COH2.org and its partner Relic Entertainment make no claim that this exciting new online ladders feature can or will ever exist.
Indeed. |
If it wasnt for GR and the chat lobby you wouldnt know half of the people on your friend list. And i bet you dont talk to 90% of your friend list, where as if there was a chat lobby you could talk to everyone in the game and possibly meet new people.
I cant say the average conversation in the GR chat was filled with people I would want to add to my steam friend list... |
Edit; Again, I'm not shitting on the dev team. I understand very clearly they've gotten the shit end of the stick with how things have went. Doesn't change anything though
Just to get things clear one more time: are you or are you not shitting on the dev team..? |
In all fairness, the current playerbase on CoH2 is about the same as on CoH1, right before the servers migrated to steam. The game is not dead, but needs reanimation in the form of a few good patches. |
Because someone in a video actually analyzed the statistics, for the benefit of the people dumb enough to believe everything their government tells them.
The data was not analyzed, rather than some of the concluding statistics. The U.K. and the U.S. have very different definitions of "violent crime", which leads to the misconception that the U.K. is significantly more violent than the U.S. |
...actually there have been comparative studies that show Wikipedia has become more accurate than traditional encyclopedias like Encarta. In addition, if compared to the others, Wikipedia shows more depth of knowledge about shared subjects. Compare a 500 word entry on Encarta to the basically unlimited word count of a Wikipedia entry (Abraham Lincoln for example).
The whole idea that Wikipedia isn't "academic" stems from a variety of reasons that date back to the sites infancy. Since then they've had to legally beef up the regulation of the site and the requirements for a post's publication.
I find it's a good place for general background information and, since you now have to provide references and citations (some with links to scholarly articles, books, etc), a great and handy springboard to broader studies.
Wikipedia is also becoming the go-to place where sites such as about.com go to simply copy and paste the info to their own site.
Some things on Wikipedia can certainly be disputed, but to say Wikipedia isn't "reliable" is somewhat inaccurate (no pun intended).
Even though Wikipedia evolves, Wikipedia and about.com are still not reliable and cannot be used as viable sources. Nor can they be used as a "springboard" to other sources. RealTimeWWII is not getting any academic credits either, making it a very doubtful source, only embraced by those that accept shadows of truth. |
I guess they are visualizing no man's land, even though it looks quite bad. |
RealTimeWWII, about as reliable as wikipedia. |
a simple patch won't "force him to love coh2" like you said. it might, it just might add stuff that would make the game more enjoyable, but theres no guarantee for that.
you called him a noob (or, rhetorically asked him whether he wanted you to call him a noob, which is basically the same thing).
as you can see from the rest of the posts in this thread,the other people understood what he meant. and whether my post is helpful or not is up to OP i think.
PLS dude, next time before you post, think twice about it. if it ain't a nice post, don't post at all.
I advice you to read posts twice before you respond and try to correct them even though you are mistaken, which is quite consistently on this forum. Still, it is up to me to decide what type of posts I make. If admins feel a post is too harsh I am sure they will remove it or warn me without getting your consent first. |
i don't know why, but every time i see you post, you miss the point entirely.
he asked, and i quote, "How can I keep the love alive?".
saying to "at least wait for a patch before complaining" is not an adequate answer. neither is calling him a noob.
as for me, i also loved vCoH and am discontent with the state the game is currently in. i have also been eyeballing other games, and might come back to CoH2 in a few months when features have been added. so, i cannot tell you how to keep the love alive, but taking a step back and appreciating other games might actually help.
Omega_warrior's post was extremely helpful as he indicated a new patch will be here soon, which possibly means new 1v1 maps (point one) and a new meta game (point two).
Guess what? Tomorrow, a new 1v1 map and other updates will make changes in favor of BeltFedWombat's love for CoH2. Nobody called him a noob. BeltFedWombat himself suggested he might be a noob by saying "perhaps I need to L2P".
Other than that, you didn't post anything new to help him either. |
