haha I completely forgot about the blizzards! With the little fireplaces and the "freezing barometer"... God, the hate I felt back then

I think it was actually the blizzards which made me leave the game for some time and turn to DoWII again..

At least they didn't have a unit that could upgrade (in enemy territory too)with a panzershrek and became immune to the cold. That would have been short sighted and not at all in keeping with CoH2s apparently flawless track record from release until the current day.

To counter balance my criticism of CoH2. Why the fuck have they not added maps or player names.

Good question but I dont think it would ever happen. WhiteFlash has a mappers Discord and everyone can be contacted on there. Relic could have several maps picked and ready in days. Every mapper dreams of having a map in game, so I am 100% sure everyone would say yes immediately.

Currently most maps are small modes however, not the 4v4 maps that are really needed.

Could be a great situation for everyone.
- Build support for the community. Everyone would be excited about it. Would show good will.
- Get fresh content quick.
- If the maps are not great, it does not show badly on Relic since they did not make them.

In the past Relic has taken 4-8 weeks to put maps into a package and get it out. Again... it is Relic we are talking about... so.....

Add a shit load of community maps. Add some vetoes. of course there will be some duds but even they would provide some much needed variety.

We do desperately need some 4v4 maps (and all the other modes ofc).

Am I the only one who really doesn't see it as all that deep?

It is very likely the studio is under pressures to monetise CoH3 by those above. Shareholders and quarterly profit reports will only see getting the most money out of a game in the fastest time.

But, given time I am sure that Coh3 will develop into an excellent RTS. The barebones are there but it will take time. Time that will likely not be afforded to it if there remains this bizarrely self-pleasuring attitude towards hating the game. Like the calls for review bombing on steam. It reminds me of a child holding their breath until they turn blue to punish their parents XD

Yes. It needs work. But I think amidst all these appeals to human decency and the legacy of Coh1/2 we forget that the future of one of the last big RTS franchises rests upon the decision of a bean pusher who doesn't care for any of this. If the numbers don't add up they will simply reallocate the funds to a new Sonichu game and scrap Coh.

It's shit but it is the nature of the beast. So all can really do is shrug and hope the game survives this initial period.

Smaller patches that add some fucking maps already.

Add Sittard Summer 4v4 at this point idgaf

Yeah a 3.5-4 second tick rate would be better from the experiences I've had so far.

Team games are often over before you can get into the meat of it. Sure there have been some amazing games that reach 45mins or so but they are a rarity I've found. Most end 30 minutes or under which doesn't quite scratch the itch like coh2 did
