• hey so how am i supposed to get my vcoh into steam?
  
  

I'm sick of people claiming SC2 is a simplistic or "blobby" game. The skill ceiling, mechanically and strategically, is so far above CoH that comparing the two is laughable. Say what you want about BW and SC2, but they are better balanced, have larger playerbases, and have more depth than COH has or likely ever will have. I vastly prefer CoH for a variety of reasons, but that doesn't lower the quality of Star Craft one bit.

The thing is, VCoh is still GREAT today. Starcraft 1 was (old but) ok-ish till the day SC2 came out.

SC2 was just almost a copy of SC1 with couple of new graphics. Very simple mechanics.


But VCoh has such well thought out GENIUS, BRILLIANT, BEAUTIFUL concepts of gameplay mechanics why would one want to change those drastically?

Ever since TOV (Or maybe even OF), Relic only has come up with a series of failed experiments. Dow series, Coho etc

I would love to see bigger and better designed COH2 base buildings.

During Alpha I found two major issues with buildings (without going into details): first one was the conjuction of two elements, size and design, that made buildings look all very similar and not distinctive/like they had a real role.
The second major issue was related to the approach Relic did to try giving buildings a reason to exist and to be positioned in a certain way: the fact you could garrison them. The problem was that the way windows were distributed and the number of the windows was quite bad, making house positioning for defensive purposes useless.

Meh, if the resource system is what I hear about then I'm not really missing out on much so far.

Was initially excited, now couldn't give a fuck about it anymore.
