Thread: What unit do you miss from COH1?4 Nov 2013, 09:39 AM THE JEEP! Pushing, especially and the versatile mobility + a decent survivability for nothing but MP. Plus an occasional game of jeep spam for giggles. In: Lobby
Thread: Strafe during blizzard3 Nov 2013, 16:44 PM I just noticed in a game how a strafe called in during the last seconds BEFORE the blizzard set in, continued for its entire duration DURING the blizzard. Since you cannot order a strafe during blizzard, should it not also stop working during a blizzard? And is it not at the players' risk to waste some of the ammo used on the strafe? I mean: the blizzard is announced long before so it's a question of the player paying attention. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Is the Soviets underpowered in team games?3 Nov 2013, 16:36 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Nov 2013, 11:11 AMBabaRoga currently ranked 100,000 4v4 as Soviet, took me 3 games to get to 4000 in 1v1. I feel your pain, I feel like crying when I see what total noobs i play with/vs. What I mean by map design: If you have maps with a lot of LoS obstacles and not much open ground, you always gonna struggle to counter Panthers with SU85's and t34's. They are easily flankable by armor and PG's. You cannot fight effectively among city building with Su85's or Zis and have no true AT infantry. If you have maps that are fully open, than Germans are fucked because they gonna get raped by SU85's long range and snipers. You can make combination of those features on the map to equalize the armies. I wouldn't have high hopes of Relic doing and testing this, but once they release map making tools there will be some good maps created by community (like COH Redball). Which would only leave the problem of matchmaking sucking OK, I get your point. And the good example of what you are saying is the way the germans almostalways stomp the late game right and center of City 17. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Suggestion: 1v1 wins required to join team games3 Nov 2013, 16:31 PM Jump back to quoted post1 Nov 2013, 18:35 PMTurtle Both the OP and Nullist's posts is typical of the wanna be elitist posts and mindset that drags down RTS gaming communities. I strongly object to any linking between myself and Trollist! In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Full list of xp gain?3 Nov 2013, 16:26 PM Nope. Any campfire. Including those on the map per default. Anyway: Nothing else? Really? Noone? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Ask the Strategist!1 Nov 2013, 10:35 AM Does the size of a building matter to how fast units enter, exit or reface in it? It seems to me that MGs take a lot longer to do those actions in a small Building than a large. However, it could be for the reason that smaller Buildings usually have fewer doors and Windows?

Thread: Suggestion: 1v1 wins required to join team games1 Nov 2013, 10:32 AM It's pretty frustrating to get teamed up with someone who obviously knows next to nothing about the game. And I'm not talking about bad play, but players who for example move one unit at the time or don't realise that they start with a pioneer and thus never uses it. IMO it would be nothing more than fair to demand, that you have shown a minimum of ability before you are allowed to join team games. It's perfectly OK for players to ruin their own games in 1v1, but ruining it for team mates is not. Therefore I suggest that Relic introduces some kind of result based requirement to enter team games. Like for example having won at least 5 1v1 games. Anyone with a minimum of skill should be able to meet that criterion. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Is the Soviets underpowered in team games?1 Nov 2013, 10:23 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Nov 2013, 05:16 AMBabaRoga The best and easiest way to balance 3v3's and 4v4's is in map design. Where points are, terrain, buildings, etc. that is why Red Ball and Montarigis were the most equalizing maps in VCOH. They took away opportunities to quickly exploit one sides advantage and gave other side chance. Simple change to starting location would make both Mont and Redball almost un-winable for axis... and of course have teams made up of players with equal-ish skill. Which is almost never the case with current automatch system I don't see how a map change would change anything unless axis always starts at certain locations - which is not going to happen. Wrt. shitty teaming up that was also a problem in COH1. There seems to be a cut-off somewhere where you can shake the total noobs, but if you sink below that certain threshold, you risk ending up in a long losing streak because of total newbie teammates. My score has been swinging up and down for that reason. And it pains me each time I see that I've been put back in the pool of players eligible for newbie-match up because it takes a lot of Work to win a team game on your own :/ In: COH2 Balance
