Thread: Black Prince Poll20 Jul 2021, 20:58 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2021, 20:51 PMSwitzerland Considering it’s far from unanimous and less than 100 people so far, calling this a conclusive decision is silly lol. We might aswell deactivate the ability to make polls then since every poll is going to have that problem in the first place. 92 people is far from an irrelevant sample size considering those are likely to be part of the active community.

Thread: Black Prince Poll20 Jul 2021, 20:20 PM The poll shows that of the people that participated the larger part is against the Black Prince. The next logical step for those who want it in the game is to deny the results. In: COH3 Central

As much as playing KT or Strumtiger brings a lot of fun but overall it's much better if we don't add those extra heavies and focus on equipment that both sides had in 1942-43. I think we are on the same boat here. The people in this thread do not seriously demand the Sturmtiger or Konigstiger to be in the game. They are talking about those since it shows how blatantly absurd the BP is. In: COH3 Central

You mean things that never make it beyond prototype stage because they are... you know... unusable? So the BP was unusable and you think it belongs into the game. However if a German unit is unusable it should stay out of the game. That's some nice double standard. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Black Prince Poll19 Jul 2021, 16:20 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2021, 16:15 PMThe_rEd_bEar the Maus and panther 2 were not even out of the development stage, the kugelblitz may or may not have been used, the black prince was actually functional There was a complete Maus tank... even before the Black Prince. The 2nd Maus wasn't fit with the turret... the first one was. "In March 1944 the second prototype, the V2, was delivered. It differed in many details from the V1 prototype. In mid-1944, the V2 prototype was fitted with a powerplant and the first produced Maus turret. This turret was fitted with a 128 mm KwK 44 L/55 gun, a coaxial 75 mm KwK 44 L/36.5 gun and a coaxial 7.92 mm MG 34. The V1 prototype was supposed to be fitted with the second produced turret, but this never happened." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panzer_VIII_Maus So either we delete the BP or fully embrace the bullshit. if we don't care about which units were deployed, there is no reason the Maus shouldn't be ingame.

Thread: Black Prince Poll19 Jul 2021, 16:14 PM Currently a majority seems to be against the BP. Imo that's a siginificant number considering it is a vote against a late game heavy tank (extra stuff). In: COH3 Central
Thread: Black Prince Poll18 Jul 2021, 08:24 AM Better asking this early. The other thread didn't include a poll. The game is going to feature the Black Prince. A tank that wasn't used in the 2nd world war. Considering this game is going to focus on 1943 Italy and the devs announced that this was going to be a very special setting that they want to stay true to, I don't see how a Black Prince would fit. What would fit the setting are Churchills with 75mm or 6 Pounder guns... which would still be an improvement over the 2 Pounder Churchill. If we keep the Black Prince then this would open up possibilities to copy paste The Königstiger, Jagdpanther etc. into this game (tanks that were actually used in the war) and get the boring old super heavy gameplay. Thus I really feel the BP should be replaced with an actual unit that participated in the war. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Is the Black Prince supposed to be some kind of easter egg?18 Jul 2021, 07:51 AM Since the regular Churchill in Coh3 is going to have the 2 pounder, the Black Prince should be replaced with a Churchill that has a 6 pounder or 75 mm. At least these two versions were used in the war. Everything else is bullshit and seriously ruins the game for those with some historical knowledge. Even more so since in their presentation they told us that they want to focus on history in this game and that they want to stay true to the special setting. Or we go full retard: Then I would like to have the Königstiger, Jagdpanther, Jagdtiger etc. Those are Coh classics and don't make sense. However they still have more justification to be in this game than a post war prototype. If we get bullshit, then we should get bullshit for everyone. In: COH3 Central

OMG KILL RELIC NOW Absolutely avoidable, not needed and going against the flair of mid-war setting to set the game apart from former COH titles. Not even fitting the setting. In: COH3 Central
