Thread: 1v1 automatch stats7 Jul 2020, 20:31 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Jul 2020, 17:37 PMTittendachs This kind of confirms my perceived imbalance towards allies on Angoville. I hope this map gets a major overhaul or finally kicked out of 1v1 automatch soon... You have to take these particular stats with a grain of salt. Last stats showed Ladoga Karelia as perfectly balanced. This time it appears to NOT be balanced. As for Angoville, as has always been OST, should do well since they can hold the right side all game long if needed. And OKW just has no tools to do anything in this game, so you cant even count them ever if there is a map where someone might put an MG somewhere It was also foretold and backed up by earlier stats that BRITs would have a hard time dealing with buildings on Angoville. But the stats have them as the strongest faction now. All of that said, I am not a strategist. Just trying to provide ALL of the information so we can figure this stuff out. A better metric would be to combine this chart with the chart of plays by rank. If there is a major imbalance, the players will all play it because they have a 50/50 shot of getting the good side 5Head In: Mapping Discussion

You should treat them like weapon teams and after selecting target always should press stop command. - I tested this bug THREE times before posting. - Then I closed Coh2. - Posted how to do it. - I just tested them again and now they wont do it at all. So three times in a row they bugged out. Now I cant make them bug out. This is precisely what I am talking about. I knew the REs bugged because I see it in game consistently. So it was an example of what my OTHER units do in game also. Even AT guns and Tanks do the same thing. Act like they cant see the enemy. In: Lobby

It's all due to dodgy LoS blockers so make sure you have clear line of sight before issuing direct attack orders. 1) Load up a map with CHEATMODS. 2) Make a set of enemy pios. 3) Give your REs the rifle grenade upgrade. 4) Move REs just to the FOW where they CAN see the enemy. 5) Select the REs and then focus fire the pios. Your REs will walk over to the Pios. Stand there for a second. Then walk around the pios. Then maybe start engaging if your still alive. This is the behavior I see in game. I see this in many games with many units. Sometimes tanks even do it. Like they just cant see the enemy. Sometimes my units will start attacking for 1-2 seconds then move up a few meters and start attacking again. Even though they are only 10 meters away to begin with. It is like they kill the closest model then CANT SEE the enemy anymore. I used to say its the server, but then why is my game drawing the enemy units correctly? In: Lobby
Thread: Burnout and Dealing with RNG Frustration 5 Jul 2020, 07:22 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Jul 2020, 04:47 AMKoRneY Doesn't seem like you enjoy it much. Paradoxically you rail against rng but play the mode that suffers from it the most, by far. Stormjäger is correct though, you should try 3v3. They're just a touch less chaotic and imo the maps for the most part are pretty decent. I do enjoy the game when it lets me play. And I get an enjoyment very few others do in that I get to play on maps that I had a hand in making. Every game I have ever played in 3v3 was cancerous. Most of the maps are not made for 3v3. If they are too small or narrow its the same MG+mortar fest as 4v4. And if the map is too big, it becomes make giant blob and 2v1 someone. I think the coded RNG factors in the game are good and make it fun. Especially to watch. But some games you dont get to actually play. The server decides you are going to lose and there is nothing you can do about it. And my earlier posts are saying that this it not the coded RNG factors. There is something else going on with server timings or traffic. In: Lobby
Thread: Burnout and Dealing with RNG Frustration 5 Jul 2020, 07:07 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Jul 2020, 04:46 AMHoverBacon Without trying to sound like a pretentious arse: There is no bad luck in CoH, only bad play. This is completely wrong. That is the OP and my point. Just an hour ago I ran some pios up on a sniper. They did ZERO damage. I chased it around shooting it for about 10 seconds closing the distance on it the whole time ...ZERO FUCKING damage. NONE! I test in cheatmods, pios cause 10-15% health on first volley. By second volley they are closer and do even more damage. But in the live game...let me repeat this for you guys... ZERO FUCKING DAMAGE! That is not some bad roll of RNG. And it has nothing to do with skill. And this shit happens to me EVERY FUCKING GAME. So the main point is what do you do to mentally accept the fact that the game is broken as all hell and continue trying to enjoy it. Goosefraba. Jump back to quoted post5 Jul 2020, 04:46 AMHoverBacon If an enemy mortar is hitting you with laser-guided-nazi-uber-shellen, especially if he doesn't have line of sight, you're unit is probably stood in a place that people predictably stand in. You did not read my post clearly enough. Enemy mortars sniping me thru FOW on the move. My mortar cant clear a static not moving MG after 50 volleys that is in plain sight. In: Lobby

Thread: Burnout and Dealing with RNG Frustration 4 Jul 2020, 21:19 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Jul 2020, 20:35 PMBaba i think that was never in question but people feel more comfortable hiding behind 3 other players. takes some pressure off their own shoulders HOW TO MITIGATE RNG FROM THE GAME Sorry guys, but we are getting off topic. The main post was about coping with RNG. I was just laying out some RNG scenarios to help nail down what it is that is frustrating and can it be fixed. For my troubles I feel server lag causes many issues, so in the past I have tried different network things like Wifi, hard wired etc. I used to get better results by making my phone a WiFi hotspot to see if I can get a better server time from my phone carrier versus my internet provider. But the last time I tried that, it was just as bad as my provider. For me personally I go into each game knowing I will get screwed and will lose. So I just try to enjoy the little moments. And of course the few times you play with a random team and it all goes right and everyone is having fun is a big payoff for me. I also tend go full VonIvan and just keep saying "I like Pizza" in my head as I play. In: Lobby
Thread: CoH2 Campaign Speedrun auto-split support for LiveSplit4 Jul 2020, 21:00 PM Janne, I noticed three entries in the LOG file for missions: Code 17:55:40.88 GAME -- Scenario: DATA:scenarios\sp\coh2_campaign\m08-tiger_hunting\tiger_hunting 17:56:09.95 PerformanceRecorder::StartRecording for game size 4 18:07:54.14 PerformanceRecorder::EndRecording - game size=4, max average=0.045077, worst frame=0.010000 Which entry are you using to start the timer? It seems like the STARTRECORDING entry would be the correct one, but the GAME -- SCENARIO entry gave closer times to the test plays I had looked at. PS Amazing work as always! In: Campaign & Co-op
Thread: Burnout and Dealing with RNG Frustration 4 Jul 2020, 19:40 PM I hope people dont see my posts as complaining. My point is not all players have the same experience. And to maybe help figure out what the cause of that is by talking about it. So L2P is funny and all, it does not help the other players out there with similar experiences. Because I want to have a good fun community playing the game I love. And if people are deleting the game for these reaons, that is not good. In: Lobby
