numbers came up a little and I am pretty sure the SP crowd grew. Get people excited so they can tell their friends to play. Or go radio silent??? :facepalm:
24 Jun 2024, 05:55 AM
Rosbone: Think about it. Just built some momentum with the free weekend and sale. Then go radio silent for 6 weeks? Does that sound like a solid business plan to anyone? I am accepting all answers.
24 Jun 2024, 05:53 AM
Rosbone: Head in the sand playing pretend that they are famous game developers. Just some kids with no direction/leadership. Its sad. Someday they will grow up and realize they messed up.
24 Jun 2024, 04:28 AM
Rosbone: That is why Relic needs to do streams every week or two. To keep people interested. But they wont. And people will continue to leave the game. Because its... well... Relic. Completely useless.
24 Jun 2024, 04:27 AM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego Its the Coh3 patch. There is always a lull until it comes out. Coh3 is literally killed as we wait for the patch. No point playing or discussing what will not exist soon.
24 Jun 2024, 04:25 AM
donofsandiego: where is everybody :'(
24 Jun 2024, 03:26 AM
donofsandiego: :help::foreveralone:
24 Jun 2024, 03:25 AM
donofsandiego: Absolutely. I play countless games and my rank is way above average. Usually a couple thousand above average.
21 Jun 2024, 04:28 AM
Willy Pete: :rolleyes:
20 Jun 2024, 15:27 PM
Katitof: and there are countless players with 1000+ games who can barely break 1100-1200, lack of time is excuse for not playing much, you don't need to play a lot to remain above average
20 Jun 2024, 10:10 AM
Katitof: aerafield I'm that player, and I'm still better than majority - thing with coh is, it is a very simple and boomer friendly rts, you don't need to play every single day to remain good, you just won't be top 100, I'm floating at ~1400 elo just fine
20 Jun 2024, 10:09 AM
Willy Pete: So were they small bitches? Or fat fucks? This narrator sucks :help:
19 Jun 2024, 15:20 PM
aerafield: This was a rank 300 player btw
19 Jun 2024, 15:02 PM
aerafield: :snfPeter: My favorite is when they're not only the dead weight of the team, but then also moan in chat because the opponent played "too sweaty" , enjoy this absolute gem of a chat: 1) https://www.coh2.org/file/20981/boomer-vs-pathfinders.png
19 Jun 2024, 14:59 PM
OKSpitfire: If nothing else it must be a useful excuse. Why did you just lose our team game singehanded, boomer? Because I haven't slept in 3 days and I don't really care? hehe
19 Jun 2024, 14:40 PM
Willy Pete: like yeah, welcome to planet earth...
19 Jun 2024, 14:35 PM
Willy Pete: @aerafield doesnt sound toxic at all. its a way less cringey thing to say than the classic "i know you didnt ask but i have a job and kids btw"
19 Jun 2024, 14:34 PM
PatFenis: True, also who on earth outside of School/Uni wants to deal with randoms in online matchmaking these days.
19 Jun 2024, 13:47 PM
aerafield: Just stick to singleplayer or playing in an arranged team with friends for christ's sake :banana:
19 Jun 2024, 12:15 PM
aerafield: I know it sounds toxic, but imo these "Im too busy with work and the kids" players should stay far away from random automatch. If you know you're not good anymore, why do you insist on dragging down your random teammates with you?
19 Jun 2024, 12:14 PM
Katitof: I see why relic banned you everywhere they could, I support their decision
19 Jun 2024, 12:03 PM
Rosbone: @Katitof Congrats my friend!
19 Jun 2024, 11:31 AM
Rosbone: My fav time is when they fall asleep after feeding mid day and you creep around the house like there is a velociraptor in there with you. Dont make a sound... Then you hear that "ehhhn ehhhn ehhhn... wahhhhhhhh"
19 Jun 2024, 11:30 AM
Rosbone: @Katitof Exactly. When we first got preggo, my boos laugher in a crazy way then looked at me stone cold dead and whispered "you will never sleep again". That was 30 years ago and I never did.
19 Jun 2024, 11:28 AM
Katitof: babies also wake up screaming 8 times in the night, depraving you from sleep, you're facing constantly the choice to get extra rest or do something for yourself in the free time and the choice often goes for the rest
19 Jun 2024, 07:33 AM
Katitof: Rosbone I have a 2 year old, my gaming time was cut by 90%, especially on the weekends. Power to him if it'll be different there.
19 Jun 2024, 07:32 AM
Rosbone: AE's life is over. he had a good run. Let's have a round of applause for him and poor out a 40.
19 Jun 2024, 04:52 AM
Rosbone: @Katitof So true. We will never see AE again. People dont realize babies dont sleep. They eat, crap, and scream. Then they turn 7 and think your a retard because you couldnt possibly know what they learned in school. Then they are ansgty teens.
19 Jun 2024, 04:52 AM
Katitof: Wasn't he expecting a kid? That kind of impacts you a bit in the first couple of months, than you have like 6 more months of relative freedom, your last freedom, than baby becomes mobile and there goes your private life
18 Jun 2024, 21:18 PM
Hannibal: What happened to AE? He hasn't been uploading for months now on his Youtube channel, that's quite unusual
18 Jun 2024, 21:14 PM
PatFenis: Spoiler its just an empty announcement with most stuff already known.
18 Jun 2024, 16:54 PM
Rosbone: @DonnieChan I think Relic said mid July. So a month away yet.
16 Jun 2024, 03:31 AM
DonnieChan: is there a video which showcases the new sounds ? is that patch online already`?
15 Jun 2024, 20:08 PM
Lady Xenarra: I hereby dub thee, "Company of Dingos 2."
14 Jun 2024, 21:01 PM
donofsandiego: Sometimes Cobra is spitting facts and then sometimes bro traipses into lala land. Dude just says Emona Capital is being funded by blackrock and yet I can't find any mention of Blackrock and Emona Capital in the same article
14 Jun 2024, 11:31 AM
PatFenis: hit em*
14 Jun 2024, 08:16 AM
PatFenis: Cobra still on a mission to start a revolution against capitalism within the confines of a dead forum :foreveralone: Blackrock/Vanguard wont know what will hit ee, WE ARE DOZENS!! :foreveralone:
14 Jun 2024, 08:15 AM
Rosbone: Add Kill Counts and fix Skirmish menu and this is 100% should buy for skirmish players.
13 Jun 2024, 21:40 PM
Rosbone: That dude flying into the air is the stuff of Legend! That is what was missing from Coh2 that Coh1 had so much off. More of this please!!!
13 Jun 2024, 21:38 PM
Willy Pete: Can't wait to see what "complete scorched earth" involves. What the hell was the last year+?
11 Jun 2024, 21:09 PM
Rosbone: Yeah, I want Relic to succeed. But I feel like I need to be a parent and go there to slap the shit out of someone to get them to clean their room. This next patch looks good. I am hopeful. TTK and sound will be huge for some.
11 Jun 2024, 19:46 PM
donofsandiego: Ah. So it's not a true hate. More of a deep pity of them. I retract my statement in this case :D
11 Jun 2024, 18:09 PM
Rosbone: And this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Entity_(South_Park)
11 Jun 2024, 02:26 AM
Rosbone: This is your future you have built for yourselves: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HumancentiPad
11 Jun 2024, 02:23 AM
Rosbone: You poor bastards werent alove back when stuff had to work. Before you little tards ruined it all. Now nothing works. Everything sucks. Its all half finished trash. Like Coh3. Stupid forks lack the focus to complete a simple task. Its pathetic.
11 Jun 2024, 02:20 AM
Rosbone: But I have vowed that if I dont see Kill Counts and a fixed MENU for Skirmish next patch, I will go complete scorched Earth on Relic. :snfPeter:
11 Jun 2024, 02:19 AM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego I have never hated Relic. I am just tired of every single thing that comes out of the pacific northwest being complete dogshit made by retards. I swear their is a toxin in the air there from China or something.
11 Jun 2024, 02:17 AM
donofsandiego: Rosbone blackrom relationship with Relic at this point
11 Jun 2024, 00:08 AM
Rosbone: Random factions really could help this poor player base. Would help balance matches better. Yay, you helped .9% of your player base.
10 Jun 2024, 21:29 PM
Rosbone: Wasting time on stupid stuff like random factions is beyond retarded when your game is only 70% working. But we will see. Not like Relic ever lets us down.
10 Jun 2024, 21:28 PM
Rosbone: There is some promising things coming. But knowing 95% of your audience is stompers and having a trash skirmish menu is unforgivable negligence.
10 Jun 2024, 21:26 PM
Smartie: yeah, ttk adjustments in combination with improved sounds and random faction choice sounds promising. I'm quite pleased with Relic's performance in 2024
10 Jun 2024, 17:27 PM
aerafield: Long have we waited: Infantry Time-To-Kill adjustments to make early game combat more impactful

Katitof: and now L6 is a dead unit people select only to get to howitzer bit faster, at least Carro is still usable, but Stuart has better stats at lower cost so...
08 Jun 2024, 21:53 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete But Carro & L6/40 spam was a problem in the past?
07 Jun 2024, 19:12 PM
Willy Pete: @aerafield those are the only discussions he has lol
07 Jun 2024, 15:10 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra yes but pls dont turn this into another "Us vs them" discussion, Carro Armato blobs and L6/40 blobs were also a big issue. Relic overtuned many Light tanks in CoH3 and they scale like crazy into the late game
07 Jun 2024, 15:03 PM
OKSpitfire: It probably wasn't going great for Axis in order for that to happen, but my word that is some high level light vehicle play right there. :D
07 Jun 2024, 11:26 AM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Chaffee spam suddenly gets news now? Interesting
07 Jun 2024, 11:04 AM
OKSpitfire: Good Lord
07 Jun 2024, 09:12 AM
Willy Pete: Hey at least they didn't rush a medium tank like coh2. Isn't that so much worse? :nahnah:
07 Jun 2024, 00:04 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield That is called build diversity :hansSTUG:
06 Jun 2024, 21:30 PM
aerafield: Oh and ik it's been said multiple times, but fck the vehicle spam in CoH3. Say about CoH2's heavy tanks vs terminator TDs what you want, but wtf is this shit https://clips.twitch.tv/PowerfulTastyAirGuitarBlargNaut-srYDw6INsMsmr-V1
06 Jun 2024, 21:27 PM
aerafield: It's not necessarily the anti-blob tools. For some insane reason, Relic looked at the CoH2 OKW Opel ambulance (a very strong unit) and was like "Yeah, let's buff that thing to the next level and give it to all factions, what could go wrong?" :banana:
06 Jun 2024, 21:24 PM
Willy Pete: *still can happen in coh3 it's just offmaps getting spammed instead of on-map
05 Jun 2024, 13:48 PM
Willy Pete: You can punish blobs better in coh2... Arty fest
05 Jun 2024, 13:47 PM
Katitof: I like coh3 team games much more, blobbing can be punished and late game is not just arty fest or med tank race
05 Jun 2024, 12:29 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Ive been hearing next patch bro since launch. Just watch any COH2 team game on twitch. Its 1000% better. For so many reasons. So many reasons, that the next patch will not fix lol.
04 Jun 2024, 22:07 PM
aerafield: In my opinion CoH2's teamgames are still more fun than CoH3's, but a few more good patches would change that probably
04 Jun 2024, 21:21 PM
aerafield: I would say Relic is very much in the process of doing that already, the patches since December were very good, but obviously CoH3 will never turn into a CoH2 clone, so the diehard CoH2 fans are gonna stay, was the same with CoH1
04 Jun 2024, 21:19 PM
Rosbone: Right now many Coh3 reviews say to play Coh2 instead. And I am seeing new people in chat asking questions. Relic needs to get these Coh2 guys switched over ASAP. To stop the schism.
04 Jun 2024, 18:51 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield You know I think you should be on that list. has Relic talked to anyone since Coh3s release. Seems like a fresh chat is needed pretty soon. The sooner they get the top Coh2 people converted the sooner it will be successful.
04 Jun 2024, 18:47 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone "anyone but Aerafield" wtf bro D: The funny thing is that Relic actually did talk to those people, but in hindsight it seems like they only listened to people who don't play large teamgames
04 Jun 2024, 13:37 PM
Rosbone: The part of Rosbone will be played by @donofsandiego today. We now return you to "As the World Turns".
04 Jun 2024, 06:38 AM
donofsandiego: I want assault snipers... two man sniper squad with SVTs and shock troop armor... demo charges...... ok im gonna sleep now
04 Jun 2024, 05:23 AM
donofsandiego: guys hear me out on this one.... what if we brought back the tank handling from coh 2's release. I actually stand by that legitimately. It looked good. Probably didn't feel as good to tourney players though
04 Jun 2024, 05:20 AM
donofsandiego: lets bring back the kangaroo carrier actually but only snipers can garrison it
04 Jun 2024, 05:17 AM
donofsandiego: give back the free HQ vehicles to OKW but make it so that one squad can ride around insise that would be very cool I think
04 Jun 2024, 05:17 AM
donofsandiego: maybe I should go to sleep...
04 Jun 2024, 05:13 AM
donofsandiego: holy shit just had a jimmy neutron brain blast here: let's make the MG34 and Kubel switch roles. Make the kubel a bit slower and give it a setup/teardown time, and then make it so the MG34 team packs up and tears down really fast but has no suppression
04 Jun 2024, 05:12 AM
donofsandiego: Brother are you trying to advocate for making a Kübel cost MORE than OKW's mainline infantry? Why don't we just increase it to 320 and give it back suppression and make it a cool unit again.
04 Jun 2024, 05:08 AM
SteamNOC: In 4v4, when all your German teammates are Oberkommando West, the Allies are at a huge disadvantage. If the German user mobilizes 2 or 3 Kübelwagens, the Allies will be at a one-sided disadvantage. Therefore, the Kübelwagen manpower must be adjusted to 280
04 Jun 2024, 03:15 AM
donofsandiego: and thank you for the compliment ^_^
03 Jun 2024, 18:44 PM
donofsandiego: True, true. Just makes me sad to see my childhood favorite in such a state. I'm sure there are those who feel the same about CoH
03 Jun 2024, 18:42 PM
Rosbone: And sadly the large portion of those actual players you refer to are glue eating donkeys. Relic needs to talk to top streamers and people with 10k hours in the game like Sturmpanther, Duffman, Dirty_Finisher, etc etc etc Anyone but Aerafield .... j/k <444>3
03 Jun 2024, 17:29 PM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego Points for the delightful prose. I will be a fan of Coh3 when it has kill counts and working skirmish menu. Sadly most people are spouting off about new icons and garbage. Complete morons. As I sadi Coh3 will never succeed catering to tards.
03 Jun 2024, 17:26 PM
donofsandiego: like TF2!
03 Jun 2024, 16:57 PM
donofsandiego: instead of being a rotting corpse held aloft by thousands of bot minions created for the express purpose of feeding on whatever scraps still hang off the fetid bones
03 Jun 2024, 16:57 PM
donofsandiego: For all the shit we talk about coh, how about we take a moment to appreciate that the playercount is real, and the game is merely sickly
03 Jun 2024, 16:55 PM
Lady Xenarra: Of course ppl will complain about the Obice, but you basically ask for it with a rush for heavy guns meta I'm seeing
31 May 2024, 21:42 PM
Lady Xenarra: I have -no- issue reverting to COH2 siege warfare vs Adv inf, but something's busted when their guns can shell you once every 8-9s on average
31 May 2024, 21:41 PM
Lady Xenarra: Ah yes, feels great when my bunker gets taken out frontally by an Infantry Assault despite hosing them down in a big blob.

30 May 2024, 01:27 AM
Willy Pete: We finally know why they banned rosbone. He was onto their secret
30 May 2024, 00:01 AM
Willy Pete: "Ask yourself. Do you have turds tucked away in your closet. Be honest. You do dont you." :rofl:
30 May 2024, 00:00 AM
Rosbone: Little jonny douchenuts is not going to miss out on the new game because it mines his data strips his rights away. He HAS to have the new GAME! And 4 hours later hes on to the next new game.
29 May 2024, 04:23 AM
Rosbone: The problem is the world is now run by 12 year olds. Spoiled little brat douchebags playing with their phones instead of learning. They cant resist the shiny lights.
29 May 2024, 04:19 AM
donofsandiego: that's exactly the kind of thing AccursedFarms is trying to battle against legally. Online service rugpulls like the Division where support gets cut and players can't even play the game any more . Not an exact match to the situation but still..
29 May 2024, 04:19 AM
Rosbone: I am fine with Relic banning people. I am fine with my Ban. I am NOT fine with just "it wont work anymore". I paid $60 and you cant even tell me why you pulled the plug???? WTF??? ClownShow
29 May 2024, 04:18 AM
donofsandiego: we get it, you're disagreeing on principle. I still suggest giving that channel a look.
29 May 2024, 04:17 AM
Rosbone: Now we are talking. I have been on about this crap since Half Life 2 came out and required Steam. That is when our rights disappeared.
29 May 2024, 04:17 AM
donofsandiego: if you're looking do some fighting against publishers on whether or not they can just cut services to someone who paid for their game, that's a good place to start.
29 May 2024, 04:16 AM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego I am showing that I dont care about my ban. I am showing that I have been vocal about Relics ban process since day 1 of playing the game. Usually I say it in the shout box but I happened across this old post last night.
29 May 2024, 04:15 AM
donofsandiego: @Rosbone go look up AccursedFarms on youtube
29 May 2024, 04:14 AM
Rosbone: What you did to make the car break is irrelevant. its the car manufacturers responsibility to let you know why the car doesnt work anymore. You paid them cash money for this thing.
29 May 2024, 04:13 AM
donofsandiego: otherwise, I really think you should stop wasting your breath on CoH 3. They've seen fit to exclude one of their best map-makers, and you don't even like the game to start with.
29 May 2024, 04:13 AM
Rosbone: Or do you call the manufacturer and have certain expectations of service/assistance.
29 May 2024, 04:12 AM
Rosbone: If your car just stops working, do you go to the web and ask some rando wensite why its not working anymore?
29 May 2024, 04:11 AM
Rosbone: You guys are completely missing the point. We dont know what Guy #1 did. But he had to come here (.Org) to find out the game he paid for was not working for some reason.
29 May 2024, 04:11 AM
donofsandiego: as far as online bans go, we don't have the legal basis for forcing companies to prpvode online services once they decide they don't want to provide them any more. If you want to support someone fighting against that, look up AccursedFarms on youtube
29 May 2024, 04:11 AM
donofsandiego: The point was that thread was a bad example because those dudes fucked up and broke the rules by their own admission even.
29 May 2024, 04:08 AM
donofsandiego: I was under the impression that baby hitler came in to ask about OP, because the OP admitted they had offensive pfp/name and baby hitler guy said their friend had done the same. Maybe they are 3 different people idk
29 May 2024, 04:06 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: They're both reprehensible. Nobody's going to go on a forum asking for clemency and say exactly what they did. How naive can you be about this?
29 May 2024, 02:59 AM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego "Hi. Just wanted to know how we can know about our ban when we are banned ? Its permaban or time ban ? If it's time ban how to know about length of it?" Why is everyone focusing on the other guy?
29 May 2024, 01:59 AM
donofsandiego: You should have found a better example than an obviously contemptible person obviously breaking the rules, therefore obviously getting what was coming to them.
29 May 2024, 01:54 AM
donofsandiego: I really am not walking down the "first they came for the people saying n*gger" path with you. It's obviously against the code of conduct and the dude can go get bent over backwards. That's really all there is to it.
29 May 2024, 01:52 AM
donofsandiego: Going to be honest with you Rosbone, I am really struggling to scrape together a single f*ck to give about "jew hunter"s friend getting banned for calling people "low IQ n*gger" and "f*ggot" especially when it's one of the first few things in the CoC
29 May 2024, 01:46 AM
OKSpitfire: UK TV show reference...
28 May 2024, 22:14 PM
OKSpitfire: Incredible that that sort of ideology still has an influence on people. It just makes you think of the dumbest people, like Marc's work friend in Peep Show.
28 May 2024, 22:14 PM
aerafield: @OKSpitfire Company of Heroes -just like every other WW2 game where axis are playable- attracts a lot of neo-nazis sadly.
28 May 2024, 21:29 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I'm entirely serious about that, yes.
28 May 2024, 19:56 PM
Lady Xenarra: WTB Hellcat for Axis and find that it suddenly becomes oppressive in the eyes of USF mains
28 May 2024, 19:30 PM
OKSpitfire: Are you serious?
28 May 2024, 19:21 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: @aerafield There's no meaningful difference between the former or the latter, save for maybe ignorance. The Company of Heroes community is one of several small yet unfortunately impactful places where long-debunked historical untruths are still spread.
28 May 2024, 19:04 PM
Rosbone: I love how you guys latch on to wrong thing and cling to it so you can avoid the uncomfortable conversation of YOU actually having to do something. Gamers are the laziest people ever. :snfPeter:
28 May 2024, 17:59 PM
aerafield: Nah there's still a difference. There is the "soft" wehraboos who simply have a fetish for the military of the Third Reich, and then there's the nazi roleplayers who claim that the Wehrmacht did nothing wrong and was not involved in the genocide policy
28 May 2024, 17:43 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: And "wehraboos" are Nazi roleplayers, they just haven't figured it out yet.
28 May 2024, 16:38 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: The "dumb kids trolling" are usually the same ones that attended the Unite the Right rally "as a joke" and end up posting manifestos right before shooting up synagogues.
28 May 2024, 16:37 PM
Katitof: if you got banned in game, that means you REALLY TRIED to get a ban, if you got banned on forums, yeah, the mods there are..... spiteful and unhinged would be words I'd use, truly white knight and I'm almost 100% they have rainbow hair too
28 May 2024, 12:03 PM
Rosbone: 50% of the fun for Coh players is trolling. I dont agree with it. But you ban them for trolling, tell them you banned them for trolling so they get the hint.
28 May 2024, 11:00 AM
Rosbone: My point still stands that Relic shouldnt be allowed to just ban people witout a reason. These could just be dumb kidx trolling. And it shows theat Sturm is the person stuck trying to help. Not Relic.
28 May 2024, 10:58 AM
aerafield: Being a hardcore axis main or wehraboo is one thing, but these literal nazi roleplayers that get magically attracted to CoH are just next level bottom of the barrel degenerate ape troglodytes
28 May 2024, 10:51 AM
aerafield: @Rosbone linking to a thread where you help someone called "jew hunter" and a pfp of baby hitler is not as noble & samaritan as you might think it is :foreveralone:
28 May 2024, 10:48 AM
donofsandiego: I wonder why the other dude was banned :rofl:
28 May 2024, 04:35 AM
donofsandiego: the dude who says that OP was his friend has a name that translates to "jew hunter" and is asking if his friend was banned "Unless he was banned for his profile picture/profile name."
28 May 2024, 04:34 AM
Rosbone: And keep blindly giving your money to your oppressors. :romeoMug:
28 May 2024, 04:05 AM
Rosbone: Because you cows dont care to help the cow next to you when it gets taken by a croc. Chew your cud and walk away. Moooooo.

Rosbone: Back when I got banned I was trying to help people like this guy: https://www.coh2.org/topic/103078/ban-s-details Yep. 2019 and its still a mystery when people get banned.
28 May 2024, 04:02 AM
Rosbone: Seeing posts about Coh3 MP alpha in Dec 2021. Then realizing the skirmish menu is still not done. No kill counts. No observer mode. etc etc etc. Wonder why Sega dropped them. Hmmm. Call me Relic I will fix your shit up. I am not kidding.
28 May 2024, 03:51 AM
KoRneY: @OKSpitfire Best to disengage, that dude's a fuckin' whackjob
27 May 2024, 13:27 PM
Katitof: not a german btw, just living here
26 May 2024, 19:23 PM
aerafield: vast majority of subreddits are not even about gaming. @Katitof since I know you're german too, I can highly recommend https://www.reddit.com/r/aberBitteLaminiert/ or https://www.reddit.com/r/ichbin40undSchwurbler/
26 May 2024, 19:10 PM
Willy Pete: Ha
26 May 2024, 17:23 PM
Katitof: reddit for gaming forums is like mid afrika for human civilization
26 May 2024, 16:53 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield A cesspit is still a cesspit. Oh sure there’s some diamonds in the shit, but expecting good stuff from Reddit is laughable.
26 May 2024, 15:21 PM
aerafield: Glad to hear you've visited most of the 100,000+ subreddits already to make that claim :snfPeter:
26 May 2024, 15:15 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Rosbone Well you’re not wrong, but it is the Reddit. Most subreddits in general are rubbish anyway.
26 May 2024, 12:48 PM
Rosbone: These are the elite creme of the Coh crop. Our contemporaries and comrades. Ask yourself. Do you have turds tucked away in your closet. Be honest. You do dont you.
26 May 2024, 11:47 AM
Rosbone: Any person who spouts the dumbest thing ever gets upvoted. Anything intelligent is down voted. This is our player base. Booger eaters and people who crap in shoe boxes and hide it in their closet. These are your people.
26 May 2024, 11:44 AM
Rosbone: Imagine being a Relican and reading Reddit and then trying to put in 100% effort to make the best game. I would give like 7% tops for those morons. I am Relics side. Coh3 is as good as it needs to be for these droolers. Dumbest people on Earth.
26 May 2024, 11:43 AM
Rosbone: People always talk about me being toxic and it makes them not want to play. Have you ever been to Reddit?
26 May 2024, 11:41 AM
Rosbone: Can someone please change my name to RaftGoat. :hansGASM:
25 May 2024, 13:01 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: As for your part, maybe turn off the computer/device and read something if you think someone using a high-school-level word a few times makes it their "favourite".
24 May 2024, 20:11 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: @OKSpitfire If you mean that I no longer find morons spending their last neurons hoping this game will fill that void in their life amusing, this conversation is testament to that not being the case.
24 May 2024, 20:09 PM
Willy Pete: "I barely post here" Bro everyone barely posts here. Any activity at all is a lot lol
24 May 2024, 16:16 PM
OKSpitfire: But you've made great strides in your mental health and you talk about it a lot less now. Great news for everyone.
24 May 2024, 16:09 PM
OKSpitfire: You really obviously were though! I remember you addressing it and blaming it on 'schedenfreude' (your favourite word at the time).
24 May 2024, 16:06 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I, however, apparently live rent-free in a few heads
24 May 2024, 15:35 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: You're calling me obsessed yet you're the one trying to assign reasons why or why not to my actions. If I ever don't post here, it's probably because I ultimately neither care about nor think about this place beyond coming here for a laugh once in a while.
24 May 2024, 15:34 PM
OKSpitfire: That's the only reason you are being ever-so-mildly teased about all the doom and gloom.
24 May 2024, 15:24 PM
OKSpitfire: Come on man, you only stopped banging on about it after multiple people on here pointed out to you that you were acting more than a little obsessed. Hating on something you didn't pay for, that you don't like and that you don't even play.
24 May 2024, 15:22 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Maybe don't tie your sense of self-worth to a video game/company and you won't find it so obnoxious.
24 May 2024, 14:45 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I barely post here at all so that says more about you than I.
24 May 2024, 14:44 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah, you've spent an inordinate amount of time being pretty obnoxious and telling anyone who will listen exactly that.
24 May 2024, 11:40 AM
aerafield: Yeah but you basically promised us that the studio would be long gone by now. Several times
24 May 2024, 11:23 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: @NorthWeapon I'm more than willing to call any company out on shitty business practices. Dawn of War III was unforgivable as far as I'm concerned.
24 May 2024, 05:36 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: @aerafield It's not exactly groundbreaking stuff they're announcing, fixing some of the leftover shit from launch, fixing the dumpster fire campaign map and two unit ability fixes per faction. This is literally the studio's last leg.
24 May 2024, 05:35 AM
Katitof: well, mow2 kicks you for afk if you pause single player and go do something else for a bit for one, always online for SP, changing tank mechanics and giving them health bars, in general mechanical changes compared to all previous games, identity crisis
23 May 2024, 20:43 PM
NorthWeapon: 1 more thing, I don't think anyone should take steam reviews seriously. MoW 2 looks fun from Elpern stream, very nice. 61% mixed reviews? What are these idiots complaining about? What other game you got? Call of Wars 7: Battle Royale? 61% for mow2 right...
23 May 2024, 20:04 PM
NorthWeapon: Playstation rightfully took over the market, they deserved it. If Vermillion_Hawk was flaming about MS going down, I wouldn't blame him but he taking it out on some random RTS company most of the world does not know about
23 May 2024, 20:00 PM
NorthWeapon: I am still salty about the xbox thing. Alright if Nvidia selled bricked GPUs, aight you're selling it to people who are PC people who built their things. Not a big deal. your CONSOLES bricked, people who have no idea what a GPU or CPU is or heat sink
23 May 2024, 19:58 PM
NorthWeapon: ODST spam was broken, unless they rush you with scorpions/grizzlies. There were some MLG tournaments, that was nice
23 May 2024, 19:56 PM
NorthWeapon: The fact that they released consoles that would get hardware fail. Console gamers are not tech savvy, lot of them are kids. What a mess. Anyways, I got CoH 1 because my xbox 360 fried lol
23 May 2024, 19:55 PM
NorthWeapon: Right before Halo 3: ODST came out too. I was a kid, had no idea you could return your xbox and get it for literally free. Lol people on YouTube doing all kinds of ridiculous tricks to get the xbox working. I even attempted to get a kit to tear it open/fix
23 May 2024, 19:52 PM
NorthWeapon: I was rekting n00bs in Halo Wars. What a fantastic game. I was a huge Halo fan and the excitement of seeing it come to RTS was crazy. Then I got a E74 "red ring of death" error for the Xbox 360. Looking back, Microsoft are a bunch of idiots
23 May 2024, 19:51 PM
aerafield: I know, I played Halo Wars a ton on console back then. I also played Halo Wars 2 on PC and it was fine tbh
23 May 2024, 19:11 PM
Katitof: halo wars was made for consoles, have you played it in pc? It feels horrible even compared to games like red alert 1 and 2
23 May 2024, 19:08 PM
aerafield: @Katitof to be fair Halo Wars was a very big thing back in the late 2000s/early 2010s
23 May 2024, 19:05 PM
Katitof: I wonder whose idea was to take coh to consoles anyway, they are fortnite players, not rts masterminds
23 May 2024, 19:00 PM
OKSpitfire: From what I hear its not the best gameplay-wise either but no-wonder the campaign sucked.
23 May 2024, 18:58 PM
OKSpitfire: Interesting rumour about Homeworld.. apparently the publisher forced them to hire a pretty questionable new head writer who basically re-wrote the whole tone of story mid way through.
23 May 2024, 18:57 PM
aerafield: 1.7.0 in late June 1.8.0 targeting the Fall 1.9.0 targeting early Winter @Vermillion_Hawk WHEN IS THE RELIC SHUTDOWN COMING AND IS IT IN THE ROOM WITH US?!
23 May 2024, 18:23 PM
aerafield: the 5 remaining console players are in shambles
23 May 2024, 18:20 PM
Willy Pete: I doubt theres many ppl saying USF is difficult since adv inf... Go back and play them on 1.3, thats when it was challenging
23 May 2024, 13:53 PM
Lady Xenarra: I've yet to see how Hellcats apparently can't handle the dreaded Tiger
23 May 2024, 13:49 PM
Lady Xenarra: Adv Inf being busted isn't news though. 80%+ of my games were other BGs
23 May 2024, 13:48 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete Yeah it's fouled 2/3 of my data set unfortunately. But I didn't choose the timing...
23 May 2024, 13:46 PM
Willy Pete: I mean they literally just buffed free fire drills a month ago...
23 May 2024, 13:15 PM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra nice of you to wait til after multiple patches that were in favor of allies lol
23 May 2024, 13:14 PM
Benjamin: hello, everyone
23 May 2024, 12:14 PM
Lady Xenarra: I -wish- my mainline was as good as BAR rifles as they are today
23 May 2024, 09:47 AM
Lady Xenarra: 105mm howie is completely busted with autofire and I think I got worse with arty skills as a result
23 May 2024, 09:46 AM
Lady Xenarra: Alright, one month of USF is done. I want what USF mains are smoking about the difficulty.
23 May 2024, 09:41 AM
OKSpitfire: Fair enough, Rosbone. Respect the consistency.
23 May 2024, 07:45 AM
donofsandiego: If nothing else, I respect your tenacity, @Rosbone
22 May 2024, 21:07 PM
Rosbone: Coh3 failing is the kid/dog in this analogy. I cant sit by and watch someone set themselves on fire. Especially when it affects my friends.
22 May 2024, 19:17 PM
Rosbone: I try to stop the kid/dog from having the opportunity to get killed.
22 May 2024, 19:15 PM
Rosbone: @Nickbn I am built different. Some people let their kids and dogs play in the front yard. These people dont flinch when the kid/dog run into the street. Then they cry when they get killed.
22 May 2024, 19:14 PM
Nickbn: lol @Rosbone why do you still care? Serious question
22 May 2024, 19:04 PM
Rosbone: So I would lose 100's of hours of my life to help out. And Relic cant even put out a road map or statement as to who owns the ^%$^%$% game. Why does anyone support these stupid F%#$s? Serious question.
22 May 2024, 18:40 PM
Rosbone: @OKSpitfire The only reason I played Coh2 for a while before being banned, was to help players get matches. I could careless if I ever play Coh again. Even now I would play Coh3 to help the community if I could. I would hate it, but I would do it.
22 May 2024, 18:39 PM
Rosbone: But it is not fair to you guys, because you too are trying to swallow the Kool-Aid and I come here and slap it out of your hand. And you lose all the progress you made :snfPeter:
22 May 2024, 18:35 PM
Rosbone: I come here knowing that the people here can string a coherent thought together.
22 May 2024, 18:33 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield The people here are the only ones who matter. Discord and Reddit are drooling fools. They are drowning in the Kool-Aid and cant be saved. They would push the lifesaver away and go under. They are Relics people.
22 May 2024, 18:32 PM
Rosbone: @PatFenis Touching grass is the problem. I forget how trash relic is. So when it hits me in the face, I am not ready. You cant just do anal. You have to bring it up at dinner first, you know.
22 May 2024, 18:31 PM
aerafield: Yes you're literally shouting into a room with 5 people, and none of them are working for Relic
22 May 2024, 17:48 PM
PatFenis: Also this is the equivalent of shouting into a tin can, all the cool catz and kittens are on discord these days. Cant have anything structured these days.
22 May 2024, 16:38 PM
PatFenis: Ros you should touch some grass or do something to take off the edge. Obsessing about relics workings is not healthy.
22 May 2024, 16:37 PM
Rosbone: Call me Relic. You clowns have no idea what you are doing. Seriously I will get on Zoom and fix your shit up for free.
22 May 2024, 16:05 PM
Rosbone: I have never seen a company so self destructive before. Wonder why you laid everyone off and sales are shit? Maybe look at the trash game you put out and continue to screw up.
22 May 2024, 16:04 PM
Rosbone: @OKSpitfire Dane says 10x worse stuff everyday on stream and he is beloved by Relic. F%$^%#g clowns. They are so trash.
22 May 2024, 16:00 PM
Rosbone: So have fun do something cool and get all giddy then look under the bed and see Coh3 pulsating and wheezing like the alien from The Thing.
22 May 2024, 15:58 PM
Rosbone: You hear good players saying "all it needs is..." and you start to get hopeful. Then you look and relic is pandering to dumbest morons on Reddit that they can find. They are searching for the WORST possible suggestions and thats what they are working on.
22 May 2024, 15:56 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield Yeah. I had long given up hope it would ever be good. But I keep getting suprised by how much it really sucks. I have all but stopped watching Coh3 on Twitch. Dirtys stream is all I can take because he at least highlights what the game needs.
22 May 2024, 15:55 PM
OKSpitfire: Any hope of them giving you a second chance, Rosbone? Not that you'd want one, I suppose, given the game's very well documented failings.
22 May 2024, 13:42 PM
OKSpitfire: :lolol:
22 May 2024, 12:34 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone you seem to be having a very healthy relationship with Relic & CoH man, I think reading through more CoH3 steam reviews and setting up an alert bot whenever someone posts a new CoH3 review might help :snfPeter:
22 May 2024, 11:36 AM
Rosbone: I apologize. Good bye.
22 May 2024, 10:21 AM
Rosbone: But it is my fault for just being bored and looking for some fun Coh3 bugs to laugh at like the calliope that fires directly into the dirt. I should know better. This is on me.
22 May 2024, 10:19 AM
Rosbone: Coh3 FRBR. For retards by retards. I deleted all Coh links from my PC. Once again I was just completely surprised by the level of dumb. Relic sucks. They completely suck.
22 May 2024, 10:19 AM
Rosbone: Coh3 sucks. It is unfinished trash. And these retards will never fix it because the even more retarded simps that wash their balls when they do the most minimal shit.
22 May 2024, 10:17 AM
Rosbone: Sorry guys. I was watching The Tom Brady roast and was all happy then I saw the latest Relic post and I lost it. I was happy. And I looked at Relic for 5 seconds and was clinically depressed.
22 May 2024, 10:16 AM
DonnieChan: mirror matches are the reason i stopped playing dawn of war
22 May 2024, 09:53 AM
NaOCl: Cope and Seethe @Rosbone CoH3 is so good now. Better than Coh2. And MoW is a tragic LARP, always has been. Impossible for it to be remotely competitive. I think its aimed at old people too slow for RTS
22 May 2024, 07:56 AM
Rosbone: Relic, beloved community members went to your company to make it great. And you are making them look like morons. Have some damn respect for employees.
22 May 2024, 05:41 AM
Rosbone: Every month or two I get excited to see some hot Coh3 graphics and cool new maps and 5 seconds in I see 3 things that are complete shit that would take 11 minutes to fix. 14 months dude! 14 months!!!! WTAF!
22 May 2024, 05:37 AM
Rosbone: I guess I need to pay Taylor Lautner to go to Relic and say "I guess no one can fix this game cause they are all too busy sucking!". Please Relic. Please. Finish the M****F***** game. Stop dickin around.
22 May 2024, 05:34 AM
Rosbone: I have yet been able to watch a Coh3 game or read about Coh3 and not puke in my mouth at how trash it is. Why is anyone playing that "game"?
22 May 2024, 05:31 AM
Rosbone: You know what is worse than MoW2? Relic. Relic is worse. Much much worse. Unfathomably worse.
22 May 2024, 05:30 AM
NaOCl: Mow sucks
22 May 2024, 00:08 AM
Katitof: does not help the game is a terrible thing to watch, better impressions from playing, but it is not spectacle
21 May 2024, 16:47 PM
aerafield: I must say the constant mirror matches are pretty immersion breaking when watching MoW2
21 May 2024, 15:42 PM
Willy Pete: He wasnt talking about you. General V posted a spicy link that got invised :banana:
21 May 2024, 06:18 AM
donofsandiego: I'll just go back to Men of War 2. I'm easily entertained apparently.
21 May 2024, 01:32 AM
donofsandiego: It's already been made clear talking about politics on here is not worth it.
21 May 2024, 01:31 AM
Katitof: yeah, I can tell by number of exceptional bads today, I don't think I ever had this long lose streak to just stop playing, MAN today was horrible
20 May 2024, 21:07 PM
Hannibal: The free weekend really seemed to help CoH3. Almost closed in on CoH2 player numbers and the players actually seem to stick with the game
20 May 2024, 17:21 PM
Katitof: also, it seems like someone have mistaken this computer game site for his political blog again
20 May 2024, 16:55 PM
Katitof: @aerafield yes, the same dak with lowest win rates since the patch, can't hard carry with the tiger when allies roll over you long before that :snfPeter:
20 May 2024, 16:54 PM
Willy Pete: You could also just play 1v1... Or don't play with randoms....
20 May 2024, 14:36 PM
aerafield: You're playing as DAK though, just carry and win :romeoPls:
20 May 2024, 13:44 PM
Katitof: -5 loss streak, because there is always a 1000 elo cache spammer in team, it was not like this before free weekend, I appreciate new players, but why MM throws them with 1300-1600 ffs
20 May 2024, 11:22 AM
Pumphousepartyhire: Lighting
20 May 2024, 10:46 AM
donofsandiego: I still like the game. Just can't recommend it.
18 May 2024, 23:56 PM
Katitof: you're not losing much if you value balance, graphics and infantry animations that look good :snfPeter:
17 May 2024, 20:38 PM
Rosbone: I wont play MoW2.... because of Katitof. Always Katitof :snfPeter:
17 May 2024, 18:33 PM
donofsandiego: @Katitof I bet
17 May 2024, 16:29 PM
Katitof: They're just as bad in german and russian, you just can't tell.
17 May 2024, 08:19 AM
donofsandiego: At least the russian and german troops speak their native languages. I just can't even play US, the voice lines are so bad.
16 May 2024, 23:41 PM
donofsandiego: also, you know how troops call you "commander" in company of heroes? Well, in Men of War 2, the troops call *you*, the player, "uncle sam". Literally ordering around a bunch of veteran riflemen and they're saying shit like, "orders recieved, uncle sam"
16 May 2024, 23:36 PM
donofsandiego: "beans and bullets ready, just point us at the enemy"; "chew ground boys, we're moving on up"; and you can't forget "my butt is covered in grass from all this sitting around doing nothing"
16 May 2024, 23:34 PM
donofsandiego: CoH3 has lackluster voicelines, but nothing as shit as the new voicelines for Men of War 2... some gems I was forced to listen to 10 times a match:
16 May 2024, 23:33 PM
Willy Pete: "these fucking construction workers are no match for guards"
16 May 2024, 22:34 PM
Willy Pete: if you played coh2 its near impossible to appreciate 3s voice lines lol. the soviets and wher had so many great ones
16 May 2024, 22:33 PM
donofsandiego: one advantage to playing Men of War 2: increased appreciation for CoH 3 voice lines
16 May 2024, 19:31 PM
donofsandiego: he's a man of war, not a man of honor
16 May 2024, 19:19 PM
aerafield: :snfPeter:
16 May 2024, 19:09 PM
Rosbone: I assumed you were a man of honor and would check it out yourself. I never expected you might just peruse Reddit like some pleb :snfPeter:
16 May 2024, 19:04 PM
aerafield: Am I though? :snfPeter:
16 May 2024, 18:50 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield Why are you reading MoW2 reviews :snfPeter:
16 May 2024, 17:59 PM
aerafield: 50% positive reviews for MoW2 :snfPeter:
16 May 2024, 17:38 PM
donofsandiego: but yeah, game didn't improve much from the playtest. Don't recommend
16 May 2024, 15:46 PM
donofsandiego: You're either talking about the publisher, or the Gem engine in general. It's not that hard to use Wikipedia.
16 May 2024, 15:28 PM
donofsandiego: Katitof, there's a very applicable saying in English that starts with "better to remain silent and be thought a fool". The last game that developer Best Way released was Men of War 2: Arena, and before that, the original Men of War in 2008.
16 May 2024, 15:27 PM
Katitof: what's there to explain? 20 year old gameplay with a slight graphical lifting. Another asset swap re-re-re-release from that dev, it'll find its fetishists, but it does not even register as competition for coh
15 May 2024, 22:16 PM
donofsandiego: although I can't really talk much about MoW 2 because I've been on a Fallout: New Vegas kick recently
15 May 2024, 22:03 PM
donofsandiego: also, again, I'm the only one posting positively about MoW2 on this website, so why don't you address me directly instead of vagueposting.
15 May 2024, 22:02 PM
donofsandiego: Please explain this brick of reality to the class, Katitof?
15 May 2024, 22:00 PM
Katitof: people who compained about sound in coh3 must be crying in despair in mow3
15 May 2024, 21:34 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Watching people click through the exact same menus looking at the exact same things for minutes on end
15 May 2024, 20:02 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I don't watch people streaming games often but Good Lord is it ever brain-melting garbage
15 May 2024, 20:01 PM
Katitof: About one hour left until MoW2 fans who played coh3 will be hit with the brick of reality
15 May 2024, 16:13 PM
OKSpitfire: Fully agree, the sound has always been my biggest problem. Doubt it's a priority for them at this point though, we're probably stuck with it.
15 May 2024, 12:19 PM
aerafield: You hear a tank maingun firing in the distance and you have 0 clue whether it was a P4, a Sherman, a Chaffee or something else
15 May 2024, 12:05 PM
aerafield: Poor sound quality and low palette of truly distinguishable sounds is by far the biggest remaining issue with coh3 I think
15 May 2024, 11:57 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: It's like trying to sift through a mound of shit, looking for diamonds. I'd just rather not.
14 May 2024, 22:01 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: It's also a bad thing in terms of gameplay as I didn't even realize my men were under mortar barrage at one point because the sound and visual effects were so terrible.
14 May 2024, 22:00 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I will say that the general fidelity of the sound and explosions is immediately and egregiously mediocre. I built the 25 Pounder gun and it firing has absolutely no weight or power behind it.
14 May 2024, 21:59 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: @OKSpitfire After playing it there's not much to say that hasn't already been said
14 May 2024, 21:58 PM
DonnieChan: I Don't think you are completely right ORsbone. The models especially looked cleaner and sharper: https://www.moddb.com/mods/battle-of-crete/images/fallschirmjger-ammunition-bandolier-2 https://olandewgamers.wordpress.com/2016/03/19/company-of-heroes-scre
14 May 2024, 19:39 PM
Rosbone: Most hardcore players usually have textures on low to get max FPS. They probably dont even notice the changes so they are OK playing Coh3. So 1v1 is fine to most.
14 May 2024, 17:10 PM
Rosbone: So many things are improved, but our brains want the old way. It feels more real. That is why early on I said is it bad or are we just not used to it yet.
14 May 2024, 17:09 PM
Rosbone: So your brain goes "This is fake". Even though it looks way better. Better than the blurry correctly scaled Coh2 textures. Or too low res Coh1 textures.
14 May 2024, 17:06 PM
Rosbone: Coh3 gfx are higher resolution with more blending options. So they look sharper. COmbine this with exaggerated scaling and you can see a ton of detail. But it looks off to your brain because it looks like you are 1m off the ground not 15m.
14 May 2024, 17:05 PM
Rosbone: Coh3 explosions are trying to look more real. The sound is trying to be more real. Both feel less real.
14 May 2024, 17:02 PM
OKSpitfire: Really? I've yet to hear you go into anything specific when it comes to Company of Heroes 3. The one time you really tried it seemed like you had next to no idea.
14 May 2024, 16:14 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I got a good few hours in for both Homeworld 3 and Company of Heroes 3, I can speak pretty confidently about both.
14 May 2024, 14:40 PM
DonnieChan: actually coh3 plays quite well, but visuals and fx are downgrade (WHICH I DONT UNDERSTAND AS COH1 LOOKED BETTER 20 YEARSAGO)
14 May 2024, 14:38 PM
OKSpitfire: Whoops, I haven't even played HW3, I should probably shut up. :D
14 May 2024, 13:59 PM
OKSpitfire: Nah, no it doesn't.
14 May 2024, 13:58 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: It's just straight up not remotely exciting, I get no sense of wonder from it at all
14 May 2024, 13:52 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Homeworld 3 has the same problem as Company of Heroes 3, it's a boring mess that looks pretty but plays like crap
14 May 2024, 13:51 PM
Crecer13: but I definitely saw how at the 3rd vet the Crusader had a different turret and cannon. Most likely he gets it automatically.
14 May 2024, 13:05 PM
Crecer13: He either upgrades at the 3rd vet level or receives it automatically. To be honest, I didn't play the Crusader; my main British tank is the Churchill.
14 May 2024, 13:03 PM
DonnieChan: so you need vet3? i remember i could upgrde it once, but it was like half a year ago
14 May 2024, 13:00 PM
Crecer13: If nothing has changed, then the Crusader gets a new turret and gun at 3rd vet
14 May 2024, 12:58 PM
DonnieChan: can't, there is only option for MG
14 May 2024, 12:43 PM
Katitof: click on the upgrade on crusader?
14 May 2024, 11:42 AM
DonnieChan: how do i upgrade that?
14 May 2024, 11:08 AM
Katitof: there is no long barrel crusader, there is 75mm upgrade on it
14 May 2024, 10:08 AM
DonnieChan: where can you buy the long barrrel crusaders i dont find the option?
14 May 2024, 09:42 AM
OKSpitfire: Yeah, was hoping it would be a bit better received, seems to have its flaws.
14 May 2024, 08:28 AM
PatFenis: oh nvm. he was laid off in 2023
14 May 2024, 06:06 AM
PatFenis: quinn duffy's homeworld 3 seems to have a rough reception. I like that people are starting to take apart EULAs.
14 May 2024, 05:28 AM
shinasukac: man of war 2 is about to release
14 May 2024, 04:00 AM
Rosbone: Hopefully Relic has a way to store them in a database and SQL out any OP reviews :snfQuinn:
13 May 2024, 19:22 PM
Katitof: basic IQ test before writing a review would be nice
13 May 2024, 19:18 PM
Rosbone: Not sure how Relic can win: "Dont buy Coh3 allies op!" or "Dont buy Coh3 Axis OP!" are popular reviews :facepalm:
13 May 2024, 16:12 PM
Katitof: I consider black prince to be much scarier than anything CoH2 allies had
13 May 2024, 09:59 AM
OKSpitfire: I suppose that it had scarier allied heavies to go toe to toe with in 2.
13 May 2024, 08:03 AM
Katitof: why was it so op in coh2?
13 May 2024, 07:13 AM
IJustDontCare: Why is the Panther in Coh3 so fucking bad
13 May 2024, 01:50 AM
DonnieChan: Recently played some games again (1v1) and was positively surprised. Lot of tactical variety and dynamic
12 May 2024, 23:25 PM
Willy Pete: @NorthWeapon sc2? I think you mean aoe2 DE: https://steamcharts.com/app/813780
12 May 2024, 01:26 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: It's a sad thing when free is still too expensive
11 May 2024, 22:24 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I've played Company of Heroes 3 for about 4 hours now and I'm pretty much done forever with that so Helldivers 2 still wins that equation
11 May 2024, 22:24 PM
ShadowLinkX37: eh if it's holding players with good reviews it's good enough for me. Games barely come with content nowadays anyways and expect players to do the beta testing
11 May 2024, 21:20 PM
aerafield: Helldivers 2 is a good game but also super overhyped. It has 2 weeks worth of content and then you're done forever. Which is completely fine
11 May 2024, 20:38 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I likewise don't think anyone expected Helldivers 2 to be a massive success. I had it preordered purely because I enjoyed the first one so much, I was expecting a modest success at best
11 May 2024, 20:15 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: It's a flawed comparison, I admit, but does it mean the general lack of interest in RTS games is because they're inherently niche, or because nobody's done anything interesting with them in a long time?
11 May 2024, 20:14 PM
NorthWeapon: If we compare RTS games, its doing better than SC2: https://sc2pulse.nephest.com/sc2/?to=1715400000000&period=WEEK&type=online#online. And SC2 is the most popular RTS atm
11 May 2024, 19:26 PM
NorthWeapon: @Vermillion_Hawk if Helldivers 2 was a RTS it would've been a dead game or arrival
11 May 2024, 19:25 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Guess I'd better download it myself and see what all the fuss isn't about
11 May 2024, 18:45 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Saturday on a free weekend and the game's barely pulling a tenth of Helldivers 2's players months after that game launched
11 May 2024, 18:44 PM
Duffman: That number does not fit his narrative @aerafield :)
11 May 2024, 14:17 PM
FeelMemoryAcceptance: When they will NERF their noob DLC rangers. They are CHEAT
11 May 2024, 13:15 PM
Rosbone: Thats why working with Sturmpanther was such a great experience for me. He played and understood each mode. Really helped make the map updates successful for each mode.
10 May 2024, 18:15 PM
Rosbone: Some enjoy Crossroads hopping in and out of the VP buildings to get recon and plan your next attack. Others like the Redball middle VP destruction as you flank behind and wipe all of the Katys with a hero puma.
10 May 2024, 18:12 PM
Rosbone: @DonnieChan I totally get it. Thats what I am saying. Coh works for everyone. No one is better than the other. Its just different.
10 May 2024, 18:10 PM
Cpl.Mackinnon: does anyone know how to unlock the canadian light infantry badge?
10 May 2024, 17:51 PM
DonnieChan: @Rosbone For me it's the opposite. Uncoordinated Blobbing and players stalling from t1 to t4 arty spam takes away depth and beauty of the game
10 May 2024, 17:44 PM
aerafield: Pretty much. 4v4s and 3v3s are hard because of how bad your teammates for the most part. 2s and 1s are hard because of how good your opponent is
10 May 2024, 14:24 PM
NorthWeapon: 2v2 and 1v1 you're guaranteed to have a sweat match. All 1v1 players are generally better than the 3v3/4v4 players so its just always going to be a sweat match and a lot of times that's just exhausting
10 May 2024, 14:09 PM
NorthWeapon: 3v3 is fun because I can spam air support company without them getting shot down. 2v2 is fun for my try hard meta builds. And 1v1 is fun when I really am pissed at teammates. But 3v3/4v4 lets you do the stupid things, and that's why it is the best gamemode
10 May 2024, 14:08 PM
NorthWeapon: 4v4 is fun because I can do stupid things like make 4 dingos and then 3 humbers and spam caches with the naval battlegroup
10 May 2024, 14:07 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone the new video portrays this very well too. 1v1 is NOT the future of CoH at all, never was https://youtu.be/7ymKjz2gjiQ?si=Ow3tbWITrKrWjQoM&t=870
10 May 2024, 13:54 PM
Rosbone: Judging from the player counts in Coh vs any FPS, the % of chess style players is very low. Most people want to blow stuff up. So get used to 6k max players until Relic figures that out and markets it properly.
10 May 2024, 13:22 PM
Rosbone: Every good game can be played different ways. Coh does that. You can be precise and calculating or you can be nuts and just blow it all up. That is the secret sauce to Cohs success.
10 May 2024, 13:14 PM
Rosbone: Another analogy: 1v1 = Firecracker. 4v4 = Nukes. One scratches your itch better than the other.
10 May 2024, 13:11 PM
Rosbone: That is why bridge maps rule the casual scene. They force the mayhem to happen. Its not because players suck. Its that they crave the mass destruction.
10 May 2024, 13:09 PM
Rosbone: 4v4 players enjoy the game and its mayhem. 1v1 players are elitests and only care about dominating the other player. That is why Coh3 sucks. It is geared to 1v1s boring ass chess style play. That is NOT what made Coh popular.
10 May 2024, 13:08 PM
Rosbone: Show huge push pan to player "Oh my god! This is insane! Its so crazy there is so much shit everywhere! AHHHHHHHH!"
10 May 2024, 13:02 PM
Rosbone: That is the thing I feel Relic really needs to sell Coh. To somehow put that feeling into a video. They try with the large arty strikes and tank pushes. But they need actual players plaing the game and yelling about what is happening for people to get it.
10 May 2024, 13:01 PM
Rosbone: Its the difference between Tea-Cups and Assholes-and-Elbows!
10 May 2024, 13:00 PM
Rosbone: That to me is what makes Coh the best game ever made. Watching a Volk and IS pot shot each other is the worst game ever made.
10 May 2024, 12:58 PM
Rosbone: @DonnieChan Or maybe having a single unit fight another single unit is boring as ****. Nothing like the last few VPs and all 8 armies are in mid wailing away on the VP :hansGASM:
10 May 2024, 12:57 PM
aerafield: They = 1v1 players of course :snfPeter:
10 May 2024, 12:35 PM
aerafield: You're so right of course. They want to shift to new horizons and blame everything on the map, balance, spawn and RNG instead
10 May 2024, 12:34 PM
aerafield: You
10 May 2024, 12:34 PM
DonnieChan: Unpopular opinion: people who never played 1v1 are cowards and play teamgames to always want to blame their allies when they lose
10 May 2024, 12:12 PM
Rosbone: @Hannibal What if you are banned? :foreveralone: Sounds good! Lets hope for some fresh bodies.
09 May 2024, 22:07 PM
Hannibal: Just for everyone that might have missed it: CoH3 is free to play until the end of the weekend
09 May 2024, 21:29 PM
Rosbone: And it was a random game. No premades.
09 May 2024, 05:20 AM
Rosbone: Dudes had their base and the field right outside it. Thats it. Like 1 Tpoint. Brutal.
09 May 2024, 05:20 AM
Rosbone: FHQ game on lorch, we pushed thru mid and started FHQs. I went US air and was dropping MGs and AT guns for everyone. Best game ever.
09 May 2024, 05:18 AM
Willy Pete: lol no
08 May 2024, 23:53 PM
NorthWeapon: I used to park a Calliope at the Soviet or UKF hq and now the whole team has Calliopes
08 May 2024, 23:23 PM
NorthWeapon: Some other funny cheese strats was Calliope spam and giving Calliopes to teammates.What a broken but funny game
08 May 2024, 23:22 PM
NorthWeapon: It was so low risk. Its just a small fuel investment and you even get the baby AT guns which used to snipe infantry HAHAHAHA
08 May 2024, 23:21 PM
NorthWeapon: When they start burning every house down, lol
08 May 2024, 23:20 PM
aerafield: also back then it was very hard to get destroy concrete houses. OKW had nothing, Wehrmacht only had the flamer 251. Handheld flamers or mortars took 10 years
08 May 2024, 22:38 PM
aerafield: I've won so many games that were basically unwinable on paper because of this doctrine back then
08 May 2024, 22:36 PM
NorthWeapon: Ahahahaha yes that was the best, it was a FHQ rush to building
08 May 2024, 22:35 PM
NorthWeapon: I once got FHQ'd really bad on the 2v2 WFA farm map with the buildings on the south, got a taste of my own medicine. And the opponent started bming me cuz he knew I had the contraversion opinion of keeping the broken stuff. I still defend my position
08 May 2024, 22:35 PM
aerafield: remember when soviet FHQ was 0 cp and you could deploy them in enemy territory :rofl: good times
08 May 2024, 22:34 PM
NorthWeapon: Steppes was a fail for obvious reasons. The big 5 vp map was okay, it didn't let you shut down the enemy because of the safe fuel and the buildings were only on the north away from base sectors or fuel
08 May 2024, 22:33 PM
NorthWeapon: Some maps like City 17 was the best, with big buildings right next to enemy HQ. Other maps like Red Ball Express you had to close the game quick. Other maps like Lienne Forrest was very fun and easy to lock out opponent
08 May 2024, 22:32 PM
NorthWeapon: Some of my fondest memories in CoH 2 was 4v4 FHQ cheese on Discord. FHQ cheese all the way to base
08 May 2024, 22:31 PM
Willy Pete: Command p4 was dumb as hell in coh2 team games. Was once 20% dmg reduction shared with tm8s, complete nonsense. It's only 10% now but it's still dumb as hell. Never should of been shared
08 May 2024, 17:59 PM
aerafield: soviet fhq aura is still very strong, now it's "only" +50% accurace flat and most importantly, a timed ability with cooldown
08 May 2024, 15:51 PM
OKSpitfire: A bit like the current OKW command panther, it could start out weak and get stronger. Hard to achieve but definitely not as high as a 50% buff. That's so funny that it used to be that strong.
08 May 2024, 15:15 PM
OKSpitfire: 50% is crazy yeah. That seems like it would be incredibly broken. It would be nice if it was balanced around helping your team mates vehicles too though.
08 May 2024, 15:13 PM
aerafield: teammates* jesus. Or OKW blobs when command p4 aura was -20% received damage :foreveralone:
08 May 2024, 14:55 PM
aerafield: Teannates being affected by your own aura abilities was the dumbest shit ever. Think of the command panther or the old soviet FHQ with permanent +50% damage +50% armor aura
08 May 2024, 14:52 PM
OKSpitfire: Wonder if that's on purpose or just another COH 3 half-assed design fail.
08 May 2024, 14:07 PM
OKSpitfire: I wish the command tank was a little bit more interesting... The unit itself is fine but the aura is meh. I don't think it benefits your team mates in team games.
08 May 2024, 14:06 PM
Rosbone: Relic has all the excitement of a zit faced noob 16 year old greeting you at McDonalds. You want fries with that? Then forgets your fries and napkins.
08 May 2024, 11:42 AM
Rosbone: I am not salty at all. I am depressed my fav game is made by people who dont even like the game. I am just stating facts. No emotion in these statements at all. Some comedic value on occasion.
08 May 2024, 11:40 AM
Rosbone: It is indicative that Relic has no idea what they are doing. Coh3 is a fast car with no speedometer. Fun but how fast were you going? Did you break a record? We will never know.
08 May 2024, 11:39 AM
Rosbone: @NaOCl Have you never watched Duffman reach 100 kills with his KT? Have you never seen pros exceeding 3 kills per minute with a sniper? Kill counts is a learning tool also. People watching can see when Vet will kick in etc.
08 May 2024, 11:38 AM
NaOCl: I personally hope relic keeps doing what they're doing. I have 4k hours in CoH2, 1k in Coh1. I'm staying with CoH3, its got the makings of a masterpiece. Relic deserves community support, not constant negativity
08 May 2024, 03:53 AM
NaOCl: Relic is doing a good job, CoH3 is way better at 1 year than CoH2 was at 1 year.
08 May 2024, 03:51 AM
NaOCl: @Rosbone You're always so salty, being able to see if a unit kills 30 or 31 enemy units has no impact on viewing pleasure for most people. Even watching CoH2 casts I rarely ever noticed kills on one unit. Saying its "super boring" without this is excessive
08 May 2024, 03:50 AM
NorthWeapon: Sorry, I think it was Jibber
08 May 2024, 00:52 AM
Farlon: @Sturmpanther what even makes coh2 teamgames fun
07 May 2024, 23:02 PM
Sturmpanther: But i think in 3-4 patches teamgames could be good in coh3. So keep checking the patchnotes
07 May 2024, 22:59 PM
Sturmpanther: I do not play coh3 because teamgames make no fun. So thats why i still play coh2.
07 May 2024, 22:59 PM
Sturmpanther: @NorthWeapon i never said this! Makes no sense. I never had any issue in coh3 about delay
07 May 2024, 22:58 PM
aerafield: "easier to play" does not equal to "stronger" or "overpowered/unbalanced"
07 May 2024, 22:52 PM
aerafield: linear teching, always access to all the tools you need no matter how you tech, no weapon racks, best defensive MGs, retreatable AT guns, 1000 HP tanks where brainAFK isn't getting punished
07 May 2024, 22:46 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra this isn't about balance. This is about which side is objectively easier to play. If you are standing on a hill trying to say that Wehr or ooga booga OKW are as hard (or harder) to play than the allies factions, I can't help you
07 May 2024, 22:44 PM
NorthWeapon: @Sturmpanther you said you'd return to CoH 3 if they fixed the input delay. What's the verdict?
07 May 2024, 21:51 PM
Lady Xenarra: @NorthWeapon Yes well, I was getting tired of seeing top ranking ppl attempt to 'skill dodge' a Zeroing Artilley
07 May 2024, 19:28 PM
Lady Xenarra: I know it -feels- like chopping your arm off but losing the match because *defeated by MG42* deels much worse.
07 May 2024, 19:24 PM
Lady Xenarra: By that metric, cons are incredible, because they outscale even grens at 7man. USF tech tree has been pretty simple in my experience. LT for 1v1 and CPT for teamgames. Soviets refusing to backtech for a mortar is on the player, it's not that expensive.
07 May 2024, 19:23 PM
NorthWeapon: @Lady Xenarra hurr durr CoH 2 is unbalanced allies OP after a decade of tournaments and balance patches
07 May 2024, 19:23 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield When Allied tanks cost the same as Axis tanks they can then have the same 'forgiveness level'. Which is the case for Comet, IS-2 and arguably the ISU. Rifle nade is OP true, but an inf unit being very powerful at vet III is to be expected.
07 May 2024, 19:21 PM
NorthWeapon: I regret searching that word and bombarded by pictures
07 May 2024, 19:20 PM
NorthWeapon: strange knowledge of vocabulary you got there... afraid to ask what you search on google in your spare time
07 May 2024, 19:19 PM
Rosbone: Its not like COh3 sucks pangolin cloaca, its just nowhere near what it should have been. Relic knows this. But they dont know what or why its not there yet. And I dont see it ever happening. Relic, call me. I will get you fixed up yo.
07 May 2024, 17:11 PM
Rosbone: Not if you are a fan of the game and watch Twitch. Another thing Relic apparently doesnt do. Its just a symptom of a much larger problem at Relic.
07 May 2024, 16:06 PM
Willy Pete: Like of all the things in coh3 to focus on...
07 May 2024, 13:23 PM
Willy Pete: That's a really weird thing to be upset about tbh
07 May 2024, 13:22 PM
Rosbone: @NaOCl You cant hover over a streamers XP bar. Makes streaming super boring to watch. Relic is clueless. No idea what they are doing.
07 May 2024, 10:07 AM
OKSpitfire: I'd welcome that, Donnie. But I think that it's very unlikely.
07 May 2024, 09:29 AM
DonnieChan: Do you think it is technically possible to overhaul the sound completely? then i would reconsider playingit i think
07 May 2024, 09:27 AM
NaOCl: Why does everyone say there is no kill count in CoH3, hover over xp bar to see units kills
07 May 2024, 08:46 AM
aerafield: In the meantime, 50% of all random automatch games in CoH2 have been lost because the soviet or USF player went for the wrong tech tree, and you're stuck with a penal/cons player against MG42 spam and gren blobs.
06 May 2024, 22:39 PM
aerafield: You can say what you want and it's all fair but I've been noticing this trend ever since CoH existed. Inexperienced and more casual players always tend to gravitate towards the axis factions
06 May 2024, 22:34 PM
aerafield: Squishy wehr grens are no thing anymore since the vet 3 change, and they are A-Move machines. And always free grenades/snades unlock and pretty much impossible to buy the "wrong" tech building
06 May 2024, 22:31 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra so we're gonna pretend like units such as KT, Panther, Tiger and the likes are not 10x more forgiving to use if one has trash micro? Compared to 95% of the allies tanks which explode if you make one small mistake :snfPeter:
06 May 2024, 22:30 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Ahh yes, I remember fondly my volksgrens lasting long in firefights in COH1 and 2. The superb OKW tech tree linearity and durable 4 man gren squads.
06 May 2024, 19:46 PM
aerafield: I doubt it, you can see winrates of the last two weeks here: https://coh3stats.com/stats/games?from=2024-04-18&to=2024-05-03&mode=4v4 To be honest axis has always been training wheels mode in CoH. Linear teching, units that die way slower etc
06 May 2024, 19:12 PM
IJustDontCare: but it could also be the fact people give up really at the first sign of trouble
06 May 2024, 17:56 PM
IJustDontCare: not that it matters but 4v4s in coh3 are so allied favor it feels like
06 May 2024, 17:56 PM
SneakEye: Oh that's a shame. I saw the Scott having the correct range and the Raid Section is included. Will inform Hash_Silencer (all credits to him btw)
06 May 2024, 17:09 PM
aerafield: @SneakEye the first weapon I checked (Pathfinder sniper rifle) still shows the completely wrong stats lol
06 May 2024, 14:51 PM
SneakEye: https://coh2.serealia.ca/ is updated!!
06 May 2024, 13:12 PM
SneakEye: For everyone still playing CoH2:

Hannibal: AE+Stormless might be the only caster combo to get me to watch a CoH3 tourney at the moment
03 May 2024, 22:25 PM
Rosbone: https://www.twitch.tv/danield_coh Tourney on now?
03 May 2024, 17:35 PM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete Yep. It was a blast back in the day. Sadly I missed the early ORG tourney stuff. but I was around for the later Stormless+AE stuff and beyond. Great fun. Sadly Coh3 is unwatchable for me. No excitement due to no kills, bad sound, etc.
03 May 2024, 17:20 PM
Rosbone: All of the latest updates have been to bolster MP numbers, which is good for most of us here. I am actually pushing for more changes for skirmish players: UI kills, UI menu, and AI is bad. Never takes points, follows your units, etc.
03 May 2024, 17:17 PM
Rosbone: The real indicator for Coh3 is single player. We have no idea how it is doing there. I still see people saying it locks on campaigns and they have to restart. Skirmish seems decent enough for most players.
03 May 2024, 17:14 PM
Willy Pete: Ahh copy that. I don't use twitch my b
03 May 2024, 17:12 PM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete Clueless is a smiling emote on Twitch. DF is not calling anyone clueless. See if Relic didnt fail so bad, you guys would know the emotes because we would all be watching Coh3 tourneys Sadge
03 May 2024, 17:10 PM
OKSpitfire: Agreed.
03 May 2024, 16:36 PM
Willy Pete: Fair enough. Not like I disagree with criticism of the game. But it genuinely has gotten better, even after the cut from Sega. Tho obviously that's not good long-term
03 May 2024, 16:29 PM
OKSpitfire: No, I know you didn't. Was just pointing it out.

Willy Pete: I didn't say he wasn't. But calling people clueless when apparently it took him 1000 games to decide it was dead is pretty dumb
03 May 2024, 16:25 PM
OKSpitfire: He actually plays the game that he criticises though, unlike some people. Nobody can say he's not being fair.
03 May 2024, 16:23 PM
Willy Pete: Yeah I was massively disappointed with coh3. Ill still go back to it to give it shot tho, and apparently so do you
03 May 2024, 16:20 PM
Willy Pete: "It's a failed game" - guy with over 1000 matches
03 May 2024, 16:18 PM
OKSpitfire: True, it's definitely hooked up to a life support machine at the moment.
03 May 2024, 16:18 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Its pretty obvious that some people seriously believe Sega letting Relic go was a good thing. People also still cope about COH3 not being a failed game. Even though everywhere outside COH forums, says its a failed game. Clueless
03 May 2024, 16:06 PM
OKSpitfire: The phrase 'dead weight' springs to mind.
03 May 2024, 15:57 PM
OKSpitfire: Is anyone really pretending that, though? I thought it was pretty cut and dry. Creative Assembly are the massive cashcow while Relic.... not so much.
03 May 2024, 15:55 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: I just got fired from my job. Or I just found time to become an independent entrepreneur :)
03 May 2024, 15:51 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: People still don’t understand the narrative? That Sega fired relic? Relic didn’t go independent? LOL. Its like saying Germany didn’t lose the war, they let the allies win. Perspective is magical.
03 May 2024, 15:50 PM
OKSpitfire: He does have a point, in all fairness. They are almost certainly still on very thin ice right now. Was just poking fun at the fact that hell will freeze over before he gives them even an ounce of credit for successfully improving the game.
03 May 2024, 15:44 PM
NorthWeapon: Halo Wars was one of my favorite games of all time and MS quickly shut them down, very upsetting. They may not be independent entirely but they are definitely publisher free
03 May 2024, 15:38 PM
NorthWeapon: Publishers are known to close studios down. Now that Relic doesn't have a publisher, it is more likely that they will survive unlike their AoE predecessors Ensemble Studios that were shutdown by MS or C&C creators
03 May 2024, 15:36 PM
OKSpitfire: It'll all be over soon... real soon! Right Vermillion? :rofl:
03 May 2024, 15:15 PM
OKSpitfire: Yes, this is a game studio's longest death spiral ever.
03 May 2024, 15:14 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: There's a reason why there hasn't been a new roadmap.
03 May 2024, 14:26 PM
NorthWeapon: we need a roadmap. The base game is pretty good now, now we need a huge content injection. Art, sounds, battlegroups, factions, try different mechanics we haven't seen before like return of partisans out of buildings, and some heavy tanks llike croc & nash
03 May 2024, 00:38 AM
maritn: Regarding saving vetos, if you change the player count you have to re-select all vetos. If CoH3 manages to keep them it's definitely an improvement.
02 May 2024, 16:56 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield That is what I imagined. Thanks.
01 May 2024, 22:00 PM
aerafield: CoH2 menu in 2013 was not that bad actually. A bit half-assed, but way better than CoH3 launch menu. It had a cool atmosphere with animated background too
01 May 2024, 21:43 PM
Rosbone: And people think Relic cares about you :rofl:
01 May 2024, 21:40 PM
Rosbone: I wrote makoCelo for a select few streamers to use. I even went and put in features I knew no one would ever use. Relic is like lets sell millions of copies. Should we finish it first? Nah F'it! Ship it!
01 May 2024, 21:39 PM
Rosbone: Imagine what a cloaca you would have to be to put out a Skin store a year+ before your menus even work.
01 May 2024, 21:35 PM
Rosbone: I wish I played Coh2 back in 2013. So I could fully understand. My guess is Coh2s menu was probably more than 20% done at inception. Coh3 is finally at 70% done. Someday maybe. Cohpium.
01 May 2024, 21:33 PM
Duffman: Did coh2 need new animations? or UI changes?
01 May 2024, 20:41 PM
NorthWeapon: They are making core code changes, not just tweaking balance numbers. CoH stopped doing that pretty early on. When did we ever get UI or animation changes for example? In CoH 2 we got new commanders and balance changes
01 May 2024, 20:34 PM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone I disagree about "no hope" but I will not pretend its going amazing
01 May 2024, 19:22 PM
Lady Xenarra: Right, what could go wrong with the 105mm shooting every 7-8s
01 May 2024, 19:13 PM
voltardark: Try last patch and we have a winner ! Good job dev you may have just saved the game !
01 May 2024, 17:59 PM
Rosbone: @Willy Pete Exactly. Coh2 is damn near perfect. Unlike what the company form of a cloaca pushed out. Patch is neet but doesnt do what it says it does. Still no hope for Coh3s success. Just move on. So much fail it hurts my eyes.
01 May 2024, 17:53 PM
Willy Pete: I want coh3 to succeed as much as anyone. Just have high standards for it, and thats only cause of how good I feel coh2 was
01 May 2024, 14:59 PM
NorthWeapon: Yes, that is also true
01 May 2024, 14:56 PM
Willy Pete: Or maybe I just disagreed with you? And corrected your mistake?
01 May 2024, 14:49 PM
NorthWeapon: Maybe you're jaded with videogames. It didn't take much for me to like CoH 3
01 May 2024, 14:16 PM
Willy Pete: The most impressive thing about the patch is that it exists. Its nice Relic hasnt abandoned ship despite all the company changes
01 May 2024, 14:09 PM
Willy Pete: Acting like map votes being unshared is an impressiv innovation is adorable
01 May 2024, 14:08 PM
Willy Pete: One new thing. And that new thing is party spawns which is nice, but not even a factor in most matches...
01 May 2024, 14:05 PM
NorthWeapon: Okay yeah I was not too sure if the match selection thing was in CoH 2. So its two new things. For me its impressive because CoH 3 has been struggling compared to CoH 2, when I see things that CoH 2 doesn't have it is impressive
01 May 2024, 11:52 AM
Duffman: Coh2 always saves vetoes and game mode selection.
01 May 2024, 09:58 AM
empirescurropt: https://www.twitch.tv/crazytugaelite rank 3 vs rank 4 mega fight
01 May 2024, 09:58 AM
Willy Pete: i just played 2 for the first time in months the other day and my modes and vetos were all saved from last time
01 May 2024, 03:14 AM
Willy Pete: and thats very impressive? calling the votes new is generous lol, and match selection save is absolutely in coh2
01 May 2024, 03:14 AM
NorthWeapon: no there are 3 news. team spawns, separate downvotes, and match selection save (pretty sure coh2 did not do this)
30 Apr 2024, 23:37 PM
Protos Angelus: Finally the double click is coming. Dev confirmed it after necroed all the posts about it
30 Apr 2024, 21:38 PM
Willy Pete: The part you quoted is the only thing that looks truly new...
30 Apr 2024, 18:18 PM
Willy Pete: "very impressive?" It looks okay but some of that is catching up to coh2...
30 Apr 2024, 18:18 PM
NorthWeapon: Very impressive patch, this stuff is an improvement from CoH 2: https://www.reddit.com/r/CompanyOfHeroes/comments/1cgxly3/pc_165_patch_mission_briefing/
30 Apr 2024, 17:12 PM
NorthWeapon: "(for example a party of two in a 4v4 match), they will now always be placed next to one another. This means friends can now play together regardless of their team size, allowing for better strategy and communication. "
30 Apr 2024, 17:12 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah fair point, some of them actually sound quite good in an authentic 'i'm hearing this from very far away' sort of way. But overall so much of it sounds bloody awful lol.
29 Apr 2024, 17:51 PM
aerafield: And then there is the CoH3 sounds where Im asking myself how tf it got into the game and still is. Why the fuck does the M1 Garand rifle sound like a toy nerf gun
29 Apr 2024, 15:59 PM
aerafield: down to*
29 Apr 2024, 15:57 PM
aerafield: I think not all, but much of it comes down how they did an experiment by focusing their entire sound design on "realism" rather than "big hollywood explosion sound". Turns out historic weapon sounds are often a bit dull
29 Apr 2024, 15:55 PM
OKSpitfire: The sound is the biggest disappointment for me too, they just never seemed to notice or care about what a big part it played in making the first game great.
29 Apr 2024, 12:27 PM
NorthWeapon: UI, sound, vfx are so bad its strange. Its like they had a huge runway for programming and gameplay, then way at the end they were like, nope, we got no time for all the sounds and UI, we gotta release now
29 Apr 2024, 12:22 PM
NorthWeapon: They did well with the programming and went terrible with production, it makes no sense. Programming is the most expensive part and takes the longest time
29 Apr 2024, 12:15 PM
NorthWeapon: why did they go so bad with the sounds, I don't get it. That's like the least expensive part!!!
29 Apr 2024, 12:05 PM
DonnieChan: my biggest gripes with coh3: duller sound effects. no abaility to tilt camera. no nation-specific voice acting
29 Apr 2024, 08:07 AM
NorthWeapon: Really looking forward to the input delay change. But also CoH 3 has extra infantry animations so that also is responsible for adding extra delay
29 Apr 2024, 03:31 AM
aerafield: @Musafir no, they changed it so some of the different threads in CoH3 don't have to wait on each other anymore, decreasing input delay but increasing the chance for unexpected behavior & bugs
27 Apr 2024, 22:27 PM
Musafir: so are they bringing back that COH2 single threaded mechanism whatever you've described ? @NorthWeapon
27 Apr 2024, 04:48 AM
NorthWeapon: So then you can run input first, update whatever state, then render. Easy, no uncertainty
26 Apr 2024, 21:21 PM
NorthWeapon: "With CoH2, the input layer, game state processor, and the visual state processor all run in a single synchronous CPU processing thread with each system taking its turn in rotation as required for a given processing cycle." 1 thread for all important thing
26 Apr 2024, 21:17 PM
NorthWeapon: @aerafield coh2 is single threaded. Thats why it still runs like trash in modern hardware
26 Apr 2024, 21:15 PM
aerafield: just declare the shared variables as volatile, easy fix :snfPeter: Ok jokes aside, CoH2 managed to have the input commands be super smooth without any dangerous dependencies/race conditions between the threads hmm
26 Apr 2024, 21:12 PM
NorthWeapon: That's the issue with concurrency, you use multiple threads to execute logic simultaneously but it is a lot more challenging to manage because there might dependencies between threads. The bonus is you get fast performance (CoH 3) and a 200% delay reductio
26 Apr 2024, 19:08 PM
NorthWeapon: They removed synchronization between input and render threads, the risk of that is there might be visual artifacts. (things might be rendering that don't match your input). So keep an eye out for that
26 Apr 2024, 19:05 PM
Duffman: Not fixed yet, the patch is not out yet. only real test is a 4v4 after the patch is released :)
26 Apr 2024, 14:54 PM
Lady Xenarra: WTB teammates that don't let a Tiger show up in my rear
24 Apr 2024, 22:28 PM
NorthWeapon: But the biggest danger to making light vehicles in 4v4 is if you're making a lv, the enemy is making a Panzer IV soon
23 Apr 2024, 00:07 AM
NorthWeapon: (4v4/3v3). Its okay, it could work, but you get shut down by a Raketen and these lane maps
23 Apr 2024, 00:06 AM
NorthWeapon: Yes, from personal experience after playing CoH 2 again. I tried to make multiple T70s and enemy has a T4 tank out by the 2nd T70. They are too expensive
23 Apr 2024, 00:05 AM
aerafield: and if the enemy gets them, their impact is super negligible
22 Apr 2024, 22:00 PM
aerafield: @Farlon tbf in teamgames they definitely are kinda useless (yes, even 2v2). You see 222 or 221 for vision, the brit UC and the USF AA HT, that's about it. Luchs, Puma, Stuart, M20 etc are extremely rare
22 Apr 2024, 21:59 PM
Willy Pete: Also coh3 only just recently got to a number of maps that is acceptable...
22 Apr 2024, 20:33 PM
Farlon: @NorthWeapon light vehicles useless? In CoH2?
22 Apr 2024, 19:56 PM
aerafield: Maybe, but what's the point if the teamgame gameplay is way inferior. And "better mapdesign" is debatable too.... I dislike lane maps, but majority of players love them. Lane maps are always very popular if you look at coh2stats.com
22 Apr 2024, 18:26 PM
Protos Angelus: Say what you want about CoH3. The map design is vastly superior to CoH2
22 Apr 2024, 18:10 PM
NorthWeapon: coh 2 has terrible lane maps and light vehicles are useless
22 Apr 2024, 12:06 PM
NorthWeapon: yeah but not until you actually played coh2 again
22 Apr 2024, 00:05 AM
Willy Pete: Pretty sure that's been a verdict for quite some time
21 Apr 2024, 23:36 PM
NorthWeapon: verdict: coh2 is at 2x - 3x better than coh3 in terms of raw gameplay
21 Apr 2024, 23:34 PM
NorthWeapon: wow, that's awesome
21 Apr 2024, 22:51 PM
NorthWeapon: okay i'mma try that lol
21 Apr 2024, 22:21 PM
NorthWeapon: where's the cheapest place to get coh2 for a $1 lol
21 Apr 2024, 22:20 PM
aerafield: No need, just link your main account to it via steam family share, then you get all the DLCs too :rofl:
21 Apr 2024, 22:18 PM
NorthWeapon: I should've taken advantage of the giveaway
21 Apr 2024, 22:16 PM
aerafield: @NorthWeapon just get a smurf account :romeoMug:
21 Apr 2024, 22:15 PM
NorthWeapon: I'm going to walk my conscript up to a sturmpio thinking it'll survive 4 seconds but it dies in 2s
21 Apr 2024, 21:26 PM
NorthWeapon: wish there was a no-sweat matchmaking -- and custom games are not exactly it
21 Apr 2024, 21:25 PM
NorthWeapon: haven't played in 2 years. Anyone else have this issue? I saw even elpern struggling at first when he returned to coh2
21 Apr 2024, 21:24 PM
NorthWeapon: aight so another reason I can't play coh2 is cuz my elo is inflated/incorrect since I'm rusty from coh3. I'm going to be playing with my top 50 account playing like a rank 1000. So i don't even know what to do lol
21 Apr 2024, 21:23 PM
OKSpitfire: Agreed, yeah.
21 Apr 2024, 07:50 AM
aerafield: it's a start yes, but it's like step 1 out of 10 required to adress this problem that makes coh3 teamgames so much more stupid
21 Apr 2024, 00:20 AM
aerafield: Until all the medic halftracks in CoH3 don't perform like the CoH2 USF ambulance (1 shot kill, very slow, needs to set up a static heal mode, doesnt work in enemy territory) then the forward ambu is still gonna be THE broken OP cheese strat in coh3...
21 Apr 2024, 00:19 AM
OKSpitfire: Still need to make it easier to punish IMO. But it's a start.
19 Apr 2024, 11:42 AM
OKSpitfire: Wow, looks like they are finally planning on doing something about the obnoxious forward re-enforcing and healing.
19 Apr 2024, 11:42 AM
Crecer13: The machine gun is installed in the soldier's hatch. Even in such a small matter as making the right place for shooting, Relic screwed up. The creators of the EF mod did it better.
19 Apr 2024, 11:23 AM
Crecer13: Relic is not even able to make a MG bunker correctly, that's what I realized yesterday.
19 Apr 2024, 11:21 AM
Brick Top: @aerafield christ, everything was so stressful back then!
19 Apr 2024, 08:32 AM

17 Apr 2024, 21:07 PM
Katitof: 2% health bulletins ending up being 20% ehp increase in many cases was great
17 Apr 2024, 20:05 PM
OKSpitfire: Haha. I think I remember someone trying to argue that the bulletin system was universally amazing from release in Coh 2 as well, that gave me a good chuckle.
17 Apr 2024, 14:58 PM
aerafield: lmao that packhowitzer trending video from almost 10 years ago, and there is people who say CoH2 was better back then :lolol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-dtRvtI1-w And btw light mortars did the same oneshot wipes back then :)
17 Apr 2024, 12:43 PM
Katitof: Sometimes it feels like CoH3 was your uncle who got inside bathtub with you when you were 5
17 Apr 2024, 08:47 AM
Rosbone: A man was told the only way he could survive the illness was if he played Coh3 everyday. I visited his grave. It was beautiful.
17 Apr 2024, 06:03 AM
Rosbone: If farting in a room full of people and leaving was a game, it would be called Coh3.
17 Apr 2024, 06:01 AM
Rosbone: Sorry. I am upset. I had a copy of Coh3 in my car then someone broke into it. Now I have 3 copies of Coh3 in my car.
17 Apr 2024, 05:35 AM

donofsandiego: if you don't use rangers, I mean
17 Apr 2024, 01:02 AM
donofsandiego: playing us in teamgames is probably as close as you can get to the feeling of cutting a limb off with a butterknife as you can get without becoming an amputee
17 Apr 2024, 01:01 AM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra suggestion: Why don't you play USF for a month straight in order to witness the horrendous faction design (regarding teamgames) yourself?
16 Apr 2024, 22:05 PM
Willy Pete: Everything? AT guns are constantly getting deleted in team games, no matter which faction
16 Apr 2024, 21:06 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield M1 is unreliable against what? Tiger? Hellcat is still very effective for a 70 FU turreted TD.
16 Apr 2024, 19:21 PM
donofsandiego: besucha
16 Apr 2024, 17:52 PM
aerafield: the moment when a bazooka ranger squad with the new bazooka damage upgrade is the only reliable AT option
16 Apr 2024, 14:31 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Who thought giving a TD the same range as a heavy would be a bad idea :)
16 Apr 2024, 13:37 PM
aerafield: Isn't USF unplayable dogshit in teamgames without rangers though
16 Apr 2024, 13:34 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah they're still pretty stupid
16 Apr 2024, 07:13 AM
Willy Pete: or just move rangers back. and require upgrade in base sector. u know common sense ideas
15 Apr 2024, 20:41 PM
Lady Xenarra: Maybe Guastatori get AT satchels back at a cost increase nerf? :rofl:

15 Apr 2024, 19:22 PM
Brick Top: @NorthWeapon Honestly, the map hacking isnt that bad, and if they are, they are probably devoid of skill, so you can often overcome them anyway. Vast majority of matches are still good
13 Apr 2024, 17:44 PM
Willy Pete: Probably? That sounds like coh2
13 Apr 2024, 17:36 PM

11 Apr 2024, 19:22 PM
aerafield: @NorthWeapon at least they fixed drophacking in CoH3, so there's that... if the game survives :foreveralone:
11 Apr 2024, 18:05 PM
donofsandiego: did vipper die :*(
11 Apr 2024, 17:30 PM
OKSpitfire: drum roll :D
11 Apr 2024, 16:37 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: People have to want to play a game for maphacking to become an issue.
11 Apr 2024, 16:27 PM
NorthWeapon: CoH 3 should have no excuse for map hacking. Some clever defensive programming should make it more difficult (but not impossible) to maphack. Considering AoE IV has maphacks, I am 90% sure CoH 3 is vulnerable as well
11 Apr 2024, 16:14 PM
NorthWeapon: CoH 1 was using the 1990s - early 2000s style peer to peer networking architecture for multiplayer due to several reasons. p2p gives access to sensitive game state to clients (especially the host) resulting in hacking and drop hacking
11 Apr 2024, 16:12 PM
Lady Xenarra: COH3 awaits you all.
11 Apr 2024, 15:50 PM
aerafield: In CoH1 it was basically a maphacker and/or drophacker in every 2nd lobby that you got
11 Apr 2024, 15:02 PM
KoRneY: That really sucks. It got pretty bad at the end of Coh 1 too.
11 Apr 2024, 02:45 AM
ShadowLinkX37: Yeah the maphacking is really bad. Now instead of assuming your opponent has good game sense you assume maphacking. It's really sad to see CoH2 go out like that
10 Apr 2024, 22:53 PM
NorthWeapon: They can remove the maphacking if they change the code for fog of war, but that's a lot of effort. Essentially fog of war is completely client side, if you get obtain the memory pointing to the flag to toggle the fog, you can disable fog
10 Apr 2024, 21:12 PM
NorthWeapon: I want to play CoH 2... but I heard there's lots of maphackers so I don't want to verse chinese maphackers

07 Apr 2024, 17:42 PM

07 Apr 2024, 08:45 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra Do you at least admit to being horribly biased? Cuz seeing you mock the reddit for being an allied group therapy session (not even saying you're wrong) is pretty comical
07 Apr 2024, 00:18 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: I love 2s. COH3 team games have been bad since launch. Still are. The most tolerable game mode is 1s. Not good.
06 Apr 2024, 16:57 PM
Grim: team game balance is pretty rough atm
06 Apr 2024, 14:14 PM
Lady Xenarra: Aside from Marders having the usual pathfinding issues, no one decent is going to send their BP in unsupported. At least complain that the Tiger comes too early now or something. That actually is an issue.
06 Apr 2024, 12:23 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Ah yes, as everyone knows week 1 data post-patch is clearly a good representation of the balance. Brummbar to defeat a CP1 unit..... :ph34r:
06 Apr 2024, 12:20 PM
aerafield: As Wehr I assume you need Brummbärs vs Rangers
06 Apr 2024, 11:31 AM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra how exactly are you losing Marders to AT inf when you can 1) just drive away or 2) screen with StuG-E, P3, MGs or inf of your own
06 Apr 2024, 11:29 AM
PatFenis: https://www.stopkillinggames.com/ - In case somebody didnt hear of this yet. If you have 'the Crew' its time to act, and ask publishers/devs to provide dev tools after discontinuing support of online service games. Fuck ubisoft in general btw.

aerafield: Have you tried drag-selecting 3 to 5 Marders which I bet is still the 0 IQ works most of the time axis cheese strat in teamgames
05 Apr 2024, 20:39 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete Well even a patient on life support can kill you if you run over a field labelled 'mine be here'. In any case, no one has explained how a 440 armor tank can be beaten if piloted decently+.
05 Apr 2024, 20:25 PM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra didnt you say axis on life support like 2 days ago?
05 Apr 2024, 19:39 PM
aerafield: Rangers in CoH3 just show how the inf TTK actually should look like
05 Apr 2024, 16:23 PM
OKSpitfire: Can confirm, Rangers still seem borderline broken.
05 Apr 2024, 15:05 PM
Lady Xenarra: @PatFenis The COH reddit has loooooong been a joke regarding balance discussions. They're just in an uproar because the usual ez Allied strats don't work now. Aside from Rangers...
05 Apr 2024, 14:43 PM
PatFenis: From how its looking I wont ever touchh coh3 as there are even less chances that the game becomes what I expected from the get go.
05 Apr 2024, 14:11 PM
PatFenis: I mean, im used to shit opinions from here during coh2, but the subreddit is polarized from one day to another. Praising AE & Relic while pushing content, to now just dunking on AE relic and aparently this patch is literally the worst.
05 Apr 2024, 14:09 PM
Valeran: Around 140 employees
05 Apr 2024, 11:18 AM
Hannibal: How many people are now left at Relic? I thought they had ~400 at release, first layoff ~120, now ~40. So 200-250 left?
05 Apr 2024, 08:43 AM
omertalha99: game is not fun, when units leave combat , they are still doing aim sight with weapon while rotating , what is this ?
04 Apr 2024, 20:34 PM
omertalha99: what is more, ı am trying to help the coh community, i love coh2, 6200 hours, ı could buy more commanders or dlcs, for coh3 ı noticed boosted comments made by AECOH or good reviews , they are mostly fake or written in vain, what are they thinking?
04 Apr 2024, 20:32 PM
omertalha99: what happened to relic guys and why they released an unfinished game? also ı see they delete bad comments on coh3, company became a dictatorship lol.
04 Apr 2024, 20:30 PM
KoRneY: Those radio guys are tough as nails
04 Apr 2024, 03:55 AM
donofsandiego: Respect to the radioman for continuing to update command on the situation after his tank blew up
03 Apr 2024, 14:57 PM
Lady Xenarra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dunMVt8qGXE Ok maybe the Sherman does need a buff :lolol:
03 Apr 2024, 14:48 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: @aerafield I think that's pretty obviously happening already.
03 Apr 2024, 13:14 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah, he needs some new material. Can you do another delusional post about unit diversity, Vermillion? I really enjoyed that one.
03 Apr 2024, 11:55 AM
aerafield: @Vermillion_Hawk so when's the CoH3/Relic shutdown you have promised was gonna happen months ago already gonna drop?
03 Apr 2024, 11:19 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: I love how dropping a patch and two free battlegroups has done fuck all for the playercount. Gotta refill the popcorn.
03 Apr 2024, 07:44 AM
donofsandiego: I love it
03 Apr 2024, 02:39 AM
donofsandiego: ALSO IT'S LITERALLY OPERATION SKORPION AT ALL TIMES IF YOU DON'T KILL THE HALFTRACK XDD
03 Apr 2024, 02:39 AM
donofsandiego: good for wipes on doo doo players xD
03 Apr 2024, 02:39 AM
donofsandiego: as a confirmed 4v4 player, I have to say that the funkwagen is a FUN unit
03 Apr 2024, 02:38 AM
aerafield: Smoke canisters ammo cost from 0 to 25, DAK apes in shambles now that they must think about positioning their vehicles
03 Apr 2024, 02:02 AM
Willy Pete: yea makes a lot more sense for the front armor to be that high when side armor actually exists in this game
02 Apr 2024, 19:08 PM
Protos Angelus: Black Prince is actually good now. Trades slow movement for high durability. Costs a lot. Same as the Tiger. Both heavy tanks needed such buffs.
02 Apr 2024, 18:33 PM
Lady Xenarra: In teamgames, SPGs/Whizzbangs will have wiped out static 88s.
02 Apr 2024, 18:07 PM
Katitof: with how slow BP is? It might be a threat in 1v1, but 2v2 onwards, 88 will be waiting
02 Apr 2024, 17:46 PM
Lady Xenarra: On*
02 Apr 2024, 16:58 PM
Lady Xenarra: Really? 440 armor BP? Can I say Axis in life support like a good meme?
02 Apr 2024, 16:58 PM
Katitof: behold, a holy globulus
02 Apr 2024, 13:59 PM
donofsandiego: I'll give your spheres a shake
01 Apr 2024, 17:22 PM
Katitof: vipper finally cracked password for admin backend and molded the page in his image
01 Apr 2024, 15:26 PM
mrgame2: The heck happened? We be shaking spheres?
01 Apr 2024, 08:48 AM
nigo: katitof > all
29 Mar 2024, 21:48 PM
Katitof: its all temp ones, think of it like driving penalty points, go long enough without infractions and it resets
29 Mar 2024, 19:03 PM
PatFenis: :S
29 Mar 2024, 16:47 PM
donofsandiego: You're both thinking of the wrong person
29 Mar 2024, 16:12 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah didn't they ban you already? Or am I thinking of someone else
29 Mar 2024, 15:55 PM
PatFenis: i thought you have been banned for long time by now.
29 Mar 2024, 15:49 PM
Katitof: its official guys, moderator of steam forums is one of skittles hair people, I've said sega had to lay off 240 people because of esg pandering and they banned me :snfPeter: no reason given, clown world indeed
29 Mar 2024, 08:26 AM
Willy Pete: no reason to hide it if relic doesnt care. sad way for coh2 to go
29 Mar 2024, 00:36 AM
GenMe: its back to back map hackers in coh 2 1v1 automatch now, yes ive checked the replays, they dont even hide it anymore
29 Mar 2024, 00:33 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Just as another aside, look at the Age of Empires IV news feed to find out just how tangential Relic really is to that game's maintenance and possibly development.
29 Mar 2024, 00:32 AM
GenMe: is the map hacking as bad in coh 3 as it in in coh 2? wondering if its worth moving over, I prefer the game coh 2 but the map hacking is just getting me down
29 Mar 2024, 00:30 AM
shinasukac: relic deserve it 。 one year only 2 battlegroup, few new map, bad balance
28 Mar 2024, 22:46 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Personally after reading takes from professional redditors. I am going to ignore all logic and reasoning and say COH3 is saved :)
28 Mar 2024, 22:44 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I only see one of those two scenarios playing out, and I don't think it's subtle which is the likelier option.
28 Mar 2024, 21:54 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Either they release one of the best games of all time that they've been saving in secret for this moment, or the studio gets further gutted and tasked on mobile game bullshit like the remnants of Ensemble Studios.
28 Mar 2024, 21:53 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Now Relic is owned by what looks like a mutual fund management firm and I expect that if they don't start turning a profit soon (which Company of Heroes won't) then one of two things will have to happen
28 Mar 2024, 21:52 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: SEGA was the only thing still keeping Relic afloat. They're at least an actual game publisher that has been in the strategy business for decades at this point, whatever their other potential failings.
28 Mar 2024, 21:51 PM
nigo: no, thanks
28 Mar 2024, 20:59 PM
Voxy: based on the population, coh2 has more potential of turning in profit imo
28 Mar 2024, 17:24 PM
Voxy: Now that Relic is no longer part of SEGA, will we ever get some updates to COH2? Map rotation, balance or even some battle passes? I hope they make more money off of coh2
28 Mar 2024, 17:23 PM
donofsandiego: *get results for shareholders first and foremost
28 Mar 2024, 16:21 PM
donofsandiego: Big companies like SEGA have an ultimate responsibility to get results for shareholders. That's why things like a store get put in before new content does.
28 Mar 2024, 16:19 PM
donofsandiego: Relic doesn't put out games for a captured audience on that level lmao. It's not like CA hasn't been putting out flops too. Anyways, time will tell if SEGA management was holding Relic back or if it was the only thing keeping a mediocre team alive.
28 Mar 2024, 16:18 PM
donofsandiego: Why the f*ck would they sell CA? Do you understand what level of whales CA taps into with Total Warhammer? Have you SEEN how much Warhammer minifigures can be sold for?
28 Mar 2024, 16:15 PM
OKSpitfire: Like i said, i don't know. No need to jump down my throat.
28 Mar 2024, 14:44 PM
OKSpitfire: There's no need to play pretend, Dirty. We both know why they are axing Relic, it doesn't change the fact that Relic *might* be better off as an independent, or with a new publisher entirely....
28 Mar 2024, 14:43 PM
nigo: Sega said it is selling Relic to a holding company to be newly established by the UK investment company Emona Capital LLP, but that further details weren’t being disclosed due to the request of the transferee
28 Mar 2024, 14:40 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Ill play pretend with you. It’s definitely not a bad thing to get fired. Because that’s essentially what happened when your publisher sells your studio.
28 Mar 2024, 14:39 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Sega before today owned both. Why axe Relic and not CA?
28 Mar 2024, 14:37 PM
OKSpitfire: All of which has nothing to do with Relic.... 'Clueless'
28 Mar 2024, 14:14 PM
OKSpitfire: Well no, they laid off a large number of people and cancelled some big project, apparently.
28 Mar 2024, 14:13 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: They didnt sell creative assembly did they? Seems relic was the only one Clueless.
28 Mar 2024, 14:07 PM
OKSpitfire: Or, as you say, it could also be the final nail in the coffin...
28 Mar 2024, 14:03 PM
OKSpitfire: We all know Relic hasn't exactly been killing it lately, but neither has Sega. No-longer being under their influence *might* just be a good thing.
28 Mar 2024, 14:03 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: People acting like Sega selling them is good. Why would a company sell someone making them money?? Relic was the dead weight 😭
28 Mar 2024, 13:51 PM
OKSpitfire: That British battlegroup though.
28 Mar 2024, 13:39 PM
donofsandiego: all I know is they're saying they'll commit to CoH 3, and I like the patch.
28 Mar 2024, 13:32 PM
donofsandiego: @OKSpitfire I prefer to think positively, but it certainly could end up badly without having Sega money to fall back on.
28 Mar 2024, 13:31 PM
donofsandiego: Much more open to the idea of supporting Relic directly than I am giving *any* money to sega lol.
28 Mar 2024, 13:29 PM
OKSpitfire: How are we spinning this?
28 Mar 2024, 13:26 PM
donofsandiego: Goes independent; Coral Viper release date drops to April 3rd from April 23rd; could this be indicative of the future?
28 Mar 2024, 13:26 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: BTW Sega sold Relic. Thats a good sign CLUELESS
28 Mar 2024, 13:13 PM
mrgame2: Coh is dead without generosity of sega
28 Mar 2024, 12:21 PM
Protos Angelus: thank Fuck SEGA no longer owns Relic
28 Mar 2024, 11:56 AM
OKSpitfire: Looks like they buffed the shit out of Brits just in time... :D
28 Mar 2024, 09:22 AM
DonnieChan: HAVE I SEE RIGHT ?!?!?!? THEY RELEASED ANOTHER COMMANDER WITH BOFORS AND 17POUNDER? BRIT CAMPFESST FOR THE 3RD TIM?!?!?!? JESUS CHRIST RELICC
28 Mar 2024, 09:15 AM
Smartie: Relic is now independent and not longer be part of SEGA
28 Mar 2024, 09:06 AM
Smartie: Dudes, Relic is independent now and not anymore owned by SEGA
28 Mar 2024, 09:01 AM
donofsandiego: true :megusta:
27 Mar 2024, 23:45 PM
Lady Xenarra: Ehh judging by how many BARs are in your typical USF game, each vehicle prob has one in the back somwhere :rofl:
27 Mar 2024, 20:45 PM
Lady Xenarra: @donofsandiego There's also a plunder mechanic with the UKF truck where the Axis player can steal resources if they destroy it. RISK vs reward
27 Mar 2024, 20:44 PM
donofsandiego: Doesn't... really... make too much sense... I guess they're melting down the vehicle wreck and turning it into scrap metal to make weapons out of lol
27 Mar 2024, 20:12 PM
donofsandiego: Also, turns out "plunder" is vehicle salvage but instead of fuel you get a weapon that is tailored to the plundering unit's role. Pretty neat I think.
27 Mar 2024, 20:11 PM
donofsandiego: I just watched and Operation Skorpion looks schnasty. Vehicles camo'd on the move? Disruption operation reducing unit sight? Goliaths deployed from a 250? Sounds like a badass commander.
27 Mar 2024, 20:10 PM
donofsandiego: @Lady Xenarra Did you watch the livestream? I didn't. I wonder what "plunder" does. From the icon it seems like DAK can upgrade with Allied weapons. But could it be something as crazy as a massively increased weapon drop rate? Ranger counterplay? Lol.
27 Mar 2024, 19:59 PM
Lady Xenarra: But what nasty stuff did DAK get in return.... B-)
27 Mar 2024, 18:44 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Looks like you got your wish with the Archer
27 Mar 2024, 18:44 PM
donofsandiego: I am going to start playing again when Coral Viper drops, damn it. Let's fucking go.
27 Mar 2024, 18:19 PM
donofsandiego: @Voxy when coh 2 gets another update (never)
27 Mar 2024, 18:18 PM
Voxy: how are we gonna deal with the known maphacker + drophacker pathannn and 善良的中国人在天安门?
27 Mar 2024, 18:01 PM
DonnieChan: coh2 copletely took me with its atmosphere. coh3 has less. imo the BÄÄH BÄÄH I WANNA MORE zoom out "fans" are to blame
26 Mar 2024, 10:53 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: The "hold up" is that there's a skeleton crew working on the game. The anniversary came and went with basically no plan for the future of the game beyond the next patch.
26 Mar 2024, 06:25 AM
Lady Xenarra: Good thing I took a break from COH3, or I'd be ranting about overpowered UKF (what a surprise!!!). Rangers still annihilating all opposition :lol:
26 Mar 2024, 00:54 AM
donofsandiego: Like idk an american air battlegroup that's way more focused around strictly air dropped paratroopers, and add one or two new units there. Keep SOME abilities from the other tree but mix them in idk
26 Mar 2024, 00:42 AM
donofsandiego: I don't know. I guess it's difficult when you have to do so much balancing and it's not a linear decision like in coh2, but why not release some more battlegroups that are a bit derivative but with at least SOME new content
26 Mar 2024, 00:40 AM
donofsandiego: I want to like coh 3 man but what on earth is the hold up on releasing new battlegroups. At this point I feel like I'm moving the goal posts on the devs, but I just have trouble finding the motivation to go back to the game with the same battlegroups as al
26 Mar 2024, 00:39 AM
donofsandiego: but, again, any of those people whose first reactions were to dismiss, I am still openly inviting them to DM me so I can politely converse with them.
25 Mar 2024, 21:58 PM
donofsandiego: @Willy Pete I get what you're saying, and I appreciate your opinion, but I'm not in the shoutbox to change minds. It's not within the scope of this board. I just wanted to drive the point home for anyone monitoring the situation closely.
25 Mar 2024, 21:55 PM
Willy Pete: RE hp being reverted was the least surprising change of all time
25 Mar 2024, 21:19 PM
Willy Pete: @Katitof the winrates dont help. but mostly from playing. and even just reading the notes when it first dropped, it felt like too much
25 Mar 2024, 21:17 PM
Willy Pete: is it occuring to you that your attitude about your opinion is more annoying to ppl than ur actual opinion?
25 Mar 2024, 21:06 PM
donofsandiego: once again, you're welcome to come to my DMs for some eye-opening, but I have a feeling that isn't what you want.
25 Mar 2024, 19:27 PM
donofsandiego: @OKSpitfire This conversation concerns only the people who I spoke with, and with respect to the site rules I'm not being specific. If you talked with me, then you know exactly what I'm talking about, and you can stop playing coy
25 Mar 2024, 19:24 PM
Farlon: Haven't played for a while, why was storm doc nerfed?
25 Mar 2024, 17:30 PM
OKSpitfire: It would still be completely inappropriate to this forum though.
25 Mar 2024, 17:18 PM
OKSpitfire: Well, that it is a fascinating strawman, Don. Sadly, you will need to be a lot more specific about the thing you claim to be right about in order for the conversation to go anywhere.
25 Mar 2024, 17:17 PM
donofsandiego: Because I don't think anyone can deny what's happening now. That's all I had to say.
25 Mar 2024, 15:59 PM
donofsandiego: I hope you learned that maybe you shouldn't hold such a strong stance on something you hadn't actually been that well informed about, and next time that you'll be more willing to hear from someone who doesn't share your beliefs.
25 Mar 2024, 15:58 PM
donofsandiego: I won't be specific, but I just wanted to say to the people who scoffed at me: I offered to provide evidence in DMs. Nobody took me up on that. Yet, the people mocking me were so sure of themselves
25 Mar 2024, 15:57 PM
Katitof: did you drew that conclusion from 55+% win rate across all 4 game modes?
25 Mar 2024, 09:15 AM
Willy Pete: might be safe to say the brits got overbuffed...

23 Mar 2024, 14:02 PM
donofsandiego: kek
23 Mar 2024, 11:58 AM
donofsandiego: I think that a site might be dead when it's more fun to resurrect old threads than it is to make new ones.

cammilo: engage deez

PatFenis: based.
20 Mar 2024, 07:07 AM
NigelBallsworth: It doesn't take much to engage someone in supportive conversation and/or direct them to a helpline in their area.
19 Mar 2024, 20:43 PM
NigelBallsworth: It might be, but we should take those things seriously, as actual cases of suicide have occurred where online gaming forums or lobbies were the only place the individual reached out for help.
19 Mar 2024, 20:43 PM
cammilo: Sounds pretty trollus if you ask me
19 Mar 2024, 06:34 AM
cammilo: there's someone threating to shoot himself in the in game lobby
19 Mar 2024, 06:34 AM
DonnieChan: you forgot guys like a.schwarzenschnitzel, pencilbatration and basedsecretary
18 Mar 2024, 23:44 PM
cammilo: So i am wondering, what is the current stance of "th3 c0mmunitI" I miss the 0ld r3t4rds like farton and the 0ther rager called "shadowada". Als0 a sxbn0rmal that you don't get to apprecieate any more t3se fortnite-pornmakers-tu8rnedstreamers era of r3tr4d
18 Mar 2024, 21:13 PM
cammilo: Is this actually the game the community wants? the player base is dissapearing. So, wtf is it gonna be, or should we "4sk the fxck!ng g4y r3t4rds at l3lic wtf do they think about it, and ab0ut $S"
18 Mar 2024, 21:10 PM
cammilo: Why si the coh2 chat room in-search room so absent?
18 Mar 2024, 21:07 PM
Willy Pete: coh3s content problem is bigger than any issue coh2 ever had imo. and thats hard to do lol
18 Mar 2024, 18:11 PM
Willy Pete: and coh3 had its own "expansion" already. generated a fraction of the hype. sure it was smaller, but thats part of the point
18 Mar 2024, 18:09 PM
Willy Pete: yup it was def the month of wfa. unfortunately that dosnt mean much, the months before dont compare well either
18 Mar 2024, 18:07 PM
aerafield: Make no mistake, I also think CoH2 is/was the better game 1 year after launch, but June 2014 was when the big Western Front Armies DLC dropped. Also, CoH1 was dead as fck after the THQ shutdown so there was no predecessor to compete with
18 Mar 2024, 17:39 PM
Willy Pete: pretty hard to exaggerate just how bad that is. coh3s numbers SHOULD be higher. it had the benefit of coh2 already growing the community
18 Mar 2024, 15:34 PM
Willy Pete: coh2 had a 4000 player average in june 2014, with a peak of 13,000 players. coh3 has a 1800 player average in feb 2024, with a peak of 3000
18 Mar 2024, 15:33 PM
Willy Pete: @Katitof then let's forget about "now". compare the numbers of both games 1 year after release
18 Mar 2024, 15:32 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Ive played COH2 since 2013. Me alone discredits your entire blurp. People are so eager to spread misinformation it’s crazy.
18 Mar 2024, 13:54 PM
Katitof: Willy Pete it causes people who otherwise would not bother with it try it out and always some of them stick, that's how F2P games work and live, people playing coh2 now are not the same who played it 10 years ago
18 Mar 2024, 07:50 AM
Willy Pete: No worries dawg
17 Mar 2024, 23:41 PM
OKSpitfire: @Willy Pete Ah! I ignored the context. My bad.
17 Mar 2024, 16:03 PM
Willy Pete: *game being free
17 Mar 2024, 15:29 PM
Willy Pete: Not comparing coh2 now to coh3 now. And it's totally absurd to say that the same being free is the reason ppl are STILL playing coh2 more.
17 Mar 2024, 15:27 PM
Willy Pete: @OKSpitfire you're missing most of the context there. was responding to kat saying everyone who moved on was going to do so anyway. made the point that ppl stuck around thru coh2s many issues
17 Mar 2024, 15:27 PM
OKSpitfire: Because they took time and bothered to fix it. They are ostensibly doing the same thing again, just very, very, very slowly. lol.
17 Mar 2024, 15:17 PM
OKSpitfire: @Willy Pete why even make that comparison though? As aerafield says, that game has had much more time to fix all of its launch problems before then being given away for free... of course its reputation is good now.
17 Mar 2024, 15:15 PM
aerafield: I think nobody is denying that CoH2 is a very good & polished game after 8 years of patch support
17 Mar 2024, 13:34 PM
Willy Pete: Coh3 just isn't that good, and it's still incomplete...
17 Mar 2024, 12:49 PM
Willy Pete: At best that would explain sudden surges in players
17 Mar 2024, 12:48 PM
Willy Pete: @Katitof that's total nonsense. A game being free doesn't cause people to play it consistently up to 10 years later. And it sure doesn't cause it to still have more players than the new sequel...
17 Mar 2024, 12:47 PM
PatFenis: I see, just have to follow the drag-marks on the floor to find you irl then :thumbsup:
16 Mar 2024, 10:30 AM
donofsandiego: Dare I say it? Are we? Are we really "so back"?
16 Mar 2024, 09:41 AM
Katitof: nah, must be something else, RL friends call me 3-legged joe, and its not because I was born around Chernobyl time :romeoMug:
16 Mar 2024, 09:31 AM
PatFenis: ngl. Katitof, that last post in Donnies thread screams small penis, mr 2 meter man :blush:
16 Mar 2024, 09:12 AM
Katitof: Willy Pete CoH2 was given out for free, multiple times. If it wasn't, it would have at most half of the concurrency it did over last years.
16 Mar 2024, 08:37 AM
Willy Pete: @Katitof that makes zero sense at all, ppl stuck around coh2 for a long time even tho it had plenty of issues...
16 Mar 2024, 02:29 AM
Lady Xenarra: Come on Relic, give us details on the new BGs....
15 Mar 2024, 21:18 PM
Katitof: Lets be honest here, the ones who moved on would never stick anyway, what's the aletrnative? Men of war 2? LOL
15 Mar 2024, 08:38 AM
OKSpitfire: Nice gesture
15 Mar 2024, 08:29 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Listening to the community. After most of it has already moved on.
14 Mar 2024, 23:03 PM
Protos Angelus: Relic listening to the community. Wow. Honestly, some good news for a change
14 Mar 2024, 21:05 PM
aerafield: surely posting in the shoutbox is gonna do anything when Relic doesn't even ban people who got reported through the official Email channels anymore :foreveralone:
14 Mar 2024, 14:43 PM
GoforGiantsV3: RELIC ban player 'gotophe' permanently please he is totally imbecile mannerless Scumbag
14 Mar 2024, 12:15 PM
yoink15: tell him to do another season of SNF
11 Mar 2024, 19:30 PM
yoink15: where is amipolitzeifunk
11 Mar 2024, 19:28 PM
aerafield: You're welcome
06 Mar 2024, 23:52 PM
mmp: Thanks again m8! I appreciate the help
06 Mar 2024, 23:50 PM
aerafield: should be 3 + 3
06 Mar 2024, 23:43 PM
mmp: I think its 3 kar98's and 3 mp40's or is it 4 and 2
06 Mar 2024, 23:24 PM
mmp: Great Thank you!!!
06 Mar 2024, 23:23 PM
aerafield: It's 100% neither the pio nor the crew mp40 though
06 Mar 2024, 23:23 PM
aerafield: I'm 80% sure they use the guastatori version, and the "mp40_panzergrenadier_ger" is Singleplayer-only
06 Mar 2024, 23:15 PM
mmp: is it mp 40 crew, or mp 40 Panzergrenadier, mp 40 Guastatori, or mp 40 Pioneer? or am I way off in my search?
06 Mar 2024, 21:26 PM
mmp: I know this is a dumb question. I should know but I can't find anything on it. here it goes. when I look on the dps calculator I am looking at which mp 40's are used in the assualt upgrade.
06 Mar 2024, 21:20 PM
donofsandiego: Update on my map coming soonish
06 Mar 2024, 11:30 AM
Osinyagov: It’s kinda sad that it’s dead
06 Mar 2024, 09:57 AM
Katitof: steam kappa
05 Mar 2024, 22:10 PM
aerafield: Name one 10+ years old gaming forum website that isn't dead
05 Mar 2024, 17:20 PM
mrgame2: there is a big coh3 tourny ongoing and coh2org is dead. it is jover
05 Mar 2024, 17:10 PM
aerafield: Aaaaand it's gone
05 Mar 2024, 14:11 PM
Katitof: well, its coh2.org and coh2 is kind of dead to all the people who actually care to engage with community
05 Mar 2024, 10:34 AM
aerafield: The fact that a DAK trending from 2016 popped up again in the trendings because this site is inactive is just golden. Please everybody, do NOT vote on the trending so it stays there forever :D
04 Mar 2024, 22:59 PM
donofsandiego: Thanks @Nickbn. I'm not the only one posting like hell in the shoutbox though :D
03 Mar 2024, 20:33 PM
Nickbn: I love how you are valliantly trying to keep the site alive @donofsandiego . We should have moar people like u
03 Mar 2024, 20:26 PM
donofsandiego: anyways, I have a quote for y'all: "you either live long enough to become a good mapper, or you die making bridge maps"
03 Mar 2024, 19:53 PM
donofsandiego: The support weapons in this game seem designed to encourage blobbing kek
03 Mar 2024, 19:53 PM
donofsandiego: Especially in lower levels. Every time I build an MG it just gets swarmed by a shitton of enemy units, and then when I start spamming out infantry units of my own, I have way better results.
03 Mar 2024, 19:52 PM
donofsandiego: Combined arms is fucking hard in CoH 3
03 Mar 2024, 19:51 PM
DonnieChan: will there be one day when people will understand to use combined arms instead of counterbalance single units?
03 Mar 2024, 19:50 PM
NigelBallsworth: lol oh my god do I HATE guastatori. I have literally lost games due to diving in on them to exterminate them at all cost
03 Mar 2024, 16:27 PM
Lady Xenarra: The only Axis inf that can beat them 1-1 is....Guastatori.
03 Mar 2024, 15:17 PM
Lady Xenarra: @donofsandiego Oh they are really that good. Cover-to-cover makes them walk through MGs too. Haven’t checked if they fixed ISC make making the reinforcement cheaper or not.
03 Mar 2024, 15:16 PM
donofsandiego: Rangers feel absurdly good. But then, I mostly play PvE, so it's probably the AI being bad.
02 Mar 2024, 19:19 PM
mrgame2: rangers TTK is mad good, they are like coh2 PGren but way more better. Axis sucks after 1.51
01 Mar 2024, 18:44 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: TTK is a the main issue. CQC units, elites reign supreme. But low TTK is BAD. So this gameplay remains :)
01 Mar 2024, 17:18 PM
Lady Xenarra: Supremely excellent Italian grills.
01 Mar 2024, 16:09 PM
OKSpitfire: In my defense that tank was made of paper before the buff and I was still trying it, like the idiot that I am.
01 Mar 2024, 14:46 PM
OKSpitfire: Guilty! :D
01 Mar 2024, 14:45 PM
aerafield: Elites are performing fine across the board, but god pls do something about the other squads
01 Mar 2024, 14:45 PM
aerafield: I swear when are they finally gonna make anti-personnel infantry relevant in this game. And not just super few units like Rangers and Guastatori
01 Mar 2024, 14:39 PM
aerafield: Oh yeah this new strat Ive seen of blobbing 3 PJs and spamming Flammpanzer and Kommandopanzer call-ins sure looked fun & engaging :foreveralone:
01 Mar 2024, 14:37 PM
OKSpitfire: I like the Flammpanzer III buff. I was hoping its damage might get a slight buff too with maybe a cost increase, but at least it can actually perform its role now.
01 Mar 2024, 12:37 PM
Katitof: obviously it is not going to beat PJ or shrecks, but regular inf or AI elites don't exactly do much here, its fragile, but its a dps beast, L6 AI power was just transferred on humber
01 Mar 2024, 11:05 AM
aerafield: @Katitof Humber still dies to a sneeze, how can you even remotely compare it to an 8Rad which is tanker than allied mediums with double HP upgrade and smoke
29 Feb 2024, 23:18 PM
Willy Pete: i think it was too much in context of the rest of the patch. nerfed daks early game a ton, and brits got tons of other buffs
29 Feb 2024, 22:23 PM
Katitof: on paper humber buffs are actually not that horrifying, the thing kills a model in less than single burst at vet0 in the open, slightly longer when in cover
29 Feb 2024, 21:43 PM
Willy Pete: @Katitof yea on paper the humber buffs looked too heavy to me. havent gotten to see it in action yet
29 Feb 2024, 21:01 PM
GiaA: but that might just be me being paranoid
29 Feb 2024, 20:16 PM
GiaA: + i feel like fps has gotten worse
29 Feb 2024, 20:16 PM
GiaA: has anyone had connection lags with the patch
29 Feb 2024, 20:11 PM
Katitof: also new humbers feels like release 8-rad, except arrives 50% faster and at half the cost
29 Feb 2024, 18:58 PM
Katitof: 250 hurts much more, L6 was meta, but it was not the only option
29 Feb 2024, 17:17 PM
Willy Pete: I agree. The L640 nerf is gonna hurt DAK players a lot:D
29 Feb 2024, 14:47 PM
Lady Xenarra: Several times a year I have this convo with ppl that using the most OP stuff actually worsens your skill as you become dependent upon it as a crutch.
29 Feb 2024, 11:40 AM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Alas that spamming Rangers does not equate to ez wins any more hmm?
29 Feb 2024, 11:39 AM
SkysTheLimit: Speaking of which, how the hell did the nebelwerfer dodge changes? Aside from fixing an oversight
28 Feb 2024, 22:22 PM
SkysTheLimit: That seems like a very reasonable change... Regardless of what else they missed
28 Feb 2024, 22:21 PM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra maybe because one faction had between 52 and 55% winrate in teamgames while the other has 47-49% :snfPeter:
28 Feb 2024, 21:31 PM
Katitof: It seems to have a cooldown before it can be reapplied
28 Feb 2024, 19:55 PM
Katitof: +15% rec acc debuff on target
28 Feb 2024, 19:54 PM
mrgame2: what is DAK vet1 bike do? recon?
28 Feb 2024, 18:23 PM
Lady Xenarra: Not sure why the bike is getting nerfed whilst double jeep exists
28 Feb 2024, 13:18 PM
Katitof: DAK bike was stealth nerfed, vet1 was gutted
28 Feb 2024, 11:22 AM
OKSpitfire: Another small step in the right direction. I like the call-in change as well.
28 Feb 2024, 10:44 AM
Willy Pete: Like the 25% penalty means nebel will do 60dmg instead of 80 to a structure. Dont think thats a big deal. These units already spank emplacement teams anyway, dont need them easily deleting the weapon too
28 Feb 2024, 03:46 AM
Willy Pete: I think its fine. Prob just cuz of their dmg values to begin with
28 Feb 2024, 03:45 AM
donofsandiego: As a teamgame player I highly appreciate the addition of a way to build the Ez8 and Panthers from the tech structures. That's a good change imo.
28 Feb 2024, 01:05 AM
donofsandiego: No, Relic, listen, I appreciate the commitment to consistency, but you did it the wrong way around; REMOVE THE DAMAGE PENALTY TO DEFENSIVE STRUCTURES FROM ALL ARTILLERY.
28 Feb 2024, 01:01 AM
donofsandiego: Can anyone explain to me why ARTILLERY UNITS have a penalty against DEFENSIVE STRUCTURES in the first place??
28 Feb 2024, 01:00 AM
donofsandiego: " This adjusts the direct damage caused by the Nebelwerfer rockets on defensive structures, bringing them in-line with other artillery units that also have this penalty. "
28 Feb 2024, 00:59 AM
donofsandiego: Nebelwerfer 42 Rocket Launcher - Now has a 25% damage penalty against bunkers and emplacements
28 Feb 2024, 00:59 AM
aerafield: @GiaA what makes it even worse imo is how TTK is all over the place. Bolt action rifles have horrible dps, meanwhile pretty much all the vehicles just nuke squads
28 Feb 2024, 00:50 AM
GiaA: its funny because the awful gun sounds kinda fit the lack of damage output lol
27 Feb 2024, 20:34 PM
GiaA: rifles vs the paid doctrine wehrmacht troops has to be the single most boring infantry matchup in coh history
27 Feb 2024, 20:33 PM
GiaA: honestly as long as they dont fix TTK its gonna be a snoozefest
27 Feb 2024, 20:32 PM
Protos Angelus: I didn't mean gameplay as in balance gameplay (ranges, TTK, etc) but the features and the overall feel. Everything you said @aerafield is true. But it can be fixed with a bit more content and balance rework (eg. tanks have longer ranges etc)
27 Feb 2024, 17:54 PM
donofsandiego: dawn of war coh crossover when?
27 Feb 2024, 04:53 AM
aerafield: Ok I think the "better gameplay" is very debatable. Loingrange infantry fights take forever, way too much light & medium tank spam going on, no real heavy tank gameplay. And that SUCKS in teamgames
26 Feb 2024, 20:00 PM
Protos Angelus: It's well optimized. So it runs really well. Which is always a big plus for any game. Balance, content, graphics and sounds can all be added/reworked after the release. But optimization is seldom vastly improved after release
26 Feb 2024, 19:14 PM
Protos Angelus: CoH 3 has a lot of potential. It's miles above CoH2 in terms of graphics and gameplay. However, the sounds need a great rework. More content. Reworked tanks a bit (longer ranges, etc). Will see how CoH3 pans out in a year or two.
26 Feb 2024, 19:13 PM
OKSpitfire: Lots of different theories get floated on here, the most likely one is a combination of management incompetence, budget constraints and the game being forced out the door at least a year too early.
26 Feb 2024, 13:41 PM
aerafield: @oakdk so what you're saying is the game would've been a hit if they used the dogshit engine from CoH2 that crashes all the time and can't run a match above 30 average fps after 25+ minutes in 2023/24?
26 Feb 2024, 13:03 PM
oakdk: coh3 would have been a hit, if they just used cod formular. Take what works from coh2. Tweak it make small changes and you have a hit
26 Feb 2024, 12:09 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: But yeah they have no other move. Sega's former strategy golden goose just had the rug yanked out from under them and a major project cancelled, and Relic has never had even half the profitability of Creative Assembly.
26 Feb 2024, 03:10 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Realistically I can see Relic going bankrupt and the necessary staff folded into World's Edge to continue work on Age of Empires IV.
26 Feb 2024, 03:09 AM
SkysTheLimit: Aoe4 is good, but it's also funded by Microsoft. Coh3 doesn't have that luxury
24 Feb 2024, 14:18 PM
OKSpitfire: haha
24 Feb 2024, 12:21 PM
KoRneY: I mean... Bioware still exists somehow 😂
24 Feb 2024, 11:58 AM
donofsandiego: mfw The Outfit 2 gets released
24 Feb 2024, 05:57 AM
donofsandiego: Well that's a bit much. AoE 4 is fine
24 Feb 2024, 05:56 AM
donofsandiego: In my opinion, the answer is go bankrupt lmao. A new IP? A spinoff? Would they have any good will left over?
24 Feb 2024, 05:54 AM
donofsandiego: Let's be real here: what else does Relic have going for it? If they do pull another DoW 3, what would the next move even be?
24 Feb 2024, 05:52 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Keep chasing that sunk cost fallacy.
23 Feb 2024, 06:56 AM
KoRneY: Imagine if this guy bitching for a year had paid a nickel
23 Feb 2024, 06:11 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: "No roadmap for the year yet" means "no roadmap for the year ever".
23 Feb 2024, 05:23 AM
DonnieChan: @Rosbone "fans" are a big problem. E.g. for ages theyve been crying for "muh more ZOOM OUT" and now they got it, which makes the action far less immersive
22 Feb 2024, 22:05 PM
SkysTheLimit: If Relic had a nickel for every time Rosbone "left" .org they could've given coh3 away for free
22 Feb 2024, 20:31 PM
Rosbone: Okay, this game is officially dead. Peace. Im outta here <applause>
22 Feb 2024, 19:47 PM
Rosbone: I literally feel like crying for the Relicans I see on stream trying to pretend the new stuff is cool when they know it should have been done 4 years ago but wasnt. And only they know why but cant say. Its heart breaking.
22 Feb 2024, 19:47 PM
Rosbone: Oh and campaign is still bugged and people cant complete it.
22 Feb 2024, 19:44 PM
Rosbone: Put out unfinished game, put out store first, missing key items a year later, punish people for leaving a game. Whats next? Electrodes that connect to your PC and shock your nipples as you play?
22 Feb 2024, 19:44 PM
Rosbone: Relic logic: Start Discord.. listen to the dumbest people we have on our Discord. Enact rules catering to these morons wishes. :snfQuinn:
22 Feb 2024, 19:27 PM
donofsandiego: Lmfao. That works.
21 Feb 2024, 21:39 PM
Rosbone: I was thinking PalWorld Express and Hell Divers Express :snfPeter:
21 Feb 2024, 20:08 PM
donofsandiego: Despite my complaints its actually pretty easy to host a fully custom game in CoH3. Mostly as a result of the fact that at any time there are 4-5 lobbies open at the maximum. :D:(
21 Feb 2024, 20:03 PM
donofsandiego: Blueball Express, Pokeball Express, Basketball Express, fuck it
21 Feb 2024, 20:00 PM
donofsandiego: @Rosbone definitely, just make the map name end with express so they recognize it as a map they want to play.
21 Feb 2024, 19:59 PM
Rosbone: It has come to that. @aerafield is being nice to me. Now I am genuinely concerned about Coh3s future :romeoHairDay:
21 Feb 2024, 18:04 PM
aerafield: Would love another Road to Arnheim though <444>3
21 Feb 2024, 15:32 PM
aerafield: Imagine Whiteball Express but with CoH3's lategame that mainly consists of medium tank spam :snfPeter:
21 Feb 2024, 15:31 PM
Rosbone: So if I make all the maps, then your friends will play all of the maps. That is what I am hearing :snfPeter:
21 Feb 2024, 12:18 PM
donofsandiego: I'm in a discord with people with thousands of hours who play CoH and absolutely REFUSE to play ANY custom map. Somehow they can play their 300th game on whateverthefuckcolor Express and still just foam at the mouth with entertainment
21 Feb 2024, 09:49 AM
donofsandiego: and I'm not talking about bridge map #230,333,482; I'm talking about maps with serious effort obviously put into them, that just aren't official? I can't comprehend it.
21 Feb 2024, 09:46 AM
donofsandiego: what is it about the CoH series that attracts a majority of players who would rather chew their own legs off and eat them than try a custom map or gamemode?
21 Feb 2024, 09:45 AM
donofsandiego: I'm going to get political:
21 Feb 2024, 09:44 AM
Rosbone: Coh3 got Don out here Edging. :megusta:
21 Feb 2024, 07:21 AM
donofsandiego: deep breaths deep breaths. do not talk about politics :crazy:
20 Feb 2024, 23:55 PM
donofsandiego: like the tank wreck is made out of paper mache or wax
20 Feb 2024, 23:18 PM
donofsandiego: it feels like doo doo yeah
20 Feb 2024, 23:18 PM
Rosbone: Does anyone care about heavy objects in Coh3 disappearing if a few rile shots hit them? Like a tank is vaporized by a few 30 cal hits?
20 Feb 2024, 20:37 PM
donofsandiego: ÷]
20 Feb 2024, 18:21 PM
Katukov: @Vipper come back...
19 Feb 2024, 17:36 PM
Katitof: a good Samaritan?
18 Feb 2024, 16:59 PM
Reverb: again who do this
18 Feb 2024, 15:13 PM
DonnieChan: btw. what happened to A.Schwarzenschnitzel, he was an active forum User
18 Feb 2024, 09:46 AM
Reverb: if you plan demo in smoke it not show for other players :banned:
18 Feb 2024, 01:51 AM
aerafield: LMFAO
18 Feb 2024, 01:30 AM
donofsandiego: 4v4 automatch makes you wonder if a shipping crate full of computers washed ashore an undiscovered island where a community of (once thought to be extinct) homo neanderthalensis live
18 Feb 2024, 01:10 AM
aerafield: Wait until you try 3v3 or 4v4 automatch
15 Feb 2024, 20:16 PM
sluzbenik: The automatch 2v2 tards are infuriating. Except at the high level, where everyone just sits in cover and picks at each other, there is back and forth. All these tards just quit as soon as they lose a point. Sure, quit if you lose 3 units, but otherwise....
15 Feb 2024, 17:50 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: So there really is no direction, it seems. I'd love to be proven wrong at some point but I just don't see anything more than marginal improvements or untimely death in the game's future.
14 Feb 2024, 17:38 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: So the game itself needs to be stripped-down and focused on the immediate, moment-to-moment campaign experience. But their live service ambitions thwarted that at release, and the single-player component is now vestigial.
14 Feb 2024, 17:37 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: They really need to pick a lane. Creating an RTS for the single-player community only works as a "fire-and-forget" strategy - these players don't care too much about the game post-campaign and won't buy DLCs like the one so far.
14 Feb 2024, 17:36 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: The problem with that is it's a losing strategy. At best they can hope that relying on a select few, "vetted" content creators will placate a small fraction of the community they already have. It'll do nothing for the wider world beyond this fandom.
14 Feb 2024, 17:34 PM
Hannibal: Also, they appear to push towards more community engagement. Or at least with the "VIPs"
14 Feb 2024, 16:23 PM
Hannibal: The one year announcement is okay. I am actually much more intrigued that they did not make the community maps a larger point. Either it was purely a Relic-issue or they sorted out their legal concerns
14 Feb 2024, 16:22 PM
OKSpitfire: Interesting!
14 Feb 2024, 15:50 PM
aerafield: And before someone says "most of the MP crowd plays custom games instead of automatch", that's just a blatant lie
14 Feb 2024, 15:26 PM
aerafield: 40% of all people who own Coh2 played at least 1 campaign mission, now compare this to the amount of people who played 3+ automatch games: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1175136012553437185/1175254731535417425/Screenshot_20231118-030031_Steam.jpg
14 Feb 2024, 15:24 PM
aerafield: And taking a look at the global coh2 steam achievement stats just seems to prove it hardcore: 1) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1175136012553437185/1175254731266990130/Screenshot_20231118-030015_Steam.jpg
14 Feb 2024, 15:23 PM
aerafield: And I know this is hard to accept for some hardcore MP fanatics (which is where I belong too), but it's simply a fact of the RTS genre. I'd assume roughly 75% of the playerbase is SP-only
14 Feb 2024, 15:19 PM
aerafield: yes, Singleplayer crowd is where most of the money is coming from, not MP
14 Feb 2024, 15:15 PM
OKSpitfire: Though I know that doing this would be precisely the opposite of appealing to the largest player base, and thus $
14 Feb 2024, 14:57 PM
OKSpitfire: Imagine if they just ditched the crap singleplay player campaign from the start and focused only on multiplayer, the campaign was pretty low quality in the previous game too, until that dlc came out later on.
14 Feb 2024, 14:56 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I find it hilarious that they came out strong promoting their Total War campaign map and then patched it so that it basically plays itself for most encounters.
14 Feb 2024, 14:15 PM
Rosbone: I just want it to be decent for the largest player base. Casuals.
14 Feb 2024, 07:36 AM
Rosbone: Since I dont play, I dont have any play/balance/TTK wishes. Sound updates would be awesome.
14 Feb 2024, 07:22 AM
Rosbone: My wish: Kill counts, doesnt exit the menu in skirmish games, remembers setup from skirmish, Accurate kill tracking in results UI, fix the campaign (still many complaints), stops sucking ...
14 Feb 2024, 07:20 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: They might get A_E and Tightrope to announce some kind of actual expansion. Plausible deniability if it comes from sub-official channels. Just like Dawn of War III.
14 Feb 2024, 05:52 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Theyre adding maps, and slight balance changes. Its not a big patch. There are no new BGs or new content. Besides 5 multiplayer maps. Spread across 4 game modes. Gameplay will not change. Maybe the meta will. Nothing about audio, pathfinding, or surrender
14 Feb 2024, 04:23 AM
Rosbone: This patch is the most important so far. They finally showed progress in Dec 4 patch. Feb 27 shows the future. Needs to be big to foster hope, after 3 months of radio silence.
14 Feb 2024, 03:38 AM
Rosbone: New post from Relic is: "Once again I am asking for your help (Bernie meme). Please play our game so we dont get shut down challenge!."
14 Feb 2024, 03:13 AM
Rosbone: For how many years did relic pretend to care while getting the community to do the work? Now people are surprised that they dont care :lolol:
14 Feb 2024, 03:12 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Only thing to do in this situation, according to the people in charge, is stuff your pockets, burn it all down and jealously hoard whatever might remain afterwards.
14 Feb 2024, 03:01 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: They won't - not in the corporate playbook
14 Feb 2024, 03:00 AM
donofsandiego: All I ask is that Relic release the modding tools before they abandon ship. Really, that's all I hope for at this point.
14 Feb 2024, 02:51 AM
donofsandiego: These more recent updates have felt less like a trickle and more like pockets of gas given up by a decaying corpse.
14 Feb 2024, 02:49 AM

Katitof: separate team most likely, while I'm not betting my pants on it, its not like Relic has 500 employees and we have no access to credits of both games
11 Feb 2024, 10:28 AM
Rosbone: The X factor could be AoE4. How much did the Coh3 team do on AoE4 that pulled them from Coh3. Something made them miss the mark hard. The last patch finally looked like they were actually working on Coh3. So maybe good stuff to come.
11 Feb 2024, 03:41 AM
Rosbone: The more I looked at Coh3, the less I felt it was management. I think they had a plan and just failed to execute it. They had some good ideas that never got finished/started.
11 Feb 2024, 03:38 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Corporations in general celebrate mediocrity as all they want from you, as a manager/executive, is predictability. We're seeing the knock-on effects in so many areas of society of a celebration of mediocrity.
11 Feb 2024, 00:19 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: I don't necessarily blame the programmers, though I know it's their fault in some capacity. I blame the system they operate in. The talented people are not the ones running the show.
11 Feb 2024, 00:18 AM
Rosbone: I wonder if the real issue with Coh3 is the gen of people that is coding now. I have yet to find an app written in the last 5 years that wasnt completely broken trash.
10 Feb 2024, 23:56 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Relic did neither, and yeah this game isn't Dawn of War III exactly, but it's awfully close.
09 Feb 2024, 18:32 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: When you make a successful game (or whatever, insert creative product here) you have two options to follow up - double down on what made it successful and flesh out the "wrapping" or try to swing for the fences again with something bold.
09 Feb 2024, 18:31 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: From a design perspective it makes absolutely no sense to me, partly because there was no artistic vision that trumped community demands. It is a mere imitation - nothing innovative, almost everything drab and lifeless.
09 Feb 2024, 18:29 PM
OKSpitfire: Not sure why I felt the need to essentially make the same point twice there, thought it had gotten lost. Apologies.
09 Feb 2024, 15:28 PM
OKSpitfire: Its as if they just didn't have the budget to finish it properly. The sound is probably the most disappointing aspect for me too.
09 Feb 2024, 15:24 PM
OKSpitfire: It's just very unfinished and being fixed at a snails pace. The quality of the sound is probably the biggest let down for me.
09 Feb 2024, 15:21 PM
OKSpitfire: True, they didn't add a bunch of new things and ruin the formula this time round.
09 Feb 2024, 15:19 PM
aerafield: but from a general design POV it's not a bad game at all and pretty much what most of the community asked for
09 Feb 2024, 13:18 PM
aerafield: hmm not sure what you mean, CoH3 is 75% CoH1 and 25% CoH2 but with inferior audio and disappointing lategame unit roster
09 Feb 2024, 13:17 PM
OKSpitfire: Sounds awfully familiar, doesn't it! :D
09 Feb 2024, 12:21 PM
OKSpitfire: Makes you wonder: Why? All they needed to do was give people more of the same thing, people loved the DoW games, and they still managed to fuck it up.
09 Feb 2024, 12:14 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah DoW3 was a watered down half moba half RTS abomination. Would love to know how quickly the person who inserted the terrible moba ideas got fired.
09 Feb 2024, 12:10 PM
aerafield: Regarding sales & playernumbers, CoH3 is doing way better than DoW3 though
09 Feb 2024, 11:06 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Turns out that they just decided to nuke the whole thing from orbit instead. Which is imminent, I think, for this game.
09 Feb 2024, 08:02 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: A_E can say literally anything and it won't matter until it comes from official channels. There were people who toured Relic's studio who were saying "big things are coming" for a Dawn of War III expansion because Relic hasd started work on Necron stuff

08 Feb 2024, 17:00 PM
Willy Pete: What aera said, they said after Dec update their next thing would be coh3 anniversary. But you'd think they have teased something about it by now
08 Feb 2024, 16:52 PM
OKSpitfire: I might have heard someone, possibly on here, say that they heard there would be some sort of announcement in late Feb? Or am I completely making that up?
08 Feb 2024, 16:41 PM
aerafield: They said the next update is "close to the 1 year anniversary", which would be in 2 weeks. But yes, if nothing big happens in the next 1-2 months then I think it's kinda over
08 Feb 2024, 16:40 PM

PatFenis: I mean I really stoped caring for coh3 currently, looked up this morning the forum and its weired that there is nothing since december in terms of official news.
08 Feb 2024, 15:15 PM
Rosbone: On a more important note, How many people care Relic has gone silent from December to the anniversary? I already said I would stream 1-2 a week until player counts are above 10k. But I am crazy, we have established that.
08 Feb 2024, 12:03 PM
Rosbone: Its actually an intelligence test. Anyone who doesnt answer "Other: Go f*ck yourself you trash peddling scumbags." is a moron.
08 Feb 2024, 11:54 AM
Rosbone: The irony is that Relic even asks the question. The concept is to not stereotype someone. But the question itself aims to stereotype the people answering it. "From our data, trans people love to play Coh3." Demographics are stereotypes. :lolol:

02 Feb 2024, 20:30 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I agree that Broken Arrow (and its spiritual predecessor Wargame) are a bit too zoomed-out to be "exciting" in the same way Company of Heroes is
02 Feb 2024, 20:29 PM
Rosbone: I watched a stream for a few seconds and it was way too zoomed out for me. Coh has it just right for my tastes. I like to see the action of units, not icons moving around. But I see people on steam complain Coh3 is too zoomed in, so I am in the minority.
02 Feb 2024, 20:14 PM

donofsandiego: I'm so terribly sorry I took the spotlight away from the speeding CoH news cycle. I sincerely hope you will all be able to catch up with any news that you may have missed as a result of my little outburst.
23 Jan 2024, 17:13 PM
Rosbone: @OKSpitfire I live in the US. We no longer have a valid news source. I need to get info from Europeans. Points to DF and Katitof :thumbsup:
23 Jan 2024, 17:10 PM
OKSpitfire: Can't you go and be a performative little activist somewhere else?
23 Jan 2024, 16:39 PM
OKSpitfire: Who is this for, Don? Do you honestly not think we dont hear enough about horrific events like this in our real lives?
23 Jan 2024, 16:39 PM
donofsandiego: Hey man, I don't write the casualty statistics. It's enough to make anyone ask questions :nahnah:
23 Jan 2024, 15:37 PM
donofsandiego: @Katitof Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
23 Jan 2024, 15:35 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: People think theres going to be a 2024 roadmap Clueless
23 Jan 2024, 15:33 PM
Katitof: why would you need a fruit, when you already are a fruitcake yourself? :snfBarton:
23 Jan 2024, 11:46 AM
PatFenis: Holy Stammtischgelaber, talking about coh is still not taking much traction huh?
23 Jan 2024, 06:56 AM
donofsandiego: I'd volunteer for that as long as I got to keep the fruit (i am hungry)
22 Jan 2024, 22:23 PM
Rosbone: Dear Relic: Pleae come out with a new road map the natives are getting restless.
22 Jan 2024, 21:03 PM
Rosbone: Or maybe just yell the wrong pronouns at them for a while. Too harsh? :unsure:
22 Jan 2024, 20:58 PM
Rosbone: Hyperbole comedy of course. But I wouldnt mind seeing them pelted with oranges and grapfruits while naked in a corner fending off the shots with only their hands. I would go that far :snfQuinn:.
22 Jan 2024, 20:56 PM
Rosbone: @donofsandiego There are exceptions. Like the people who make documentaries that are nothing but 20 minutes of shaky cam morons babling about themselves and not the topic. Beheaded on live TV is too good for these people. :rolleyes:
22 Jan 2024, 20:53 PM
donofsandiego: The only time you should be killed is if you don't support your teammate getting 2v1ed on the fuel point.
22 Jan 2024, 20:35 PM
Rosbone: The great irony of the human condition. No one should ever be killed for any reason, except those who kill. They should be killed. But then we are the killer. #MobiusKill
22 Jan 2024, 19:02 PM
SkysTheLimit: Seeing the word genocide get thrown around really carelessly the last few months. Getting really old
22 Jan 2024, 18:09 PM

22 Jan 2024, 17:41 PM
OKSpitfire: :loco:
22 Jan 2024, 17:40 PM
donofsandiego: @OKSpitfire I'm glad we agree then.
22 Jan 2024, 17:34 PM
donofsandiego: @aerafield I do.
22 Jan 2024, 17:33 PM
Rosbone: @Nickbn B-)
22 Jan 2024, 17:12 PM
Nickbn: I'm "happy" to announce I have finally spotted Reverb in a game. He plays exactly like you'd expect him to. Happy hunting!
22 Jan 2024, 16:56 PM
OKSpitfire: @donofsandiego neither do we, you really don't need to preach.
22 Jan 2024, 16:29 PM
aerafield: @donofsandiego man I sure hope you had the same type of outrage about what your country did in the middle east in the last 30+ years
22 Jan 2024, 16:00 PM
donofsandiego: and I certainly don't support nosgoth
22 Jan 2024, 15:30 PM
donofsandiego: I don't support terrorism perpetrated by any group
22 Jan 2024, 15:30 PM
DonnieChan: lets all switch to nosgoth now. luvnest once said it s the next big competetive thing
22 Jan 2024, 12:45 PM
OKSpitfire: Would rather stick pins in my eyes
22 Jan 2024, 11:09 AM
OKSpitfire: Would rather stick pins in my eyes
22 Jan 2024, 11:08 AM
OKSpitfire: Yeah lets all just insert our politics where they don't belong and all start cheerleading for our respective teams. The patches are slow, we have to do something.
22 Jan 2024, 11:07 AM
Rosbone: You guys are worse than Coh3. :luvCarrot:
22 Jan 2024, 10:53 AM
OKSpitfire: Just what the kids need on their WW2 RTS forum :clap:
22 Jan 2024, 08:08 AM
Katitof: could we really please not have terrorism supporting here and stick to shittalking each other and the game?
22 Jan 2024, 08:04 AM
OKSpitfire: Heroic stuff Don, good to know you are so well informed.
22 Jan 2024, 07:59 AM
donofsandiego: not very big on 1v1s and 2v2s, and his niche is 4v4s, so seeing him back was nice
21 Jan 2024, 22:48 PM
donofsandiego: yeah, he was mostly making csgo content for a bit
21 Jan 2024, 22:45 PM
Willy Pete: Uhh okay
21 Jan 2024, 21:29 PM
donofsandiego: in other news, SkippyFX returned to CoH 2 after a long hiatus
21 Jan 2024, 21:16 PM
donofsandiego: back to your regularly scheduled programming
21 Jan 2024, 21:11 PM
donofsandiego: *now aware
21 Jan 2024, 21:10 PM
donofsandiego: as long as one person completely unaware is not aware, my only goal was achieved
21 Jan 2024, 21:10 PM
donofsandiego: You can dodge it but it won't go away unfortunately.
21 Jan 2024, 21:09 PM
Willy Pete: Yikes, nicely dodged everyone
21 Jan 2024, 21:06 PM
Rosbone: Goal, warm soup, soggy pants, check mate!
21 Jan 2024, 20:14 PM
donofsandiego: Sadly, I disagree. The simple fact of the matter is that jerboa are terrifying, not toads. If I'm to be perfectly honest here, I don't know why the sky is purple, but I'm damn sure that this sentence is false.
21 Jan 2024, 18:46 PM
OKSpitfire: Thanks Rosbone, nailed it.
21 Jan 2024, 18:17 PM
SkysTheLimit: :rolleyes:
21 Jan 2024, 17:51 PM
Rosbone: I will respond: Goats are like mushrooms. If you shoot a duck. Im afraid of toasters.
21 Jan 2024, 17:45 PM
donofsandiego: Just a reminder. No need to respond.
21 Jan 2024, 16:19 PM
OKSpitfire: Yep, I'm not touching that one either.
21 Jan 2024, 12:47 PM
Katitof: yes, please, real world politics, that's exactly what we need more of in gaming enclaves
21 Jan 2024, 09:22 AM
donofsandiego: How about that weather we're having huh? I sure am glad I turned cold tech back on :-)
21 Jan 2024, 08:02 AM
donofsandiego: I mean uhh

20 Jan 2024, 23:47 PM
Rosbone: DF plays 1v1 in Coh3. He memes 2v2 with Duffman on occasion. No serious 2v2 play.
19 Jan 2024, 17:55 PM
Willy Pete: i thought he did play 3 a bunch. but like many of us he thinks 2 is still better
19 Jan 2024, 17:37 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield Mmmmm Maps :thumbsup: If only @DIRTY_FINISHER played Coh3 2v2, then I could recreate his favorite map for him. :hansWUT:
18 Jan 2024, 19:34 PM
Willy Pete: their cost is the only problem imo. 25fu is just too cheap
18 Jan 2024, 19:09 PM
donofsandiego: marders are crazy in team games because their main gun can almost pen concrete and cost peanuts to produce
18 Jan 2024, 18:34 PM
Willy Pete: i mean DAK marders are already crazy in team games. so lets be careful with more TDs pls
18 Jan 2024, 17:57 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Ill take mobile long range TDs over Flak 88 walls that dont take weapon damage unless decrewed. Also can be recrewed for 50 mp instantly.
18 Jan 2024, 16:33 PM
Katitof: or to put it in other words - no mobile long range TDs in CoH3, so yeah, it would be just glorified marder
18 Jan 2024, 16:12 PM
Katitof: I don't think we can expect long range mobile TDs in CoH3, these stay behind in CoH2, if you want something with longer range than marder, then 88 and AT bunker is all you'll probably get
18 Jan 2024, 16:12 PM
aerafield: @Katitof much higher range, damage & penetration at the cost of lower mobility and slightly less armor. You can think of them like the Elefant, minus the bullshit insane armor & HP that lets apes get away with horrible mistakes all the time
18 Jan 2024, 15:53 PM
OKSpitfire: I'm sure they'll each have their own little niche. If they don't, they'll be so overpowered on release that nobody will care.
18 Jan 2024, 15:50 PM
Katitof: honest question, what does archer that grant doesn't? and nashron is just marder
18 Jan 2024, 15:26 PM
aerafield: If Churchill Crocodile, Command Churchill, Archer and Nashorn still aren't added to automatch by end of next spring then I'm losing my hope about CoH3 teamgames completely. And let's not forget about the ~30 or so other units that are withheld from MP
18 Jan 2024, 14:55 PM
Katitof: I just wonder how long it'll take to get new BGs for left out factions, need new DAK toys
18 Jan 2024, 12:44 PM
aerafield: @jesulin correct me if Im wrong but so far it always took 2-3 months for new major patches and 1.4 was early December @Rosbone nothing confirmed yet apart from adding community maps to automatch I think
18 Jan 2024, 12:24 PM
Rosbone: @jesulin Looks like it. What is the present for one year anniversary?
18 Jan 2024, 11:02 AM
jesulin: Is it true that the next patch will be at the end of February? :facepalm:
18 Jan 2024, 10:44 AM
Katitof: it was dead for a long time now, it just fell over :snfPeter:
17 Jan 2024, 09:03 AM
Reverb: COH2 DOWN COH2 DOWN :help:
16 Jan 2024, 23:16 PM
Rosbone: any word on when the next road map is due?
16 Jan 2024, 20:05 PM
Rosbone: Fair enough. Console could be behind because their menus were probably good at launch :snfPeter:
16 Jan 2024, 19:59 PM
aerafield: I really don't think the console version slows down CoH3, console is already lagging like 6 months or so behind with the patches, they're on patch 1.2 or something while PC is 1.4
16 Jan 2024, 18:23 PM
Rosbone: Just struggling to understand why the game is about 60% done.
16 Jan 2024, 17:32 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield That is my point, if they shared code bases the PC team may have been gated by the PS team. Every time they made some progress they needed to wait for it to be implemented in the PS code. Which could be more difficult to do. Just wondering aloud
16 Jan 2024, 17:30 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone Im pretty sure the whole console stuff for CoH3 is handled by a different studio/team, could be wrong though
16 Jan 2024, 16:31 PM
Katukov: @Rosbone because coh2 is better, + coh2 should be free due to 3 existing
16 Jan 2024, 13:09 PM
Katitof: Irrelevant, everyone who was interested got it.
16 Jan 2024, 12:50 PM
Rosbone: YOu had to have deep knowledge of the PS chip to get good performance from the threading model etc.
16 Jan 2024, 12:37 PM
Rosbone: I wonder how much having a PS5 team hinders the Coh3 dev team. Do they want to implement things that are just hard to do in PS world so they have to wait? Just recall PS3 chips being so different from Intel for example.
16 Jan 2024, 12:36 PM
Rosbone: Was Coh2 given away for free while Coh3 existed? :luvCarrot:
16 Jan 2024, 12:30 PM
Katitof: CoH2 was literally given out for free multiple times, which kind of proves you wrong by default
16 Jan 2024, 11:50 AM
Rosbone: If Coh2 were free, no one would buy Coh3. 20% of Coh3 reviews say Coh2 is better so I went back to it.
16 Jan 2024, 04:35 AM
Katukov: coh2 should be free ngl
16 Jan 2024, 01:07 AM
Rosbone: Skippy streaming Coh2. :romeoBANG:
15 Jan 2024, 22:41 PM

09 Jan 2024, 12:30 PM

09 Jan 2024, 02:58 AM
Willy Pete: i admit to US being my number 1 faction, but wher is easily my number 2
08 Jan 2024, 23:15 PM
Willy Pete: anyone else feel like nebelwerfer is a bit OP in team games? gives crazy value for its cost
08 Jan 2024, 23:14 PM

08 Jan 2024, 23:05 PM
Rosbone: @Katitof Coh3Stats.com
08 Jan 2024, 21:28 PM
Willy Pete: what is celo? coh3stats has pretty much everything one needs, including elo if that is related
08 Jan 2024, 20:59 PM
Katitof: anyone has a link for coh3 celo?
08 Jan 2024, 20:29 PM
VonIvan: CoH4 when?
07 Jan 2024, 22:07 PM
donofsandiego: Which I'm sure they did, but I think it needs a little more adjusting.
07 Jan 2024, 14:09 PM
donofsandiego: There's a reason why "foley artists" are an entire profession in Hollywood. I def think there's a middle ground here between simply recording IRL sounds and using fake/exaggerated sounds that sound nice.
07 Jan 2024, 14:07 PM
Hannibal: Also most expect hollywood sounds, so they will be disappointed if the realistic ones don't have the overexaggerated bass. Relic actually has great sound artists though, just listen to AoE4
07 Jan 2024, 09:39 AM
Hannibal: Regarding sound: I personally would have preferred more realistic sounds, but Relic justs didn't do a good job. Post Scriptum has excellent sound design while sticking to reallism, gives you real shivers. CoH3 was just dull and bland
07 Jan 2024, 09:37 AM
DonnieChan: @Rosbone your audio analysis is spot on!
06 Jan 2024, 21:52 PM
donofsandiego: real

Rosbone: @Protos Angelus I can tell you secret ways to get banned from here and the game like I did :guyokay:
06 Jan 2024, 18:10 PM
donofsandiego: If you want to get banned on here, criticize @ShadowLinkX37 :nahnah:
06 Jan 2024, 16:16 PM
Protos Angelus: Let's see if I can get banned here as well
06 Jan 2024, 15:34 PM
Protos Angelus: Criticized CoH3 on Discord -> Banned Criticitzed CoH3 on official forum -> banned Criticized CoH3 on steam forums -> banned
06 Jan 2024, 15:33 PM
Rosbone: The freqs that bring you close to a sound are bass and treble. Coh2 used this perfectly. Deep thuds with high end. Then mid ranged sounds for battles far away from you. Very immersive. Coh3 was not done when it came out so it was never tuned correctly.
04 Jan 2024, 22:56 PM
Rosbone: It is more realistic from your player POV. But much less immersive.
04 Jan 2024, 22:53 PM
Rosbone: Hollywood spent vast amounts of time and money to make the immersive sounds. Coh and COh2 used them. Coh3 sounds like a camcorder recorded it from 500m away.
04 Jan 2024, 22:52 PM
Rosbone: So every sound is thin and reduced to a crack noise. As opposed to Coh2s loud Bangs and thunks like the ordinates are hitting you in the face. So you feel distanced and removed from the action.
04 Jan 2024, 22:51 PM
Rosbone: @DonnieChan Coh3 is made by people trying to improve something they do not really understand. They went for realism in the sounds as you would hear them far away on a battlefield. Coh2s setting is up close and personal.
04 Jan 2024, 22:50 PM
Rosbone: I have never understood war and hatred. What could be so bad that you need to kill people for. For me there is no Them, only Us. We are on this ship together. Then Coh3 came out. Now I get it. :thumbsup:
04 Jan 2024, 22:47 PM
DonnieChan: can som1 explain me why a RTS from 2013 looks and sounds better than anything that came in 10 years afterwards
04 Jan 2024, 22:44 PM
Willy Pete: @DonnieChan depends on who you ask. the soldier on the ground doesnt get a notification for territory being taken. to him it probably feels like maphacking :banned:
04 Jan 2024, 16:33 PM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone go for it. i guess blaming me is trendy right now kappa
04 Jan 2024, 16:32 PM

04 Jan 2024, 10:08 AM
DonnieChan: so, did you maphack?
04 Jan 2024, 09:53 AM
Willy Pete: Just got my first ever accusations of maphacking... Because I barraged an MG that was de-capping my territory point....
04 Jan 2024, 03:42 AM
Rosbone: I agree. BUt since we cant tell what the stats are, we have to play sniper every game until we get a feel for it :luvCarrot:
03 Jan 2024, 22:09 PM
DonnieChan: good! Because sniper gameplay sucks ass and shouldnt be encouraged in any form
03 Jan 2024, 19:24 PM
Rosbone: Watching Havoc right now with a sniper. How many kills does it have? How efficient is he with it? What is a good time/kill in coh3 with a sniper? I guess we will never know because ... Relic does not play their own game.
03 Jan 2024, 19:22 PM
afrrs: https://ibb.co/3v6tjnC
03 Jan 2024, 14:38 PM
Katitof: @donofsandiego no, its about irrelevant statistic on a unit that'll die in next engagement. Tho I would like to see another WC3 kind of game, but WC3 apparently is not rts for not showing kill counts
02 Jan 2024, 22:29 PM
Rosbone: @Katitof A better analogy would be a car with no speedometer. How fast did you get to 60mph? Relic wont tell you? Your BMW M3 may as well be a Yugo. You wont know the difference. Save yourself a few bucks and just pretend you are going fast.
02 Jan 2024, 22:19 PM
donofsandiego: And see here I was thinking RTS games were all about strategizing in real time :new:
02 Jan 2024, 21:01 PM
Katitof: that's like saying you can't call a car a car if it does not have some cringe hanging out under rear view mirror in cabin
02 Jan 2024, 20:57 PM
Rosbone: vCoh, Coh2, My RTS, all have visible kill counts. You cant even call coh3 an RTS without them.
02 Jan 2024, 18:16 PM
Rosbone: People that play RTS are usually trigger happy banners. It will be hard to grow a coh3 community when viewers are getting banned for asking "How many kills bro" every 5 seconds.
02 Jan 2024, 18:14 PM
OKSpitfire: I agree. I do find it mildly irritating that you have to hover over it to see, but you just know they probably won't change it.
02 Jan 2024, 13:03 PM
Katitof: that's being picky for the sake of being petty
02 Jan 2024, 12:49 PM
Rosbone: Kills are NOT visible without hovering which is useless on streams.
02 Jan 2024, 11:14 AM
Katitof: yeah, I remembered, it came with one of first patches, feels like forever thio
02 Jan 2024, 08:35 AM

02 Jan 2024, 08:28 AM
Katitof: We do have kill counts tho since day 1?
02 Jan 2024, 08:07 AM
Rosbone: Seriously though, when is the next patch? I heard Feb? If we finally get kill counts I will post naked pictures of myself for you guys to ridicule and spit on. :snfQuinn:

31 Dec 2023, 14:02 PM
Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete It was actually a genuine suggestion. Even if you don't kill the Flakvierling, having it with long downtimes damaged can help. The vehicle acc changes were a mistake yes.
30 Dec 2023, 17:12 PM
Willy Pete: i dont think im being unreasonable here... like is said, DAK would obviously need buffs if its nerfed
30 Dec 2023, 02:19 AM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra im aware dude, dont need the sarcasm. with the current vehicle speed situation u should never lose it to an AT gun. at best it deters from that one spot
30 Dec 2023, 02:18 AM
Willy Pete: @aerafield def the next best option but i almost never kill it with one. meanwhile the chafee feels like it kills it too easily
30 Dec 2023, 02:16 AM

Katitof: Good enough, we DAK players are glad USF players are in denial about it
30 Dec 2023, 00:03 AM
aerafield: @Willy Pete how's the 57mm AT Halftrack holding up against it
29 Dec 2023, 23:39 PM
donofsandiego: but yeah I see DAK players making it their lifes work to poke with the flak and just sit behind AT guns in case of retaliation
29 Dec 2023, 20:07 PM
donofsandiego: I counter it by running away and pissing my pants
29 Dec 2023, 20:01 PM
Willy Pete: as US it feels like u can literally only counter it with a chafee. anything else requires ur opponent to be braindead
29 Dec 2023, 18:17 PM
Willy Pete: how is the flakverling not wildly OP? obvi u would need to buff DAK if its nerfed, but jesus christ its a ridiculous unit
29 Dec 2023, 18:16 PM
Katitof: mp cache for dak plz, paying 20 merit points

27 Dec 2023, 23:30 PM
Rosbone: Yesterday in Coh2 DF ran over some inf in the enemy base while his camera was in another location and we got to see the kills rise on the screen. Relic please add visible Kill counts to coh3. I will pay cash money. TY
27 Dec 2023, 20:37 PM
Duffman: The rank doesent go up to 5000 in coh3 does it? :foreveralone:
27 Dec 2023, 20:18 PM
Katitof: its bad enough merit challenges force you to play ai
27 Dec 2023, 16:38 PM
aerafield: nono the best solution obviously would be a leaver penalty. So now not only are you forced to play out unwinable games with rank 5k teammates vs 1k, now the players who want to give up just go afk instead of letting the cpu take over :foreveralone:
27 Dec 2023, 15:53 PM
Duffman: :foreveralone:
27 Dec 2023, 14:33 PM
Duffman: imagine a surrender button and a merit challenge to surrender 5 times per day, that would help the dropper problem surely
27 Dec 2023, 14:33 PM
PatFenis: you can farm the challenges in coop vs AI mode and many in singlpelayer skirmish. If people are actually actively farming the points in PvP then they are beyond braindead
27 Dec 2023, 13:47 PM
Rosbone: The weird challenges are damaging the MP scene also by forcing people to do certain things, you force them to leave games when their strats are not going to work. Start a new match and try again.
27 Dec 2023, 12:14 PM
Rosbone: LEAVERS: Chatting is Dirty_Finishers chat has brought us all to believe Relic needs to add a Surrender button and bring back supply/merit for playing MP games.
27 Dec 2023, 12:12 PM
KoRneY: The only benefit is you can get them out of your barracks for 15 fuel instead of having to wait for another 45 or 75 fuel for wehr/dak
27 Dec 2023, 01:29 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Considering allies are the only factions that have to directly pay for grenades/snares. I can understand the frustration. Especially since theres no clear benefit to allied snares/grenades over axis lol.
26 Dec 2023, 21:48 PM
Katitof: it amazes me how much people seem to hate DAK for them to get nades in 5th minute or earlier
26 Dec 2023, 21:06 PM
donofsandiego: It's always funny when someone says you're trolling/bad and then you check the end game stats and you did better them in every metric

donofsandiego: @Katitof speaking of that individual, I haven't seen them post here for a while
23 Dec 2023, 01:41 AM
donofsandiego: @Katitof someone on the mod team must dislike you immensely
23 Dec 2023, 01:36 AM
NorthWeapon: If they can add 2 factions, making it the first CoH with 6 factions, then I'd say the game will starting reaching 8K players
22 Dec 2023, 23:11 PM
NorthWeapon: They need to improve unit responsiveness significantly, add 2 more battlegroups, community maps, relic maps, and then I'd say it can compete with CoH 2
22 Dec 2023, 23:02 PM
Katitof: I'd say 3 is better right now
22 Dec 2023, 22:01 PM
Soheil: Coh2 is better or 3 ?
22 Dec 2023, 21:56 PM
Katitof: but power tripping glue eaters relic uses as mods there certainly are close
22 Dec 2023, 20:23 PM
Katitof: OKSpitfire I had questionable pleasure of engaging with certain individual on this site for years, anything below that tier is not even going to register on my patience chart
22 Dec 2023, 20:11 PM
momo4sho: someone said you can get coh3 for 40% off if you buy the franchise bundle and already own 1 and 2, is it true?
22 Dec 2023, 20:02 PM
NorthWeapon: Somehow it still looks really good. CoH 3 could've done a much better job in aesthetics
22 Dec 2023, 16:28 PM
NorthWeapon: @Duffman read on df stream that you played coh1, how'd it feel compared to coh3? wasn't it sort of unplayable cuz of the lack of QoL changes? No reverse, hold fire, armor priority
22 Dec 2023, 16:28 PM
KoRneY: Pretty much, one person asked. You can go ahead and think we all solicited your opinion if it makes you feel better though
22 Dec 2023, 15:26 PM

22 Dec 2023, 07:41 AM
NorthWeapon: the game isn't going to be balanced, COH 2 wasn't even after so many years. I rather new battlegroups asap
22 Dec 2023, 04:39 AM
KoRneY: balance is already tenuous with 2bgs, would prefer them to stagger it
22 Dec 2023, 02:42 AM
Rosbone: The spector of Relic always failing makes me wonder if they intended more for the last DLC but couldnt finish it. So maybe by Feb they finish the "real" DLC? That and some more QoL things could bring number up? We shall see. Happy Holidays Relic!
22 Dec 2023, 01:17 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield That video was probably the most honest vid Relic has put out about Coh3. The future is looking bright for most players. This last patch got about 500 players back. Next patch gets another 500 or so? So 2-3 more patches to get to Coh2 numbers?
22 Dec 2023, 01:13 AM

21 Dec 2023, 22:16 PM
NorthWeapon: looks like coh3 will be getting bug fixes, general changes, new maps by Relic, new community maps, "and much more"
21 Dec 2023, 22:16 PM
Atze: don't really know after 9000 playing time whether this can be normal

17 Dec 2023, 08:12 AM
Rosbone: But vCoh has the same exact issues. The menu system is trash. They must have the same moron doing it again??? It will be fine [crosses fingers and cries a little]. No one at Relic plays Coh. That is the main and critical problem.
17 Dec 2023, 08:10 AM
Rosbone: That means management does not care they have beginners writing critical game code. Which then means they do not care about the long term viability of the game.
17 Dec 2023, 08:07 AM
Rosbone: @NorthWeapon I agree that Coh3 runs great. So there are some very talented people there. But some people there are not. Like Programming 101 level people. And the fact their work is not being checked and let out the door is very scary.
17 Dec 2023, 08:06 AM
NorthWeapon: There was a recent video with a response from an engineer about the networking, pretty impressive statistics related to why rewind wont work
16 Dec 2023, 16:54 PM
NorthWeapon: @Rosbone so I think the engine code is solid, espeically because both AoE and CoH perform well. I do not notice serious lags in the networking. It seems like the gameplay layer (top-most) is what has serious bugs
16 Dec 2023, 16:53 PM
PatFenis: There is a reason its called a shoutbox, same could be accomplisehd with a jar.

16 Dec 2023, 15:18 PM
Rosbone: People here place 100% faith in the code that has units doing complicated calculations out of sync across continents. When the menu system was designed by a monkey with brain damage. I know I get nervous.
16 Dec 2023, 14:51 PM
Rosbone: Well relic is scary. When you see things in the game that are so poorly written you wonder if a child made it. You get a little nervous that the place may close down. How do write the simplest stuff wrong? Serious question.
16 Dec 2023, 14:49 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah man, you don't get to tell anybody about delusions. I remember your amazing 'build diversity' post that everyone rightly laughed about.

SkysTheLimit: Your eliciting mockery against you. That's the only reaction, let's be clear
15 Dec 2023, 16:18 PM
SkysTheLimit: It is whining. You apparently don't realize that most people here were also disappointed. They just actually played it, and are still giving it a chance. Unlike you, we aren't talking straight from our asssholes
15 Dec 2023, 16:17 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: A great example of what a developer not about to go out of business does when they have a mediocre launch.
15 Dec 2023, 15:54 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: For my part, I enjoy seeing a deluded bunch sucking the corporate teat, and it amuses me when the facts elicit reactions. Am I punching down? Yes. Do I care? Not really.
15 Dec 2023, 15:53 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: It's funny that you see that as whining
15 Dec 2023, 15:52 PM
aerafield: A new game comes out, you dislike it. Now you keep regularly coming back for 10 months straight to a nearly dead fanpage about the predecessor with less than 20 active users in order to whine about said game for the 3583th time. Very normal behavior imo
15 Dec 2023, 15:12 PM
PatFenis: its the latter, he just assumes that there is still someone who doesnt know his take on coh3 which has no new nuance added since launch.
15 Dec 2023, 14:47 PM
SkysTheLimit: I think you just suck at coh3. Or you haven't even played it, which would only make it more pathetic that you spend this much time whining about it
15 Dec 2023, 14:45 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: The delusions just continue to be amusing.
15 Dec 2023, 13:57 PM
OKSpitfire: Vermillion has been telling anyone who will listen the same thing, over and over again since release. He is so disgusted that this game continues to exist and that some people actually enjoy it, lol.
15 Dec 2023, 09:21 AM
momo4sho: this dude has said relic is shutting down for the last year. based on my memory, relic was also supposed to shut down in 2013, 2014, 2015 and so on
15 Dec 2023, 02:39 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Yes, those things do tend to be proportionate - Relic, however, is one of the smallest fish in the pond. Not even remotely comparable.
14 Dec 2023, 19:41 PM
NorthWeapon: Well yeah Blizzard is huge, but its lawsuits were equally huge, and the botched Overwatch 2 and Diablio releases are in the same magnitude as their revenue streams
14 Dec 2023, 19:38 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I'm sure they do but I also don't think that support is contingent on Relic existing - I'm sure the relevant people would end up at Forgotten Empires or something.
14 Dec 2023, 19:37 PM
NorthWeapon: Also i think you are handwaving the Microsoft - Relic relationship. AOE is made using Essence, and the core devs are Relic engineers. The engine is about 20 years old. As a game engine dev, I can assure you the 3rd party devs rely on Relic engineering supp
14 Dec 2023, 19:36 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: They also had a massively successful launch in the same year, and Relic hasn't had one of those in a decade.
14 Dec 2023, 19:35 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Blizzard has so, so many different revenue streams to fall back on - millions of people still subscribe to World of Warcraft
14 Dec 2023, 19:33 PM
NorthWeapon: Shuts their doors permanently? Even Blizzard with their botched Overwatch 2 launch and lawsuits didn't shut down.
14 Dec 2023, 19:31 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Or, option C - Relic shuts their doors, permanently, Age of Empires IV ends up fine because Microsoft has support studios, Company of Heroes 3 remains a monumental failure.
14 Dec 2023, 19:30 PM
NorthWeapon: So from this knowledge I can conclude that a) they will continue working on AoE b) they will support CoH
14 Dec 2023, 19:28 PM
NorthWeapon: #5 There has been a survey for future CoH developments and general review of the game. The last part was options for new maps / balance / battlegroups
14 Dec 2023, 19:28 PM
NorthWeapon: Neither do you, I am working with the same knowledge available to you. What I do know is #1 AoE is successful, #2 CoH is on life support, #3 they do not have any career postings = #4 they are not in full production making another game
14 Dec 2023, 19:26 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: There are two other developers listed as working alongside Relic, and Microsoft owns the IP. Even if that's a four-way split then it's still unsustainable for Relic.
14 Dec 2023, 19:21 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: You don't even know if any of that profit from Age of Empires IV goes back to Relic in any meaningful way. We don't even know how much Relic is involved with its continued development.
14 Dec 2023, 19:20 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: You don't have any idea what an actual business perspective is. The actual business perspective is profit off of the idiot fans, stuff your pockets and flee the sinking ship, which is already happening
14 Dec 2023, 19:19 PM
NorthWeapon: If I was Relic I would milk AoEIV and get CoH out of life support instead of a new game. Making games in 2023 is extremely expensive compared to any time before
14 Dec 2023, 19:18 PM
NorthWeapon: I am talking from a business perspective here. They made profit off of AoEIV and especially the recent expansion. The reviews are good and increasing, so that means they will want to milk it more with more Expansions. They did AoE -> CoH team transfers
14 Dec 2023, 19:17 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: My point is that the lesser expenditure resulted in a lesser product, albeit for additional, non-fiduciary reasons
14 Dec 2023, 19:16 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: And if you think there's a fully-fledged expansion coming next year then please preorder my new early access game that I'm definitely making
14 Dec 2023, 19:15 PM
NorthWeapon: So decimating the staff means less expenditure
14 Dec 2023, 19:14 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: There's no significant moral or financial payoff anywhere down the line for this game.
14 Dec 2023, 19:14 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: They decimated all their staff to the point where they only just now got the game to a state that I would probably have given a 6/10 to on launch.
14 Dec 2023, 19:13 PM
NorthWeapon: From a pure review statistics perspective. CoH went from an all-time low of mostly negative to (~37%) around Apr - June to mixed ~52% after expansion, with overall recent reviews being 60%, so statistically they are at least improving the player response
14 Dec 2023, 19:12 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: What profit?
14 Dec 2023, 19:08 PM
NorthWeapon: Cuz I'm not irrationally butthurt and dooming. If I was Relic I would do another expansion and profit off of that instead of paying hundreds of millions for another game. After the layoff, maybe I'll have a project in the backburner, but cashcow = AOE/COH
14 Dec 2023, 19:00 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: What makes you think there's going to be another expansion? Or even another update?
14 Dec 2023, 15:14 PM
NorthWeapon: @Rosbone I don't think CoH 3 playercount will beat CoH 2 unless they keep up what they are doing but at a more frequent pace. Perhaps the 2nd large expansion/dlc/update might make the numbers equal

13 Dec 2023, 23:22 PM
Rosbone: Sound like fun changes for the casuals indeed. Player counts have not rebounded yet though. Coh2 > Coh3 still. Not enough comp stompers, which is the most fun play style for 3.

donofsandiego: holy crap lois playing with rangers is like that one time i played with guastatoris
12 Dec 2023, 20:48 PM
NorthWeapon: So a general +4.5% accuracy buff for Rangers, but only at Vet 2. Also makes it scale more significantly because it starts off at a lower accuracy
12 Dec 2023, 20:38 PM
Lady Xenarra: Errrr are ppl aware of this 6 man squad with elite SMGs shooting your face off at 04:00?
12 Dec 2023, 20:37 PM
NorthWeapon: But at Vet 2 they get +10% so the accuracy becomes higher than the original
12 Dec 2023, 19:32 PM
NorthWeapon: Which means they got a 5% accuracy reduction
12 Dec 2023, 19:31 PM
NorthWeapon: I am curious about the ranger SMG changes. They used to be 0.54/0.33/0.18 now they are 0.513/0.3135/0.171.

OKSpitfire: If it had been as good at tank hunting as its axis counterparts it would have been broken as fuck. It used to delete infantry too, it couldn't be great at everything.
12 Dec 2023, 16:36 PM
Willy Pete: Yeah ISU was amazing in absence of JT and Ele. Could still be good with those around too, cuz the cmdr with it has mark target
12 Dec 2023, 14:46 PM
Lady Xenarra: @NorthWeapon Ah yes, what could be OP about a squad deleting tank that shoots out to 60 and automatically kills you if you don’t get Ele/JT...
12 Dec 2023, 13:46 PM
SupremeStefan: @NorthWeapon in coh2 i was usually play usf 4vs4 and i know this feeling that's why i move to coh3
12 Dec 2023, 05:43 AM
Rosbone: :rofl:
12 Dec 2023, 03:51 AM
Duffman: ISU dosent suck :foreveralone: i would know
11 Dec 2023, 20:51 PM
NorthWeapon: The ISU-152 is the only equivalent the Allies have, and it sucks after all the repeated nerfs, in comparison to what its facing in the 4v4 maps. I've seen play at the highest level on some of the tourney replays and it degresses 2 rocketart + superheavies
11 Dec 2023, 20:24 PM
NorthWeapon: Redball express is the most trash map ever for this reason, it is unbelievable unfair to play as axis because so many things in their disposal are perfect for lane maps. And USF sucks without shot blockers and movement opportunities.
11 Dec 2023, 20:23 PM
NorthWeapon: The stress of playing as USF knowing there's a ticking time bomb before there's JTs, Elefants, KTs, and Tigers in the field with Stukas and Obers is absolutely stressful
11 Dec 2023, 20:21 PM
NorthWeapon: CoH 3 is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more balanced in 4s. Everyoen has access to their mediocre medium tanks and light tanks. I know that there is no late-game I win buttons, so I am not beating against the clock
11 Dec 2023, 20:20 PM
NorthWeapon: Super heavies in 4v4 made it unplayable against Axis in CoH 2. They were cool but they are very stressful to fight against because you need to do some much micro and they don't, they just sit on Redball Express. Its very bad design
11 Dec 2023, 20:19 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: TBH 1v1s aren’t so bad. So maybe just play that :)
11 Dec 2023, 17:57 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: This is what the fans wanted Clueless
11 Dec 2023, 17:56 PM
aerafield: @DonnieChan when people complained about coh2 heavy tanks, usually they mean the superheavy class (JT, Ele, ISU). Those were unhealthy imo. KT was on the edge of OP/bad design. But this light & medium tank spam in CoH3 is so stupid in teamgames
11 Dec 2023, 17:36 PM
Protos Angelus: Agreed. Super heavies were stupid in CoH2. Heavies were not. Except the KT with spearhead and commander 72 vision. Super heavies paired with maps that are basically spagetti lanes (0 flanks), lead to dumb elefant/jagd parking
11 Dec 2023, 17:27 PM
SkysTheLimit: Heavy tanks =\= heavy TDs. Heavy TDs in coh2 were way dumber than the heavy tanks
11 Dec 2023, 16:04 PM
SquishyMuffin: any updates on when they're unpausing elo/ranks in coh3?
11 Dec 2023, 16:03 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah a lot of people used to complain about super heavies, you can never please everyone it seems.
11 Dec 2023, 12:45 PM
Crecer13: These were some of the most epic 3v3 and 4v4 battles we played with friends. It was an incredible ardinoline drive. With a ton of Tigers, ISU-152, etc.
11 Dec 2023, 11:49 AM
Crecer13: @DonnieChan I don’t know who’s crying about this, but the moment before there was no limit on heavy tanks in CoH2 was one of the best moments in the game.
11 Dec 2023, 11:47 AM
DonnieChan: coh2 crying: ehhh so many heavy tanks!!! coh3 crying: ehhhh too few heavy tanks
11 Dec 2023, 10:58 AM
donofsandiego: excellent :megusta:
11 Dec 2023, 02:21 AM
Rosbone: Pjlaryer count was up about 50% this weekend thowgh :snfDevm:
10 Dec 2023, 22:13 PM
Rosbone: Bekersz uvv stuffs
10 Dec 2023, 21:30 PM
donofsandiego: WHY PJLARYER COUNT SO LWO
10 Dec 2023, 20:52 PM
Rosbone: Thats right! I said PLARYER COUNT!
10 Dec 2023, 20:09 PM
Rosbone: "Every game devolves to big tonks and arty!" Relic removes big tanks and arty. "This game sucks its no fun!" Wonder why sales and plaryer counts are low :romeoMug:
10 Dec 2023, 20:08 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Ok what have you done with the real aerafield? :help:
10 Dec 2023, 19:33 PM
Duffman: Never tought i would read those words from a aerafield msg :foreveralone:
10 Dec 2023, 19:06 PM
aerafield: I need my heavy tanks or else I can't cope with CoH3's teamgames
10 Dec 2023, 17:26 PM
donofsandiego: can the devs please just keep releasing content
10 Dec 2023, 17:04 PM
Lady Xenarra: Well that didn’t take long. Got lots of Rangers charging Guastatori in heavy cover :rofl::rofl::rofl:
10 Dec 2023, 14:50 PM
donofsandiego: That panzerkraft gamemode is pretty neat
10 Dec 2023, 12:24 PM
donofsandiego: As a casual player I do declare that I'm fine with the fast tick rates. Make games VS way better teams as quick and painless as possible thanks.
10 Dec 2023, 12:24 PM
Kieselberg: k thx
09 Dec 2023, 19:47 PM
PatFenis: they suspended elo rating due to thje desync issue which they sofar only addressed with an hotfix.
09 Dec 2023, 18:26 PM
Kieselberg: Why dont i rank up, when winning games recently?
09 Dec 2023, 18:20 PM
PatFenis: But by all fairness. I assume people more in the loop have somewhat less of a stuggle. But I dont know how returning players/new players would stick around currently.
09 Dec 2023, 17:14 PM
PatFenis: Im gonna give this game later another try with some buddies, but as of now: coh3 will likely stay shelfed until they up their game with their updating interval.
09 Dec 2023, 17:10 PM
PatFenis: scene*
09 Dec 2023, 17:07 PM
PatFenis: When it comes to tournaments and competition. Of course there is also barely a seen given the playerbase lol.
09 Dec 2023, 17:06 PM
PatFenis: Meanwhile, if you loose early game and you cant bounce back asap, you just flat out lose the game within 2 mins. That is not really fun in my books. Competetively it makes sense, but they clearly dont care more than some pitty money.
09 Dec 2023, 17:06 PM
OKSpitfire: It would be so funny if they changed it back, at this point. That would be one hell of an admission.
09 Dec 2023, 17:04 PM
OKSpitfire: So many people hate the fast VP drain but Relic seems committed to keeping it fast.
09 Dec 2023, 17:03 PM
PatFenis: Then they release the ultimate tower rush commander free artilerly call ins and cheap mines by mid game. Basically grinding push to a hold until you adequate counters to some thing like that
09 Dec 2023, 17:03 PM
PatFenis: I feel like there is no cohesive vision when it comes to "What to do with MP" On one hand they want fast games, but atleast to public opinion, TTK is low with VP drain high.
09 Dec 2023, 17:02 PM
Protos Angelus: And they do need to rework the tank ranges. It's silly that a TD only has 5 range advantage over other tanks. Especially now with the instant 100% velocity acceleration on tanks. I'd like to meet the designer that proposed that
09 Dec 2023, 16:58 PM
Protos Angelus: CoH3 has a lot of potential. Question is, will it survive long enough for it to get all the necessary content (BGs, heavy tanks, campaigns...) and balance out the game without killing all the fun. Right now everything is moving at a snails pace
09 Dec 2023, 16:56 PM
Protos Angelus: with heavy tanks and whatnot. Especially now that there are no 72 sight range KTs and Redball maps with 0 flanking opportunity. Eg. "Park elefant and shoot" maps.
09 Dec 2023, 16:53 PM
Protos Angelus: The problem is. x4 the players means 4000 players. Since CoH3 has silly 1000 players actively playing at any time. So it's still a low number for decent matchmaking. And they do need to slow down the VP drain. It's stupid to not have any long games anymore
09 Dec 2023, 16:53 PM
PatFenis: I really wonder how certain gameplay designers would have allowed such things to release. Free 20 sec cd overwatch artillery. Good thing coh3 is not punishing at all for small mistakes due to faster VP drain.
09 Dec 2023, 16:23 PM
OKSpitfire: Yeah they are both pretty broken and stupid at the moment.
09 Dec 2023, 16:13 PM
PatFenis: As a returning player, i am quite off-put tbh. relearning the game is not fun
09 Dec 2023, 16:02 PM
PatFenis: playerbase rose by x4, cant find a game in 2v2,3v3 &4v4 in under 5 mins as axis. Play as allies and you get the DLC buyers wrath of artillery officer call ins everywhere.
09 Dec 2023, 16:01 PM
Lady Xenarra: So we have time travelling Brits from 1945 (BP) and now Italians from the 21st Century and laser guided light arty. Interesting :lol:
09 Dec 2023, 13:19 PM
Protos Angelus: Attention? Dude, I come to this forum once a month. Couldn't give less f**** about anything CoH related except maybe decent changes on the horizon
08 Dec 2023, 22:11 PM
Protos Angelus: F*** me, didn't even realize it was a fan video. My bad
08 Dec 2023, 22:10 PM
Immoraliste: Why not label it as a fan video of stuff you want? You've posted it on every Coh platform giving the impression it's the Relic 2024 release. Why mislead and manipulate people just to get attention?
08 Dec 2023, 22:02 PM
Protos Angelus: The 2024 PC roadmap. If they can deliver all of those WANTED and NEEDED points. CoH3 could make a comeback.
08 Dec 2023, 21:59 PM
Thunderhun: I wish all relic employees and shills a very dead game and never work on a project again ;)
08 Dec 2023, 20:29 PM
Thunderhun: Happy to see that relic meme'd the balance again with overpriced DLC
08 Dec 2023, 20:29 PM
Willy Pete: Way too many off-maps lol
08 Dec 2023, 16:02 PM
donofsandiego: It's fine, recon tractor's had that for ages :megusta:
08 Dec 2023, 00:35 AM
OKSpitfire: Hmm... another call-in barrage that comes in so fast team weapons can't dodge it. Good stuff.
07 Dec 2023, 15:13 PM
SkysTheLimit: @Lady Xenarra What a shocker
07 Dec 2023, 15:08 PM
IJustDontCare: fucking nobody plays coh3 which i understand. takes forever to get a game
07 Dec 2023, 04:29 AM
Lady Xenarra: I think it can be safely said that the 2 new BGs will be the meta for the near-and-mid future.
07 Dec 2023, 02:47 AM
Rosbone: Or just try the hotfix :clap:
06 Dec 2023, 22:06 PM
Rosbone: If anyone has lost FPS with the new patch, roll back your texture quality in the graphics settings and test. report back if it helps please.
06 Dec 2023, 21:44 PM
Rosbone: Well coh is a strange beast. How many people have 5k hours in Doom? None. Long term investment will pay off for some players.
06 Dec 2023, 21:41 PM
PatFenis: built*
06 Dec 2023, 21:24 PM
PatFenis: ". I want to support developers when they are trying so i dont mind spending money even though i won't probably play for now. I even bought the DLC. I see this as a return on investment, eventually." Redditors are build different
06 Dec 2023, 21:23 PM
Rosbone: @Protos Angelus They had to put something out for the DLC liability. Then they had to charge enough for it that premium people felt they didnt get screwed. As usual, they screwed themselves and look bad. Is normal. :guyokay:
06 Dec 2023, 21:14 PM
Protos Angelus: But what they are doing with CoH3 is just plain cash grab. I remember a time when RTS expansions were bascially a new game. Not this DLC hokum
06 Dec 2023, 20:52 PM
Protos Angelus: @Rosbone my review is still thumbsdown. 2 battlegroups, worthless cosmetics and 1 campaign battlegroup that adds nothing new? For 20 euros? Yeah, no thx. I bought the premium edition just to support relic, since I bought COH2 complete, for 10 euros...
06 Dec 2023, 20:51 PM
Immoraliste: Maybe understandable with the new battle groups just released, but every 4v4 match (average standard) literally involves 30+ bunkers being built all over the map. Having persisted with coh3 since release, I'm taking a break for a while. >:(
06 Dec 2023, 12:15 PM
maritn: 100% agree, CoH3 need this
06 Dec 2023, 11:46 AM
PatFenis: Dont have the DLC or enough merit to buy the BG? Too bad you need to look up externally to figure out what all the buffs are doing.
06 Dec 2023, 08:17 AM
PatFenis: This is especially a problem with the new Wehr BG and the plethora of the spagehtti reserves get.
06 Dec 2023, 08:16 AM
PatFenis: Have a PDF open with every known buff until it becomes intuition from playing the game?
06 Dec 2023, 08:15 AM
PatFenis: While im glad that they are working on visuals and ui, its insane that you still cant look at buffs/debuff effects ingame to this date. How do you want to learn the game as a casual ?
06 Dec 2023, 08:15 AM
DonnieChan: Havent played the patch yet, but Rangers seem OP, judging from the Videos
06 Dec 2023, 07:17 AM
Rosbone: Yes, coh3 is a known hacker. Please ban :banned:
06 Dec 2023, 06:40 AM
Willy Pete: Apparently de-syncs are way up too. Whoops
06 Dec 2023, 05:54 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: The “patch” did make the game pretty. The core issues for why people dislike COH3 have not been addressed. The expansion is so bad its fun. Until your on the receiving end and you realize the next patch is 3 months away.
06 Dec 2023, 05:42 AM
Willy Pete: Game looks and feels better. Still not enjoying it tho lol
06 Dec 2023, 04:47 AM
ShadowLinkX37: Only watched rope's video but the visuals look a lot better, and some nice UI changes across the board. Agree with aera though, more work to be done I think.
06 Dec 2023, 03:03 AM
NigelBallsworth: my two cents- with AdvInf, I'm glad USF are finally viable again in team games. I'm optimistic, but it seems that anytime Allies get something good, it gets nerfed to shit
06 Dec 2023, 02:35 AM
aerafield: Definitely a good & special patch, but I don't think we can call this the turning point yet
06 Dec 2023, 00:51 AM
Hannibal: so what's the verdict so far? Does it feel like a special patch or more like standard?
06 Dec 2023, 00:20 AM
Lady Xenarra: Am I seeing this correctly? Rangers get 6 Thompsons? :rofl:
05 Dec 2023, 23:41 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield I didnt read them, Duffman pointed them out. 30% positive for the patch so far :thumb:
05 Dec 2023, 22:52 PM
Rosbone: Is that a lot?
05 Dec 2023, 22:51 PM
MiltToast: Only 10,000 Merit to get the ranger upgrade
05 Dec 2023, 22:51 PM
Rubberluck: The new italian BG + day 101 map is absolute cancer. Set up a network of bunkers in the town to the right and then push everywhere else while the allies have to wait for the CP to call in artillery. By the time that happens, you have tanks. GG no RE
05 Dec 2023, 22:40 PM
Rubberluck: The new
05 Dec 2023, 22:39 PM
aerafield: the patch is out for 4 hours and you're already spam-reading the reviews on steam?
05 Dec 2023, 22:32 PM
Rosbone: I really expected steam reviews to go up after teh patch but they seem to be tanking hard at the lack of content on this patch. Once again Sega greed is the issue. $17 for a couple battlegroups and units? Bad call. But they had to offset the premium price
05 Dec 2023, 21:17 PM
NorthWeapon: 4,000 players playing now, record in the past 6 months
05 Dec 2023, 19:51 PM
Rosbone: Coh3 player count up to 3600 already and I think the increase is mainly people streaming :hansWUT:
05 Dec 2023, 19:49 PM
NorthWeapon: Absolutely gigantic patch
05 Dec 2023, 17:40 PM
adamírcz: restart function? like, something different from just quitting the game and startin it again? interesting
04 Dec 2023, 16:41 PM
Rosbone: What is the best part of Coh3 and why is it the Q MODE mod?
04 Dec 2023, 07:12 AM
Rosbone: @adamírcz Coh2s built in restart function is nice! If you restart the game, the log file is probably not the problem.
04 Dec 2023, 03:26 AM
adamírcz: anyway, I can just delete log files manually, will that fuck me up?
03 Dec 2023, 17:26 PM
adamírcz: what did you think, that I just play 24/7, nonstop? kappa
03 Dec 2023, 17:21 PM
adamírcz: of course, I restart, hell, sometimes the game even does it for me (splat)
03 Dec 2023, 17:20 PM
adamírcz: hmm, thx for the help
03 Dec 2023, 17:20 PM
Rosbone: Do you restart Coh2 ever? Most CELO apps use the log file to get match info. When you restart Coh2, the file is deleted and a new version is started. I would suggest restarting Coh2 in case the log file is the issue.
03 Dec 2023, 05:26 AM
Rosbone: @adamírcz Are you using the Coh2Stats desktop app? You might try their Discord server https://discord.com/invite/jRrnwqMfkr.
03 Dec 2023, 05:24 AM
adamírcz: guys, how do I fix the CoH2 desktop app when it gets stuck on a match played in the past?
02 Dec 2023, 22:56 PM
Rosbone: Coh3 is finally getting some needed polish. I said I think David Phan is our guy. Judging by the amount of grey hairs between his videos, that sentiment is doubly reinforced. Obama levels of aging. Thanks DP.
02 Dec 2023, 15:14 PM
momo4sho: we will know about gameplay/balance changes on the day of the patch, they didnt disclose that kind of stuff
01 Dec 2023, 17:32 PM
PatFenis: godsent*
01 Dec 2023, 15:14 PM
PatFenis: aight, so nothing godset they didnt mention so far.
01 Dec 2023, 15:14 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: The person hyping it up the most. Is the same person who said it was 8/10 at launch. Should read the boy who cried wolf and compare similarities.
01 Dec 2023, 13:39 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: @PatFenis biggest changes are to visuals. Not gameplay or audio. So no. Its overhyped for sure. The new BGS are also going to be extreme cancer.
01 Dec 2023, 13:37 PM
Rosbone: @PatFenis It is always good to see all the people working hard to fix the game. It is 3 hours though, so your call to sit thru it all. I didnt. What does Reddit have to say?
01 Dec 2023, 06:59 AM
PatFenis: given, there are only like 5 people on here most of the time :gimpy:
01 Dec 2023, 05:58 AM
PatFenis: Is it worth seeing the livestream vod? Nobody here seems to be crazy excited unlike reddit
01 Dec 2023, 05:55 AM
Rosbone: @jesulin Resting and quietly getting ready to pounce :ph34r:
30 Nov 2023, 23:17 PM
jesulin: "dead" :guyokay:
30 Nov 2023, 22:06 PM
Rosbone: @Sir Edgelord Many players do not come here anymore since Coh3 is dead and they dont want to play Coh2 anymore. So we are in limbo until Coh3 gets good.
30 Nov 2023, 21:08 PM
Sir Edgelord: Just posted in Red Army strategies for help and wanna know the estimated wait time before any results
30 Nov 2023, 19:21 PM
Sir Edgelord: How long is the wait before anyone answers a plea for help on the Forums these days?
30 Nov 2023, 19:20 PM
Rosbone: 1 hour to go ... https://www.twitch.tv/companyofheroes
30 Nov 2023, 17:00 PM
Rosbone: 3 whole hours of Shepards Pie talk... cant wait :romeoHype:
30 Nov 2023, 16:59 PM
Rosbone: So when and where is this Arm & Hammer Panty Shield thing B-)
30 Nov 2023, 16:56 PM
aerafield: yeah Archer & Nashorn right now are very slow glas cannons, I cannot see how they're gonna be even remotely problematic as the elefant or ISU from coh2
28 Nov 2023, 23:03 PM
Willy Pete: then u had isu, ele, and jagd with low rof but tons of hp and armor. as long as its neither of the coh2 classes of td :thumbsup:
28 Nov 2023, 21:08 PM
Willy Pete: @Lady Xenarra i think they could be okay. need to be fragile and slow firing. coh2 tds had range, high rof, high accuracy and same hp as mediums. too much going for em
28 Nov 2023, 21:06 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Well there has to be a balance. Few really want to fight a Tiger every match. I already reel each time I see the BP. Nashorn and Archer are...dangerous. 240 alpha, range 60 TDs can bring more problems than solutions.
28 Nov 2023, 18:56 PM
Sir Edgelord: Played some CoH1 campaigns and ranked matches and felt a little too nostalgic for CoH2, decided to reinstall it.
28 Nov 2023, 18:40 PM
Sir Edgelord: I was talking about being back to CoH2 but sure thing
28 Nov 2023, 18:39 PM
Robeers Company: robeers
28 Nov 2023, 17:37 PM
Willy Pete: you want a nashorn? how about the much more exciting pak40 concrete bunker?
28 Nov 2023, 17:18 PM
aerafield: Tiger is way too rare. CoH3 needs Nashorn, Archer, Croc, Command Churchill, Pershing, KT and the likes ASAP
28 Nov 2023, 17:00 PM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield UKF lategame meta is Matilda/Churchill spam. I’ve been seeing a lot of Whizzbang spam too. That said, Tiger still exists as a game changer.
28 Nov 2023, 16:39 PM
aerafield: I dont think I'll ever be super interested in CoH3's teamgames as long as the lategame is just this degenerate medium tank spam as the only option
28 Nov 2023, 16:29 PM
donofsandiego: A few more in my friend group have come back to CoH 3 at the behest of one of my friends who never disliked coh3 that much to begin woth and it seems like the others like the game a bit more now.
28 Nov 2023, 15:54 PM
PatFenis: wowee, a trending post from this year. WE BACK BOIZ :thumbsup:
28 Nov 2023, 11:58 AM
momo4sho: People can also change their reviews IIRC
27 Nov 2023, 22:29 PM
Rosbone: Maybe that is when it went on sale on Amazon? The 21st?
27 Nov 2023, 20:05 PM
Rosbone: Looks like Nov 21st was when there was a bunch of positive reviews all of a sudden.
27 Nov 2023, 19:56 PM
Rosbone: Yes coh3 is still in beta for a few more months minimum. Strangely Steam was 49% good for months then suddenly went to 63% the last few days. Very weird.
27 Nov 2023, 19:53 PM
OKSpitfire: To give the people currently working on it some credit, it is improving, albeit very, very slowly.
27 Nov 2023, 19:05 PM
OKSpitfire: In a nutshell: they broke a few promises, didn't listen to the community and released a broken, unfinished game. It feels a bit slower than it's predecessor and it's missing a lot of content compared to current coh 2.
27 Nov 2023, 19:03 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Its pretty easy. Just look at the steam reviews. A lot of people are unhappy. But some people also enjoy it. If you liked COH2 you probably wont like COH3.
27 Nov 2023, 18:37 PM
OKSpitfire: I wouldn't dare answer that question, we have a couple of people on here who would be very, very happy to write you a list.
27 Nov 2023, 17:55 PM
Sir Edgelord: Why though?
27 Nov 2023, 17:25 PM
OKSpitfire: Give it another year I reckon. Now isn't a great time :D
27 Nov 2023, 17:24 PM
Sir Edgelord: Maybe even 2021 honestly I didn't count.
27 Nov 2023, 16:39 PM
Sir Edgelord: Yo everyone, haven't been here since 2020. How much has changed?
27 Nov 2023, 16:38 PM
maritn: It's the preorder bonus.
27 Nov 2023, 15:07 PM
maritn: I mean... 20% off a week before release doesn't sound too bad. :rolleyes:
27 Nov 2023, 15:05 PM
Duffman: 35$ for the game 25$ for shipping and tax. Thx norway :foreveralone:
27 Nov 2023, 14:14 PM
Katitof: there are no longer physical editions, you just get steam code in a box, they send you the code through email and then you get the box

Rosbone: @momo4sho Thats a better deal for sure. If you count the $17 DLC and its almost like getting Coh3 for $23 US.
27 Nov 2023, 05:06 AM
momo4sho: premium edition is 50% off on amazon, but i think its physical edition and no idea how it looks outiside of US

adamírcz: Hello, how do I fix the desktop app if it keeps showin a match from two days ago even though I played 10+ since then
26 Nov 2023, 20:26 PM
Crecer13: @Rosbone 20%? It would be necessary to do 75% at least in order to somehow attract people. Online is down, content is being released on a huge scale, live service is working.
26 Nov 2023, 08:27 AM
Rosbone: Coh3 is 20% off on Steam right now! So dont be lame, buy the game :romeoHype:

SkysTheLimit: Testing multi zook rangers that can fire on the move is going to be pretty wild
25 Nov 2023, 20:48 PM
SkysTheLimit: It depends on the damage reduction numbers. I think the US BG would spank it, got concerns about that one too
25 Nov 2023, 20:44 PM
Lady Xenarra: @SkysTheLimit Tbh I haven't seen anything in the new WM BG that can't be fairly easily beaten by typical light arty Allied build orders these days. Maybe the Obice will be problematic, but that's late game
25 Nov 2023, 19:48 PM
aerafield: All the bunkers have a fixed frontal cone compared to the brit 360° bofors. And there also is no mortar emplacement, which was the main reason why brit sim city was so broken and frustrating
25 Nov 2023, 17:32 PM
aerafield: I don't like this BG design either but as long as it's not very viable in comp play then I have absolutely no issues with it. The compstomp and casual custom game scene will love it and that's good
25 Nov 2023, 17:30 PM
OKSpitfire: I hate sim city but they seem to insist on having some version of it in every iteration of the game, for whatever reason.
25 Nov 2023, 15:46 PM
SkysTheLimit: Officer with damage reduction for nearby infantry, and a bunker with damage reduction for nearby bunkers that is also a forward retreat
25 Nov 2023, 15:04 PM
SkysTheLimit: @aerafield Try to tell me you aren't rolling your eyes as you watch that video lol. This looks awful
25 Nov 2023, 15:02 PM

23 Nov 2023, 22:59 PM
PatFenis: Ahahahahahahaha ha ha haaaaa. we all love to play against sim city right ?
23 Nov 2023, 21:54 PM
KoRneY: back in the day dev cycles weren't quite as long either. not in defense of relic, but it seems an industry wide problem that's yet to be solved
23 Nov 2023, 14:33 PM
PatFenis: This might suprise you, but back in the day, faction specific art design was 100% done on launch.
23 Nov 2023, 10:06 AM
PatFenis: Its such a joke, that Relic pats themselves on the back for having diffferent mine models. Such a joke that they did not slap the 'Early access' lable of shame on the game.

23 Nov 2023, 06:54 AM
Rosbone: No relic has written off Coh3 multiplayer. They're making something for the bulk of the audience not the 2k people playing MP. MP is dead and gone.

20 Nov 2023, 08:53 AM
Vermillion_Hawk: Then again, Fatshark is unlikely to declare bankruptcy in January, unlike another developer I could name...
19 Nov 2023, 17:27 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: Darktide dropped a juicy anniversary update with a whole new environment, one mission so far with more forthcoming, and some new stuff and fixes. For FREE.
19 Nov 2023, 17:27 PM
SkysTheLimit: For that price it should be 1 BG for each faction. Minimum. Combine that with only 1 new map in the next update... It's almost insulting lol
18 Nov 2023, 04:12 AM
OKSpitfire: Agree. Though at least it's possible to get it from grinding that shop currency, I forget it's name
17 Nov 2023, 13:29 PM
Lady Xenarra: Reduce the price a little and I think the DLC would be a lot more palatable.
17 Nov 2023, 12:55 PM
Rosbone: With the polished new look and maybe fixing the soft lock in the campaign, maybe people can at least recommend it now??? Asking for a friend.
17 Nov 2023, 12:29 PM
Rosbone: THis looks pretty underwhelming for sure :guyokay:
17 Nov 2023, 12:27 PM
PatFenis: The DLC is a joke, besides the 2 BGs, you get 4 incomplete sets of skins. I dont get what their idea is with the skins. The update on the otherhand is suprisingly ample compared to all the other lackluster updates before.
17 Nov 2023, 12:20 PM
OKSpitfire: True
17 Nov 2023, 12:07 PM
Katitof: "a start", not giving new bg to each faction looks really bad imo
17 Nov 2023, 11:35 AM
OKSpitfire: Hoped for more than just 2 new battlegroups but it's a start at least, pretty positive stuff.
17 Nov 2023, 11:03 AM
aerafield: At least all of the content is buyable with merits from the ingame challenges. CoH2's DLC commanders until 2016 were a giga overpowered pay2win system available on steam only
17 Nov 2023, 01:12 AM
donofsandiego: @Hannibal it's the worst price in Turkish gaming history at least
17 Nov 2023, 00:27 AM
Hannibal: it's not the worst price in gaming history, but definitly on the too high side. won't reflect well on future DLCs, and probably not help too much to regain traction for the whole game either
16 Nov 2023, 23:58 PM
Hannibal: @aerafield that's the issue though: CoH2 does not set a good baseline, the monetization is pretty atrocious. Even then a fully new faction currently costs 13 Euros. AoE4 has a much more content rich DLC for similar cost.
16 Nov 2023, 23:56 PM
ShadowLinkX37: @Scotieone send relic an email using the report guidelines. https://companyofheroes.vanillacommunities.com/discussion/246442/player-reporting-guidelines
16 Nov 2023, 22:22 PM
Scotieone: aerafield I got photos and trying to upload them into trending news. Anything can be hacked in this game
16 Nov 2023, 21:04 PM
aerafield: @Scotieone it's a bannable exploit
16 Nov 2023, 20:55 PM
Scotieone: Hello, how it is possible to play as soviet with US commander? Normal 2v2 AT?
16 Nov 2023, 20:41 PM
aerafield: @Hannibal it's not really a good deal but considering a coh2 commander was $4, then charging $17 for 2 MP BGs, 1 SP BG and a skin pack, it's not too crazy
16 Nov 2023, 20:40 PM
PatFenis: I guess the main selling point is the SP battle group (lol) and Skins. Im not planing on buying this DLC if I can grind the BGs myself.
16 Nov 2023, 20:32 PM
Hannibal: They want 17 Dollars for two battlegroups? Wtf
16 Nov 2023, 20:27 PM
Vermillion_Hawk: I remember when they released a bunch of new Elites from cut content for Dawn of War 3 - they didn't have the audacity to charge for it back then.
16 Nov 2023, 19:52 PM
aerafield: I say if SEGA isn't pulling the plug and CoH3 is getting all that juicy new content fast & consistently now that Relic's focus can shift from "fix the core game" to "add new content", there is good hope
16 Nov 2023, 19:51 PM
PatFenis: *thats the usual..
16 Nov 2023, 19:50 PM
PatFenis: In the end he premium editions are just 'promises' of cool DLC which usually isnt if you look at it historically
16 Nov 2023, 19:49 PM
PatFenis: looking through the perspective of just the update and ignoreing DLC locked content, I think its very promisisng. But the content of the DLC is kind of laughable. But that the usualy with DLC gamepass preoder stuffs.
16 Nov 2023, 19:48 PM
aerafield: you can buy this DLC for $17 on steam or buy each BG with 10k merit IIRC
16 Nov 2023, 19:45 PM
PatFenis: did they mention if the battlegroups are actually locked behind a DLC paywall, or are we able to just buy the BGs with merit in the store?
16 Nov 2023, 19:43 PM
aerafield: @PatFenis I think/hope they're holding back on new content because every premium edition buyer gets it for free. And they're saving the actual new content with 30+ new units for DLCs that everyone has to pay for to make more money
16 Nov 2023, 19:38 PM
Smartie: Hope that Relic can release more battlegroups after the game is finally fixed with 1.4
16 Nov 2023, 19:35 PM
Smartie: The 1.4 update is looking really good! Content pack is c-.
16 Nov 2023, 19:35 PM
PatFenis: holding back incase shit backfires and want to turn a quick buck with a half assed dlc and then piss off?
16 Nov 2023, 19:13 PM
aerafield: FFS they're fully implemented with voicelines and everything since FEBRUARY, they could have made so many more cool BGs out of that, especially for teamgames. But now we only get two wtf
16 Nov 2023, 19:05 PM
aerafield: Very big step into the right direction, but the amount of new content is very underwhelming. Where is the Archer, the Nashorn, the Croc? Where are the 20 other secret units in the files?
16 Nov 2023, 19:04 PM
PatFenis: This actually looks promising.
16 Nov 2023, 18:21 PM
PatFenis: ambient occlusion being reowrked? isnt that something rosbone was raving on about?
16 Nov 2023, 18:11 PM
PatFenis: Lets see how whelming this will get.

aerafield: 1.4 patch stream okayeg https://www.twitch.tv/companyofheroes
16 Nov 2023, 18:04 PM
Katitof: Age of Sigmar isn't really worth it, at that kind of price point it is very underwhelming
15 Nov 2023, 15:47 PM
OKSpitfire: I see that PC Gamer really did not think much of Age of Sigmar... just one person's opinion though I guess.
15 Nov 2023, 15:27 PM
PatFenis: Carl*
14 Nov 2023, 20:53 PM

12 Nov 2023, 09:20 AM
Rosbone: tbf I dont think the punishment is harsh. Like 48 hrs??? It is more a complaint of how does Relic communicate with players? They need something better than "You are banned". Anyway, Coh3 is here so we dont have to worry about it anymore... crosses fingers
12 Nov 2023, 06:03 AM
Rosbone: I have personally seen people do it on accident. And in the moment you dont think "Can I be banned?" YOu just call stuff in ti laugh with your friends like "Dude! I have a croc LUL". BANNED FU Consumer were too lazy to fix stuff.\
12 Nov 2023, 05:02 AM
aerafield: Tbf using wrong commanders by accident was nearly impossible, and they only banned if you actually exploited it ingame, as in actually using the doc and calling in Rangers or Crocodile as OKW etc
12 Nov 2023, 02:56 AM
Rosbone: Must be nice being completely detached from reality. I wish I worked at Relic.
12 Nov 2023, 01:52 AM
Rosbone: *Busy. Just like not fixing the commander expoit. Instead they just blindly ban people for it. Genius level work being done at Relic. WTF my game bugged and I have the wrong commander.... BANNED
12 Nov 2023, 01:50 AM
Rosbone: Yes, Coh2 MM is the whole and complete ass. Worst MM of all time bar none. but Relic could not be bothered to fix it, they were buy coding up a skin store for Coh3 :snfPeter:
12 Nov 2023, 01:48 AM

10 Nov 2023, 12:08 PM
OKSpitfire: It could be pretty obnoxious in 2. I'd just like more models to reliably die in 3.
10 Nov 2023, 12:06 PM
maritn: IMO arty lethality is the worst part of CoH2
10 Nov 2023, 11:02 AM
maritn: (that was in response to dirty finisher)
10 Nov 2023, 10:59 AM
maritn: By that logic we'd also have to remove health bars, especially from all vehicles. Just bounce or crit.
10 Nov 2023, 10:58 AM
OKSpitfire: Would be nice if artillery was a little bit more lethal across the board really, most of it only seems to do spread out health damage.
10 Nov 2023, 09:04 AM
OKSpitfire: Hadn't really thought about it like that. I suppose that would make sense though, yes.
10 Nov 2023, 09:03 AM
PatFenis: its weird how, from what I hear, coh3 is more forgiving with TTK but is way more unforgiving for losing VP control going completly opposite from coh2. Wouldnt be a faster TTK more logical given faster paced games?
10 Nov 2023, 08:54 AM
PatFenis: Just popped into my mind, havent really thought about it. Ofc. its dumb to isolate units in such a way, also I havent played coh3 since april.
10 Nov 2023, 08:52 AM
PatFenis: If the artillery is model limited, doesnt make it artillery counter-productive given the faster VP bleed? As you cant quickly, in a vacume, get rid of infantry squads contesting or caping your vp?
10 Nov 2023, 08:51 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: The lack of wipe potential from indirect fire is promoting monkey gameplay like COH2 OKW. Minus theres no katty to punish it. Enjoy though :D
10 Nov 2023, 04:31 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Ive seen clips. Its mostly health damage with minimal model loss. So your not bleeding your opponent. Just buying time when a squad has to heal? The unit is worthless at that point. Just blob, and guess what if it looks like its going to hit. Just press T
10 Nov 2023, 04:29 AM
aerafield: More like 2/5 living. But hey, if you are fine with and feeling outplayed when a LeFh shell randomly scattered all the way across the map into your clumped vet 3 Guard squad behind cover and they all die instantly, all power to you
10 Nov 2023, 02:28 AM
GachiGasm: yeah because it require such skill to build a unit, click in a fow and pray to RNG jesus. Unless all arty is a skill shot unit like zu fuzz or katy vet 1, CoH2 style arty can burn in hell
10 Nov 2023, 02:25 AM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Historically artillery has been the main source of casualties. Having model caps for artillery is LOL. Nothing better then watching an enemy squad eat a 150mm shell and 3/4 living. If artillery is going to stay model capped its borderline a waste.
10 Nov 2023, 01:50 AM
aerafield: Eh, I know there's people who like that sort of matches but the long stalemates and terminator arty certainly isn't what made CoH2 successful imo, CoH1 didnt have that either
10 Nov 2023, 00:57 AM
Rosbone: And stop calling me Shirley.
10 Nov 2023, 00:57 AM
Rosbone: Do you promise :hyper:
10 Nov 2023, 00:56 AM
aerafield: @Rosbone shirley by fall 2024 there will be enough heavy tanks in the game :romeoPro::romeoPro:
10 Nov 2023, 00:54 AM
Rosbone: Because you just described why 95% of players play the game.
10 Nov 2023, 00:53 AM
aerafield: Fortunately in CoH3 Relic understood that artillery shouldn't perform like absolute terminators just because you clicked an ability intp the FoW and were a bit lucky, all artillery pieces have a model-cap per squad so they can't oneshot wipe full HP squads
10 Nov 2023, 00:52 AM
Rosbone: @aerafield All I hear from you is your late game comments is you dont like playing Coh. :romeoPro:
10 Nov 2023, 00:52 AM
aerafield: As much as I don't really like CoH3's medium spam meta, I certainly will never miss these boring ass TD vs superheavy stalemates or getting carpet-bombed by rocket artillery for an hour straight around one VP in CoH2
10 Nov 2023, 00:47 AM
aerafield: More TD spam with rocket arty, exactly what CoH2 needs in teamgames :foreveralone:
10 Nov 2023, 00:44 AM
Duffman: Surely the code can handle it :foreveralone:
10 Nov 2023, 00:36 AM
Duffman: Heavy tanks could have had a damage modifier from TD's like instead of 160dmg it does 240. And then it can still do 160 vs mediums B-)
10 Nov 2023, 00:32 AM

aerafield: How do you buff TDs against superheavies but not against mediums? Please with very good explanation
10 Nov 2023, 00:25 AM

Hannibal: I've seen fixed hotkeys in multiple games and making them customizable as a "future feature". Do they all hard code hot keys into their games so that they actually need to sift through all of their code again to change it?
09 Nov 2023, 10:06 AM
Hannibal: Regarding the hotkey point in the reddit post: Why is it so hard to add custom hot keys? Shouldn't it be just an "if key event X, then look up the effect that has been bound to it in the settings"?

Vermillion_Hawk: The King Tiger was actually pretty fast... it just was engineered so poorly in such terrible conditions that it would break down pretty constantly anyways.
09 Nov 2023, 01:53 AM
aerafield: which ultimately resulted in bold & unsuccessful experiments like superheavy tanks
09 Nov 2023, 01:44 AM
aerafield: The germans were well aware that "many (medium) tanks" is better than "few heavy tanks", the problem is they neither had the personnel nor the oil for a full medium tank army like the USA or Soviet Union in the 2nd half of the war
09 Nov 2023, 01:44 AM
GenMe: in reality a T34-85 85mm/L52 (D-5T) could one shot it in the side armour at 2000 meters with AP rounds
09 Nov 2023, 01:25 AM
GenMe: The KT was such a rare tank in WW2, it also did really badly, being late in the war most the tanks fielded could beat it anyway, It was still vulnerable to side hits having only 3 inches there, it was also so slow it was an easy target
09 Nov 2023, 01:23 AM
aerafield: The Tiger in CoH3 shows how it needs to be done: Very powerful unit but without seemingly infinite frontal armor, so strong TDs are not necessary in the game
09 Nov 2023, 00:04 AM
aerafield: The "superheavies" really messed up the gameplay in CoH2 so badly. TDs had to be buffed so hard that they rendered mediums or normal heavies utterly useless and fighting superheavies with anything else than TDs was usually frustrating af
09 Nov 2023, 00:02 AM
aerafield: There won't be much screaming if they implement this unit in a good way: Give it a lot of HP but not again obnoxiously high armor value where more than half the shots bounce all the time, that was so frustrating in CoH2.
09 Nov 2023, 00:01 AM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Are you sure you can handle the screaming if they added the KT to the game?
08 Nov 2023, 23:45 PM
aerafield: Ok but abandon got replaced by the much healthier vehicle recovery mechanic, they just need to add it to all factions. And maingun crits were a big reason why CoH2 developed this meta of "slowly turtle forward, never take any risk"
08 Nov 2023, 23:41 PM

aerafield: If they actually added WAY more units like Archer, Nashorn, Croc (all of them are already in the files), Pershing, KT etc it'd make teamgames so much more better. This medium spam actually made me wanna stop playing for a bit
08 Nov 2023, 21:30 PM
aerafield: ok jk, I agree with many points. One massive thing that was totally missed imo is the lack of premium medium or heavy tanks in CoH3. This medium tank spam across the board in CoH3's lategame feels so incredibly unnatural & unsatisfying in teamgames

Soheil: Hi guys , is there any site like this coh2 for new coh 3 ?

Rocket: Well playing okw always took 0 iq due to years and years of cries to make sure they were completely redesigned to have the best of everything, literally the only thing they never got was a sniper and im surprised Relic didnt give them that too

Rosbone: I have seen 'leaked' footage of this in code name PeePee Tape.

donofsandiego: We're putting a tentative release date of December for Operation Golden Shower, aimed at addressing players' concerns about glitches in weather effects seemingly always raining directly towards the camera
03 Nov 2023, 08:58 AM
aerafield: And if you're playing OKW I can just recommend to everyone to not be afraid of moving your vetoes from all the big & open maps to all the degenerate 3-lane campfests instead :) OKW simply doesn't work well on these 0 IQ maps
03 Nov 2023, 02:03 AM
aerafield: That's always been the case though, in first 5min you have to sit there and wait as OKW if the enemy just sits there with MG in a 3-lane camp map. Just because flawed faction design leads to early snozefest doesnt mean the faction is on life support though
03 Nov 2023, 02:00 AM
Lady Xenarra: @aerafield Is this during 2020 or another year? 2020 was when you were DoA against double MG openers and your smoke took 20s to deploy
03 Nov 2023, 01:50 AM
aerafield: @Lady Xenarra you also told us that CoH2's OKW is on life support since years in teamgames, which was far from the truth :snfPeter:
03 Nov 2023, 00:36 AM
Lady Xenarra: WM on life support right now :S
03 Nov 2023, 00:13 AM
Willy Pete: Lol yup. Thats prob when they'll adress the new surge of bugsplats too :clap:
02 Nov 2023, 17:34 PM
DIRTY_FINISHER: Operation golden dragon will address weapon profiles. Please stay tuned. ETA Sept. 2024
