Hello everyone,

after having so many News about the CoH 2 beta, the old beta from 2.700 still seems to be running (the one from August). In case you don't know which one I mean, he'res the quote from Noun on that Topic:


Company of Heroes Update Beta

07-29-2014, 02:29 AM




We are working on a new update to the original Company of Heroes, and are releasing the update as a beta to allow CoH players to test the changes before it goes live into the main game.

This update includes:

•A fix for Ghost Games
•Account Creation - like in CoH2
•Offline Mode

To join the beta:
•Right Click "Company of Heroes (New Steam Version)
•Select "Properties"
•Select the "Betas" tab from the pop-up menu
•Select "Beta -" from the drop down menu
•Close the pop-up menu

The game will then update to the beta version.

Please provide feedback and bug reports in this thread.

Thanks!

From what I could see the Feedback has been quite.... low. Maybe we can help by organizing games via steam or so so we can provide more Feedback for relic to avoid them Publishing another update which fixes 2 issues but creates 20 new ones (like they did with the last patches).

Greetings

What is there really to test? Like, what am I supposed to do when in the beta? Can I play with those without it? I'm guessing not?

"•A fix for Ghost Games
•Account Creation - like in CoH2
•Offline Mode"

I would gladly give some time to a beta test, which is saying something about my love for this game since I don't have much free time or much time to play. But frankly those aren't game breaking things for me. The only one that is remotely an issue (and not a big one) are the ghost games.

Now if they said they were fixing some of the broken bits, I would be all over it. Even if it was as little as fixing the m10 misfire bug.

TL;DR version - There isn't much interest in the Beta because these bugs aren't a big deal for most active players.

Ofcourse the stuff is minor, and not exactly gamebreaking. But, the thing is:

As Long as there's no/Little Feedback chances are that relic just pushes out a patch which will fuck the game up once more. That's why I say "let's test"..

That´s what i tought. Are your sure Relic still expects feedback? Don´t get me wrong, there was a lot. But not in the forum. Neiki send a long list with bugs and issues to Hardi.

Ofc it did, but still there's low interaction/activity. And since everybody and his mother is talking about CoH 2 beta I thought it might be worth a try to notify People that this CoH beta is still active and may be used for Feedback.

So, I dont own the game on my steam account anymore but the owner still shares the right to play his games with me so i should be able to play the beta version right? after downloading it, its nothing there i cant play it, its just says "buy" instead of "play". He can play the beta np. Im aware of the fact that only the owner of the game should play it, but wondering what role is sharing games for friends playing in that? as far as i see its not working.

The beta doesn't appeal one bit. There is very little point in playing it. If it had something Elite Mod-ish (remove the observer mode part). Then there would be a real incentive. At this point I don't believe it matters anyways. The player base has become so small.

OMG mod seems to be the only version of this game where there is competitiveness left. And it was not even designed to be competitive :p

@Rocky Join the coh 2v2 tourney and lets see how competitive you are (;

@Beta - doesnt fix and major issues, so whats the point of playing it. Bring back Basic Match levels (keeps the low-midgame players entertained so they eventually might get better) and give us more maps in automatch (so its not the same every game) and all is fine. I dont expect balance patches at this point, but I would like to see a little more than what this Beta is offering.

- Well i'd love too but my pc is broken atm, and this old laptop i'm on is just disgracing me. If tournament is closer than 2 weeks (hope got my pc back by then) away I won't be able to play.

- They literally could just copy elite mod into that and people would have fun with it's fresh breath of air superior gameplay and bugfixing.
