Maps is the way to reduce the discontent between the players.

I like your thinking

To me the next patch is critical. With the two blunders they have made, bad release then game store, this next patch could start to turn things around.

I was leaning towards a large patch that fixes a lot of things. But this will take some time. Some things they plan to fix may not pan out in time. This would make the large patch be smaller which may be taken as Relic being lazy, not caring, etc. Since it will take more time, players may disengage further from Coh3 and move on to some other game.

Some people may like smaller patchs more often. Players get excited by patches. So getting a decent patch once a week may be well received by the community. If I was Relic I would make a video saying we will be posting a patch every week. Since player numbers are down, posting a patch every few days would really keep players engaged. They will want to be playing when the patch hits.

I am curious what the community would like? What do you perceive as better?

Admitting to mistakes is not a sign of weakness but a sign of integrity & humbling yourself.

This.

If Relic/Sega wanted this to succeed they should have called it Early Access. Everyone here would flock to it so they could play it sooner. All issues would be forgiven. If they were really smart they would have just released the MP portion. Buying more time to finish the SP on the full release.

Personally, I would give them a pass if they had working Team Colors, Stats screen, easier to see kill counts, and upped the Specular lighting or textures. The rest is fine for me.

The fact none of those were working tells me they have no idea who plays the game and why. This is day 1 stuff.

1) They fixed team colors a little. But never explained why the colors are what they are. They probably had a reasonable answer. Would have taken less beating if they explained it better.

2) Stats screen is tied to the Host of the match. This is hard dumb. But it may have origins in trying to keep MP teams in sync when searching for games. But, why is it broken when playing alone? Again, silence from Relic.

3) Hiding the kill counts is unforgivable. You cant find space anywhere in that bloated trash GUI to print 3 small numbers??? GTFOH.

4) How did Relic let this game go out the door looking like everything is made of chalk? The texture quality is amazing. The new objects look amazing. Maps are very pretty. Why ruin all of that work with no shiny lighting?

Every person has their list. Mine is simple stuff that should have been done in the first month of development.

Balance will never be completed.
Dont care about in-game stores.
Camera seems fine to me.
etc etc etc

So it all points to management as usual. They dont know the game. They didnt adjust to the fact the game was not coming together fast enough. They are not communicating well to calm the masses that are mad.

And stop being lying pieces of shit. Stop saying "we are listening to the community". No you are not. And it looks very bad when you keep saying it.

As I always say, I am very dumb. If I can see the problems, why cant the smart people at Relic. Clearly there are NO SMART people in charge at Relic/Sega.

Here are some lines from Steam reviews I find entertaining:
"JUST GET SOMETHING RIGHT PLEASE RELIC"
"Thanks Sega, you really f#cked up this time."
"I feel like I've been lied to and robbed purchasing this game."
"Well that kills a lot of good will towards the game and potential customers. It is not okay and we should expect the developers to do better."
"While you will be gaining short term profits from your micro transactions you have done long term damage to a loved franchise."
"The latest update basically ♥♥♥♥ on anyone that had good faith on the development team to fix any major issues and introduced the worst monitisation system for any casual or fan."
"Burn the place down. Coh is dead. Relic is dead. I'm heartbroken."
"I have no more hope for them."
"Game seems half baked and they dare to sell it for 60€. Now they offer in-game payments to milk this cash cow even further. Unbelievable."
"My verdict- do not buy. The game can share the fate of DoW3 in upcoming months."

Did I have to scour the reviews to get these ... no, these are just from today alone.

Where have I heard all of these statements before?

It is heart breaking hearing people say I love the series and pre-ordered the deluxe edition and it sucks ass I wish I could refund it.

I personally would like to see a few things before I am happy with the games release. Personal things that I am sure will NEVER get done.

But to answer the question you only need one metric: Is Relic full brain dead monkey scuffing retards?

The game has been out for over a month and I have yet to even "SEE" the stats screens. Never seen them.

If I had paid for this heaping pile of trash, I would have refunded immediately. The ONLY reason to play skirmish is for the stats screen.

I dont know how anyone at Relic is this retarded. Why would anyone ever tie a menu screen to something like the game host or the AI? Who is that scuffing dumb? I can't even begin to conceive how they have jobs. I would have fired everyone 2 weeks before release and fixed it myself.

This is beyond the dumbest thing I have ever seen done by humans. And this includes drunken tards trying to de-ball themselves on YouTube. At least they had a conceivable goal. What was Relics goal? To kill their own IP and lose all of their jobs? To create the WORST scuffing game ever made?

The fact this is still broken but they added an in-game store = YES, all of the garbage reviews are deserved. No one should buy this game and all of you should get your money back.

I hate to say it but they deserve to just close their doors at this point. We will all lose the games we love but it has to be done for humanities sake at this point.

EDIT:
This level of incompetence absolutely cannot be tolerated or rewarded. They need to publicly fire some people or just close their doors.
