Thread: Why don't you take part in tournaments?9 Feb 2014, 15:01 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Feb 2014, 14:59 PMKatitof CoH series and DoW2 were always about comebacks. Its not spamcraft, where you loose one barracks or 5 more units and loose all game because of it. You obviously never got passed silver in sc2. In: Lobby
Thread: Why don't you take part in tournaments?9 Feb 2014, 14:55 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Feb 2014, 14:22 PMsnekasan Like most people I'd like to chime in a little. The worst thing is the feeling of helplessness that some people have mentioned. The game functions in a way that makes it feel like regardless of how good I play, I'm just gonna lose anyways in the end. This!!! The comeback mechanic is way too much! So often you can have the advantage and have majority of the map for a long time then.. boom a lucky mortar hit or two and now its even.. maybe your even behind.. your 15 min of brilliant play down the drain.. not really motivates you to improve your play. yes RNG was in coh1 too but not at this level.

Thread: Revitalizing the COH2 community?9 Feb 2014, 14:16 PM I never understood why relic always seem to put most of their budget on singelplayer stuff.. i have never heard anyone buy company of heroes or recommend it to anyone for its singelplayer. Singelplayer is okay.. pretty fun but nothing that you stick around with and wait for expansions. Multiplayer is where relic RTS games always shines and relic barely supports it. Just enough to prevent a riot. I mean with some good patching, optimization and a good expansion this game could easily have 30k+ concurrent players playing everyday. Then you create som kickass skinns and profit! In: Lobby
Thread: AmiPolizeiFunk9 Feb 2014, 13:26 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Feb 2014, 12:44 PMLynskey I think the discussion around #AmiGate is a really healthy thing at the moment. One of the things that led to the SC2 bubble bursting was this insipid "Hooray For Everything" attitude, where senior community figures railed against anything that wasn't positive cheerleading. What it led to was a situation where every house was built on sand and no-one called out bad ideas for what they were, or if they did they were ignored or chastised as long as the money kept coming in. It wasn't healthy. It's far better to have problems out in the open. +1000 I was really worried in sc2 already in beta about some of its design decisions and noone ever dared to complain about anything. Worst part is there is still A LOT of people beliving sc2 is this perfect competative game and textbook example how to do a sequel. How a game that revolves around deathball ever can be a competative game i can never understand.. im sure if sc2 wasnt called starcraft noone would care about it. Its good that these highprofiles in coh community voice their true opinions, but i dont like the way they look at coh. Ami seemed to think coh's with its small commmunity its easy to be the "best" casters and get a following and take that following to an other game and use coh community as a springboard... not actually giving a fuck about the game and community really. That to me feels like he is twofaced and that yoink guy wasnt any better.. almost worse. I have no problems however if he feels the game is bad, its a good thing he speaks up about it. In: Fan Clubs
Thread: AmiPolizeiFunk9 Feb 2014, 04:34 AM Game got problem i think we all can agree on and there is no need to be hatin on ami for feeling that way. However it looks to me a bit naive to start a ambitous tournament to a small game community and a new one at that and expect there to be thousands of viewers. I mean look at day9 for example.. he had 100+ shows before it took off and did a show almost everyday. Most casters now seem to be leaving and the worst part is its like they see sc2 and lol casters and get jealous and thinks the grass is greener on the other side. The most successful sc2 casters casted broodwar for years (for free basicly) before they started sc2 beta casting and slowly built up viewer numbers but these coh2 caster seems to want success now.

Thread: AmiPolizeiFunk8 Feb 2014, 23:04 PM Imo ami fucked up but im tired of people totally stomps someone to the ground and back to square 1 after YEARS of work and dedication to a game and the community after they screw up once. Just a pity his true opinions had to come out this way, i think casters should be more honest about the game they cast and stop pretending its perfect and secretly they hate it. In: Fan Clubs
Thread: Why don't you take part in tournaments?8 Feb 2014, 22:03 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Feb 2014, 14:34 PMBasilone SC2 and Leauge have lots of new people winning because the esports scene is that big, not because the games are too easy. CoH2 strategy is easy mode compared to coh1 and even coh1 had a low skill ceiling compared to SC2. Top tier and high players lose to random people all the time, but SC2 players in diamond-GM probably never ever lose to someone in silver or gold. Then again, in sc2 you can win/lose with just a buildorder.. sc2 has very little micro.. if you fail on a strategic level your micro wont save you. BW has 10x higher skill ceiling than sc2.. in bw you could be behind in strategy but make up for it with godly micro.. not so much in sc2. In: Lobby
Thread: AmiPolizeiFunk8 Feb 2014, 21:44 PM Jump back to quoted post8 Feb 2014, 21:07 PMAmiPolizeiFunk I agree that it's a small pool, and you can count the shoutcasters of COH2 on two hands. Maybe one hand now that TFN has left. Compared to real esports games like LoL, Dota, Starcraft, yes, we're all shit. We don't have the production values, the practice, the pressure, the amount of events to work with, the OBS tools. So yeah, compared to the real e-sports scenes, we're all shit. Imo Tales of Heroes was up there with the best casters from sc2. Bridger is a natural talent. So a game doesnt have to be big and have a long history for its casters to be top notch... in fact most casters in sc2 and lol probably do it for the money while casters in coh do it because they just love the game and often it comes through when they cast.
