Thread: Custom Map Played Statistics17 Dec 2017, 19:11 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Dec 2017, 18:13 PM__deleted__ I also think it is a terrible map for competitive automatch play. But to cheer you up a bit. It doesn't get removed from the game entirely as far as I know. I have very low reading comprehension scores. I read that as the maps with (Community Map) are being removed entirely from the game. And maps with (now custom games only) will still be included with the game. Or is it just classic Relic Canadienese language. I can never understand what they are saying because I am not that bright and every time I have gone to Canada I always wish I hadn't My thoughts are that many players DO NOT play/or DO NOT select to play competitive automatch maps. If we could find some stats maybe there would be a push for some NON-COMPETITIVE maps being added. Or at least look closer at maps that people may enjoy playing casually. 99% of maps created are on steam meant for fun casual play. There are some gems out there that could be added to make it easier for new players. The modder forum is not the real place for this discussion. Anyone know where the stats guys hang out?

Thread: Custom Map Played Statistics17 Dec 2017, 17:39 PM You guys are missing the point. This map gets a lot of play. Possibly more than any other 2v2 map. The players are not high level players from what I have seen. With the FREE coh2 out more NEW players will be out. They need fun maps to play to get encouraged to play more and become community members. Perhaps the longer match time is what these players want. When you are learning the game it gives you time to read descriptions and try out abilities multiple times. Where a map like RHZEV WINTER may confuse new players. There is deep snow all over. Weird looking sight blockers. How many people have seen a tank sink into the ice even though most of the tank is on land? Things that may discourage people from playing. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Custom Map Played Statistics17 Dec 2017, 02:32 AM The DBP is coming out next week. The 2v2 map Pripyat Sector is going to be removed from the game. I know some "TOP" players may have issue with the map only having 2 VPs and wishing it to be removed. However, this map seems to get played a lot in custom games. That means removing it entirely from the game could hurt the current NEW player base. I see 3-4 matches everytime I look at custom games. Does anyone have access to the stats of which maps get played most in custom games? New players love this map and probably will not know to look for it in steam etc. They pick maps from inside the game. Now they will be stuck playing maps like RHZEV WINTER and wish they were dead instead like I do when I play it In: Mapping Discussion

Thread: Reccomend cpu for the game?12 Dec 2017, 22:58 PM If you are playing 3v3 or 4v4 you may want a good CPU. Calculating sight, pathing, etc for hundreds of units will be CPU dependent. If your GPU doesnt handle the physics it may be offloaded to your CPU as well. The major grind for COH2 is the density of alpha blended textures like smoke. Relic really upped the quality of these graphics meaning that more textures are being applied. The ground in a map can have several layers of textures that are blended. This means for the ground, each pixel is drawn 4 to 30 times per frame. Add some smoke on top of that and the pixels are being drawn an additional 10 - 50 times. Not just drawn, but blended with the current frame buffer. This WILL cause your FPS to drop to the ground. It is like asking your GPU to draw the game at 60 x (30+50) FPS. Put anti-aliasing in the mix and its just too much for most GPUs. My guess is that a better GPU will always help more than a CPU. Then turn off AA and then lower physics quality until it doesnt choke In: Hardware and Tech
Thread: New Relic Studio reveal8 Dec 2017, 05:54 AM Jump back to quoted post8 Dec 2017, 04:32 AMd0ggY Funny that relic gets a new Headquarters, so they can program AoE4 with fixed Hotkeys you are only able to change through 3rd Party! :> CODE: if ScanCode = 65 then Call GAME_Event_Attack SHOULD BE: if ScanCode = UserProgKey1 then Call GAME_Event_Attack Literally a 2 second change....this is what I am talking about above. Somehow these guys can write code to get servers and PCs to all talk out of sequence and have events firing that show what everyone is seeing in a 3D world. But they cant write the intro to programming code above. Something is very amiss at Relic. And has been since the beginning of COH. (PrayingToRNGesus) In: Lobby
Thread: New Relic Studio reveal8 Dec 2017, 03:07 AM ROSBONES STOCK REPORT Every successful company has a leader (Hewlett,Packard,Jobs,Gates,etc) in power who loves or understands the product they are making. Relic has a person in power somewhere that does not understand the game, but thinks they do. Every version of COH has glaring issues that noob programmers and gamers could/would fix in minutes. This indicates that the person in charge made a bad decision and no one under them will tell them "but, this sucks. Really bad." Since some of the issues are programming related I would assume that person dabbles in coding or oversees coding on occasion (mainly interface). I would assume they have been with the company for a long time as well and are not likely leaving. With Sega and Microsoft overseeing Relics next efforts, it will be very interesting to see if any of these artifacts make it to production. Or will we see this person leave before the next game comes out. In: Lobby

Thread: How to: Set up a CoH2 multiplayer map7 Dec 2017, 23:18 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Dec 2017, 20:58 PMRussianHat is there a way to resize an existing map? I have a map that I made a while ago and I want to enlarge it but I dont know how to go about it. One of the pros can answer this fully. But I think you want to open the original map and create a STAMP of it. Then create a new map of the correct size and paste the STAMP onto it. I deleted the game so I cant give you the exact keystrokes. When you make the stamp there are bunch of checkboxes so you can select what you want to make a copy of. You may get an idea from MonolithicBacons video HERE In: Mapping Discussion
