Thread: Retardly low FPS26 Nov 2014, 12:22 PM My home rig is old with i2500k + 570gtx and I get above 40 fps with just shadows and snows to low... I can probably get more if I disable AA and textures but wheres the fun in that? I'm sure there is a fix for it. In: Hardware and Tech
Thread: New infantry grouping26 Nov 2014, 12:18 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2014, 18:02 PMMr. Someguy Looking at vehicle pathing and retreat but in game ATM I honestly have little faith in Relic's capabilities to make such engine-related amendments. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: New infantry grouping26 Nov 2014, 12:16 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2014, 18:20 PMKatitof Not only it doesn't make sense, its not even like that in WC3. AoE there had no target limit, unless you talk chain lightning type of abilities or ressurection abilities. Damage had no caps of any sort, you stood in AoE, you got hit by it. AOE damage, for instance - Tauren Chieftain's lvl 3 shockwave is capped at 2400 max. So basically there's a cap to how much damage it can do in one shot. AOE skills did X amount of damage to Y area regardless of how many units were in it,and WC3 approach was to limit the damage to approximately 12 units per cast. With that cleared, of course it should be implemented differently for COH2 because : a) WC3 is unit based and COH2 is squad-based b) we don't want to cripple the anti-blobbing aspect of artillery,rockets, and shells in general. Why? The objective is to reduce single squad insta-wiping, because : a) squad wipes are not something in control of the players, thus is an highly RNG-limited situation; b) and yet concept of vet levels in the game means squad wipes affect the game results way too much.

Thread: Blobbing25 Nov 2014, 16:03 PM I'd like to see if anyone made it in the top 20s in any faction through blobbing, if blobbing was so damn overpowered. I think some people have this misconception that selective concentration is a moral hazard called blobbing and for some reason their infantry squads should be dueling 1v1 in random fields.... How do you distinguish said "blob" from a tactically positioned units that are maintaining same distance with the said "blob"? Idiotic. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: Rifle Company commander25 Nov 2014, 12:40 PM Solid choice in all games modes, although in larger game modes it is preferred that one US player goes Airborne for p47 airstrikes as they can take out heavy but slow targets with ease (which the US tends to have problems dealing with). If you are the only US player on your team I would suggest you go airborne just for that, although maps like La Gleize and Lienne forest where close-quarters urban combat is expected the flamethrower rifles can really shine you can go rifle command and still be successful. If you manage to keep the fuel pressure up, you may be able to build 5+ EZ8s using the crew/decrew popcap exploit and use the critical mass to annhiliate the enemy and even chase remaining infantry into base for extreme GG.

Thread: OKW Elite Armor25 Nov 2014, 11:51 AM Terrible choice in any game mode except perhaps large annihilation games. 9cp P4s are not that strong compared to their time window and will not prove to be a battlefield shock. Better to have a panther+@ with that fuel. Other abilities are pretty disappointing too. In: OKW Strategies
Thread: Leavers are ruining the game25 Nov 2014, 11:47 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Nov 2014, 07:03 AMCrysack It isn't just people not loading in or dropping early on, but, more annoyingly, people who lose one engagement, proceed to abuse their team-mates and then abandon the game (or worse, they start mortaring their ally's base). It isn't a rare occurrence either. Every second or third team game has some guy who throws a hissyfit even though the game is completely winnable. A LPQ punishment system would improve the team game experience significantly. I had that happen to me too. I never play random team games again after that. In: Lobby

Thread: Resource manipulation as the primary catalyst of imbalance24 Nov 2014, 17:08 PM Reading this thread I am more convinced that Map design is more of an issue in 3v3 and 4v4s. In: COH2 Balance
