Thread: Fixed positions is automatch30 Oct 2014, 18:15 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2014, 12:31 PMpigsoup that's good point. but tbh, many maps are just blatantly/fairly one sided no matter the faction. and the fact that one faction gets that side all the time isn't far That's what it seems like to me also. So they either need to randomize spawns again, or (better yet) fix the maps. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Post patch unit performance observations30 Oct 2014, 18:03 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2014, 17:55 PMraw Early game is a little less ridiculous than Fisherprice's My First RTS now but it's still the case that the german player has already won at minute zero and it's solely your majestic skill playing ally that allows you to turn the game around and win against all odds. I didn't post this as a balance thread. It's not in the balance section. Pls don't derail kthx In: COH2 Gameplay

Are some of you saying you've never had your infantry squad instantly destroyed by a panzerIV? It's a good tank. I don't play that much, but I've never had a p4 wipe a full conscript squad before, in 1 shot ISU style. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Post patch unit performance observations30 Oct 2014, 14:41 PM Played a few games last night after the patch and hotfix. Couple of things I noticed right off the bat: My panzer 4 was wiping squads LIKE CRAZY. It one shot a full 6 man con squad, then a 5 man mortar squad. This might be because models are bunching up more? Either way, not good man, not good. OKW flak halftrack is just as insane as in the beta. One full burst and full health rifleman squad is wiped. Again, not good. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Interview Greg Wilson about October Patch28 Oct 2014, 22:22 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Oct 2014, 21:58 PMBulgakov Because you're a nobody who spends his days finding strats that spoil the game experience or making childish gifs? Nobody of importance will ever mention you. And this is why this forum needs an ignore feature. Also, the irony of that signature never gets old. In: Lobby

Thread: Interview Greg Wilson about October Patch28 Oct 2014, 21:33 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Oct 2014, 21:21 PMBananenheld since u seem to have knowledge about the subject (which i lack), why cant the system just revert the commands? simplefied: command 1 command 2 command 3 rewind: command 3 command 2 command 1 Game engine doesn't work like that. You can fire a gun, but you can't "unfire" a gun. In some ways, game replays resemble video compression algorithms. In video compression algorithms, they store transformation vectors (movement, rotation, size change), and then "play" those much like the commands in a game replay. In order to have rewind/skip ahead working in compressed video, the video file will have periodic "key frames", where the full video frame is stored. This would be equivalent to storing the full, current state of the game, rather than just commands. When skipping to a different portion of the video, it finds the most recent key frame, performs all the transformations from that point until the point you asked it to skip to. I'm guessing coh2 doesn't have key frames (aside from the beginning of the game being in effect the staring key frame), so skipping is impossible without replaying from everything from the beginning. Adding key frames is a large undertaking, hence it's not there. It's not a trivial task. In: Lobby
Thread: Let me clear up some things about Relic and AA24 Oct 2014, 14:32 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Oct 2014, 03:10 AMNapalm I would ask the community to support Relic. Consider pre-ordering AA as a sign of that support. If there's one thing I've learned in my 20 years of gaming (holy shit I'm 30), it's that you never preorder. Wait for that shit to come out. Find out if it's broken or not. Then, if you still want it, buy it. In: Lobby
Thread: Beta performance23 Oct 2014, 16:39 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Oct 2014, 15:55 PMUnshavenbackman No beta doesnt run better. You know performance varies with hardware and drivers, right? Or do you think your experience is the only true experience? Beta performance is about the same for me as the regular game. In: COH2 Gameplay
