Thread: Relic and Org need to update their banning policies14 Jun 2023, 19:32 PM
Something kind of similar. Not really, happened to me. Someone said something 100% unhinged. Not a joke. Nothing happened to said person that did it. Not defending anyone’s actions. But “rules” do not in fact apply to everyone and there is favoritism/variance of actions taken. I’ve been banned on twitch for “hateful conduct”. Not the game itself or the org. But I deserved the ban and am self-aware of my personality. Of coming off as abrasive, an asshole, and mostly “toxic”. But like I said above. There have been other people (who are way more in the spotlight than Rosbone) presenting similar actions, and nothing has happened. In: COH3 Central |

“RTS games should have "strategies" in them and not just "micro". Player should be reward/penalized for their decision making and not just for their reflex. “ You said this. Which I followed by saying. Sacrificing map control in exchange for ideal positioning to wipe units is a strategy. Not “cheesy” like you said. Micro is involved by so is the decision to take that approach during the game? I don’t have the patience to argue with you LOLOL. Yes SMG squads and CQB units should trade efficiently close quarters. But at the same time if that unit ends up on your retreat path and your retreating a very low health squad with 1-2 models. There should be a good chance that the CQB unit wipes that squad. You are being punished for having your retreat path not protected. Know your surroundings. That’s why I said TTK is too high in my opinion. Low health squads with 1-2 models retreat through double BAR rifles sometimes 2 squads of double BAR rifles and live. Like Hannibal said. It creates boring gameplay. In: COH3 Central |

In the future if you want to debate/argue. You can’t just say something then ignore my rebuttal lol. High TTK is bad. There is obviously a sweet spot and there shouldn’t be super Low TTK. But it depends on the situation. A 6 model Thompson squad should have pretty low TTK on any squad it gets close to. It makes sense. In: COH3 Central |

In general it is more difficult. Because your damage is now halved on retreat. So where micro could be implemented “grenades on retreat” it’s not worth it now. Even the mind games of tossing a grenade to the side or a little behind cover in hopes your opponent dodges onto it. Are now void. Because it’s just better to retreat. Example in COH2 top players would sometimes launch a rifle nade into the squads retreat path before the squad retreats. Hoping the player hears the grenade que and then retreats the squad to avoid it. But runs right into the grenade. This would usually result in a wipe or very close to it. It’s a very HIGH risk/skill/reward. If pulled off correctly the player gets a squad wipe for implementing TACTICS (omg no way). But if he misses or it’s dodged or the bluff is called. He loses munitions. In COH3 just retreat. Because it doesn’t matter if you retreat right through a grenade now because your damage is reduced to where you will likely only incur health damage. This adds to the even BAR riflemen. Or any squads with automatic weapons. Like the units now have to be EXTREMELY low to be wiped. EXTREMELY. To the point it’s not really worth sacrificing map control for big flanks to try and wipe units. I don’t see the justification of them reworking retreating buffs besides making it harder to wipe units on retreat. Green cover as well is now useless against grenades. It’s almost always better retreat, then try to dodge. Which removes elements from engagements. You used to be able to tank grenades behind green cover and still possibly win the engagement. Now if you want to make a squad move from green cover you don’t have to out maneuver your opponent. Just grenade spam  In: COH3 Central |

You do realize that maneuvering onto your opponents retreat path. Anticipating their retreat, along with forcing a retreat. To then wipe a weak unit. To weaken your opponents overall army power. Is a strategy?. Making it easier for you to do literally everything. Cap VPs/points win engagements. Because they are fighting with a smaller army than you after you wipe a unit. You do realize that is a strategy? If you don’t like that strategy. It doesn’t mean it should be nerfed. Because people don’t like it. Yea bro I hate when I get outplayed by my opponent because he wiped my entire army because I over extended. It’s extremely difficult to wipe units on retreat in COH3. Way too much forgiveness. It’s basically turned into forget everything just press T. You’ll be okay. COH is a very forgiving game when it comes to micro. There are a lot of top level players with low APM. But it also allows micro to have an impact. Your comment about invisible grenades. You lack discipline in playing then. It’s that simple. There are numerous units that reveal cloaked units. Your inability to employ them does not make cloaked units “cheesy”. Build a 222. They nerfed forward reinforcement pretty hard. For the better. But TTK is still trash. Like exsile said. There is no dramatic distinction between weapon profiles. I don’t know why assault grens take ages to win an engagement close range. Or why double BAR riflemen take ages to win an engagement medium to close range. Nothing makes sense. In: COH3 Central |

I’m not quoting you because I’m on my phone and the page would be too long. @gia But agree to disagree. There is definitely “clicks” in the COH scene. Let’s just say I find the most arrogant players almost unanimously 1s mains. I’m not saying there’s arrogant team game people. But it’s funny when people try to shine a bad light on players based off game mode and not their performance. People like higher TTK because people don’t like being punished. Higher TTK makes it easier for everyone to be “good” or have a better chance at winning games. Because it removes catastrophes. People not paying attention and losing squads. People think higher TTK some how makes the game more tactical. Even though I don’t know how you can argue that at all? Because it removes a key element form an RTS. Timing, and positioning power. I’m not saying you don’t understand because you seem to like lower TTK. But for everyone else. If you ambush a squad with a CQB unit you should reap the rewards of forcing that unit to retreat/wipe. Not they casually soft retreat to another squad and win the engagement. That is the problem with high TTK. There’s no more OH FUCK moments. When a shock troop shows up out of nowhere. Or a PGREN is on your retreat path. On top of they dramatically reduced squad wipes on retreat. With the whole retreating buffs rework. It may not be intentional. But it seems it’s geared to make things “easier” for everyone. Which is fine. But shortens the ceiling of gameplay. Kimbo is best known for the playstyle in COH2 and I try to implement it as well when possible. But in COH2 you could straight up win games by sacrificing some map control to get a juicy envelopment and wipe half your opponents army. It was a hidden win condition in COH2 that you ignore VPs and map control. To out position your opponent. Cripple him substantially. He then can no longer contest you. Doesn’t seem possible in COH3.

Thread: It's insane how little relic has learnt 9 May 2023, 17:23 PM
I preached this all week 1 of the game launching. COH3 literally has half the player base of COH2. Voidtrain comes out today!!. I’ve tried to COHPE. In reality. All good things eventually must end. I don’t see how Relic can turn the player base around even with another patch. Considering the last patch did nothing to retain players. I still blame the COH1 clowns. The game feels off. The “tactical” “strategy” feels washed. Insane amount of punishment removed from the game. Also just skill influenced mechanics that made the game interesting/fun. Big wipes, grenades on retreat. Crush/light vehicle pushing. Punishing players for over extending and being greedy. Since my twitch ban. I have played 1s and they are decent. But team games is the life of COH and team games in COH3 are 1000 times worse than COH2. I’ve said it on stream before. But in all the COH3 games I’ve played. I have not had any EPIC moments similar to what COH2 can give me. The twinkle in my eye during a big engagement in COH2 has not been replicated in COH3. But yea all your points are valid. The amount of time required to fix this game outweighs the patience of the community. Indicators being the less than 3000 player base that’s continuously dropping. But GLHF!!! In: COH3 Central |
