Can confirm, lend lease is slowly becoming the shit with T1/T2 to T4. |
I play non-meta 95% of the time and I face meta 95% of the time.
Even I, who is so vocal about balance and non-meta play, sometimes get tired of getting crushed by abusive strategies and then I have to vent a bit. Can I have at least that without being brandished as a hypocrite?
I'm specifically referring to the kubel replay you no doubt remember. That was a bit over the top no? |
Worse BM'er than Alladin? 
Alladin is a special quality sturmdaddy dat only gets mad sometimes  |
Forgive me for not saying GG WP every time I face the same boring meta play or abuse of imbalanced features. Most of the things I have moaned about have either already been changed or are on the agenda to be changed, so'd I'd say that most of my complaints have been legitimate complains.
Its not a matter of you not saying GGWP, its you literally flaming people that you are playing against because of your own perceived balance/meta issues. I still remember the one time I played USF against you on launch, I had you base pinned within 5 minutes on Semois, and you flamed me for literally 20 minutes about how I was some no skill scrub and then proceeded to call in your Tiger Ace.
So you don't think you were at least a bit hypocritical?
Otherwise, yes, you generally do bring up valid points and are a good player to boot, which is why I respect your balance opinions on these forums. |
Because CoH isn't CS:GO. Correct me if I'm wrong, but is CS:GO harder to play as any one side than the other at lower skill levels?
You play as both sides in competitive CSGO. 15 rounds as each side, first to 16 wins. In CoH 2 tournaments, you play as both factions, BO3 or BO5.
'Casual' CSGO, which we can semi compare to automatch in CoH 2 because of one metric, which is that you only play as one side, the team weapons are all fairly balanced, but it becomes more an issue of map balance. Certain maps can favour the defending CTs or aggressing Ts, and when you move out of the balance of 5v5 competitive CSGO to 10v10 casual games (just like going from CoH 2 1v1s-2v2s to 3s and 4) the game starts becoming less and less balanced exponentially. |

Ok, so now you've admitted that a game like CSGO, which is an EXTREMELY successful esport, is balanced from the top? So why do you keep on insisting that CoH should somehow be any different? |
What you've just shown me, is a change to the game that benefits all players, with the help of the pro's that play it.
Not a change to the game that benefits just the pro's and "fuck you other guys".
Are you just making up shit for the sake of it?
You as a player are what would be called a Silver tier player in CSGO. The balance update that was done in 2013 that affected recoil negatively affected silver tier, because now it is harder for them to spray and aim every single gun, and the better players that understand the deeper mechanics of movement in positioning in CSGO will trash the silver players easily. This is literally the same thing in CoH, when things like the 120mm crutch mortar got nerfed, or the Tiger Ace, and people cried on the forums since they could no longer abuse it. |

"Blizzard's lead balance designer sits down to address some of the feedback from professional StarCraft 2 players that Blizzard received during the G-Star event in Korea. Kim talks about many topic that have gathered head like terran MULEs and EMP, larvae inject mechanics and the variety in protoss playstyles."
Please, choke on your words |
I asked for you to provide the sources for the games you mentioned. If you can't provide them, I'll have to assume it's your assumption, and not a fact like you presented it.

"Today’s update is a big one. After gathering feedback from pro players around the world, we’ve made significant changes to weapon balance with global changes to recoil that affect all weapons, as well as specific adjustments to rifles, pistols, and the P90. We’ve also made some changes to the messaging system, so check the notes for details."
From Valve themselves. If you think Dota 2 or any of the other mentioned games are any different when they fill the exact same developer intent of esports/competitive play, then you just have your fingers in your ears.

Are you, or are you not buddies with Brad? If you are, then you have an ear at Relic. Can you ask him about the data, or ask him to ask someone else about it?
I don't give a shit about the rest of the stuff you posted.
*Flashbacks to 2014*
Why even bring that up in the first place? Theres my whole explanation, if you don't give a shit then don't even bother replying.
I can and have asked him in the Private test forums and testing matches before about these proper stats, its not up to him who releases stats or not. |
