Thread: COH2 sold 4 million units in 201418 Mar 2015, 13:27 PM Upgrades (or their equivalents) have been a hallmark of every single RTS in history, and for good reason: they add an extra dimension to a game's strategic diversity, and they exponentially increase the number of possible strategies players can employ. It's not about making CoH2 more like DoW2, it's about giving CoH2 a basic element of RTS play that has been proven time after time in other games (CoH1 included) to drastically improve strategic variety, yet has been inexplicably excluded.

Thread: COH2 sold 4 million units in 201417 Mar 2015, 16:42 PM I enjoyed the parts of it I played pre-release. The mission where you had to kill a Tiger with a few engineers and Guards was pretty fun. In: Lobby
Thread: COH2 sold 4 million units in 201417 Mar 2015, 13:40 PM I was responding to your comment that CoH2 is more difficult than CSGO. I agree, for the casual player who doesn't want to play competitively, it's easier to pick up and play a shooter than an RTS. But my point was that in my opinion, competitive CSGO is more challenging both mechanically and strategically than competitive CoH2 is, yet CSGO regularly has 100,000 players searching for or playing competitive games concurrently. I would be surprised if CoH2 ever has 1,000 players searching for or playing automatch games concurrently. Shooters are easier to get into casually, no doubt about that. But as someone who's played and watched a lot of both games, CSGO is easily more complex in terms of competitive play in my opinion, and it's still wildly more popular in spite of that. There are a lot of reasons for CoH2's lack of success, but relative difficulty isn't one of them. In: Lobby
Thread: Replay storage date filter bug13 Mar 2015, 22:41 PM Also, I'm guessing the dates you're having trouble sorting correctly are formatted differently. CoH2 uses a string sort to sort dates instead of a proper datetime sort, so something like 2 March 2015 will show up before February 10 2015 (for example) because the '2' character has a lower value than the 'F' character.

Thread: COH2 sold 4 million units in 201413 Mar 2015, 15:33 PM Honestly, CoH1 didn't have enough depth to be a proper competitive multiplayer game with a large community like we see popping up around the most popular multiplayer games today either. But it was still deeper than CoH2 is right now, and it's unfortunate that Relic has gone in the opposite direction relative to today's market. In: Lobby
Thread: COH2 sold 4 million units in 201413 Mar 2015, 13:45 PM multiplayer-only, fully-priced games Dota 2 and League of Legends have the massive character roster to allow for virtually endless strategic combinations, and their built-in eSports communities keep players talking about and dissecting the game. It's almost like multiplayer games have to be deep and interesting if they want to attract large numbers of players. This article isn't saying anything about multiplayer not being important, it's saying if you're going to rely on multiplayer only, you better make it damn good. That's what's always confused me about CoH2. Their microtransaction business model relies on a strong multiplayer community because all of their DLC is targeted at the multiplayer crowd, yet they've gone to great lengths to simplify multiplayer and remove a great deal of depth, and they've actively marginalized dedicated members of their multiplayer community that are instrumental to creating hype and attention for the game. In my eyes, the success of games like Dota 2 and LoL and CSGO is proof that people want deep, complex multiplayer games that they can sink their time into, yet Relic has taken CoH2 in the complete opposite direction.

Thread: COH2 sold 4 million units in 201412 Mar 2015, 14:11 PM Read back a few pages, I explained how they likely collected the stats. Summary is if you already owned CoH2 before you bought one of the expansions, the expansion wouldn't count as a sale, but if you didn't own CoH2 before you bought one of the expansions it would.
