How about "This is what we've trained for" or "This is it", both are quotes from the OKW Sturmpioneers

DevM's quote:

Faction design in CoH1 was in many ways superior to CoH2's , many of the basic tools were already there without the need for a commander and the original factions played out in interesting ways due to the high costs associated with any major teching decision. What CoH2 factions have going for it is a more noob friendly approach,[...]

I am sorry but where exactly is the difference to CoH2 here? Can someone explain this to me? Where exactly do Wehr and Soviets in CoH2 lack a basic tool you need to pick a commander for instead?

And DLC factions lacking basic tools and going for a noob friendly approach is exactly the same in vCoH. Brits have terrible design (just like CoH2 brits) and are easy to abuse, and Panzerelite is very similar to OKW's release state... No HMG (OKW HMG34 used to be a commander call-in), no snipers, means the majority of your army consists of frontline infantry and vehicles. No flamers.
The craziest part about vCoH DLC factions is that they do not have ANY mobile team weapons AT ALL. ( I do not count the commando vickers/mortar from the HQ glider).

About the points in the text that are kinda objective (and not personal preference) I agree, especially with the complaints about CoH2 DLC commanders. But oh well, unfortunately this is what nearly all videogames these days developed into.

A few things I would like to add are:

- as mentioned before, the complaint about demos is out-dated since demos in CoH2 already got changed and are the exact same like vCoH demos now
- not a single criticism about vehicle call-ins in vCoH not costing any fuel

That's a really hard question cuz there is so much shit patches to choose from. (Not the community patches tho, overall they were awesome IMO)

I would say the one where Mobile Assault and Advanced emplacement regiment got added. Not only that both doctrines were beyond broken and OP (5 CP land matress destroying an OKW HQ in 1 barrage; free counter barrage vs mortars that attempted to destroy the almost unkillable emplacements), but it also removed veterancy from all units, caused the 100-man RE squad and 5x schreck /4x sweeper etc. bug on all squads after reinforcing.
And it bugged out the automatch map-pool as well. IIRC every 1v1 was played on Stalingrad, every 2v2 on Kharkov, every 3v3 on Rzhev Summer and every 4v4 on Steppes. No matter what maps you vetoed.

And it was during ESL as well

ok so 8 rank 1000+ axis-only players voted for brits already, noice

I was hoping this would be a thread on bringing back the female partisans

I already tried but it didnt work
