Profile of Mirage357

I'm basically in the belief that the largest problem is the fact the people hold this undying belief in the existence of a meta based on what units are currently the most OP. not what works best based on the map they get dealt with.

1. Commander abilities need to be fixed to be more focused on particular aspects of how a faction can be played. Sorry if you don't agree but I find USF and OKW commanders are almost spot on in this aspect where as the OST and SOV commanders are way out of proportion due to how many of them there are and the lack of diversity between their abilities, making them too similar to other ones. This alone could change the "Current" meta.

2. Don't follow build orders, learn to counter your opponents and predict what they are going to try next. What use is following a build order when strategy games are about countering your opponent with the right units at the right time, not being predictable.

3. More map variety just more its quite a poor list at the moment.

I just revived this thread woohoo!

LOL Congratulations STEEL.

Well when I first got into gaming my tag was Casper, as that is my real life nickname. After some years of gaming FPS it was later changed to Mirage after a national BF2 clan war where I scored +70 kills for less than a dozen deaths in a single round after which the opposing clan leader referenced that shooting at me was like trying to hit a mirage. So Mirage is obvious enough in itself due to the definition of the word.

The 357 originates from the first clan I was ever a part of in fact it was the one that went national, our tag was .357mm surrounded by a roman short sword. So my name in games often comes up as (]:::[Mirage.357mm:::::> Just insert Casper for the earlier version. As not all games allow those characters to be inserted I developed it Mirage.357mm, Mirage357mm, Mirage.357. Finally I left it at Mirage357 because of how many times people decided to try and inform of what I already knew, that a .357 round was not in mm but in fact in inches.

To this day (]:::[Mirage.357mm:::::> is still the name on my steam profile.

Yup there sure is.

In Steam, Right click Company of Heroes 2. Select properties. Click on set launch options. Type in -nomovies and click OK. Click close. Run game.

Considering its current state of progress I still need to do a lot of work on it before even I will be satisfied with it (I've always taken this as a good thing).

When it comes to beautification I can sometimes go a little over board and have to pull myself back a bit so as not to clog things unnecessarily (majority of maps I made are industrial or urban) this being one of my first rural maps I'm really trying to watch that I don't clog areas up too much object wise and get more or a natural realistic look as you say.

Changing the map in the way that I have seriously screwed with its territory balance, I've been meticulously changing and testing but I think I've nearly got it nailed now.

.... and the numbers are back down to sub 4000.

LOL. Does this mean I should feel good if over two and a half thousand people have subscribed to one of my maps since I uploaded it on the 19th Dec?

Or bad because it probably won't get much higher than that?
