I aprove what has ben said before.
The skill level requiered for sc2 is way way higher than coh, and the APM requiered to keep up is much higher as well.
I used to play a lot when I had time(now i don't play anything) and it's quite hard, but everything's possible: i got to Masters in 3 months so you could as well.
Oh and no, SC2 doesn't have microtransitions and won't have them ^^ |
The fact that you can't re-assign hotkeys in a 2013 game blows my mind. |
I agree, and since I cancelled my pre-order I have no regrets. The game is PURE SHIT, whoever says otherwise is either desilusional or plays one game a week.
I am so very against DLC's, in any game. But I would have made an exception with CoH2, because you know, vCoH has been the game that I've played the most in my life. However, given the way Relic has been doing things, for example: no key features at lauch, such as spectator mode(I mean, cmon, it's 2013 Relic), no chat system equivalent to what it was in vCoH, casual gameplay.. etc etc, the game just lost my intereset and I'm mad as fuck everytime I think about it.
I am not gonna buy this game neither I'm gonna support it. Fuck you Relic. |
Ugh... in order to have a "big" e-sports scene in a game you need some requierements:
-Personalities and sick players. I think this is a green check for the CoH community.
-A decent/good game. vCOH does meet this requierement, CoH2 doesn't.
-Bigass player base. It would be debatable if CoH has a big enough playerbase or not. I think at one time it did for vCoH, but the techonology wasn't there just yet.
Conclusion? CoH2 has to live up to its successor, if not better. It has to live up to expectations. The way things are going so far don't make me feel like this is going too well, but we'll see. |
I just wanna say that I cancelled my preorder, and it truly annoys me to be forced to do that. CoH2, as it is, is a shit game, plain and simple. And it is taking the Activision approach(no real support to the game just mass DLC)which I hate so much and I think it has done/does a lot of damage to the gaming industry(not for their pockets, obv).
If CoH2 was playable I'd still go through the fuckin DLC thingy... but man, I seriously tried, I swear I tried, but I can't get around playing more than ~8 games straight, it just gets me bored and angry.
They already owe me a proper DoW2(fucking 60€ for 20h of play man), no more charity for a studio that has gone to shit.
Oh and to the one saying they "try new things"... not really, this is just a marketing technique. LOOK GUYS!!!! BLIZZARDS ERMAHGERD SO REALZZZZZZZZZZ SO GUD. These things actually just destroy the game itself for the non casual playerbase. But of course, money is everything in this world, so yep. And yes I do prefer the Blizzard approach, because, you know what? They actually change the game, BUT THE CORE REMAINS THE SAME, Broodwar and SC2 are very different games, but they do share the same ideas, the same mechanics...
Oh and btw saying "omg stop hating they are trying so hard blablabla..." won't solve anything, it will have the opposite effect, devs will feel so pleased of themselves "we ain't doing that bad yo!". Complaining might get us something. |
You're right, I hand't seen it up there... maybe if the UI wasn't so shitty I'd would be in a logical place.
And yes I'm pretty much talking about OF, ToV and CoHO. But you can also add DoW2 to that list, if anyone has played the original DoW he'd know why DoW2 is the most utter shit ever(maybe even worse than CoH1 expansions...) |
Prepare your pitchforks for what I'm gonna say now, and I truly hope I'm wrong in the end.
Relic has proven time and time again their incompetence, why do you guys suddenly belive they will listen to the community and actually do some work?
------E
Oh and one thing I haven't seen being mentioned: where is the count of killed infantary/tanks... a unit has killed? :/ |
Why did you start a thread attacking the developers and their game instead of making it helpful?
There's no hate on the OP, just the reality of things. And even if there was hate, it would still be okay, since there have been countless threads about how to improve the game and CONSTRUCTIVE threads, here and in the sega forums. They won't listen anyways, they are so pleased with their so fkkin good UI and shit, it's okay.
This is not the lollipop paradise, I hate people like you who defend devs to death even when they are doing a poor job, things must be said clear and straight. |
Agree, but I would put a lot more points as HUGE issues in there, like having a proper UI not the shit we have now... and so on. |
