Thread: Why would I build a Panther?2 Sep 2013, 16:12 PM Yeah, I mean. I'd take a Panther over a PIV any day. I've recently been changing my BO to accomodate them and have had a few games where I've managed to build 2 (+1 Tiger once) and found that they were rendered somewhat redundant because of a defensive line of SU-85s backed up by snipers. I'm not ranting, and like CptEend said there's still plenty of balancing to do. But I will be very happy when the balance can evolve out of this Su-85 defensive play that you see quite often and move on to a more fluid late game. It almost makes me not want to not play Soviet because most of the time it has to be done. In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: IS-2 a viable option?2 Sep 2013, 12:45 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Sep 2013, 00:47 AMundostrescuatro I've personally not seen a lot of IS2s used against me.. but in that video it does seem to have a ridiculously hard time taking down that P IV. Whether that was just the RNG fannying around or not I don't know. If it isn't then the IS2 has been severely overstated in the bulletins. I think the IS2 should be able to change its role by way of an 'upgun' style upgrade. If the IS2 were to be called to the battle with the default A19 gun (using HE ammunition making it useful for taking out buildings and infantry) it could then be upgraded for a sizeable munitions investment and given the BS-3 main gun, effectively making it more of a heavy tank killer but negating it's anti-infantry abilities. I think this would allow the IS2 to be a bigger factor a lot more in the later stages of games because of it's versatility. In: Red Army Strategies

Thread: Tiger commander fans?1 Sep 2013, 17:59 PM I love the tiger man. I think they might have nailed it perfectly in CoH2 in terms of being close to it's 'designed role', the time (and amount of fuel) it takes to get a tiger means You don't often see it in games -comparable to say a panther - but when you do see it, it is something that, if used in the right hands, can be pretty unstoppable. And I agree that is how it should feel. I find heavy tanks an absolute joy to micro in CoH2 (just as I did in CoH1) and I'm thankful that hasn't been lost between the two games.

Thread: So does no one care that Relic is recycling maps?26 Aug 2013, 18:11 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Aug 2013, 16:51 PMTwister They already said they will eventually release the worlbuilder. If you think from another point of view like you say, maybe you'll realise that porting an already designed map isn't nearly as time consuming as building a new one, and a portion of the community really likes them so it's really nice of Relic that they take a little bit of time to please that part of the community. If you don't like the old maps, don't worry because new ones are being worked on at the same time. I'll repeat it again, I have no (that's NO) problems with old maps being ported across or new ones being made... Jump back to quoted post26 Aug 2013, 16:51 PMTwister We want new features even more than you because we're trying to organise things like tournaments, where a whole bunch of new tools would really help. Other tournament organisers, streamers and shoutcasters all want and need these things probably more than you, but even they don't whine about it all the time because that doesn't help. It just brings negativity and people start to dislike you. Your (or anyone elses)contribution to the competitive multiplayer aspect of this game makes you want the features more than me? that's an absurd supposition to make. I bring up these points again and again because I sorely want to contribute to the community of this game as much as I am able. I cannot cast, nor am I an amazing player. I do not organise tournaments or create leader boards, I can only make maps, and I look forward to doing so. So do me a favour and stop trying to answer my questions with your opinions. Nice one.

Thread: So does no one care that Relic is recycling maps?26 Aug 2013, 14:02 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Aug 2013, 13:36 PMAmiPolizeiFunk What secrecy? It's being worked on. What do you want, a release date? It's been said time and again why companies don't give release dates for new features. Don't know what you're after here. err..more information.. I'm really confused as to why you guys think I should be after less information?? Jump back to quoted post26 Aug 2013, 13:49 PMOnkelSam I am not attacking you personally, i am just asking you to stop crying. Because in every thread that is slightly map related you bring up the Worldbuilder topic and cry about it. Even if there is no correlation, as in this thread, which is about a map that has been produced by the map design team, and has nothing to do with programming a tool. They won't release the WB, before it is stable on the majority of machines and has a minimum amount of comfort in the UI. Nor will they give a release date, for reasons given in other threads. Just because they have a version that is running on a few machines which they can babysit doesn't mean it is ready for release. So you mean to tell me the new map (Made in the COH2 WB) has no relation to the WB. no relation at all?? are you sure?.... I admit, my desire for the worldbuilder may be a bit over-zealous for a few. But look at it from out point of view. We aren't linked to Relic the same way you guys are. We can't all sit around wryly smiling saying - chill out man.. soon.. But that's not my biggest problem. I guess the fact that things just get regurgitated now and we are expected to be happy with that. The maps are free, I understand, But still I don't exactly see the merits of lending high praise to the recycling of an existing map. where's the new stuff?? you know what I mean? I mean if they make a CoH3 then how long will we have to wait while they port. Semois, Ango, Langres, Kholodny, Moscow OS etc. Mod support has been disabled for Coh2 right (unless I am mistaken). And I fear that mapping will go the same way. I am immensely worried that the reason it is taking so long to get information on ANYTHING involving this game is because the answers are not favourable (and I'm not talking about timeframes) In the meantime, I will try to limit my 'crying...' about the worldbuilder. Let's just hope we're not getting shafted. In: COH2 Gameplay
