"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?..The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and... the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough...We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

Thread: CoH3 Feedback2 Aug 2021, 13:57 PM I like the new dynamic campaign BUT they really had ought to open the game up for modding so that people can make their own dynamic campaigns in Germany or Russia just because only Italy or North Africa over and over is probably going to get stale.

Thread: CoH3 Reveal - Possible stuff2 Aug 2021, 12:21 PM Jump back to quoted post13 Jul 2021, 04:28 AMfrostbite lame..really wanted a modern coh3 ww3 or something cool ww2 gets boring after a while You should try Call to Arms. It's set in the modern day "War on Terror" era with the US, Germany and basically the United Arab Emirates versus Russia, basically ISIS, and a balkan insurgent faction. It's an entry into the Men of War series, so it's built on the Gem engine (with all the baggage that entails) and its playercount is a little low, but it's a fun game with modern equipment and an ok coop mode if you can get some friends to play with.

Thread: Pathfinders?2 Aug 2021, 01:51 AM Jump back to quoted post1 Aug 2021, 20:54 PMThamor ..and don't talk about ammo that is a problem for every faction in the game. Lmao. Uh yeah technically speaking, but when your core infantry needs 120 munitions to keep up with enemy infantry later on in the game, and you generally have 3 core infantry squads and an officer squad (and possibly rear echelon bazooka squads) as well as an AT gun that doesn't penetrate reliably against bigger tanks at medium to long range without shelling out 30 muni, the munitions cost can get a little prohibitive to outfit your squishy recon squad with BARs and actually keep up with your enemy. Unless of course you're more skilled then them. But in that case it didn't really matter what you used, you would have beat them anyways. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Mod support1 Aug 2021, 23:27 PM I think that they really should open up the game for modders. They gain everything and lose nothing from it. Sure, there's the possibility of modders being able to find out that maybe the devs took a shortcut in creating a unit by copy pasting it, but really who cares? Locking down the modding scene is basically locking yourself out of having your own playerbase increase the amount of players playing your game for free. For example, my introduction to the Total War series was through Total War: Medieval 2. Why is that? Because I was a fan of Lord of the Rings, and someone had made a total conversion mod for that game that turned it into a lord of the rings rts. And do you know what happened? I found out I liked the series, and I bought multiple other titles in it. I really hope relic keeps this perspective in mind. In: COH3 Central
Thread: Picking vet1 ability1 Aug 2021, 19:21 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2021, 12:50 PMKasarov I really appreciate this system too as it makes your units less predictable and gives you way more options. However, these can be hard to balance. For example, I love the Bazooka team abilities (especially the destroy cover; who would have thought of that? IT'S GENIUS!) and absolutely love the choice between Sprint WP Rocket as both are meaningful; However, the Whizbang's Jettison Launcher ability is... far more niche to say the least. I'm still hopeful as its just a pre-alpha preview after all. I think it has great potential, just needs a lot of thought put into it and some more refining in order to achieve it. On the whizzbang: I feel like the jettison launcher ability should be a toggle, but with a somewhat long activation/ cooldown time. Something like you can have the crew take down the launcher but it takes a minute or something like that. And the same to place it back on. That way it isn't just paying extra for a sherman tank that gets no vet 1 ability but instead paying extra for a vehicle that can be infantry support OR rocket arty depending on what it needs to be.

Thread: Relic: Gameplay Overview31 Jul 2021, 23:37 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jul 2021, 16:55 PMPip I imagine that the commander system will be more a mix of Coh1 and CoH2, in that you will still be choosing commanders, but within those commanders are the trees shown earlier in the thread. The fact they were specific about stating that "everyone will have access to the same tools" leaves me hopeful that Commanders and similar will /not/ be subject to Microtransactions. That wouldn't make much sense. Games being sold on their own don't make nearly as much as games that include in game purchases of some sort. Games as a service is the current trend. What I get from that statement is that every faction will have access to the tools that it needs from the base roster and not have to rely on commanders to fill holes in unit composition In: COH3 Central
Thread: Where are the Panzer IIIs?31 Jul 2021, 17:11 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Jul 2021, 08:36 AMMr. Someguy Late-War is as stale as the bag of chips I forgot about on top of the fridge for a month and then accidentally left open last night. Some Panzer III's and M3 Lee's would be so refreshing. Playing CTA: Gates of Hell made me realize how interesting the early war armor situation was. However, if they go early war then the T34 becomes a badass on the field and the german armor will struggle somewhat, and what wehraboo wants that? Haha. In: COH3 Central

Thread: why are penals better than cons objectively25 Jun 2021, 14:26 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2021, 12:29 PMVipper You probably need to open a dictionary and look up the phrase "original design". I any case I am not really interested in your line of arguing. Yes. You're right. "Original design" is not "original implementation." Design being the idea, and implementation being how the gameplay actually was. So you saying that the original design was so and so is clearly supported by the design drawings. In: COH2 Gameplay
