0:when you start COH2 open 2 browser tabs, for one enter "
http://www.coh2.org/ladders/playersearch"
and for the other
"
http://steamidfinder.com/"
1:when you're loading into a game, SHIFT TAB click on 'players' then 'recently played' it should have your name, with your opponents name
2:click on your opponents name
3:go to the address bar, it should have a series of numbers, this is a STEAM ID. copy them and paste in the allocated field in "
http://www.coh2.org/ladders/playersearch"
4:if their ID is a custom steam URL (a name or something instead of the numbers) copy that and go to "
http://steamidfinder.com/" enter their name there and it should bring up their STEAM ID. go ahead and enter that into "
http://www.coh2.org/ladders/playersearch"
5 look at their coh2 ladder position! assess the situation!
this is another reason why censoring their ladder rank and then using a steam platform online system does not work at all. it's actually quite laughable. why do they not permit us seeing our opponents rank when we can just follow those steps and get much more information than we got in COH1?
anyway, i hope this helps some people, as i have been doing this in every match ever since the coh2 ladders came out
