Thread: The negative user reviews are infuriating12 Mar 2023, 17:19 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Mar 2023, 16:35 PMHannibal CoH3's SP is vastly improved, so a higher proportion will play SP only. Is it really though? All I have heard is people saying the campaigns were boring. Which is a real surprise to me since AOE4 looked pretty cool. I assumed they put a lot of effort into the campaigns. AI Skirmish is a joke right now. You cant tell how many kills anything has. The only way to see the end game stats is to play the whole match out. It is not new player friendly at all due to being so unfinished. And these are easy to fix things that should have been done since day 1. When I was writing my RTS I had kills printed as soon as I got infantry moving around and shooting at each other. How did they even test this game without kill counts? As many people know I am an old guy. I grew up in the "games came on floppy disk" days. Actually way before that. You young guys are part of this generation that has an enormous amount of FOMO (Fear of missing out). You were all raised on instant gratification and have not grown out of it yet (will you ever?). Relic knows they can push out an unfinished mess and you crackheads will gladly grab it up. And I get it. Most hardcore fans are just happy to be playing a new version of our favorite series. But Relic dropped the ball here. This is some next level screw up. People keep saying RTS genre is small. I wonder why? If I bought this game and was playing coh for the first time, I would play it a few times and delete it. That is why the low numbers of players on Steam is alarming to me. We are going to be right back to sitting in queue for 10 minutes to get a trash matchup that is not even worth playing. Thanks relic, you are the greatest... at sucking. In: COH3 Central

Thread: The negative user reviews are infuriating9 Mar 2023, 21:10 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 20:36 PMGiaA I just think you're waaaaay too negative. Constantly trashing Relic at every opportunity, instead of having a more pragmatic view. I trash Relic for the completely unavoidably obvious errors they make. I cant wrap my head around how they are this dumb. Right now there are a bunch of issues/bugs with game play like no blob control mechanic, units not doing the right thing, tell a vehicle to do anything besides focusing will cause it to retarget some random unit even after you told it to target a specific unit. These are all bugs in code that are very complicated to find/test. I will never complain about these types of issues. But the ridiculous stuff like team colors? How does anyone screw that up? It is literally one variable. A more recent example, I noticed the minimap was missing the manpower point icon a couple days back. The new patch fixed it. But the icon looks nothing like the one in the normal view minimap. How do you screw this up??? How.... I beg someone to explain to me how this is possible. I could go grab a 7 year old out of any classroom and have them fix this in 5 minutes. But Relic cant do it??? WTF ARE THEY DOING THERE??? WHAT??? I am all ears. Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 20:36 PMGiaA You could even rant on steam but then qualify the complaints with a remark about how great CoH is at its core. I agree. In my review I said it is unfinished but will be a great game in about a year. I pray for you guys its better in a couple of days so the player base does not erode any further. MORE TRASHING AS AN EXAMPLE Watching streamers is a big part of my Coh3 life. Relic assured us they will make Coh3 great for streamers, they are adding stuff. - Instead they hide the kill counts for units. - Screw up the final stats screen. - Screw up the colors. - Dont show the names of the players when their units are selected. - Point colors look like shit and they disappear in 720 and lower streams. - Screw up the specular lighting so everything is oatmeal mush especially on low bandwidth streams. - No CELO style overlay. No to mention the obvious stuff like replays/spectate/etc. But I can forgive those, they are very complicated and should be left off to polish game play more like they did. Why waste a bunch of time when the game is probably gonna DOW3 a month after release. So what exactly did they do for stream viewers? Oh that's right, nothing as usual. Have they never watched a single stream? Do they not see every Coh2 streamer using some form of CELO? "The Lord helps those who help themselves." Read and live this Relic. In: COH3 Central
Thread: The negative user reviews are infuriating9 Mar 2023, 17:10 PM Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 15:38 PMGiaA I have to rant about a few things that annoy the shit out of me with regards to negative user reviews on steam and reddit. Wonder what your thoughts are, don't take this too seriously. 1. In one of the youtube reviews the guy demonstrates how he can recreate the faction symbols in 5 minutes in photoshop. You answered your own question here. There are a bunch of things you could fix in minutes but are broken since over a year ago??????? Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 15:38 PMGiaA 2. If someone unfamiliar with CoH comes across the newest iteration and sees shit reviews they will likely never get into the series. They should avoid the game. It is trash and unfinished. See #1 above. I agree with your concept of playing for 100' or 1000's of hours. I personally will not even look at this game until they fix team colors and rendering quality. This is day 1 shit, not 5 years later and fully released shit. Every time I look at the horrible color choices they used on points, I want to literally puke. It looks like some 7 year old made the game. I want to drive to Relic and take a dump in their lobby and then explain how thats what they have done to their own game. Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 15:38 PMGiaA 3. Why do people completely neglect the strong aspects of CoH3? Doesn't the fact that we have 4 factions and amazing performance make up for some of the shortcomings? 4 factions is only good for the top tier of players and people who play 1v1. The rest of us would like a better experience and more maps. 4v4 only has 2 maps??? In Coh2 I could make a map in a day. Have it cleaned up by day 3 max. So why is there only 2 maps? Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 15:38 PMGiaA 4. A bigger playerbase would be so cool, but people actively prevent this from happening by shitting on the game. Again you have it backwards, Relic shit on us by putting out this trash. SteamCharts shows this games playerbase eroding like my desire to play Coh3 when I saw the first beta test. So the people buying the game think it sucks and are not playing it. Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 15:38 PMGiaA 5. Anyone german who gave a negative review because there is no german voice acting needs to seriously ask themselves I could care lass about voice acting. If anything I am annoyed by how loud the voices are compared to the guns etc. It destroys the immersion. In essence I agree with your whole post. Everything you said has validity. Coh3 will eventually be the best game in the series. It has great bones. I too went back and forth on how to review the game. Do I say it is great to get more players to come over? Or do I let Relic know they are sentient dildos from space sent here to ruin our lives? I chose the latter. Putting out poorly made unfinished trash is so on par with everything they ever do. Every decision they have ever made is the wrong one. Every time they say they will do something they dont. Having people from the community there gave me hope. But read every post I have made about Relic since 2017 and there is a common denominator. I consistently say "Some one high up at Relic is a moron. And they continue to hold this game back. And people either fear or really like this person because no one has had the balls to say what they are doing is wrong." I hoped it was Duffy, and had hope when he left. But it was not him. The cancer is still there. Every game they have ever made has broken things that only a moron would ship the game with. And in every game those things have NEVER been fixed. So what hope is there they will fix the 100's of things broken in this game? None. In: COH3 Central
Thread: (2) Angoville (WIP)9 Mar 2023, 06:15 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Mar 2023, 01:37 AMdidimegadudu remind me again why this map was taken out of coh2 1v1 MP? Players did not like the layout in Coh2. They said it worked better in Coh1. Then I relaid it out for a map patch and ruined it. Then I asked for it to be reverted back to the original. Instead, we made another pass on it, but by then everyone hated it so much they never played it anyway. I think two VPs on one side was an issue. It led to defensive turtling on the right side.

Thread: Mini guide: Reshade for CoH35 Mar 2023, 17:46 PM Was just watching AE and he seems to be running ReShade. Curiously when he turned the camera to a very sharp angle you could actually finally see some SPECULAR lighting on the map. All of a sudden it looked better. I think adding some contrast may help the specular pop more. Something weird going on with specular in the game. This was a 1v1 map. This and the dark 4v4 map both seem to have more specular than most and look much better. In: COH3 Central
