People complaining not because game is bad but because they want it to be better. Imagine coh without bugs. Without performance issues. With whole roster of units available and commanders being balanced. It would be dream RTS.

Of course, but that's probably just an illusion. Do you really think it would be possible to get to a version where nobody felt the game to be imbalanced?

I see people claiming every faction too weak or too strong in different aspects. It's pretty telling.

OKW: no fuel and unit nerfs! Boooo
Wher: too expensive and four gren squads! Booo
Soviet: Is-2 only useful tank and sniper nerf! Boooo
USF: No Heavy tank at all and bollocks bazookas! Boooo

And on and on. It's that I'm not sure it's such a big problem. When I hear about op units and strats I try them sometimes and usually end up feeling "sure it's possible to make it work as long as..." having certain circumstances or using solid Micro or something. Then again, shouldn't it work if I used it in the right circumstances in a skillful way? Having in mind that even the outcome of small, early engagements can strongly affect the rest of the game.

Again, call-in disease applies almost exclusively to soviets. I never feel handicapped when playing other army. And god I hope new army won't suffer same problems.

Maybe things are different in 1v1. Often I play 4v4 because I usually play with a friend and we like that mode. Burt (above) thinks call in meta complaint is made up. I find it challenging to win with any faction, and that overall feels balanced to me. If I don't get a unit to work, I sure have a memory of somebody else using it successfully in my team or against me, so.

Thats still call-in meta

Call-in meta will be fixed

You know, maybe it's just the game. Maybe all the people that goes meta this meta that should simply play another game. The stock tanks ARE being built. So, the argument then becomes "oh but they are not as strong as... but people use this tactic... nobody uses (although they do)... I think the game should be..."

Maybe try seeing the cool thing about special abilites unlocked as the game progresses and have more options of play. Which is a cool thing. No?

Its not used very often

I see it all the time.

I learnt yesterday that axis mortar squad smoke ability takes FOREVER to hit. I executed the command, waited a few moments with infantry, then started moving towards the VP I wanted to cap, arrived a short while later, got pinned, crawled around, got red suppressed, started losing the squad, had to retreat, ran a bit towards home...

Then the smoke hit.

Last time I've checked it will always be 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 or 4v4. Equal numbers on both sides.

Thanks for clearing that out.
