They are testing the waters. I don't expect a HUGE prize pool for a monthly event.

Give them time and coh2 esports will come boys.

There are already huge issues with pathfinding in some vehicles (Universal carrier), adding more would be annoying lol.

Verify integrity of game cache?

Just increase projectile speed and its fine

While CoH2 is in its mid life of its "5 year plan", its community has has been aging since the launch of the game in 2013. The consistence balance patches tied with lack of new players has lead to a game that's very hard for new players to pick up. The saltiness of the community / lack of maturity of this community needs to be in game. Adding a in game report feature would be a step in the right direction to curve this trend of poor players. Base attacking is often common in larger team games as well as players dropping in large team games within the first 1-5 mins due to "noob teammates" or players who's levels aren't very high.

In order to fix this, in game report feature needs to be added to both in game and after game match screens. Reporting needs to be quicker and easier as most players wont send replays to relic as its very time consuming and hard to find the email. Inside this report feature we should be able to mark what actions the player took eg: AFK, Base attacking, poor team communication (raging at your teammates). Along with this maybe adding boons to being nice players (see CSGO/DOTA) such as being commended for being a good/helpful player may be an incentive for players to play nicer with teammates.

Players leaving before the 5min mark should be give an 5~10 min cool down timer for leaving matches early (see rocket league matchmaking). This should never be acceptable, and needs adjustments. To not even give your teammates a try is devastating in large games as players and can lead to games taking longer to load than the actual game.

CoH2 players deserve more respect for one another regardless of Axis bias or Allied fanboyism, report features/time outs will be a small step in the right direction to making a more friendly competitive game
