Thread: New to 4 VS 4 ? Read this first !11 Oct 2014, 02:33 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Oct 2014, 00:20 AMASneakyFox i sometims kind of wish 4v4 had an alternate mode, like one team is defense the other is offense. and the rules of the game mode could work into the (in)balance of large team games. 1v1 is where its at for a serious game, but 4v4s are fun because theyre more casual and slow paced. but have their merits That would be cool. It could be an entirely different gae type as well like "Search and Destroy" or "Base Defense" In: Lobby

Most of the pros play 1v1, although I do believe that if the game was perfectly balanced there, 4v4s would be in a much better shape In: Lobby
Thread: My Guide on Axis Fanboys10 Oct 2014, 17:29 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Oct 2014, 16:57 PM_underscore Well I don't like it when people are snarky about ranks. But experienced AT'ers in a myriad of different combinations only ever playing placement games? It's not exactly going to repel victories..... You would be surprised Even ATs have trouble once multiple KTs, Jagdtigers, Schreck Blobs, and Obers roll out Jump back to quoted post10 Oct 2014, 16:45 PMQueenRatchet123 not saying u are a bad player. yet u need to play all factions.. dont take this the wrong way. u need to have many games with all factions. ur eyes will be opened it's okay. people tell you to play more factions. Now you are telling me to play more factions. I guess everyone needs someone to shit on. In: Lobby
Thread: New to 4 VS 4 ? Read this first !10 Oct 2014, 17:20 PM Hi guys. I have played with SwissCheese. He is a very nice guy. Please don't think he is trying to troll everyone. He is simply stating his observations (which are quite spot on) In: Lobby

I don't want to sound like an ass. yet, YOU NEED TO PLAY MORE. GET BETTER I have the feeling that u are a forum lurker Check my AT Ratchet. I have even played with you. I have about 200 games played. I don't own WFA by the way. My stats are actually quite good. I think I am about 100-78 so more than .500 win rate as a 4v4 Allied player (with a handful of games as Ostheer). I am very surprised you made those comments seeing as how we even played together in three games. In: Lobby

Thread: My Guide on Axis Fanboys10 Oct 2014, 15:13 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Oct 2014, 08:53 AMJohnnyB Question: Do you think "german fanboys" and "allied fanboys" are equal terms? Are there differences between them? I think they are equal and both exist. I think the recent months have featured several very vocal and infamous Axis fanboys. Some of my examples have come straight from their mouths because they were outlandish and flawed (imo) in the context of the game and history. But it is easy for me to use their comments, since they have been very vocal and active on the forums. However, I am sure in time I can pick up some things from Allied fanboys. I think generally Allied fanboys need to understand that some things are done for the sake of gameplay. If the game is too realistic, then Germans would have a difficult time such as being outnumbered, thousands of tanks rolling over you, never-ending air strikes etc. Some things are done. In the context of a video game, things have to be compromised in order for it to be fun for both sides. If we had Tiger tanks magically breakdown while traveling to the frontlines, it would cause much frustration amongst German players. My issue with Axis fanboys lies mainly in their use of historical myths or stereotypes to justify the status quo (which i think is Axis-favored) in COH2. There is some kind of strange belief that Germans were superior in every way possible while ignoring some of their blunders/bad points. This is why I feel that the word "asymmetric balance" is thrown around so much when talking about German units. They have the best AI, AT, and Armor. People will use very selective and one-sided statements to justify why some German units have such advantages. In short, Allied fanboys need ot understand that for COH2, gameplay comes first, The game needs to be fun for both sides. For Axis fanboys, I think they need to realize that they can't have the statistically best units (and using selective statements to support why)and that this causes issues with the other side. The above paragraph sounds almost contradictory (Gameplay>realism vs Realism>gameplay) but I strongly believe a healthy balance of both can be done that satisfies both Allied and Axis players. I am getting a little offtopic now but I believe these changes can solve a lot of the polarity and antagonism here 1. Each faction should have reliable and effective counters for all units (ties into next point) 2. These solutions must be nondoctrinal. Every core unit of a faction must serve a purpose and be effective in countering other units 3. All commanders are unique and strategically viable. 4. Remove the excessive reliance on commanders (especially Soviet) In: Lobby
Thread: My problem with OKW and USF10 Oct 2014, 13:54 PM Why wouldn't you blob OKW? They got great infantry such as Obers and Falls for AI and sturdy Schreck Volks. Basically blobbing them allows you to have a death ball that kills everything. Since they are durable, you can blob them without fear of too much incoming dmaage In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: 4v4 Top 10 Win Ratios and Streaks10 Oct 2014, 03:31 AM Jump back to quoted post8 Oct 2014, 23:29 PMHon3ynuts At the moment, you have to play the allies in an incredibly specific way to be on equal footing with the Axis, additionally if you have too many USF teammates you will stand no chance as they are very weak during different phases of the game, which can get them forced off the resources quite easily. I would assume top arranged teams are aware of this. Additionally, it was almost impossible to lose last patch with axis, you literally had to be facing a good team and you needed a player to disconnect or go AFK, many wins are from that patch Finally Alot of those ATs are probably from before WFA when the game was relatively balanced even in 4v4 only the last couple patches have been producing 80-90% axis win rates Edit: as far as im aware i almost never see any top allied players actually playing the game anymore, i havn't played soviets in like 2 patches but i see alot of those top okw players online, this probably makes it easier to streak as axis Really good points In: COH2 Balance
