Thread: vCoH US - what do I do wrong ?6 Oct 2014, 06:50 AM Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2014, 23:47 PMCampaigner I believe I was attacked while capping/mine laying but I try react as quick as I can. Yeah I lose units. Guess practice is the only thing to fix that. Exactly. It happens to the best players but keeping your units alive is very important. Especially as US where your earn your veterency while fighting. Don´t get me wrong, you got a god unit preservation already. Thats not your biggest problem from my observation. Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2014, 23:47 PMCampaigner Actually I WAS trying to flank there! I thought the lone Riflesquad would take the MGs attention and leave the rest but that didn't work out since I had to little space between them. Yes you try, yes it didn´t work and it´s good you understand why. There are many ways to performe a good flanking attack. The most are about spreading the own units and avoid blobing. Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2014, 23:47 PMCampaigner Other things I need to know is, are Rangers and Airborne equally good vs vehicles and tanks ? Hard to say. Depends. I´d say the Airborne Ranger are better because their weapons got a better penetration (but you habe to pay 125 for the recoils, the Ranger Bazokkas are free). You see both rarely because of there high mp cost in matters of reinforcment and upkeep. Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2014, 23:47 PMCampaigner I hesitate going airborne since they don't have artillery and the other two have great early and lategame things, leaving Airborne in a niche (against Panzer Elite perhaps ?) Thats the point, Air laggs arty. Many people go air vs PE but mostly because of the strafe vs gren blobs. Jump back to quoted post4 Oct 2014, 23:47 PMCampaigner Thanks for aid Fanatic. How many replays did you watch ? Two. The one a was referring to and a longer game. Don´t good much time and writing in english is long and painful process for me. Normaly i prefer a audio commentary but i don´t know if this would work here. In: COH Central

Thread: vCoH US - what do I do wrong ?4 Oct 2014, 08:22 AM I am not a native speaker so its really hard for me to give you advices. But i will try it. In your game vs kalagz you had a uncommon macro: 3 Pios, Jeep, 3 Rifles, WSC (without building a unit from it), heal. I would recommend to use a default strategy for the begin and learn the game bascis frist. Especially if you don´t know what to build in certain situations. Here are two, more or less, default build orders: #1 2nd Pio T1 Rifle Rifle Rifle Rifle BAR heal T4 Sherman What ever you need next Doktrin: Inf #2 2nd Pio T1 Rifle Rifle Rifle Rifle SY T3 M8 heal / BAR What ever you need next Doktrin: Inf Next point is your micro management. You cap under fire, lay mines under fire (both is bad since you get extra demage), you tend to lose units and to often your units are idle. Thats obvious in the replay. You use 1 - 3 units and the rest is standing around doing nothing. Also very important: You dont flank. In this game you had a big blob which attacked a building with a mg in it. End of the story: All units get pinned. The key to a successful US gameplay is to make best use of your rifels. Use all or ur units when u attack. Not just one or two Try to flank. About the doctrin, inf is the most common in 1v1 as US. Always go for the right side for off map arty. Use it so take out atgs or mgs in combination with a rifle or m8 attack. To sum it up: Think your about using a default macro and focus on improve your micro management. In: COH Central

Thread: RELIC: how about an update_news_something3 Oct 2014, 20:57 PM This thread is.. i don´t know what it is.. Jump back to quoted post3 Oct 2014, 20:10 PMKreatiir What you are saying is that you are not caring about this website, in more company-related language. You are making a huge mistake, your key-players are here and not at the very poorly graphically designed website of companyofheroes.com. Yes I said it, the layout is a mess. Related quote on another topic; The time that companies communicated behind doors and only brought out vague comments to the outside world has passed a long time. If they can't communicate more open to a community of more than 8000 members, they will take the loss. Some of us will keep on playing, but if the keyfigures of the game go over to another game, the game is doomed. Let me be clear, the following keyplayers / coh2 related things are on a serious break / left the game / are not active / not serious anymore about the game; - Ipkai - Ami - Reborn - Rogers (RNP) - Milka - SNF (streams are off since ... ?) - Rewind - Siberian - HelpingHans - ESL - So much more I can't think of right now. - ... (Sorry if I wrote your name and you're very active and positive about the game) This should be alarming for Relic, and they should see this as TOP priority to gain them back. It's not just a few players who lost interest,. It's about streaming, charismatic people, community keyplayers, ... It's about losing your ambassadors of the game. Some people who are into marketing know the word Ambassador is widely used and seen as one of the main focusses of companies, in Europe it is. Get ambassadors and they spread the word. I've seen it with my own eyes in Enemy Territory. The pro's leave to another game, the caster and competitive designers go? Well the scene is as death as a turtle trying to cross a highway. They need to see this community as a TOOL they can use. In that scenario, we would win and they would win. Good post. I noticed how many lets call them key community members left over the time or changed the sound of there posts from a supportive to a critical style. The same happend with the key community members and players of CoH1 after the steam migration. Well you can still play CoH1 but the community never recovered from this hughe setback. In: Lobby

Thread: Why are there so few good players in the CoH2 playerbase.30 Sep 2014, 13:45 PM Definitely a issue worth discussing. I think there are many reasons why CoH2 lags a competitive playerbase. > bad marketing Well there was the regular tripel A marketing hype but everything afterwards was more or less bad. If you don´t know about a game you will never play it. >bugs No need to explain it i guess. Everyone hates to play a game which isn´t working as expected. >bad performance We dicussed this many times, IpKaiFung nailed it: Jump back to quoted post30 Sep 2014, 12:13 PMIpKaiFung Also doesn't help that the game runs like ass, it's quite weird that the game runs WORSE (losing at least 30fps and jerky camera movement) when all my settings are on low or off than when I have everything on medium or high. >small playerbase General speaking CoH isn't a game suitable for the mass for several reasons. I don´t want to go into details here. Most people who buy the game play the campaing and maybe some single palyer content and move on. Compare the sale numbers with the numbers of people playing online. Many people just don´t want to play vs other people. And many of those who want prefer team games over 1v1 matches. Not to mention the people who gave the game a chance and stopped playing for what ever reason (bugs, balance, to hard to learn the game, performance issues, ...). >community behavior I can´t compre the situation with other games but let´s say i am a new player, read about CoH2 so i decide to check a stream and see what this game is about. And while doing so i read the chat where some people are in the middle of a troll party. Not the best impression. More Mentoring, guides, events and tutorials would be great as well since learning CoH is not exactly easy. >no CoH1 style in game ladder HappyPhace is right: Jump back to quoted post29 Sep 2014, 23:39 PMHappyPhace People may think it trivial but adding in game leagues/rank insignia to distinguish yourself from others is one of the biggest motivators for people to keep on playing. CoH1 had the 1-20 rank system, SC2/LoL/CSGO also have their own leagues/ranks that are a huge factor in driving people to play more and more. All CoH2 has is an out of game leader board with a number that signifies how supposedly good you are, which frankly isn't a fun feature to show how much you have improved or how good you are. Relic need to give players a reason to keep on playing and to keep on improving (which will in turn bring in more "good" players), I think a proper rank system is a major factor. It goes without saying the general balance of the game, bugs, optimisation will drive off good players as well who decide their time is better focused elsewhere. The current system is Call of Duty style -> boring. In CoH1 i always had a objective like reaching rank 16 and get this Star. The ladder was a pyramide with the best on the top. You achived something by playing the game. In CoH2 i reach the max level like everyone else and thats it. Ok there is a ladder but not even in the game so knowone cares. At all it´s just not attrative to play 1v1´s. So the most people don´t do it. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: COH terms24 Sep 2014, 14:13 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Sep 2014, 10:41 AMVladislavs89 Hey guys. Have a question. What does MVGame mean? Also, what the hell does MVDane mean?? And Kappa, for that matter... See a lot of these on COH streams. Thanks. They are Twitch Emoticons. Twitch makes use of the ordinary Smileys like and some additional "faces" like MVGame which refers to ManVersusGame, a popular Streamer on Twitch.tv. There is no "offical" meaining. Unofficial the meaning refers to the expression of the face. MVGame is often used in a funny, sarcastic or ironic context, trolling included. Since MVGame is very popular in the CoH Community MVDane is an alteration to troll ImperialDane (which worked well as far as i heared he banned more people then Xcom). So MVGame becomes MVDane. Same goes for Kappa . You often see Kappa in a sarcastic context. Jump back to quoted post24 Sep 2014, 13:39 PMVladislavs89 So why is it even there?... Because Twitch wanted some unique Emoticons.
