Relic killing our game, lets save COH2 from Relic

I beg to disagree.

We're not talking here about UFOs, rockets or star trek or even star wars pansy cruisers, but actual flying temples of destruction!

Sure, tanks are fun, but its nothing in comparison to Emperor Battle cruiser

Dayum, looks nice so far, but it needs some more dakka

+1 coh2 is one of the best RTS games of all time, despite all the bugs and issues

CoH is definitely the best RTS I've ever played, and the only one that keeps me coming bacl. The only other RTS I've enjoyed as much as CoH is World in Conflict but that's dead.

Yes. That is assuming Maxims iAmoveAndWin meta, land mattress, 10X Cromwell meta, ded ostheer, shrecks, vet3 exterminators do not exist.

Get rid of them and I could agree with the OP.

Yep, CoH is keeping the genre alive, along with SC2. I think there was Planetary Annihilation that was hyped quite a bit, but i think it is dead now. Heck, i even gave money during the kickstarter, hoping it would rival Total Annihilation

It's a little disappointing that 20 years after Total Annihilation, it is still in some ways the pinnacle of RTS's. The options for unit behavior, control grouping, etc, etc are still better than anything out today. Having the campaign narrated by James Earl Jones rocked.

Indeed, it is the exact opposite of CoH in design (macro vs micro), but imo the best RTS of its time (and got overshadowed by starcraft, i honestly never understood why).

Don't know either. I've never understood why Starcraft had such legs, maybe spectators just get more out of watching micro.

The genre could be revived if developers stop trying to make "oldschool" rts-games.

I mean look at most of the games from the last years. In most of the marketing you will find that word : "oldschool"
In other cases they are trying to make money with old games, first example that I can think of is homeworld.

Surprise: IT DOESN´T WORK.
They sell a good amount of those at release and the games dry out in a few weeks/months.

Coh was the last game that introduced new mechanics to the genre that were enjoyable and right from the start felt good.
