Lead sound director for coh1 was a female.
Which is the game imo, that had probably the best overall audio
Click the link for relic twitter I gave earlier.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Keep fucking dreaming. https://twitter.com/relicgames/status/1633606346477273089?s=20 https://www.ea.com/commitments/inclusion-and-diversity https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/company/about-us/diversity-inclusion https://www.dice.com/career-advice/activision-blizzard-faces-diversity-hiring-controversy https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/diversity/program/ List goes on, and on, and on, and on. Clown people are making our games on the "west". Meritocracy is dead in western AAA gaming. This is specifically why we have social messages constantly inserted into everything coming from western AAA and this is why everything is shit at release and ends up as shit abandonware within 1 year despite promisses of "years of support". Canada and US are completely obsessed and overtaken by these movements, entertainment and big tech is especially overrun and guess where all these AAA publishers and developers have their HQs located?

Every single developer dreams of recovery like No Mans Sky had, while every single publisher believes its OK to release the game in No Mans Sky release state, while lacking any kind of support and commitment to fix it. 6 months to 1 year, that's the lifespan of "life service games we will support for next 10 years", I'm really curious to see if it'll be any different for CoH3, but the trend is not promising much here.

Go through Relics own twitter feed. At least a handful of employees got the job, because they had vaginas, not required skill and experience level. In: COH3 Central |

But #1 will do absolutely nothing for multiplayer, at least the matchmaking part, which is driving wheels of CoH. In: COH3 Central |

Coh3s issues are far from unfixable though. Its not a problem of being fixable or not, its a leadership and priorities problem. You can't take an RTS game and turn it into life service. You can't prioritize monetizing the game before basic, staple QOL features even make it into the game. You can't expect retention if you hype up console release of that unfinished game before showing people that things they ask for are actually in active development. No one is stupid enough to believe in roadmaps to nowhere anymore. Is iron harvest a good time sink? I need a backup when coh3 folds in 6 months. As lonely old gamer manning my boring shop, i go back home to play coh2 regularly. It helps to sharpen my mind and dexterity, but i see an end of an era. I am loss which time sink to switch over? Campaigns are fine. MP is dead, tho might be a bit alife right now. In: COH3 Central |

I have no hope left, this is the end of CoH, imo. At least, I do not know any positive examples how studios(or even software development companies in general) overcome such issues. Only thing I can imagine for this game to live if they let community mod freely. I've seen layoffs like that first hand, 20% of company was let go(the publisher I worked at), they fucked suddenly 100 people while boasting about great financial situation just weeks earlier. Most of the people who were let go found much better jobs relatively fast, publisher itself also changed direction a bit and are doing ok now. Tho people who remained had massive workloads for quite some time. Shortly after I've decided to look for greener pastures, because it wasn't 1st layoff and I wasn't going to wait and find if they are going to go for 3rd one or not, they have proven to be irresponsible at top level.

Hiring for diversity instead of merit didn't paid off, eh, relic? How can it not be empty words? Relic strung along Dawn of War III players with promises of an "update" for two months before it was revealed that the "update" was that the game was being euthanized. They've done this whole thing before, with the exception that this time their survival as a company is in jeopardy. Well, one way or another, we'll know before the end of the year if it'll stand up or gets scrapped up. In: COH3 Central |
