Went yesterday to baserape,had 3 Panzer 4's,which one was vet 2 and the others where vet 1...Destroyed 2 SU-85's,1 T34,2 T34-85's and my only casualty was the vet 2 Panzer,which it was no biggie because the other two were promoted,so yeah if you are smarter than a worm,which I doubt you are,Panzer 4 can win you the game,so please stop your schnitzel eater nazi mouth from bitching...
Yesterday I had 3 pios, 1 shrek. I killed 10 su 85s with my mind and a stick of german butter. My opponent was like "o shizam V mec you so cool", it turned out to be a hot lovely Brazilian beauty queen.We then rode off in to the Sunset and made sweet sweet love. So Stop your stupid Nazi Buttholes on yo faces from spewing. Of course I don't have a replay but just believe me |
With the online population dwindling away, putting money into servers don't sound like an attractive option |
I like to add that its a stupid, cheeseball and one of the least liked abilities in coh that slithered its way into coh2.... |
Thanks, I stand corrected. Decent sales figures and will rise in the next couple of months. Unfortunately it does SEEM the more casual gamer has bought it. I still have a pretty hard time finding players during peak hours (3-9pm Weekdays). When I click find match and see 4-7 people searching, that doesn't look good. I understand its searching within my skill range but still.
In all honesty, I really feel the game has lost a lot of its steam (no pun intended), and I can't understand why with leaderboards up, new patchs coming, and some decent features added.
Well I can only speak for myself, but keep in mind, I was a hard core coh fanatic. I just wasnt having fun with multiplayer and have stopped playing till I see something interesting. Maybe thats the case for a lot of people who knows, but I do know before I stopped playing it got harder and harder to find a match.
Something big might need to happen to get players back in the spirit.
May I suggest Giant Hitler and Stalin Robots that launch laser cannon equipped drones? With the same exact stats so none can cry op!!
Or get rid of blizzards.. that ll do as well |
I predict they add an extra man to base bunker, Decrease the su 85s speed but allow it to move sideways and allow snipers to catch rides on katusha and panzerwerfer rockets whilst also being able to fire while in flight. |
Whatever the case, the obvious point is the gameplay feels drastically different and less satisfying. Units feel like they rely more on luck than being a capable, trained and equipped fighting entity.In coh if you had an at gun, YOU HAD ANTI TANK. In coh 2 an at gun can be effective with luck or it will be a cannon-fodder manpower sink most likely. Blehh.
By design alot of the least satisfying elements of coh were made more prominent and what you get is a game that had across the board accolades in the first version, to the second version having the hardcore community tearing itself apart. Even on the official review sites, it's getting bad critic scores, and the good scores almost always come with a but. Coh 2 sold well because Coh was a epic game. But with all this flak I dont see expansions or Coh 3 doing well unless the "feel" of the original returns. |
I see it didnt take long for people to start flaunting their player rank lol.... |
I understand the point of the Sov players as they dont have any really vehicle anti tank defense without su 85 or doctrinal t34-85s. The su 85s were not a problem until the heavy nerfs to the German armor, which I agree may have been a little strong at the start. But combined with the stug range and over usefulness reduction , Panther nerf and p4 although buffed got a speed nerf, all combined to make the Su 85 the new King of the Battlefield. While I understand their aim, balancing the entire arsenal of tanks at one time seemed obvious it was going to be trouble.
I think we need more variety in tanks in the first place and tank discrepancies won't hit either side so harshly. Bring in some hetzers and marders and make t34-85 a upgrade, land lease shermans, ap rounds for su 76 so they are not useless etc....Also tanks are so costly compared to coh it makes the the armor battle drastically different. Make at guns overall better. Right now the game is stuck in P4 vs SU 85. Gets real boring fast. |
I got so frustrated and bored I just stopped playing. I believe the dev team are doing their best but some of the design decisions took a great game and made it feel blah. I un-installed weeks ago which was hard to do because I love what coh was and can be, and I spent as much money as I could on the Coh series to show support,(Coh retail, Tales of Valor retail, Coh steam with all expansions, spent over 100 dollars in coho, coh2 collectors edition...)but coh 2 seems like more of a chore playing then fun. Even with all the mindblowingly massive imbalances in coho online, it was still loads of fun because you had so many choices. Now it just feels like a watered down coh.......I wonder if there was such a great focus on single player that multi became an afterthought, but the longevity of the game will suffer if multiplayers lose enthusiaism |
fair game or no its cheeseball and sucks the fun out of the game.
I cant believe after the kangeroo disaster that we get the kangeroo light, but only earlier and by earlier, i mean almost the start of the freaking game.
I agree with combat muffin about the tiers, The first tiers hold so little value now thats its about getting out of them as quick possible rather then actually being a useful part of your army. |
