My ideas for COH3:

- Anti blob debuff...if you blob up more than two mainline infantry units (or elite infantry) you get a 1.1 (maybe 1.2) RA modifier

- Everyone has the same doctrines/factions. Lots of cosmetic stuff that you can buy with real money

- Competitive mode that allows rule changes and different balance. this is important IMO because it´s impossible to balance 1v1 top level play while also keeping 4v4 balanced

- Much more community input into relic´s balancing/overall decision making from day one

- Stable game that doesn´t require restart after every second or third game.

- Appealing graphics and atmosphere must be a priority to attract a bigger playerbase. Maybe even something like cold-tech (reworked obviously), stuff like that could be put in casual game modes while being disabled in competitive mode. Weather effects or day/night changes could help create more atmosphere even without impacting gameplay.

- Unique factions, I dont like the recent trend of making every faction the same.

- Unit controlls need to be way better. I hate how clumsy they feel. Vehicle pathing is part of this. Just doesn´t feel precise enough. Infantry needs to be prevented from clumping up all the time. Also input delay is a big issue still.

- MG mechanics need to be changed. I hate how long suppresion lasts in this game. I also hate how infantry can frontally run at MGs get supressed but still throw a grenade at the MG. Especially with Maxims and Volksgrens this is really stupid at the moment. Also MGs need to be able to scale better into late-game without dominating early game as much.

- Rocket arty needs to be limited. Maybe 2 pieces of rocket arty for one player. 3 pieces for a team of 2. 4 for a team of 3 etc. Reason for this is that rocket arty completly destroys 3v3+. It´s just way too strong.

- No more insane units like Jagdtiger or Elefant please. It´s just not fun and creates balance issues to have units like that. They are useless in 1v1 and totally OP in 3v3+. Impossible to balance right.

- No more emplacements. Also no more self spotting, pop cap free Bunkers. Generally no doctrines that support abusive playstyles. (Advanced Emplacement Doctrine, I mean wtf)

- Other PVP games show that teamplay is generally prefered over playing alone. Which is why I think the potential of a competitive 1v1 scene is smaller than the potential of a competitive 2v2+ scene. Keeping this in mind there should be more focus on team-games. Better maps, better balance, mechanics that make abusive playstyles like blobbing or arty spam less effective. This would benefit the team game playerbase COH2 has and also give COH a chance to maybe shift the competitive focus on something other than 1v1 only.

- Statistics and good replay system with lots of features and analytical tools. Maybe locked behind a pay-wall to compensate for not offering P2W doctrines

I would add a little thing. COH3 should show during the loading screen of a game the ranks of players. It's a non sense i need a third part software for knowing who i'm facing

100% disagree. The amount of ppl dropping instantly would be so annoying.

10 min t-85 followed by 12 min katysha in 3v3.

Remove caches Kthx

Quality post.

Caches are so unfair. They give early tanks.


Btw: It´s T34-85 and Katyusha.

the art of necromancy is banned in this region

Necromancy is one thing. But saying Stuart is best light tank should truly be a criminal offense.

Matchups For example:
In 2v2 Brits can stomp OKW. Infantry is similar situationally and has MGs and UCs and then AEC. Raketens suck balls and need to be removed from the game.

Brits "can" stomp OKW. Just like any other faction "can" stomp every other faction.

If Brits go MG and UC vs OKW they have zero capping power. AEC delays real tanks a lot and should generally only be used to counter LV play. Raketenwerfer is actually my favourite AT-gun. Make two, use them together to ambush tanks. Cheesy but effective. OKW can just spam units early game and outcap Brits. Brits suck at holding down 2-3 key positions due to their lack of unit quantity. Then you can also just go heavy into Mech and get Luchs + Puma. Brits are weak vs any sort of good vehicle play while you can just snare AEC if it chases you. Or you go straight for double Obersoldaten + P4, this is especially effective if UKF player went AEC before you build a LV. You will get your P4 way earlier than he can get a Cromwell.

Brits are still strong vs OKW in team games but I feel like it´s a pretty balanced, fair match-up now. Unlike in the past, UKF used to just rape OKW on most maps.
