as a 2v2 player i kinda feel offended by this thread (not really)
have you ever had the pleasure of whitnessing the bombastic map variety that 2s have to offer?
never had i more fun in my life than while living threw 30 mins of shitshow on the likes of Poltawa, Stadtschutt, Liernaux, Moscow Outskirts, Road to Karkov, Ui Bug County, Crossing in the woods, Alliance of defiance (or every other whiteflash map other than Crossroads SUMMER) and so on
I'm offended by your offendendism. I ask that you are to be canceled from COH2 and all of it's branches. Includes but not limited to vCoh, COH1 mods, Online COH, COH forums.
thank you
Jokes aside. What kinds of shitshows are you talking about? I'm all for shitshows and shitposting. however, I seldom played serious 2v2 games (standard custom games) so my knowledge is limited to the amount of shitshows. I do watch one or two 2v2 casts per week (shame there are no 3v3 casts as 4v4 casts are just pure mayhem)
But I love Ettelbruck....
Angrymunde is a piece of trash though.
You love ettelbruck because you love LeFHs. Don't deny it. Own it.
Its ok as a 4v4 map but its an awful 3v3 map.
As long as both teams have players spawned on the edges (so that only one player needs to walk the most to get out of base), it's all right. The great thing, IMHO, is that if you lose an area (say bottom fuel/VP), you can easily switch to mid and flank with smoke later on to retake bot. Some other maps have such strong encampments that you are forced to play calliope or some sort of mobile arty as say, USF. On steppes, any commander is viable because there are no cheese areas (like mid house on AngryMundy for MGs that can lock it out completely until some pak howi level indirect arrives, not to mention HORRIBLE pathing due to all the ramps). Agreed that 4v4 is better there but 3v3 is also quite good. Not as many arty shells due to it's wide areas and more tank engagements due to, again, wide areas.
