Hi,

I don't like CoH2 in its current state due to responsiveness and lag issues and i am tired of trying to find a match in CoH1 for a good couple of hours. So while either of those games hopefully gets fixed i am thinking of trying something else. Can anyone advise a good CoH-like RTS game? Not necessarily WW2-themed, just good in the sense of interesting gameplay mechanics, decision making, etc.

because we already have about 3 of those just on the frontpage. can't we just have one big "GRRR RELIC, CoH2 sucks and so do you!!" topic, where everyone can whine to heart's content?

I never said it sucks and i am not whining. If i don't have much fun with CoH2 it's my problem and i am sure not going to whine or bash Relic. I just want to play a different RTS and i am asking for advise from people who like the same RTS game that i do. So let's just get back to the topic.

Game became a bit more responsive, yes. It's the unstable performance and really long black screen times before the start of the game that make it not fun for me. But i am sure it will be fixed in the future.

SHOUT IT OUT!

Rosbone: So it was a systemic failure across multiple disciplines and check points.
Today, 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.
Today, 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.
Today, 04:07 AM
theekvn: + 33% dmg rear hit was best deal ever.
Today, 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
Today, 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 ?.
Today, 03:54 AM
theekvn: you rather go 76 to unity Whizbang 2.0 or go home.
Today, 03:52 AM
theekvn: also US tier 4 is 145f and Sherman pen 140 nerf is too much.
Today, 03:52 AM
theekvn: Whizbang lock behind CP, meanwhile stuka is techtree progress
Today, 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.
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....
Last Thursday, 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?
Last Thursday, 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?
Last Thursday, 12:13 PM
OKSpitfire: A powerful, doctrinal unit that outperforms stock stuff? Colour me shocked! :P
Last Thursday, 10:49 AM
Willy Pete: Cool you wanna lose your stock lategame arty too then?
Last Thursday, 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:

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.

Soheil: Coh2 is dead , full of map hackers , and lelic knows that but ...
