Thread: 2vs2 Winrates15 May 2015, 20:32 PM Jump back to quoted post15 May 2015, 18:23 PMThe_rEd_bEar I want to see real relic stats not a random reddit post So we are good with legends stats when he proved axis had an advantage, now that the terms have flipped we need 'real' data. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: repetitiveness and spam, the true disease of this game14 May 2015, 22:01 PM Lol when has blobbing and spam not been apart of the coh series? This post is so dramatic. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Cooldown bulletins- how good are they?13 May 2015, 22:25 PM Individually, not anything game changing. If they do stack, and some do - they can definitely help. The problem is there is no real data or response from Relic on which do (I think). In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: The queue for AT is too damn high!12 May 2015, 21:51 PM Jump back to quoted post12 May 2015, 20:40 PMInverse That would introduce fragmentation to the automatch pool, which means longer wait times and less balanced matchups in general for everyone, especially people who don't opt for faster games at the expense of balanced matches. And honestly, no regular player is going to opt into getting destroyed by someone far better than them, which is what an option like this would essentially be. Call me crazy but I never care or cared about losing. I remember getting crushed for like 3 straight years in coh1. When you lose, yeah it sucks initially, but there is a lot to learn from losses, more than wins. I doubt any of the guys in the top 1v1 didn't have their fair share of getting shit on. They probably worked hard to get where there at. Now we get to read public announcements about people not playing till the game is 'fixed'. There are custom games if people are really concerned about playing games in a vacuum, but I selected matchmaking ladder for a reason. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: The queue for AT is too damn high!12 May 2015, 20:10 PM Jump back to quoted post12 May 2015, 19:29 PMInverse But that still negatively affects other players by making it more likely that they experience an imbalanced matchup. Scaling is already in place to expand your pool of potential matches as your queue time increases. Accelerating that scaling artificially would screw up the balance of equal matches vs. queue times that's built into the algorithm. Even if it matched us with other 'fast' search players? By selecting fast search you would basically be forfeiting a balanced approach. Either way it looks pretty grim, guess ill just keep playing arkanoid while I wait. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: The queue for AT is too damn high!12 May 2015, 19:05 PM Jump back to quoted post12 May 2015, 18:58 PMInverse The correct solution is somewhere in between. Some system that balances finding even matches with limiting players to reasonable queue times. If only Relic implemented a system like that... Wait a minute... Yeah and that was kind of the crux of my post. Whats the point in waiting 10+ minutes when the games are generally not competitive anyway. Halo had an option where if you didn't want to wait for a balanced game you could speed the process up. Coh2 doesn't have the playerbase to warrant this so we may as well skip the waiting time because those teams with similar skill aren't going to magically appear. We wait the 10+ minutes just to get put in an unbalanced game. As far as the first part of this post I couldn't agree more. Its not my fault if you play a team game with the thought that its all for fun and expect everyone to shelter your feelings. If you want to win - play comp stomps or custom, not in a team ladder game mode. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: The queue for AT is too damn high!12 May 2015, 18:12 PM Jump back to quoted post12 May 2015, 18:05 PMkamk I'm not talking about punishing teams, nor certain modes & factions, i'm talking about complete bullshit matches and free wins. If you consider free wins as glorious gameplay, then you'll probably won't understand, but i doubt you're like that. *We play as a team because we enjoy the team aspect and each others company - wins are wins, free or not.* Think about it differently: the majority of COH players doesn't play COH for the competition, they play for fun. And getting instantly owned is the opposite of fun. So they will quit, and so do the actual competitive random mates they may have had once (they give up on certain random matches, because they just get literal scrubs anyways, so what's the point) So what happens? - you lose the casual playerbase - you lose the competitive playerbase ... and you face even more beginners who are still brave enough to roll the dice, till they also give up. *If you are going to run away because you are losing then goodbye* Maybe it's just me, but my most enjoyable games were the ones that lasted, or where i could at least see what i did wrong / right, and not the ones when i had to play 1v2 from start, or could base siege the enemy 5 minutes into the game - both are utterly, excuse my language, retarded. *Agreed, the longer competitive games are much better but I dont see why waiting 10 erroneous minutes has anything to do it with.* In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: The queue for AT is too damn high!12 May 2015, 17:45 PM Jump back to quoted post12 May 2015, 16:54 PMWingZero For the record, I was talking about allies, but waiting as axis as well. The 10 minutes is a waste because 99% of the time its not finding a balanced match anyway. So why the wait, why not just let us play with the next available group. Kamk, it doesn't make sense to punish teams for playing well together. Losing is part of the game and its also a great learning experience for those who may not have as much experience. If you are worried you are going to get stomped then I think the onus is on the player, not the other teams. In: COH2 Gameplay

SHOUT IT OUT!

aerafield: @LimaOscarMike I would say nowadays is a decent time to try CoH3. If you loved CoH2 however, there is a solid chance you're gonna dislike CoH3
Today, 17:04 PM

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?
Last Saturday, 05:10 AM

Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.
Last Saturday, 04:43 AM

Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
