You are right tho, its really find to hard info. Heaps of clutter

That is bad balancing.
As I've said, it gets fixed.

If your conspiracy theory would be true, then all DLC commanders would be OP and then nerfed.

They are not. Only 2 were most evident cases and both are getting more hefty nerfs soon to get them in line, because that is the ultimate point-having all commanders in line with each other, so they offer more options, not better ones.

The only cases of OP commanders come from bad or ignored feedback on beta forums I assume, since I don't believe beta players didn't noticed how much bs TA was.

Also, even if the new commanders will be perfectly balanced on day 1 since their release, they will still 'break balance' for you, because they might bring in something you havent faced before and you won't know how to deal with it at first, but that doesn't mean the commander is OP, it just means meta got expanded and you need to adjust.
That is of course a perfect situation, since there will most likely always be some balance concerns with new commanders, some will be op, some will be up, some will be fine, give it time and all will be just as strong.

It is not balancing issue if guys on balancing server continuously point to the fact that commander/unit is OP as hell but it gets released anyway. In one case I am aware of, unit even got buffed before being released for sale.

You even had Dev say that final decision is not in their hands entirely and that they have to co-ordinate with marketing department etc.

Finally, please stop assuming that people and myself complain about DLC and OP units just because we are noobs.
There are many much better players than yourself that call these units OP and P2W.

If you do not see correlation between nerfs to DLC units and 'people learning to deal with them' then there is nothing else I can say really.

I am very well aware that people come up with strategies to deal with units but you conveniently keep ignoring the fact that players find the ways to abuse unit more effectively at the same time.

Both strategies evolve simultaneously, and OP unit will stay OP unit.

I learned to deal vs Kangaroo carrier, but my entire gameplan consisted of trying to survive Roo spam.
I call that OP, you can call it whatever you wish

DLC commander comes out - DLC commander gets heavy nerf - DLC commander gets another nerf. After its been tested out by Devs and on balance servers.

Just because you can beat someone with DLC commander it doesn't mean its not P2W

P.S. you have to take into consideration that lower down the skill levels you go, that Tiger Ace, Ass Grens, etc become harder to deal with by many factors.

Just because OMGPOP or Siberian can find tactics to kill Tiger Ace or deal with S. industry it doesn't mean that it isn't P2W for some poor guy ranked 38,000 who has problem killing Panther

You have to sometimes look through other peoples perspective not just your own opinion and experience

Not entirely true. You're more likely to make it without losing any men in CoH2, RNG decides the fight whether you charged over red cover or not because of how equal Grens vs Cons are, and Gren armour itself being RNG.

The real reason you lose men charging in CoH1 and not in CoH2 is health differences. In CoH1, Riflemen had 55 health. In CoH2, Conscripts (and just about every unit in the game) have 80.

I was giving, as you conveniently left out, 'simplest explanation' to someone who didn't understand what do people mean when they complain about RNG in COH2 that wasn't there in COH1.

And I ended it with further explanation: 'Basically in COH you could be quite certain of outcome of engagement while in COH2 margin is blurry and a lot more unpredictable. Making it quite hard to make good decisions. "
Which you again conveniently left out.

Some guy, twisted and chopped my post to prove me wrong.

Ok, I can live with that. But at least when you do things like that, try not to shoot yourself in the leg by being inaccurate

Thanks

Okay Inverse, so we both agree that you need a community that wants to play a game competitive - well we have that for CoH 2.

I really don't see the problem then...

Let me simplify it as possible for you.

COH2 had massive following before it was even released.
Player base, casters, streamers, pro players, skirmishers, 1v1 players, 4v4 players. Sites like this one, promotion from existing COH player base, moders, map makers, former COH fans etc etc.
All ready and hardly waiting to play COH2
Discussions what player base wanted improved, changed, looked at. etc between developers and community was there; Promises, vision of the game etc were given.

Somewhere down the line Relic decides that it wants to target 'casual' and new players and make game appealing to that market.

Immediately 150,000,000 strong Russian market that wanted to play COH2 for obvious reasons is up in arms over the way Soviets are portrayed. (don't wanna go into validity, but none the less huge market lost)

Shortly after release 'casual' players (team games, skirmish, basic annihilate COH players) slowly realize that custom game lobby isn't in the plan, and those people for whom the game is supposed to be catered start spamming forums asking for custom lobby, etc. Eventually they give up and start leaving game in droves.

You get new players who find it to difficult to master Soviet units. Calling SU85 worthless and Cons useless and playing German = auto win. No one wants to play Soviet and 95% of time everyone searches as German. After long wait naturally they get a game vs experienced VCOH players who troll them and wipe them.
They endlessly complain on Steam forums, eventually abandoning the game in droves.
Lastly 'Pros' (1v1 players), who were this entire time been hopeful and taunting 'casuals' how their game mode is not important and arguing against Custom lobby, and telling newbies that they are stupid and L2P, realize that nothing is changing.
They start abandoning the game together with casters, streamers

And here we are right now, with people who find the game good thinking that community is toxic and Relic is doing everything in their power to make the game the best for everyone.

I am sorry, but I cannot agree with you that few people like Basilione and Inverse or me are guilty party because COH2 doesn't have large enough community.
I cannot also agree with Noun that it's casters fault that people don't watch casts
And I cannot see why Relic expects free promo from people who were deeply involved with COH franchise and spent countless hours working for free to make the COH what it was. When they were and still are clearly let down

The pattern clearly shows where the problem lies.

You like the game, great for you. I still play occasionally, but no I don't find the game that interesting or fun to play.

I do hope tho, like all the people here that waste their time and 'bitch' about the game they don't even like

Good hunting to you
