While we definitely read COH2.ORG and value the contributions people make here, our focus in communicating is generally going to be on our own forums. We'll pop in here once and awhile but are focused on working on the game itself.
What you are saying is that you are not caring about this website, in more company-related language.
You are making a huge mistake, your key-players are here and not at the very poorly graphically designed website of companyofheroes.com. Yes I said it, the layout is a mess.
Related quote on another topic;
The time that companies communicated behind doors and only brought out vague comments to the outside world has passed a long time. If they can't communicate more open to a community of more than 8000 members, they will take the loss. Some of us will keep on playing, but if the keyfigures of the game go over to another game, the game is doomed.
Let me be clear, the following keyplayers / coh2 related things are on a serious break / left the game / are not active / not serious anymore about the game;
- Ipkai
- Ami
- Reborn
- Rogers (RNP)
- Milka
- SNF (streams are off since ... ?)
- Rewind
- Siberian
- HelpingHans
- ESL
- So much more I can't think of right now.
- ...
(Sorry if I wrote your name and you're very active and positive about the game)
This should be alarming for Relic, and they should see this as TOP priority to gain them back.
It's not just a few players who lost interest,. It's about streaming, charismatic people, community keyplayers, ... It's about losing your ambassadors of the game.
Some people who are into marketing know the word Ambassador is widely used and seen as one of the main focusses of companies, in Europe it is. Get ambassadors and they spread the word.
I've seen it with my own eyes in Enemy Territory.
The pro's leave to another game, the caster and competitive designers go? Well the scene is as death as a turtle trying to cross a highway.
They need to see this community as a TOOL they can use.
In that scenario, we would win and they would win.
