Profile of Rosbone

I have been watching a lot of automatch lately and noticing a large increase in horrible payers. I saw a guy in a 3v3 make an entire army and never took a single engagement. 0 kills, 0 losses. He just lined them up along a wall by his base on Rhzev.

I sometimes swear there is a chinese hospital that gave away COH2 licenses to their mental patients

The file is a text file and needs to be edited in a TEXT file editor such as Notepad, Wordpad, etc. Notepad will usually add the .TXT suffix to the file when you save it so be sure to save as.

COH2 will not open the file if it looks like 6p_MyMap.Info.txt.
It wants 6p_MyMap.Info.

Text files all need delimiters in order for the program code to split things into pieces that make sense. The INFO file uses brackets and commas as delimiters {}, The code that reads the file sees an object then reads what is between the brackets as the objects variables. Each variable is delimited by a comma. Code reads until it sees a comma and ends reading for that variable.

Note that each object is also delimited by a comma after its brackets.

PSUEDO CODE EXAMPLE:
Object = { variable1, Variable2, },

ACTUAL EXAMPLE:
default_skins =
{
"winter",
},

- default skins is the object. Its variables are inside { } and ends with a comma.
- "winter" is a string variable inside the brackets and is delimited with a comma. Note that the quotes are a delimiter that indicates read this var as a string.

It is important that each object and its variables are delimited or the program will read gibberish and crash.

Serious question here: Did any of these crazy things cause people to stop playing the game?

I started playing later and the player base was probably close to where it is now. Would COH2 have a much larger player base without these missteps?

I think the worst thing when I started was Penal Flame blobs. To me the game feels like it is finally in a good place (except snipers, f'ing hate snipers).

Curious if the game is retaining more players now than it did before.

British Force Tips

Well, okay. But just the tip.

Got the soviets and americans backwards. Us yanks didn't enter the war until Japan attacked in winter 1941. Germany invaded the Soviets in summer 1941.

Thanks for the clarification Zombi. Thats why non of my maps will ever be in rotation. I dont have a good historical background. I just make guys and stuff that goes boom..and I am happy

But there are a few things like Sturms that I can see would push people away from this game. All of the strong close quarters infantry is too strong. I would rather they had more armour and less DPS. Then there is the retarded RNG in the game. I had two volk squads and a pio squad shooting a brit rifle section while it walked right passed them and entered a building. Brit took no damage. 12 guys shooting at them at various ranges...no damage. GTFO. If I was new to the game, the UNINSTALL button would have been pressed for sure and I would have been screaming at Steam for a refund for this broken ass game.
