Thread: Goodbye12 Mar 2014, 16:13 PM Well, thanks everybody. Except, of course, those of you who have chosen to attack my opinions, which I am entitled to. It might have been different, if the game were sold as a subscription service. Alas, it was not. (and I would not have been likely to buy in if it were)... And as much as I'd like to poke holes in a few of those arguments up there... I hardly see the point anymore. In: Lobby

Thread: Goodbye2 Mar 2014, 14:46 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2014, 13:41 PMNeph Are we talking about all DLC? Because this argument seems to be focused more around the Tiger Ace, which from what I've seen in the higher level games that I've watched over the last few weeks, has actually been more of a hindrance with the massive resource drain it causes (Edit: At least in 1v1/2v2's). Which means that if you can dance around the Tiger, harassing points and trading on MP the opponent is going to be able to keep up with the MP drain. As for other Commanders that provide a significant "I bought this and win" advantage", no others have been brought to my attention. Jesus. Just because I made one comment about the tiger ace, people are jumping on that as my reason for losing interest. Please stay on topic. My gripe is not about the balance issues particular to one commander, but rather how paid commanders as a whole upset game balance between those-who-bought-the-game and those-who-buy-every-fucking-dlc. The game is not fair. Even if I had spared no expense, my enjoyment would be diluted, knowing that I had in-game advantages which have little to do with my skill and knowledge of the game mechanics and its units.

I don't know why you posted about it though. Bye. But I did enjoy the game. I prepurchased, played through beta, and played very consistently until recently. Certain elements were improvements over CoH1, but the paid commander model frustrated me to the point where it was no longer fun. In: Lobby
Thread: Goodbye2 Mar 2014, 03:23 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Mar 2014, 02:19 AMwooof its the same as a normal tiger that has vet 3. kind of funny to call it "super range" when its still 10 less than an su85. and its "super speed" is only when blitzing, otherwise an su85 can outrun it. su85s easily handle the new tiger ace. Plz stay on-topic. This isn't about balance issues particular to ONE commander. In: Lobby
Thread: Goodbye1 Mar 2014, 23:44 PM That's beside the point, which is that people who pay for commanders get a broader range of strategic choices, and those who don't are at a disadvantage because we are unable to test the meta for its strengths and weaknesses. A limited number of abilities - like in CoH1 - is vastly preferential, because you are able to anticipate which avenue your opponent might go down - impossible with a growing base of premium commanders.

Nothing says fuck you like beating a Tiger ace with Soviet Shock Army. Oh sure, feels great when you win... but it's a real drag to be run over by level3 tigers from nowhere In: Lobby
Thread: Goodbye1 Mar 2014, 21:52 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Mar 2014, 19:24 PMStoffa This thread feels kinda trolly. Sure, Stoffa, it's all been said a thousand times before. There's still people who fanatically defend their perspectives. I was somewhat more moderate in my stance on this issue in the past. I guess I just wanted to update the community on my position, and maybe clarify why I haven't really been playing in the last month or two. In: Lobby
Thread: Goodbye1 Mar 2014, 19:02 PM Yes, the constant expectation to purchase 3.99 (times, what, 20?) items is a strain. I already paid in excess of $60 for the game. I played through balance patches and it remains my opinion that the game has been a waste of money. I am not interested in playing compstomps - victory over a computer "opponent" bears little gratification. The paid-commander model is game-breaking, money-grubbing garbage. In: Lobby
