Thread: Worth of Sniper?7 May 2013, 15:37 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Apr 2013, 19:36 PMSShaker I can't remember who mentioned this, and upon playing I noticed this as well, but you can no longer manually pick off specific units in enemy squads. It was a way too give you more control over your sniper in CoH1 by targeting the gunner of an MG squad or the stray rifleman while they capped a point (to keep your sniper at maximum distance). I hope it's just an oversight and that Relic can restore the feature. Unless someone can provide a valid explanation to the change, I don't think removing control like this is a good way to go. It looks like they removed the tag that allowed weapons to fire at individual targets...meaning it's unlikely to make a return. That's a more serious mistake than it sounds, whether a Sniper will decide to randomly target the MG gunner is a huge deal. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better7 May 2013, 15:30 PM You can follow the quote to go to a discussion about it Right now the system is: +300 MP/Min starting income -4 MP/Min per 1 Population used Population 0-25 and 75-100 are not taxed by Upkeep So for examples, Population 13 = 300 MP/Min Population 46 = 216 MP/Min Population 75 = 100 MP/Min Population 99 = 100 MP/Min In: COH2 Gameplay

Could you please numerically list some some suggestions which work from within the elements of the current system, that would improve it? It would provide a valuable structure for discussion that is solution centered,mrather than people constantly restating "the problems" and ultimately getting nowhere, especially not closer to something the Devs can implement and axtually work off of. Jump back to quoted post20 Apr 2013, 01:43 AMKolaris +300 Manpower Income No untaxed population whatsoever 1 Pop = 1 MP/Min upkeep This is essentially halfway between what we have now and vCoH levels. Early game Manpower injection = halved Maximum upkeep = halved Preferably in addition to resource points now giving +3-5 MP/Min In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better7 May 2013, 05:47 AM Too much to tackle here before going to bed. To start it off, how does this resemble the DoW2 resource/upkeep system? DoW2 put an enormous amount of Manpower out in the map to be contested and taken by the player who won the early game. It was not given as a handout to a player sitting in his base. Total upkeep values were nowhere near CoH2's levels. Upkeep could be set on an individual unit basis, a balancing tool that will be sorely absent later on in CoH2's life. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Dota 26 May 2013, 15:43 PM I've got 1200 hours on the damn thing Maybe it's finally starting to pay off, I've reached the point where I can get carried to victory. Now I can retire. In: Other Games
Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better6 May 2013, 15:41 PM I don't think they're mutually exclusive either, but I DO think that Relic thinks they are, or will develop the game as if they are. Just my impression. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better6 May 2013, 13:48 PM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2013, 09:34 AMBeltFedWombat CoH2 isn't perfect, but neither was vCoH on release (six years of patching, apart from Staghounds). I'm trying to be glass half-full here. The devs seem to listen and there is lots of time to patch / tweak CoH2 to make the competitive community happier. The upkeep system, GUI and resource-rates can be fixed. The vehicle criticals can be modified. This is all stuff that can, and I suspect will, happen. I appreciate this sentiment, and I hope it turns out to be true. However, I look at your issues with vCoH (Snipers, Bunkers, Stags, Veterancy) and the only one that's a design level, unchangeable mechanic is the Veterancy. If Relic was to devote some time/resources to vCoH, that effort would go a long way to fixing those issues. Ofc that's not going to happen. I look at all the issues I have with CoH2 and I see a lot that I don't believe Relic is going to change. The UI, the simplified linear Doctrines, the faction design & diversity, the lack of global upgrades, the lack of visibility, the bulletin system, and at this point the upkeep system will likely only change in very small ways. I think the issue is priorities. Of course Relic would love to make the competitive community happy, but it's becoming apparent to me that what the competitive community wants is at odds with what Relic believes to be the future of their game - casualizing it for the micro-transaction crowd.

Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better3 May 2013, 15:32 PM I don't remember it changing at all between Alpha and Beta outside performance, although to be fair they did start with medium sized changes right after the Beta began. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: COH2 into the E-sport - Casting mode -1 May 2013, 21:03 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Apr 2013, 02:31 AMDanielD How are you familiar with the limitations of the mod tools? I can tell you right now, the layout of the UI will be off limits. You can change the textures, but layout and features is impossible. In: Lobby
Thread: Can't capture points30 Apr 2013, 23:16 PM OPs in this game look a little awkward and your units don't auto-target them (did they fix that?), so it may have been locked down. In: COH2 Bugs
