Merging Coh2 and Coh 3 for a better game.

It's not a big job as both game are the same nearly and many asset are compatible. Better to have a bigger game then 2 nearly empty game.

You do realize that both games use completely different engines, right? There is no such possibility like "Copy content from CoH2 and paste it in CoH3". Everything needs to be re-built from scratch

Not the icons mate.

But yes, merging games is impossible. Perhaps you could get away with much faster production time editing and retexturing some tank models, at the same time re-mastering the old maps from existing CoH3 environmental assets rather than rebuilding precise building/terrain details as they were in CoH2 maps.

Right now, the content is a joke, and if there is a choice between two remastered CoH2 units/maps, versus one new CoH3 asset from scratch: I take the first option until CoH3 reaches half the content of CoH2.

Reuse audio, icons, base-models, gameplay role/design of the Sturmtiger. Bring it to the CoH3. It would have been fine if Relic weren't laggards with launch content, but we are at the position where the team is scounting for the 4vs4 map, maybe summer you will get some actual game DLC, yet the quality of it might be botched anyway.

We are almost three months in, there is 0 new content. Skins or some bug-fixes aren't content.

Merge both game into [COH World] then sell content patch etc. For me its already the same game, just not compatible yet and not as good as the previous one. We cannot afford to split the player base. @relic

Meh. It's not really that deep of a split to warrant it. Around 2k players left coh2 and plus an extra 500 new players are all that CoH 3 is pulling in. CoH 2 is pretty much doing exactly the same as it was prior to CoH 3.

All relic has to do is stop wanking off and actually put some elbow grease and content into CoH 3 and the switch will either occur or not occur naturally.

So how do we do that? We merge them using hadron collider?
We are on a budget and just put it at the front of 2 trucks and crush them together?

We just melt them and mold them into one?

Or we just crack them both into a bowl, scramble them and heat them up until firm on a pan?

I did not and do not buy COH3 but would buy Coh2.5. It had to have everything that COH2 already has, and just add a few things, but few, COH2 is almost perfect now, COH3 couldn't get me hooked for an hour. (On the Demos) Really this Woke generation doesn't know how to make games.

Oh fuck that. Nobody would give a shit about a remastered CoH2 on the same old shitty engine. Ehh, nobody apart from the skeleton crew that keeps playing CoH2 for hours every day and will do so for the next 20 years.
