Somthing very strange,,, COH2 Beta footage

2 things - your experience with beta version of coh 2 has got f all to do with what I am saying. Not relevant at all to the discussion, neither is the improvements to the be beta to now. Why you may ask?

The reason is that just about everything in the game we have now to the vidoes I am talking about is different, the way vehicles move, the way terrain gets blasted, they way grenades and flame works, the way physics work,the planes that deliver ordnance, the way mp works,the way squad and unit health works and the animations for death of infantry, the way paks and tanks shoot are all different - its not just cosmetic, the way things interact with the game world is not the same. The amount of extra detail is quite marked, its much more coh like then what coh2 is like right now... and

Point 2 - if you can honestly watch the beta casts from dane (1-4 havent seen the rest) and come back here and say the game in those vidoes and the game we have now is built of the same engine then I just cant help you.

wow you guys are still missing the point, I think the poster's point is that the game looks and sound better during the beta than it does now.

It shows how Relic "optimized" their game but removing some effects and visual quality to improve the game performance.

Priceless.

You have to dig deep and find out what really happened HS King.

All the puzzle pieces seem to be there.... but they aren't making any sense. Something is missing, something feels off. It's like there is something going on behind the curtains that is way to big for you, for me - for all of us.

Yes very funny.. still no good explanation as to why the beta version of the game not only looks, but runs faster, smoother and seemingly with none of the huge errors that plague it to this day - ie terrible inf combat, terrible rng, flame rng and one shot squad wipes, and my most hate issue non existant physics

Instead of posting nonsense in the forums go and play the game you're talking about lol
you're some random low skill player who thinks he can judge the game. Maybe you should take a look at the official forums there are tons of them. The issues you mentioned in this post have absolutely nothing to do with your stupid idea that there was a "different engine" in the beta. LOL what a load of ********, seriously.

Exactly. We have to find out why that is. Maybe we can interrogate playes who played the alpha/beta and ask the hard questions.

how about instead of posting a usless reply you watch the videos and realise you have no idea what you are talking about. You get a game severely downgraded and act as if nothing happened.

I play when I feel like it and im not the best player, but I have played both coh and coh 2 and I know coh2 feels nothing like the first game nor does it act in a manner that is shown in the videos.

As you can see a lot of the poeple that have watched more than 5 seconds of the videos agree with me if you want to be ignorant do it but dont cry to me about it

I feel like this topic has derailed and gotten out of hand, resulting in petty insults and trolling.

Omg dont you understand that in the end of development of a game they optimize it? Thats why sometimes games look worse in the final product than early screenshots
