I'm wondering if the old community balance team wouldn't do a much, much better job at this point.

No one can improve Coh3 until they fire the rotten core. One of the people at Relic now is, MirageFla, who was doing the balance changes for Coh2 at the end.

The clearest indicator of how horribly bad the design management is, look at the UI. Load the Q Mode mod from Steam to see what the UI should have looked like. Q mode was made by a former Relic employee who left before the game was released. The Q Mode mod came out shortly after release.

In my mind this could mean a few things. Since Relic continues to be clueless, you have to assume the guy who made the mod got tired of being managed by retards and left. It says he suggested the better way and was rejected. Then put the mod out so the players could enjoy the game the way it should have been on release. And it is so much better than what people are still playing to this day.

Coh3 will never be good. They just lost two key community game designers DevM and Marcus. Since we have established management is bad, we again have to assume these people left their dream jobs to get away from them. Working at their dream place of employment is just not worth their time.

This is all what I posted when Coh3 came out. I have no anger towards Relic for sucking. But I do have a piece of me that is very sad for the people who got dream jobs there just to have the terrible Relic management destroy that dream. And here we are 18 months later and we are exactly where I said we would be.

BACK TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED POSTS

There is a kill count if one hovers over the XP of unit. Just saying.

Vipper you are making me sad. No actual player of Coh would ever accept the HOVER over. No actual player of Coh would ever design that as a feature.

Since you have not listened to the 30 times I have said this here:

When you are running over a bunch of guys in Coh2 you can see the kill number rolling up as you squish their mushy bodies. Are you going to be able to maneuver your vehicle and hover at the same time?

When you are watching a stream you cant see the kill counter. How many kills does that sniper have? We will never know because Relic doesnt play their own game. They are out of touch with the game and its community.

How about when a WhizBang fires off. You cant see the counter rolling up.

90% of a games success comes from player feedback. The sounds need to convey what is happening. The kill counts have to be visible as it is another feedback that you are interacting with the game world.

Relic call themselves professional game devs and try to act like they are above reproach. When they have screwed up ALL of the basic feedback mechanisms of a game. They need to humble themselves and get their shit together. They are just an embarrassing joke at this point.

I was just talking to someone about how Coh should be the most popular game ever. All multiplayer FPS will have hackers and internet lag. They will never be great/perfect to play. RTS is the genre that doesnt require sub 60mS pings. And yet Coh3 is like least played new game out there right now. Do you call that a success story?

and its got fuck all to do with what makes Coh3 a disappointment

What the absolute fuck are you talking about? All I said was its unnecessary

I played coh2 with ppl who didnt share my language all the time. Never had a problem with pings, unless they spammed. But that has fuck all to do with the language they speak...

When you play team games, not everyone speaks your language. you need pings to communicate. But the generic ATTACK, DEFEND, ETC dont cut it in big games.

How do you tell someone a blob is coming on their flank? You ping and they just get confused and then get run off the map.

How do you ask for recon? The thing that killed Coh2 4v4 from ever being big was the insane amount of arty. So you absolutely HAVE TO play certain commanders to counter arty. And it helps if people can share the munition cost by doing the recon for you.

But Relic wouldn't know any of this, because they never play Coh. Ever. We are asking the noobiest of noobs to fix up our favorite game. But they cant. They are too stupid to take our advice and too much of noobs to know what to do themselves. We are screwed. Coh is dead.

Well, there is a reason I'm ignoring vast majority of posts if I see you being their author.

Having hate boner for this long is unhealthy and probably painful.

I told you guys, Coh is a common cause of Peyronie.
