Thread: CoH2 DLC Prices Revealed24 Jun 2013, 16:35 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Jun 2013, 16:30 PMsir muffin I'll have you know all of my mates are well informed in the price ripoff going on over here, but there is absolutely nothing we can do about it, due to the "core gamer" hobby being quite a rare one down here. I hope you generalise australian people around those "dumb aussie bogans" mate.. You're crusin' for a brusin' if ya keep acting like a poof LOL - well maybe I'm an expat? LOL I really feel bad for Aus mate. Next time you're at a JB Hi-Fi - just look for the bogan and the iphone seeing what they're able to buy that for OS.....it's actually pretty funny when you start noticing it. In: Lobby
Thread: CoH2 DLC Prices Revealed24 Jun 2013, 16:04 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Jun 2013, 15:27 PMsir muffin They're fucking over Aussies again. Commanders $4 and skins $3.75 That's because people there are stupid enough to pay whatever price they're being ripped off on - of course then they'll go whinge about it on theage or whatever - but if you're dumb enough to pay 110k for a 3 series - then you're dumb enough to pay $4 for this DLC cr@p. Not that you're dumb - I'm referring to the general bogan Aussie mentality there who didn't realize just how much they were getting ripped off till they all got iphones...LOL And seeing all this DLC now - with only a few hours till it goes official - I'm really glad I'm not getting this game anymore, I found over the last week, knowing the "free" COH2 time I had was going, I still didn't really want to play it, it just wasn't as much fun or rewarding for me. So that said - best of luck to those who chose to get in on day 1 - hopefully it gets a lot better! In: Lobby
Thread: Redsigning soviet army this is gonna be brits!!!!21 Jun 2013, 21:13 PM Thats the problem with it - you can easily kite a squad trying to panzerschreck you - the MG on car has good range and is really effective (unlike the scout car mg which is a complete joke) - and given the Germans only have 4 man squads, with that sniper you can cut that down to 2 really quickly inconjunction with the mg - so tehn you have a player who's dedicated to getting that clowncar, sniper fires again - now you have 1 inf. They do the intelligent thing - retreat. BUT the clown car chases them down too easily and the MG finished them off VERY simply. Garrison an MG in a building - easy - sniper picks them off - drive to the other side of the building - mg sets up - pick another off - drive back - and he'll either retreat (which you'll then chase them down again) or they just lose the MG in the building with the 3rd shot. The fact that a conscript with a SINGLE AT nade can destroy an upgunned scout car - just one nade - thats a heart breaker right there for the German player. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Redsigning soviet army this is gonna be brits!!!!21 Jun 2013, 20:21 PM For sh!ts and giggles last night - I fired up COH2 (as I really haven't felt a want to play it since the weekend - that's bad considering its currently FREE and I don't want to play it) - anyway - I fire it up, and after always going for a fast T70 or T34 I figure - "why not go a clown car and sniper and see what all the fuss is about?" The clown car and sniper got double vet in maybe 3 mins - was VERY easy to keep alive and basically that one unit enabled me to control the whole map - it could even TAKE points that I was simply harassing. The guy could literally do NOTHING - he tried the earliest counter he could think of after he'd lost 2 squads and an MG42 - a scout car. Lucky for me I was thinking that and one conscript and an at nade - boom - no more scout car. Get up some Shock troops (who dont even need ammo for the upgrade) and that blob effectively was untouchable. From there on - map control - German completely starved - I didn't even go T3 and straight to T4 - SU 85's and GG rage/quit. It was TOO easy with that sniper - the car barely took a hit due to the snipers range - then you just give it a small support squad to counter the scout car and you're pretty much home. They go Grens to counter - sure - shreck them up too - as the Shock Troops will just shred them also. All up - given the state of the German commanders not making any difference at all in which one you chose - Its definitely Soviet OP right now. The Sniper ended up with over 40 kills.

Thread: Maphack will destroy this game just like Coh121 Jun 2013, 15:32 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Jun 2013, 15:29 PMThe Shape Why maphack when there are no ranks? Just to pwn people into hating the game? For the lulz so to speak? Who knows what makes people map hack? But I certainly agree - the current ranking system is a complete joke that does nothing to inspire competitive play amongst online players. Oh - I won - you lost - we both got XP and a shinny new Rank! HI FIVE! In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: First (?) CoH2 review by PC Gamer21 Jun 2013, 15:28 PM Its difficult to base an opinion on that review since it relies solely (well 98%) on the single player campaign. That's like reviewing Battlefield 3 and only playing the single player (yes there is a single player campaign!!). It'd be interesting to see a seasoned multiplayer reviewer get into it - but I think the size of that can of worms might be unsettling..lol Personally I think COH2 will be in the $10 bin by Xmas. @Marcus: You'd REALLY give this 9.5/10????? Really? You sir are far too generous. In: Lobby
Thread: Maphack will destroy this game just like Coh121 Jun 2013, 15:25 PM With Relic insisting on P2P - it was only a matter of time for the maphack/synch hack to surface. When I found out they'd maintained the same exact networking system - I knew the frustrations would continue. The good news here is though that the COH Steam version is maphack free - so hopefully when Relic return to cleaning up that mess of a transfer - COH 1 will be better than ever. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better20 Jun 2013, 21:07 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jun 2013, 21:04 PMTheDGN WHo's trolling? This is a forum. Do you know what that is? If you do then you understand the point is to discuss topics of interest. Exactly - and this thread has been well and truly derailed from the original point of discussion - i.e. how to improve the game. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better20 Jun 2013, 20:59 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jun 2013, 18:02 PMMaestro Cretella You need to drop the attitude and fix yourself, because right now you are a poor representative of the game you love so much. YOU missed his point COMPLETELY. He has NO INTEREST in vCoH. That's his example. He likes CoH2 while vCoH simply never caught his interest. Your problem is that you're stuck thinking that experience from vCoH is the only valid perspective to view CoH2 from. It's certainly not a good sign that Relic seems to have alienated the series' most dedicated playerbase, but having vCoH experience is not a prerequisite to liking or disliking CoH2. Maybe YOU should real the full discussion before you throw your 2 cents into how I should behave. The poster is making a reference to COH2 being better than COH1 yet has limited/no COH experience - so I throw a rhetorical question/position at him stating that I have no idea of his game, yet what he's doing is the equivalent of me saying how much better DOW X is better than DOW Y yet I've got no experience with DOW at all besides that DOW X Beta. IE - How can you pass an opinion when you have no valid point of reference? Now that said - where did all the opinionated trolls suddenly appear from? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 4 things that would make CoH2 instantly better20 Jun 2013, 16:03 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jun 2013, 16:02 PMThe Dave Oh I remember them fondly. I also remember that COH on release was imbalanced and not polished either. It's an organic game so it'll change I hope. So do I mate - I really do. If COH2 even turns out to be half the game COH1 was and I only get half the enjoyment from it - that's still a good 3 years there of fun to be had. In: COH2 Gameplay
