Technically impossible to view old replays?

I'm just curious.

I went away for a month or so and there are definitely some replays I missed, and with another patch having taken effect, there's a whole 'nother swathe of replays I shan't be watching, unfortunately. And I may get back into casting some if there is any interest, but the viewership went way down and it's pretty time-consuming to do.

Does anyone know if there are any games that manage to achieve this? Just curious.

Interestingly, there are hardcore COH casters who have actually went through the bother of installing patches one by one to cast replays. Definitely check out this guy: http://www.youtube.com/user/AECoH?feature=watch. I am astounded he's gone through the trouble of doing some of these for Youtube and he hasn't gotten nearly the views he deserves for doing so. I certainly got a kick out of watching a few of these and watching the meta and skill of players evolve, many are way before my time as a player.

Starcraft II allows you to watch older replays from older versions. CoH 2 doesn't, obviously, and the CoH 2 replay version switcher only works on replays from older patches with no gameplay changes. Unless you've got an offline backup of earlier versions of CoH 2 before Steam updated it, those old replays are lost to time.

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

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

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.

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.

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.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Soheil: Coh2 still broken server ?

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

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.
