Is it too late to get into this game?

I think it's time I tried some other factions. Ostheer just doesn't seem to fit my playstyle.


I would recommend USF, it's pretty straight forward and easy to learn.

USF is straightforward in terms of initial build of four rifles or so. Beyond that, I believe the tactics, game mechanics, flow and know your enemy stuff is just as much knowledge to cover as any of the armies.

Hi there, got the game 2 months ago and after beating the campaigns and doing some AI battles I decided to try playing some 1v1 because that's what I like to do in RTS games.

So far I'm not having a great time. Judging by how long it takes to find a game I'm guessing there's not many players left and the ones that did stick around are very good by now. They are wiping the floor with me. Apparently even after losing 4 games in a row the matchmaker thinks I'm a great player and serves me 60% WR opponents.

My faction of choice is Wehr and I can't even beat basic strats like rifle or conscript blobs. They somehow just overwhelm me even if I outplay them in the early game and manage to get a squad wipe.

Not sure how best to train for 1v1 apart from just getting hammered non-stop and trying to learn something. AI battles are pointless as I can beat the expert AI easily by now.

Am I too late to the COH 2 party? Thanks.

It's not too late to join obviously, the game is still active...

Just be warned that the community here is comprised of thundercunts galore. Probably even worse than Eve's deplorably toxic community. Players here will team up and beat you, then call you bitch and faggot while raping your base.

The silver side of this cloud, of course, is destroying their team and raping their base, while calling them thundercunts until they drop out of the match.

Up to you.

Bleh, this game is apparently way too complex for me. Despite my terrible stats I still get matched against people that roflstomp me. The same thing happens over and over again, I start out well, then the enemy gets back into the game through superior tactics and wins. My initial impression seems to hold: you either were here from the beginning or you're fodder.

P.S. the only thing you're missing is what unit to buy that directly counters whatever your opponent just chased you away with. Unit choice is important, it's a rock-paper-scissors game. You don't want to be fighting T34's with an Ostwind. E.g. if you see your opponent getting fuel, build an AT gun.

I feel your pain as I am new too but I approach MP by another method
first i stay for months watching live matches for ranked players and training with AI also reading guides checking unit stats then after feeling ready I start my MP journey
I played 4 ukf matches winning 3 losing 1 without any cancer tactics
and you are correct I always lose at first then win at end with new ostheer players I don't know how but it always like that they don't bring any armor then I pop out my Cromwell then follow another Cromwell then I completely destroy them and when they pop there armor it's too late
Note sorry for my english
