ESL pumps are single-stage centrifugal pumps with connecting flanges according to international standards. All ESL pumps are equipped with mechanical shaft seal for maximum life and minimum friction loss.

ESL - Awesome!!! :bananadance:

Great job Kyle trying to get COH interested in this "underrated" MMORTS gem.

For those living in Europe (such as myself), those who sign up should get a beta key. Not sure about the rest of the world. But if you have trouble to get a beta key try G2A:
https://www.g2a.com/total-war-arena-beta-cd-key-global.html

For those who gonna watch the ESL event. Don't forget CA_Dogbert Community Coordinator for Total War: Arena is a former COH1 fan and pro player/manager for Team Dignitas.

3 years ago Dogbert said this about COH2 eSport;
“Company of heroes amazing if it comes back and it got any eSports potential. I’ll literally live on that game.”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtGb1IDHvKE
Go to 30:10 and hear Dogbert (when he was in Team Dignitas) positive comments on COH2
https://twitter.com/ca_dogbert
Team Dignitas with changes; farewell MrDogbert
http://team-dignitas.net/articles/news/Team-Dignitas/5414/Team-Dignitas-with-changes-farewell-MrDogbert-and-welcome-Brunion

As a long time MMORTS fan since 2003, I can say without a doubt that CA has created a new generation of MMO "arena" for PC which looks very promising for future IPs. Currently, there are at least 3 generations of MMO Arena's with eSport potential:

1) LoL & DOTA (Vainglory on mobile touchscreen)
The first generation MOBA/MMO Arena on PC which mix both PvE and PVP. Also, there is Vainglory. Mobile MOBA on touchscreen;
Can a mobile game be 'five times bigger' as an eSport than League of Legends?

"5 Marketing Tricks That League Of Legends Used To Build a Billion Dollar Business"
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/5-marketing-tricks-league-legends-used-build-billion-dollar-butkus

2) The Wargaming game developer and publisher of games such as "World of Tanks"
The second generation which focus primary on PvP, still evolving.
Since 2012, World of Tanks has been in the top10 of eSport earnings:
http://www.esportsearnings.com/history/2012/games

In World of Warships, Wargaming has started adopting MMORTS with the Carrier-based aircraft RTS:
"Carriers are The Most Interesting Gameplay I've Seen in A While"
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/140177-World-of-Warships-Carriers-Play-Like-an-RTS-In-The-Middle-of-an-Arena-Shooter

3) Total War: Arena (adopting the World of Tanks model)
The third generation which adds more RTS elements to the Arena. Controlling only three units.
IMO, two of the best forerunners for this; "World in Conflict" and some aspect of EvE Online (sandbox MMO-RPG/RTS). Ex-Westwood Studios devs (petroglyph, who made Grey Goo) also recently tried to get into this genre with "Victory Command" (cancelled) and Battle Battalions.

Several CA/Relic IPs would be great using the TW: Arena model:
A) COH: Modern Warfare
B) Halo Wars, ground or space (CA working on Microsoft's Halo IP)
C) Warhammer, ground or space.

Combine these 3 IPs and CA/Relic got the best of all worlds. COH/Total War combat realism, futuristic combat with Halo, lores of magic with Warhammer.

FYI; Battlefleet Gothic (Warhammer space RTS) looks awesome in UE4:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWteWul9cBE
490.305 views after only 2 months, not too shabby. Not even the Homeworld remastered series come close to this Warhammer space hype.

I sincerely hope Relic/CA are taking MMORTS Arena's seriously as that playstyle has good potential to attract casual players, the fastest growing gaming community. The primary reasons why these MMO eSport arena's got so popular was because they have a big appeal to casual players that just want a quick MMO match without building a big MMO character in WoW or EVE Online etc..Also MMOs are usually easier to monetize with subscription or microtransactions than classic RTS games. Another big MMO advantage is "word-of-mouth" marketing like LoL is so good at. Without a big marketing budget, several big MMOs came from humble beginnings and had a focus on positive "word-of-mouth" marketing.

Personal, during my 10 years in EvE Online I saw the same trend. The MMO only started to grow once the core game became playable for a casual player rather than just hardcore. For years now, CCP has been fighting an uphill battle to make it more casual player friendly. After the Homeworld era died many old Relic RTS fans moved onto EvE Online and during their prime lead popular teams/alliance such as Evolution/Band of Brothers

I'd love to get back into EvE Online. 6 years into the game and two trips to Iceland under my belt and I just do not have the time to dedicate to the game. It is basically a full time job. Don't under estimate the casual players....or you may lose them.

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes
01 Apr 2025, 02:36 AM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:
27 Mar 2025, 04:31 AM
Soheil: Coh2 still broken server ?
25 Mar 2025, 18:27 PM
Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific. :snfQuinn:.
24 Mar 2025, 02:46 AM
Nickbn: and again someone else replies. I mean come on guys. Give @adamírcz a chance
22 Mar 2025, 14:00 PM
Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
18 Mar 2025, 19:01 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.

Rosbone: #RelicModdedEchoChamber
16 Mar 2025, 17:54 PM
Rosbone: @Nickbn True except, the only people on the Relic Discord/Reddit/Steam are brain washed monkey zealots. They wont even understand what @adamírcz is talking about. Anyone else is banned.
16 Mar 2025, 17:54 PM
Nickbn: @adamírcz might be a better idea to voice this to relic directly than to voice it here, in a shoutbox of a nearly deade fansite #justsaying...
16 Mar 2025, 16:36 PM
webdesign-muenchen-w: @Rosbone it is sick
14 Mar 2025, 22:09 PM
aerafield: @adamírcz aren't the first two disconnects free every day?
14 Mar 2025, 19:26 PM
Rosbone: It is so unlike Relic to punish its fans and community.
14 Mar 2025, 12:07 PM
adamírcz: So, I just got a leaver penalty without even getting onto the loading screen because of the game disconnecting, bravo Relic
14 Mar 2025, 10:45 AM
Rosbone: It is an indicator of the very short sighted capitalist view that plagues any company where leadership does not understand the product.
13 Mar 2025, 20:00 PM
Rosbone: They dont care about Coh3 or Coh in general. They are just trying to grab cash by ripping off the small user base they have.
13 Mar 2025, 19:58 PM
Rosbone: Just making mistake after mistake after mistake.
13 Mar 2025, 19:57 PM
Rosbone: It is clear they crapped out an unfinished game. And are now barely supporting it as they make new smaller games. Coh3 is stillborn. It will be meh for at least another 2-4 years. Meaning they killed the whole franchise instead of growing it.
13 Mar 2025, 19:56 PM
Rosbone: For a thing they could fix in minutes. Literally minutes.
13 Mar 2025, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: If I did play coh3 and was mainly a skirmish player, I would be pissed and probably stop playing. And it has been like this since release. Why? I would not tell my friends to buy a game I am not even playing. Lost sales and angered users.
13 Mar 2025, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: I am just saddened how Relic keeps hurting themselves by not fixing 5 minute things like menus. Why anger users with stuff that could be fixed in minutes???
13 Mar 2025, 19:50 PM
Rosbone: I was wondering why people think I was raging. I think it was when I said "because coh3 sucks so bad". That was not my opinion. Just a general feel from top players/streamers. I dont play Coh3 and have NO opinion of it.
13 Mar 2025, 19:48 PM
OKSpitfire: You can rage as often as you like btw, you usually manage to make it pretty funny.
12 Mar 2025, 11:18 AM
Rosbone: So it was a systemic failure across multiple disciplines and check points.
12 Mar 2025, 04:30 AM
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.
12 Mar 2025, 04:29 AM
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.
12 Mar 2025, 04:07 AM
theekvn: + 33% dmg rear hit was best deal ever.
12 Mar 2025, 04:00 AM
theekvn: KT just need fuel debuf from 15% to 50%, Ele arc of fire- aim time improve and they are good to go
12 Mar 2025, 03:59 AM
theekvn: and please Rosbone,I know you hate Coh3 to the bone due to your drama with relic, Still, Can you give a proper point of view instead of raging ?.
12 Mar 2025, 03:54 AM
theekvn: you rather go 76 to unity Whizbang 2.0 or go home.
12 Mar 2025, 03:52 AM
theekvn: also US tier 4 is 145f and Sherman pen 140 nerf is too much.
12 Mar 2025, 03:52 AM
theekvn: Whizbang lock behind CP, meanwhile stuka is techtree progress
12 Mar 2025, 03:51 AM
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.
07 Mar 2025, 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?
06 Mar 2025, 12:13 PM
OKSpitfire: A powerful, doctrinal unit that outperforms stock stuff? Colour me shocked! :P
06 Mar 2025, 10:49 AM
Willy Pete: Cool you wanna lose your stock lategame arty too then?
06 Mar 2025, 03:20 AM
Lady Xenarra: WTB Whizzbang for DAK instead of Stuka, 5 fuel cheape, 60MP more expensive and next to impossible to dive. :rofl:
05 Mar 2025, 20:27 PM
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.
