Thread: What should Relic do to increase allies-players?18 Aug 2014, 17:49 PM this poll gives some hint why there are more people playing as axis: http://www.coh2.org/topic/20528/big-poll one thing people should keep in mind: the numbers shown while searching for a game make the problem of people prefering axis seem much larger than it actually is: an example: lets say 100 players want to play as axis, 110 players want to play the allies. a game lasts 30 minutes, waiting for a game takes 3 minutes. that means that of the 210 total players only 1/11 (19%) are currently looking for a game. since ingame the number of axis and allies are always equal, that means of the about 20 people currently looking for a new game there would be 15 (75%) searching as axis and only 5 (25%) searching as allies In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Some coh2 complaints13 Aug 2014, 10:10 AM Jump back to quoted post13 Aug 2014, 06:03 AMafrrs 1 - why the unit information box \ rectangle below must be so big ? it takes almost a quarter of the screen and there is little info there anyways . . i got the opposite problem. i play on a resolution of 2560x1600 and the unit information box and especially the minimap are too small with these settings. it would be great if relic could optimize the layout not only for medium resolution but also for large and smaller screens.

Thread: Soviet commander suggestion12 Aug 2014, 10:40 AM good idea. here is a fantacy Ostheer "Captured equipment tactics" commander: 0CP: Mines - your Pioneers can lay down captured soviet mines instead of s-mines for 25 munitions 1CP Prost - Captured Rations of Vodka lets your Infantry break supression at the cost of accuracy. 30 munitions/ duration 10 sec / cooldown 2 minutes 3CP PPSh - Upgrade Grenadiers with 2 PPsh Captured mashine guns for 60 munitions 6CP T34/76 - Call in a T34 Tank - the tank has only 10 Shells left. aim carefully and use hold fire - after wasting your shots you can only use Ram 10CP IS2 - Call in a IS2 Battle Tank - even fully repaired the tank has a damaged engine and only goes on 60% speed In: Lobby
Thread: Soft anti blob needed? How CoH handles small arms and blobs.6 Aug 2014, 10:21 AM There was a antiblob concept for Automatic Weapons implemented in COH1 of which i dont know if it is in COH2 as well. The weapon statistic was called incremented accuracy. It worked like this: say a MG42 had an Acuracy of 20% against a single Target, then it had 20% x^y against the same target if "y" additional soldiers where close to the target - x would be the value for incremental accuracy with typical values of around 1.05 for automatic weapons. So in an example with 10 target soldiers in a blob, and a incermental-accuracy value of 1.05 the 20% mg-accuracy would go up to 20%9^1.05 = 31% does anybody know if this mechanic is in COH2?

Thread: OKW Truck and Pushing/Crushing17 Jul 2014, 17:46 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jun 2014, 20:03 PMTychoCelchuuu "Hmm let's see what people are saying about OKW trucks now that crush is gone..." [backs out slowly] so? what do you think? OKW can still use the truck to scout, push around infantry, destroy unwanted Houses (very easy to do), block m3s, and destroy light cover. i myself use it as best as i can, but i still would say it is terrible design. you dont even loose anything if the thing dies... the opposite! you get to salvage the wreck for extra fuel and 5 minutes later the truck gets replaced for no extra cost.

Thread: big Poll17 Jul 2014, 14:54 PM another remarkable thing you can read out of this poll: i guess when i started the poll, i would have expected that at least 50% of the people would say that they have played for less than a year. if i knew how many have been playing for over 3 years i would have added another option "i have played since the start of coh1 2006". But as of this time, out of 103 votes only 6 said that they have not played coh1 while 87% claimed that they have been playing the series for over a year. surely coh2.org is the place for the more experienced players - but still, those are extreme numbers. it has often been said that the marketing for the game is not that good. and this data seems to back this claim up. nearly no completly new players (and that is within a rather young player base) got on board since the release of coh2.

Thread: big Poll17 Jul 2014, 09:32 AM some surprising outcomes i would not have thought that oberkommando was so popular given how different it is from the other factions. also noticeable the amount of votes in favor of DLC. browsing this forum over the last year i was under the impression that most people here hate it with passion. In: Lobby
Thread: big Poll16 Jul 2014, 15:40 PM my answers: 1) Oberkommando - been only using them for a couple of days now but for now i like how they play 2) i still go with COH1 but with the changes to COH2 over the last year and the additional 2 armies it is getting closer. 3) i already played in the coh1 beta over 6 years ago. 4) 39 years 5) i welcome additional content for the game. tiger ace was silly though. 6) i feel totally indifferent about the matter . 7) berlin 8) 1v1 9) ladder games for me In: Lobby
Thread: big Poll16 Jul 2014, 15:08 PM Jump back to quoted post16 Jul 2014, 14:54 PMThe amazing Chandler I wanted to take part but i cant because some questions dont have the answer i want to give so: 1) Soviet 2)I love them both! 3) Fom more than 3 Years 4) 31-40 5)1 dislike DLC 6)I like it but it has major flaws! Give commanders to everybody with rank. Dont leave it to RNG. 7)Europe 8) 1v1 and 2v2, but i like the others too. 9)I prefer casual/ relaxed games vs humans but i also play with AI. the poll might not be perfect since i havent thought about if for long, and once posted i fail to edit it. it might have been best to give a "i cant tell / i dont know" option to some questions, but since it not in the poll in its current form: to participate one just has to pick the answer which he feels fits best in the moment.
