For me to be interested in paying for a fourth version of COH, they would have to address some of the gameplay features such as m10 misfire, staghound health, staghound mg reload and a couple of other things. It would nice to see PE HT pathing addressed too. If they really want to get people back to COH, they should release COHO again. That gathered a lot of attention.
I like CoHO. It was a great idea, and maybe another company that wasn't THQ and was willing to lose money for a few years on it could have made it work. But as it was it was a great way to lose millions of dollars and spend a great deal of time not making a new game.
While an HD version of vCoH is not a bad idea, we're working on improving the Steam experience for free which I think most people would prefer to a paid game. Yes you guys might be okay with dropping more money, but the average person (as with CoHO) would just look at it and say "Well the old one works fine so what's the point?"
I could be wrong but I don't think HD updates are that successful, at least on PC where the original game is still able to run. Maybe console games, where unless you still own a NES you can't play Super Mario 3 or whatever.
