Thread: the Fall Balance Preview has been put on hold indefinitely.27 Aug 2017, 22:51 PM Honestly, I'm not surprised. It has been four years since the release of the game and after recalling the memories of the funniest shit I did in 4v4s, 2v2s, and 1v1s (Could never get around to 3v3s). I should have seen this coming. Considering that Relic is also going to be working of Age of Empires IV, they got to reallocate resources to focus on a famous title that has the potential to do well. However, their track history with game balance and their shitshow with Dawn of War III makes me wonder if it's truly worth putting CoH2 on hold. Then again, I remember the time when I discovered that the Ardennes Assault expansion was literally broken for the time being and force me to use a mod just to play the game. It was fun, but some missions couldn't be completed because it was totally broken. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Relic working on Age of Empires 426 Aug 2017, 18:41 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Aug 2017, 16:05 PMLordRommel To be honest i cant wait to know what time they will use for the AoE 4 scenario. All in all i cant see a World war based scenario because such a scenario wouldnt fit into the AoE gameplay (Collect resources for your army?). But AoE is about building an Empire. So i wouldnt drop the "world war theme" at all here. That is the reason why i would be happy about a 1815~1918 time frame (From the Congress of Vienna to the Great War). Why do i prefer such an time frame. Well. It is the "last" time for empires to rise and fall. The European (and the USA) nations were rushing over the world to find new resources and new land to conquer and colonize. It is a time with massive technological improvements (from the Montgolfiere to the aircraft). Out of my view it would be last era to work with static game elements (forts, towers, walls, defence stuff). You could implement a lot of stuff and weapons here. Relic could add content and mechanics they are familiar with (firearms, cover system, perhaps doctrines or national focus?) to add new elements to the classic AoE gamedesign. Like i said: I cant wait to get more information. Although people really did not like Age of Empires III compared to Age of Empires II, it did bring some interesting features for players. One of them was advancing to the next age, but there were two options on how to advance to the next age. Relic could build upon this with some interesting mechanics involved that could change the gameplay without getting rid of the traditional gameplay most AoE players enjoyed. The other feature that AoEIII had was the home city feature, which was basically AoE's own version for off-map units/resources. Considering that Relic also does this in their titles, they could take to a new level that could benefit players without being a distraction as well. I could go into theories on how Age of Empires could direct itself, but I think it's safe to say that Relic has to put plenty of effort into execution in order to attract the slowly dwindling RTS gamers out there.

Thread: Relic working on Age of Empires 421 Aug 2017, 22:36 PM Hey, a game my dad and I can enjoy together since we played it back in the day. Yet, I'm a bit worried after looking at Dawn of War III. In: Other Games
Thread: Iron Harvest18 Aug 2017, 06:15 AM Jump back to quoted post16 Aug 2017, 19:38 PMDonnieChan infantry animations look awful, like expected. Well it seems like the developers are also trying to garner the attention of the Men of War community. If you look in the comments, we're having some kind of disagreement with its direction. Then again, its YouTube comments. Hopefully, the infantry animations get improved later on, but I'm crossing my fingers on that. Another thing I hope for is good infantry AI. Men of War's version was horrific to me. In: Other Games
Thread: Why does capturing territory do absolutely nothing?1 Aug 2017, 05:41 AM Jump back to quoted post31 Jul 2017, 19:12 PMStorm Elite In Dawn of War II, if you capture the entire map, you deny your opponent resources, and they can't even build INFANTRY, let alone armor. In CoH2, EVERY SINGLE MATCH is just the opponent sitting back, losing the ENTIRE map, then building two or three tanks and winning without any actual tactics and without being punished for failing miserably at holding anything early on. Why is this? Why is a player who loses both fuel points, both munitions points, and the vast majority of control points allowed to build any kind of threatening units at all, let alone several of them? Why does capturing said resource and control points not actually accomplish anything in terms of harming the opposing player? What is even the point of capturing territory, when it has absolutely no effect on anything? The announcer shouts "The enemy has cut off our supply line!" in an exaggerated tone, as if there's real danger in being cut off, but in reality, there isn't... And was it always this way? Or did CoH2 start out like DoWII? Like others said, it's a comeback mechanic for the losing players to give them a chance. That and the manpower income is very high when said losing side barely has anything. As for the sudden appearance of tanks, I have a few theories since you haven't presented a replay: 1. Player was hiding his tanks. (Very unlikely) 2. Had an ally that provided fuel for said player.* 3. Players was saving his fuel for something big.** Some commanders have the ability to call in fuel drops for anyone to use, but since you seem to have mentioned that the losing player(s) was supposedly pushed back such abilities would have a role in allowing players to obtain fuel. *This is the most reasonable one since my theory for your match was that your opponent was saving up for a heavy tank. However, because you were winning he needed an immediate response to counter your forces. Rather than spend precious time getting a heavy tank, he chose to make multiple mediums in quick response. While I could make more theories, it's better if you post a replay. Saves us plenty of time and guys can have a look at what happened. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Company of Heroes III - Your expectations18 Jul 2017, 21:32 PM I hope we actually get a melee mechanic like Dawn of War has. Cause it's sometimes iffy to see Shock Troopers and Volksgrenadiers standing right next to each other firing at close blank range. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Why do you like Coh2? 14 Jul 2017, 01:40 AM As someone who played StarCraft, Age of Empires, and Rise of Nations at a very young age, it broke what I expected from the game. While the campaign was iffy, the mechanics and its different economic system made me like it more because I'm not focused on gathering resources just to get another unit into the meatgrinder. Now I'm going to go into the mechanics that makes me enjoy this game more. Cover, the only other games I've seen that have a cover system was the first Halo Wars. I just like how Company of Heroes has set it up for the player. Another mention I must make is that the character of the units is far more enjoyable than what Men of War: Assault Squad 2 has to offer. Hearing "For the fatherland", "For Uncle Sam", and "For the Motherland" is just boring. In comparison to Company of Heroes, a Panzergrenadier would end up screaming "Any lower and I'm going to be fucking the ground!" In: Scrap Yard
Thread: 2020 CoH 3 is becoming more real by every day17 May 2017, 01:45 AM If we are going to have a new Company of Heroes entry, here is what we need. Melee. I'm surprised Relic has not incorporated melee into Company of Heroes from Dawn of War 2. Honestly, I think Company of Heroes would benefit this more since melee might become a factor when flanking or keeping weapon teams busy. Though, I do have my doubts after the release of Dawn of War 3. I'm just hoping they might innovate new ideas to the series and one of them is some kind of DLC that is just like theatres of war, but each DLC is a campaign of its own. Just like Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor. Right now I'm crossing my fingers since the Ardennes Assault Expansion is too broken to play unless I use that mod to play the expansion. In: Lobby

Thread: DoW 3 open beta22 Apr 2017, 02:41 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Apr 2017, 02:13 AMHans88 DoW2 and CoH2 had very similar mechanics and gameplay. I am going to have to disagree with that statement. While DoW2 does have some cover mechanics, the gameplay is drastically different and there are a few things to point out that DoW2 is different from CoH2. Dawn of War 2 has other factors that Company of Heroes 2 lacks: - Melee combat, this also includes melee-focused infantry and anti-vehicle melee infantry. - Most units have the option to drastically change their role in the field for a price. - Hero units. The only unit I can think of that can apply to this role is the Ostheer's Tiger Ace and that's it. - Units have energy abilities instead of munitions. - Leaping units. Tyranids, I'm looking at you. - Teleporting units/buildings. - Faction specific powers. tl:dr Dawn of War 2 is a completely different animal than what Company of Heroes 2 is. In: Other Games
