Sexy kit might win an engagement, but it is the non-sexy stuff that will win you the war.

Here is the next thing you need in COH3, transport vehicles. Pick up troops/wounded, and transport them back to base faster than they could walk. Maybe have some fall back spot laid down by commander or units so they can partially retreat. They run fast for short burst towards retreat spot then must move slowly for a bit. Then a truck COULD pick them up and transport back/forth to base. Would add another layer of micro. Good /Bad...Who knows.

Could we perhaps exchange Lierneux or Ettelbruck for some older maps, that fell out of the Mappool? Eindhoven Country would be my favourite, but Schilberg would be good too. Almost every community map is better than Lierneux.

Or perhaps a couple more of the maps from the 2v2 map contest?

Zombi is correct here.

6 pounder and pak 40: 190/200/210

Rak and zis 180/190/200

And the Raketen will either miss or just plain not shoot 50% of time. Last game I played, Rak didnt take a shot then missed 3 for 3 on a stationary target. So 4 chances = 0 pens. Quality game, keep up the good work!

EDIT:
Raketen percentage stats:
60%/40%/When monkeys fly out of my ass

Excellent work! Thank you very much.

EDIT:
That is what I figured. The new 2v2 maps play much better than most of the current 2v2 maps in rotation. And players clearly agree.

NOTES OF INTEREST(I do not play 2v2 much):
Poltawa won the 2v2 contest but the mid buildings seem to scare players off. I always found engagements happened in the open more often than I would like as well, I attributed it to my noob play style. Some have said the map is too narrow and creates impassable MG walls.

Alliance of Defiance seemed as though balance may be an issue with the green cover centers. But every game I had on AOD was fun. Glad to see it is doing well.

FOW and Stadtschutt I only cued a couple times during automatch. Both seemed to play good on those few games. I had no complaints.

I would rate the new maps very similar to the played/veto chart SiphonX was kind enough to provide.

OTHER NOTES:
The other note is that Moscow Outskirts sucks, but there are two of them so it is artificially inflated and should also be at the bottom of the list.

Rails and Metal is also pretty bad, I have no idea how this 'train wreck' is the most played map. That map could be fixed in about an hour. But that will never happen. Anyone have a copy on steam I will fix it for my own pleasure

This all supports my thoughts that we need a 3v3 or 4v4 map contest soon. I predict we will see similar charts afterwards.

Oh really? I guess I've a good chance of beating DevM and Luvnest then. Since it's just a 50-50 left/right guess. GCS here I come!

Yes! Exactly! You do! I have beaten players much better than me in 1v1 because of these things. 1v1 is very unforgiving. I do not see how anyone could say otherwise. You lose 1 or 2 squads to these RANDOM factors and you lose. Its over. You just wasted 15 minutes of your life. You can lose your whole army twice before its over in a 4v4. Does 1v1 require more skill to play, yes a lot more skill. It is also not fun at all because it is over in under 4 minute most times.

Losing you whole army is also what makes it fun! You do not have to stick to any meta other than artillery counters. If you lose a bunch of stuff just merge with your partner and support them. Still a viable win. People win games by spamming engrs and covering points with fuel caches. Do that in a 1v1.

So yes, Relic should put some thought into 4v4(always) for COH3. And put thought into 1v1 since it is the ESL style everyone loves to watch. Tournaments are getting over 1000 viewers, yet there are probably half that playing 1v1....because it sucks to play (pokes the bear)
