Thread: The Excessive Amount Of Micro Required For Brummbar4 Dec 2020, 07:07 AM You want it buffed because you like the Brumbar or do you want it buffed because objectively the game will benefit from its buff? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Tank Destroyer Standardization4 Dec 2020, 06:56 AM This just makes me relieved Relic makes assymetrical games and ya'll aren't making games cuz otherwise they'd be mirror match Dune warcraft aoe or starcraft style RTS games. Standardized tanks what on earth, its CoH. vCoH brits had trucks nobody else did, that's what makes CoH special. PE didn't even have an engineer squad and only brits had a FHQ. And Wehrmacht had that single use KT nobody had an equivalent of. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: [Winter Balance Update] USF Feedback28 Nov 2020, 21:24 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Nov 2020, 18:11 PMblvckdream Didn't read the notes properly. It still takes only 55 fuel to get it then while Ost 222 and Flame HT costs 90 fuel (in live, if they keep the current changes even more), OKW Luchs 120 fuel and Puma 130. The only difference it will make is Kübelwagen and maybe 221 for a minute. I don't see that as a big problem. So yes, you can get ambulance + snares in time before vehicles arrive. No one gets weapon racks within the first five minutes btw. Not sure why you would even entertain the thought considering you don't have the munitions for more than 1-2 bars and you can invest those into a zook for LT or Bar for CPT even without weapon racks. Okay can you justify why this change needs to be made? wth? This is the most random change In: COH2 Balance
Thread: The 1v1 Vanillaflash Tournament28 Nov 2020, 19:37 PM I would argue OST and SU will especially suffer from no commanders as they are pretty commander reliant. USF imo can hold on its own, not sure about OKW either. UKF can hold on it sown In: News

Thread: [Winter Balance Update] USF Feedback28 Nov 2020, 06:26 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Nov 2020, 06:21 AMHeavy Sapper locking rifleman snare behind 2 officer or a full base building may turn out to be too late, USF may have to play 5-6 minute early game without snare, which can be dangerous again flame HT rush. why cant it just be lock behind the grenades tech with the cost back to 15 fu ? Yes changing the grenade snare vet 1 ability is going to cause a very big early game problem for USF. Bad move. Also how is the Scott OP? If you can micro it, its OP, like DevM, but that doesn't make it OP, it gets killed pretty easily and this nerf will overshadow it by Sherman. Pack Howitzer is important for the USF since USF doesn't have strong artillery. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Why Relic Needs to Stop Listening to the Community25 Nov 2020, 17:17 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Nov 2020, 04:46 AMgollo This is the worst thing could happen to coh2, the day this happen I will play another generic RTS, this is why people bought coh1 and coh2, this is what make this game different from other RTS, funny, you say casuals, I am pretty sure of those 8k playing probably 6-7K are casuales or people that play may b 3-6 times peer week, what you said is like removing sync kills from DOW... guess what happened with dow3 ( total failure). +1000 Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2020, 19:16 PMPip By balancing for the top level you naturally create a game that is fun for the lower levels as well, though. Stuff like Stonewall and Assault are arguably rather separate from "multiplayer balancing", they're not hugely relevant, though something similar making a return in the future would be fine. Starcraft -> Not fun for casuals, but good esports game. You think vCoH and CoH2 were designed for competitive players? Relic made Impossible Creatures for crying out loud, they aren't esports designers. CoH isn't esports-ready and its wildly successfuly, I think that should be a sufficient argument. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: CoH2 on 2020 Hardware25 Nov 2020, 16:52 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Nov 2020, 13:51 PMRosbone My guess is that larger game modes increase the two largest time killers: FOW and Pathing. I do want to point out in 4v4s there are two factors for lagging: * Increased server side lag - due to Relic servers * Increased client side lag - due to GPU I would be surprised if pathing is calculated client-side, so more pathing should make the server itself lag not the player. Fog of War on the other hand is calculated client-side, hence it is so susceptible to being hacked w/ map hacks. This is why Valve made fog of war server-side with DotA. Larger game modes simply have more pathing and AI behavior calculations which can create server side lag. Larger game modes also have more terrain-modifying explosion holes (which are known to be unoptimized and is an applied texture on the terrain). So as the game advances there are more and more shaders the GPU needs to process. In addition to just more units and thus more textures. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Why Relic Needs to Stop Listening to the Community24 Nov 2020, 14:35 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Nov 2020, 10:30 AMA. Soldier No offense my dude but I think you're full of yourself, not to mention that you're a hypocrite as well. Mr. Designer, really? I mean excuse me but weren't you the guy that said that you were an actual game developer? And Mr. History being all Wehraboos and I'm guessing racists and also Nazis for wanting to play a WW2 game that's set in well, WW2. I mean obviously a game is still a game meant for entertainment and fun so it won't be 100% historically accurate and that's understandable but fuck me, the leftist in you is really showing here. I didn't mean Mr. History or Wehraboo in a condescending tone?? There's nothing wrong with loving the historical aspect of CoH2, in fact I think its good that a huge chunk of the gamers love the historical aspect. Leftist what? I think CoH2 does a pretty good job in balancing between history and fun unlike Men of War. No I don't think history lovers are nazis... and I am arguing in favor for the more casual community that Relic is targeting. I'm actually arguing that the history lovers in the COH2 community is a larger portion than the competitive community that wants everything balanced. And they aren't very concerned about whether demo charges wipe squads Regarding Mr. Designer, I'm not trying to change the game, I prefer it to be like how Relic had it on release pre-balance patches, not how the community wants it but how the designers originally had for CoH.
