BTW, most importantly I want to point out and make clear MOST OF THE PLAYERBASE did not ask ColdTech to be removed. For most of the random anonymous players you never heard from, one day ColdTech disappeared and patched out out of nowhere.

You will be surprised at what the casual posters on reddit, official forum, and steam forum say about coldtech. You know,, the folks COH2.ORG like to derogotarily reference as if they don't generate most of the money for Relic. Not to forget the 70% mute fan base that never post.

Ever heard of this guy? Probably not. I haven't either. Just some random dude who stopped playing after coldtech removal 5yrs ago. Obviously more extreme case. But my point is random Joe is not complaining about ColdTech. 38 posts, very minimal. Then you got giant crybabies littering the forum for the past 7 years or community figures that get their voice heard.

But nah, crybabies need to cry so hard and loudly while the rest of us see the game we bought get changed. Unfortunately many of the well known communiry figures either were crtbabies themselves or were influenced by them. So coldtech got gutted.

When CoH3 comes out, (pro tip for people who like Relic's games) make a note to play the heck of out of it in the beginning before crybabies get things cut out of the game cuz Relic listens to them too much. Ans before community "balances" the game. There needs to be like a freeze game mode that let's you play the original releases, that you know, people paid $$$ for.

It was as close to universally despised as a mechanic as almost anything in COH2. It will not be coming back if Relic/Balance team are remotely sane.

Eg: Adding insult to injury, volkschreck blobs could effortlessly blow up your vehicles in the middle of blizzards whilst your inf huddled around weak fires. (Cold Package upgrade gave them insulation and the schreck)

Not close to universally, just vocal minority. Especially competitive well known coh2 figures complained about it being in 1v1s.

Most players are not competitive enough to care, fact. Then you have competitive 4v4ers and team players who don't post on forums. Then you have the vocal minority.

I including a lot of folks like coldtech.

So just to counterbalance the vocal minority:

YES YES YES BRING BACK COLDTECH NOW WE WANT IT NOW.

I bought Relic's CoH2, not the tears of crybabies from the community. I want Relic's design and games cuz I like Relic, and I paid for that, what they advertised and made. I bought deluxe edition way back for Soviets, coldtech all that..

I don't really care about what crybabies want, most players (people who just play and don't post on coh2.org all day, maybe sometimes on reddit or official forums or steam (yes they are players too) i.e. 85% of the playerbase) just want Relic's game and it to be better and cooler than vCoH.

In starcraft the factions are not the same, you have the terrans,zerg and protoss you too have a assymetrical game in it even more so than Coh2 i would say, so i really don't get your point here. Also about learning how to play : sure i can understand this argument up to a certain point say i can't counter a panzerschreck/zook blob and i should learn to play.

But my point was about utilities, and really that should be looked because you can say assymetrical game all you want, but the UKF is the outlier in that regard(abilitie wise) and really i am not saying nerf it to the ground but i think most people would agree that UKF is not in a good place right now and could use a rework how that is to be done i don't but i like to discuss nonetheless.

Starcraft isn't assymmetrical because you can play mirror.

You are comparing weekly WR (wait till at least we have a month worth of data) when there is so much fluctuation from week to week in the case of 1v1.

UKF has always been a mess when the balance of the faction revolves around how OP are IS or not, with the last patch unfortunately not addressing.


UKF will always be underpicked in pro play unless they are massively overpowered.


As far as preview changes, just voice your opinion and let's just try it to shape it cause this one will take a good time to build.

Aimstrong chose UKF, that was like the only UKF match. And he lost to VonIvan. UKF was a meme faction in ML4.

Pro players don't choose UKF cuz its OP? what lol? If anyone wanted to win ML4 and UKF was OP they would choose UKF not Soviets.

ML4 made it clear: Soviets and Ostheer are best. USF is 2nd, OKW 3rd, and UKF is the worst. UKF has too many weaknesses

I've honestly never noticed it.

I just know he somehow made it a 105 at first and then changed it to a regular 75mm gun which makes sense to me.

Might do a test one of these days tho, record it to see how it looks but I doubt it's very noticable.



Funny you mention that, I had another suggestion for a new commander when they were doing those about an year ago that included the Pershing mixed in with other Armor/tank type units.

Now it has nothing do with changes specifically for the Armor Company but I just decided to mention it since it's somewhat of a rehash of the old CoH Armor Company:



I really think the Pershing, E8 and Greyhound all deserve to be in other more uh, "practical" let's just say doctrines/commanders.

That commander is going to make the other commanders dead. Not going to solve our dead commander problem
