I agree with everything OnkleSam stated. I discussed one extra issue I have on the resource system last night on my stream. I am quite uncertain if it might create a degree of 'luck' in crucial early game teching decisions.
The reason I say this is that CoH is not really a scouting intensive game for tech structures in comparison to games like AoE and SC2. With sectors being OP'd with either fuel or ammo, you can never be sure if your opponent is going for heavier fuel or ammo based strats. The way CoH works means you simply will most likely not see an OP close to the base if an opponent hold their portion of the map.
In vCoH you can know roughly how much fuel your opponent will have depending on how long they have held the fuel or you have denied them fuel. This might mean you can maybe squeeze in WSC before going to t3/t4 for AT or catching your opponent really off guard with a puma.
This could make many players always take the 'safe option' just incase something might happen, rather than knowing exactly what will happen. In early game this is critical and you shouldn't have to waste fuel on a 'maybe' decision. Luck and linear play is what comes into my head with this resource system.
Does anyone have an issue with OBS that when you play CoH, the viewers can not see your mouse cursor?
I have the option for capture mouse cursor ON ticked, however it doesn't seem to do the job. Tried it unticked to see if it was maybe a misinterpretation but still no good results. Any ideas?
Yeah same goes for me actually, steam has never recognized my CD key for my OF retail version ever. I have just never got angry over it due to the fact the ToV version works just fine for me.
Ahh shit we have got to redownload the whole game with all the patches aswell again? Last time that occured I had to space it over 2 months just because my download limit
Edit: Oh wait server change on May 7th. Monthly internet download refreshes on the 10th. This might just work
What I hope this means is that for CoH2, they will use steamworks and when you cheat in CoH2, you get banned from Steam... MUCH worse than just getting a silly old RO account banned.
As in they ban your whole steam account or just ban it for the single game you cheated on? Anyway whats it matter if your a fair and nice person, nothing is going to ever happen to you
Voobly community is extremely strong. Voobly is the only place you can also play the fanpatch 1.2 version of AoE3. It is much more balanced and great to play!
