Thread: People thought relic was going to close down 201814 Dec 2021, 16:26 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Dec 2021, 16:20 PMBasedSecretary I have to disagree with you in some aspects. I like COH2's cover art a lot. Sure, I get that in many respects is not exactly historically accurate but I believe it portrays the struggle of the Soviet people [and the Soviet state, NKVD and all] to repel an invasion that for a while seemed certain to win. In that commisar's face I see determination, hard realism and above all resolution to win no matter the losses. Also, the background showing soldiers running disorderly with T34s by their side shows the "all or nothing" psyche that has characterised the Soviet people in most of the normie literature we have today. And for that I like it. Sure the coat's style might be inaccurate (never bothered to research this) but I feel that the struggle is well presented in this way. Red Alert or not, the cover art is badass. But don't take this the wrong way. I can see where your point is. Just read the real story of photography "Kombat" is a junior political commissar who raised the pinned soldiers to attack and died immediately. This is a photograph taken just moments before his death. Or take this photo for example, it perfectly shows the mood of the game, and there are many such photos. In: Lobby

The cover art for me is one of the cringiest I have seen all my life. I hope they change it. Just look at COH2's which I believe has the best artistic design out of all three. The cover shows a commisar with a coat hard at work at defending his motherland. COH3's cover shows a weird us soldier looking at you while a hard hatted german and a faggotcuck spectacle man lay in the rainbow painted background. I get that Mediterranean theater is supposed to look more "bright" in contrast with Eastern Theater's grim aesthetic but cmon. Although the design of the CoH2 is good, the commissioner's design is very horrible and ridiculous. He is stereotypically awful and his uniform is something from the Red Alert and not from the Second World War. It's a mixture of post-war designations with terrible medals, just like the Red Alert. I don’t understand what prevented from taking a real photograph and interpreting it for game design, for example, the famous photograph "Kombat" which is one of the symbols of war. But apparently what is the plot of the game and his personification - the Red Alert. In: Lobby

Especially the Soviet barbed wire, why can't we bring it back? This is a really interesting and unique mechanic. https://youtu.be/iGayHh6yQu8?t=227 In: Lobby

We all love COH2 but it's not a terribly high bar for COH3 to improve upon. Heck, better designed factions with full unit rosters and a better non-doctrinal unit system alone is probably enough to put COH3 > COH2 It's completely subjective. I love the Imperial Guard at Warhammer 40,000 and I might even have bought the horrible DoW3 if IG was in it. I like the USSR more, so I don't really want to play the same factions for the third time. I just got bored after playing a little alpha multiplayer. The only reason I will buy is if the Italian faction is and will be as an independent faction and not a battlegroup for Germany. And my friends with whom I play in СoH were not thrilled with playing the same factions for the third time. In: Lobby
Thread: Poll on new zoom out level in CoH3 alpha6 Dec 2021, 07:14 AM In the Company of Heroes of the series, I have always liked looking at detailed elaborate soldiers. And in the previous parts, I don't need to zoom the camera as close as possible to see it. in CoH1 and 2 you can play and have a visual pleasure. CoH3 does not, and the interface as a whole is rather poor, it is very difficult to navigate in it. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Which SOV squad should replace Penals as AT infantry?1 Dec 2021, 18:46 PM Penals should have been removed from T1 long ago and done something like Osttruppen. Give SVT-40 to conscripts as an upgrade. Penals have the dog's fifth paw, they had no place in the tiers from the very beginning and always overlapped the role with another infantry unit.

Thread: E8 feels bad to use1 Dec 2021, 05:31 AM Yes, this is very bad, yesterday I destroyed Brummbar for a few minutes by shooting his engine. This is ridiculous. Another aspect that I don't like about E8 is the additional infantry unit that comes with it. I don't need him, like the captain and other unnecessary units. In: COH3 Central

Thread: [Relic][Dev Diary] Core Gameplay Experience23 Nov 2021, 10:21 AM Jump back to quoted post23 Nov 2021, 01:07 AMSpanky All good man, I wasn't aware of you being around since CoH1, nothing personal. When CoH2 was announced Relic was struggling with their publisher and CoH2 seemed rather rushed. A lot of people left out of frustration. So here's the difference, CoH2 was mostly Relics vision/time pressure and it was too late to make major changes when the community was involved but CoH3 is day 1 community feedback and has had a longer time in development. It is hard to believe it but as I see it we have it pretty good right now. Also AoE4 being a success only helps the process. Well this is subjective. Some may see the involvement of some tournament players as making the game for themselves. Уxample - many of my friends left CoH2 after the community became involved in creating patches and they began to believe that a bunch of people started making the game for themselves. And I will try to alleviate this concern. Already, there is a definite tendency for "e-sports" to be seen in Alpha. No abandoned armored vehicles, smashing paratroopers on the ground upon landing, etc. Personally, it was fine for me. But there are a lot of topics about RNG, abandoned armored vehicles and how bad it is for tournaments. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Some Soviet vehicle abilities change ideas.19 Nov 2021, 05:50 AM For many years there has been this conversation about the fact that the Soviet 1st veteran ability or Ram ability is useless. The T-34-76 clearly needs something like "Fire and Maneuver" - acceleration to make it a flank tank and the T-34-85 needs smoke bombs to improve its survivability to emphasize its premium doctrinal nature.
