Thread: Help me test Bayeux18 May 2020, 22:11 PM Jump back to quoted post18 May 2020, 20:12 PMRaxzero I think map is just way too small right now, which leads to small capture circles. You might want to make it bigger by adding some space here and there (I suggest adding more space between capture points, personally, they're too near to each other currently). Most of the more popular maps are nearly the same size as the new Bayeux. The actual width where points are located is approx 190 at the midline. And more like 230-240 fuel-fuel just off center. The distance between points ranges from 35m-60m. Which is also normal. The points are central to each side VP, so the muni, muni cutoff, and mid TP could each be moved 5-10m more towards the center maybe? I am not aware of the tactical reason Spanky was designing to, so I dont want to say this is needed. The points are generically fine. I agree that the capture points could be a little bigger. This would also bring the cover objects into the circle so units dont clump outside the circle. Just looking at the map I am very excited about the layout. I think the smaller size, removal of the cutoff houses, and the point layout looks great. This map will be great for players that focus on resources over VPs. Each main point is easily taken and connected for income. In: Lobby
Thread: Close the pocket18 May 2020, 00:10 AM As a 4v4 only player: - Red Ball - White Ball - Road to Arnhem - La Gleize Have good CTP options. LaGleize is almost the easiest to pull of yet no one ever uses the ability on the map. All you need to do is drop on the cutoff outside the base(if no cache) then CTP. Nordwind has strong cutoffs in the North. One could let the enemy have the North, then just push the cutoff. But by 12-14 CPs you have probably already lost the match. I am torn on CTP. Its fun as hell to pull off. But I agree with the OPs point that it may be a bad experience for newer casual players. The first time it happened to me, I was really confused. If it wasnt for people in chat talking about it, I would have been a little annoyed. And since all the pros here proclaim its not used in high level games, why even have it? To punish noobs when you have a premade team? In: COH2 Balance

So Relic server decided I should not be doing this good and drove a dead plane into my healing squads...REKT. Three full health vetted Volk squads with lmgs...gone...

Thread: Map veto stats (v4)17 May 2020, 12:50 PM Jump back to quoted post16 May 2020, 23:38 PMaerafield Just judging by quality & gameplay, 2v2 has the worst mappool in the game I think Are we all in agreement on this? I feel the same way. 2v2 could use some love. But I have not played enough 2v2 to have much of an opinion. When I played 2v2 Fields of Winnekendonk, it felt a little too big and would be a great 3v3 map to me. Map vetoes matched this feeling. Elst Outskirts feels too big to me also. But it is a tournament map that also gets a lot of play by the top players. Then we have Crossing in the Woods which people say is too small, yet it also gets the most plays by top players. So in my noob assessment, it seems like we want some 2v2 maps about the size of Elst, but with fuels and VPs more central located. So you have room to flank the sides, but not have to be fighting at the edges of the map all the time? Room to move, but not be spread so thin you get 2v1'ed and rekt. Maybe this is Elsts secret formula, VPS central for late game, fuels spread for early game. Depending on the central sight blockers, I also like the size of Eindhoven. So maybe somewhere in between?

Thread: Vehicle pathing16 May 2020, 20:11 PM My favorite is drive straight thru some stuff, fire a shot or two, then back up thru same stuff....Derp Derp...360...Derp Derp...360... Dead. But I only play this game to get my blood pressure up high enough to induce a hemorrage. So I guess, Job well done? Many times I find my mouse clicks are the real issue. If I am moving fast and drag the mouse a pixel or two, Relic decided that means turn around then drive to that point. Or you click twice and it turns around instead of continuing on backwards. Like in vCOH you would lead a vehicle by clicking just behind it. Bad habit I guess. That all said there are a few places where the pathing makes no sense. But then again, the pathing for vehicles is the single hardest thing this game has to do. In: COH2 Gameplay

Road to Kharkov at position 2 in 2v2 lmao, I bet if you would look at top 200 players, this map would belong to the 5 least popular You mean like this graph that shows it as top 4 map Kappa? And I think this was before the last rework patch. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Map veto stats (v4)16 May 2020, 04:31 AM Jump back to quoted post16 May 2020, 03:17 AMClarity Still find it odd that a lot of people don't veto Lost Glider in 1v1, too many garrisons on this map and North spawn has a hell of a time holding their cutoff similar to North Langres. I see numbers where Lost Glider and Arnhem get a lot of plays and Novgorod gets no plays and I say to myself "Delete Novgorod now! I clearly have not even the remotest idea what 1v1 players want to play on." Both maps look very cool, but I could not imagine in my wildest dreams players would want to play on them. Full health stone buildings with harsh cutoffs. I feel like if someone made these maps today and got them into the game, they would be getting death threats immediately. Makes me want to genuinely apologize for ever working on 1v1 maps. I made Novgorod before I vowed to never touch a 1v1 map. It wont happen again. Sorry guys. No more maps from me In: Mapping Discussion
