I mostly use edge scroll and arrow keys which is not the best at all but the way I'm used to.

I set my arrow key to wasd. It really speeds up my ability to give commands. Unfortunately it also means i cant type anything to other players.

minimap+hotkeys_ double click on the unit top right.
Then when I have to scroll I use the middle mouse scroll button. easiest to access

Minimap + Tac + Edge scroll.

Tacmap for exact position. Minimap for general position. Edge for places next door.

+1, a very high percentage of the good players use this

even though they probably use WASD instead of arrow keys

In my cases the best way is none of them (I´m using autohotkeys so I´ve mapped arrow keys with "asdw" keys.

I suffered this issue too, until I´ve set in my autohotkey script a key to turn-off/turn-on my script, so when I need to send a message, I press that key, then my script stop working, then I write & send the message, then I hit again that key so my script start working again....

I´m not at home now, if other mates don´t put here their script with this function, before I arrive home this evening, I´ll post it here mine, just in case it helps you.

Thanks that would really help.

How do you solve the hotkey issue? (especially with grid keys)

Edge scroll, click on minimap, hotkeys to units.

I use tacmap + edgescroll. I would like to use tacmap + middlemousescroll, but its damn hard to rearrange as I am not used to it.

But the best method to scroll I think is to use hotkeys (like Siberian) as the tacmap is a bit crowded.

sorry Kamk, I don´t know about that hotkey issue....I´m not sure even if I have set "in game" to gridkeys or classsical layout (I think game offers two differents keys layout, grid key and other "classical" or something like this).

anyway, when I started using autohotkeys, I got some help from COH2.org, this is the thread:


http://www.coh2.org/topic/26059/we-need-custom-hotkey/page/1#post_id237149


and, this is how looks like my script:

Code

;
; AutoHotkey Version: 1.x
; Language: English
; Platform: Win9x/NT
; Author: A.N.Other <myemail@nowhere.com>
;
; Script Function:
; Template script (you can customize this template by editing "ShellNew\Template.ahk" in your Windows folder)
;

#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

^!n::
#IfWinActive, Company Of Heroes
w::up
a::left
s::down
d::right
q::a
g::Numpad0
f::n
e::u
capslock::suspend
Return



so in my case, capslock is the key I´m using to switch on-off my script, so I can send messages without problems.

So you're not using hotkeys at all?

Because WASD would be also rather important hotkeys, that's why i wonder how one would solve this issue :/

I'm using arrow keys remapped to WASD and grid layout, I also have the W key on E (for STOP) and the E key on Q (for attack ground). all the other keys lost I don't feel pressed often enough to need remapping. I also have attack ground on mousewheel click.

Double-tap with hotkey on the units or spacebar to get me to the place where something is wrong.

Rosbone: Knowing how companies work, I imagine a new hire making the menus. The API they are using is complicated and things were hard to figure out. But at some point QA or management should have addressed these things. Usually within 6 months of starting.

Rosbone: @theekvn I dont hate Coh3 or Relic. I just dont understand how you work on Coh3 for like 7 years and the menu system is worse than if a Programming 101 student made it. Feel free to explain it to me.

KoRneY: @aerafield It's possible that it is underpriced for what it is capable of now, no need to go full retard and take it immediately as a massive problem. It costs 60 more MP than a pz.3 and in 2v2 the barrage can be quite strong.
Last Friday, 19:14 PM
OKSpitfire: I do like that they made the Stuka more expensive instead of nerfing it into the ground though. Found it pretty unsatisfying to use before that buff a while back....
06 Mar 2025, 16:35 PM
aerafield: USF already is by far the shittiest faction in terms of countering blobbing and turtling, now they supposedly have one overtuned tool locked behind a BG and it's immediately a massive problem?
06 Mar 2025, 13:33 PM
Lady Xenarra: I think post-2.0 Whizbang buffs, the price is too low esp since the Stuka got nerfed in cost too. Speaking of which, how exactly is one supposed to successfully dive this Sherman in disguise? Med tank spam running into SSFs?

Rosbone: It is also hard to expect Relic to help Coh2 when they cant even make working menus in Coh3 yet, 2 years after release and at full price+ for DLCs. Thats like asking a fish to do calculus.
04 Mar 2025, 02:58 AM
Rosbone: But this last patch has made good progress for grabbing players. All we can hope is Coh3 gets to Coh2s quality level before everyone abandons the franchise. Its Relic so they will completely f*%k it up as usual. But its a hope/cope.
04 Mar 2025, 02:55 AM
Rosbone: Relic wants Coh2 to fail so players will migrate to Coh3. It is hard to blame them since Coh3 sucks so bad. It needs all the help it can get.
