But, as far as ice is concerned, it's heavily flawed: all ice is the same, whereas there is water that is shallow enough to cross with units. Since there's no differentiation of depth for ice, you have tanks phasing through solid ground because the front tracks were on 1 inch deep ice. This is still actually a problem and wasn't fixed by removing cold tech.



This isn't exactly accurate. The tanks that sink as you describe on ice is because the difference between the ice (water level) and the ground that a portion of the tank is on is higher than .5 meters (I believe this is the max, but it might be .6, cant remember). You could have a tank drive on ice, have the ice break and NOT SINK, but the way maps are made it currently bugs out hard because the ground level and water level are so drastic in such a short distance.

You could make an entire map with water/ice (for sliding effect on vehicles) that NEVER sink, if done correctly.

I did this on, the 2nd map (?) I had ever streamed and tested, just to see if it worked.

TLDR; the same rules apply for water shallows as they do for ice shallows.

I did like it that when a blizzard arrived your line of sight got reduced and that you couldn't use planes or other off maps.

I think introducing those elements back into the game would be interesting for multiplayer.

And then it dies. What are your expectations for CoH 4?

Poor, beta-esque design flaws still present 6 months into launch

Completely ignore player feedback for ages (sniper in HT is no fun!" "Lol, we'll fix that sometime")

Awful voice acting

Streamers rushing to find boring abuse strats

Gimmicky feature like "Hunger Tech" where if you don't feed soldiers every 5 min, they run away. Best food will be DLC

I Actually liked coh 2's voice acting. company of heroes 1s voice acting was funny, but i liked more of "realistic" approach in second installment.

Good to know. 0.5 is certainly the magic number for worldbuilder :D

Point is though, shallow ice never functionally materialized in coh2, ostensibly due to this kind of subtle nuance in map design that had massive gameplay implications.

Realistic? They got B-list SNL comedians in to do German and Russian impersonations.

Go watch a cast of a coh1 semoisky game, listen how they whisper. Listen to the snioers. Great voice acting.

Soviets are a travesty. They didn't even ask a Russian to check it and it's full of mistakes. Also, they seemed to make them speak like an Ork army. Bad. Very bad.

Balance balance balance. I want COH3 to be more E-sport oriented! We need to keep RTS genre alive!

Company Heroes 2 from the start of the game was positioned as an E-sport game, the result: a failure. The Dawn of War 3 was fully dedicated to E-sport, the result:
absolutely disgusting game, in which 400 people are now playing, about the same number of people are now playing in the old Dawn of War 2. Conclusion: it's not right to build garbage under the name E-sport, need to build an excellent RTS. If the game is great - E-Sport will come all the way

By realistic i mean't how units voice acting is done to reflect situation. in Coh 1 riflemen talked like "fucking jerry asshole bastards attacking" style, bit comedic way. In coh 2 units are bit more realistic when they are under attack, yelling and screaming more reasonably (maybe expect brits). Also the fact that at least ostheer and soviet units yelled when they were losing men seriously feeled bad (at least first. However this was dropped with western front factions. Yeah russian voice acting was quite bad i give you that, but at least germans were fine.

Very well done! :clap:

I would also like to see an opening screen that is some form of intelligence test so you cant play unless your IQ is above a certain level. Just had a nice team killer game :sibToxic:

EDIT: What happened to the KICK system from COH1. It would be great if after 1 minute you can kick a player off your team. In a 4v4, about every 3rd game you have someone AFK, team killer, or is seriously mental. And there is nothing as a team you can do about it SeemsGoodMan #EsportsReady.

I just played with some tard that didnt play for 4 minutes, got rekt, then quit. Insta-loss for his team. Next game hes in the game again. Leaderboard is meaningless unless these things get fixed.
