Thread: Extremely Buggy Replays7 Feb 2021, 18:35 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Feb 2021, 09:39 AMZaneyZap Good morning all I believe I have found the cause of the crashes while watching replays and a walkaround for the issue. Its the sound system in coh2 that causes the crashes. After disabling all sound outputs in windows, I could no longer get the replay to crash. Here are my attempts: 1:40 Our assault announcement (Just making sure I can still crash the replay like usual) 1:38 Our **Something announcement from osteer (Just making sure I can still crash the replay like usual) 1:35 still crashes after turning volume down in game (First attempt at walkaround fix) --6:34 no crash Disablet all sound output in windows**. Restart coh2 Sound no longer initialized by coh2 10:12:34.45 SOUND -- Failed to open Miles driver, error: 'waveOutOpen() failed.'! Frequency: 44100 \| Channels: 2. 10:12:34.45 SOUND -- Failed to initialize Miles driver! 10:12:34.45 SOUND -- Shutting down ... 10:12:34.45 SOUND -- Shutdown completed! --7:06 no crash Disablet all sound output in windows. Restart coh2 --4:06 no crash Disablet all sound output in windows. Restart coh2 --3:17 no crash Disablet all sound output in windows. Restart PC --3:05 no crash Disablet all sound output in windows. Restart coh2 --5:07 no crash Disablet all sound output in windows. Restart coh2 --5:01 no crash Disablet all sound output in windows. Restart coh2 I hope this helps I have also noticed when I adjust sound it increases chance of crash In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Extremely Buggy Replays7 Feb 2021, 18:32 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jan 2021, 00:13 AMsuora Yes this is happening to me too, typically my replays crash in the first 5 seconds. Another part of the game made almost unusable by the update. What's your main game monitor resolution In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Extremely Buggy Replays7 Feb 2021, 18:31 PM Jump back to quoted post7 Feb 2021, 17:26 PMZaneyZap And here's even more! (Special thanks to The_Angry_Dutchman/Stijndee) Another cause is the resolution. Watching the replay at 2560 x 1440 will crash the game. Lowering the resolution is a walkaround. Here logs from watching the replay and what time they crash and resolution. 1:40 Crash 2560 x 1440 @120FPS --No crash 1920×1080 @120FPS restart coh2 --No crash 1920×1080 @120FPS restart coh2 --No crash 1920×1080 @120FPS restart coh2 --No crash 1920×1200 @120FPS restart coh2 --No crash 1920×1440 @120FPS restart coh2 1:57 Crash 2560 x 1440 @120FPS DUDE... I have 2560x1440 monitor too!!! Is this the root cause? Anyone else here can confirm replay crashes at 1440p, anybody at 1080p. Good QA work dude In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Zis-3 as an AT gun5 Feb 2021, 16:23 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Feb 2021, 16:20 PMProtos Angelus Pak has the penetration, ROF and stun shot M57 has good tracking but low pen Raketen has retreat and above average model number 6 pounder has sprint ZiS has barrage and 6 man and worst tracking. Other drawbacks: Is locked behind a T2 building which means possible backtech. Stop crying and deal with it. It's far from "I can do everything" unit. If ZiS is a problem for you, then balance is not something you should be concerned about, rather getting better and more alert. Agree In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Zis-3 as an AT gun5 Feb 2021, 15:34 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Feb 2021, 06:17 AMZeroZeroNi I think your ignoring the fact that it has really long range so it can fire from your fow(so you can't see that unless it actually fires). and the time between each shell is tight too. I think nerf to the time between shots it's receiving will make it pretty balanced they just need to remove the first show inaccuracy they added last patch. In regards to nerfing Zis and/or its barrage. AT rounds shoot out of FoW too and so does most other barrage abilities, so I am not sure if this argument counts. Does it wipe too often? No, rarely. It costs munitions to do it. Rounds travel very slowly in the air so you can easily dodge it. The sound is also very distinctive. It has a lot of scatter so it has a good chance to miss Usually my Zis barrage gets countered if the units close the gap and start engaging the crew members. Zis gun is weaker than the Pak but it has the barrage ability to make up for it. Its okay for units to be strong, that's what makes games fun. It is just not good if there is no counter play; which the barrage sound, recon, not blobbing, and watching the animation are all good ways to counter it. Such a mediocre unit does not need much attention. I rarely have ever versed a soviet player and felt outplayed because he used a Zis gun barrage... Also, it is okay for units to be different from their counterparts as this is an assymetrical game. It is a good thing that the Pak is very different from the Zis in their abilities. Pak guns target weak point has very little counter play, however it makes the unit very fun to use because it is powerful. Tbh this ability is worth looking at more than the Zis barrage, but imo both are in a good place. Finally, watch the ML tournament. You don't see the Zis or its barrage outperforming. In fact, many occasions of it missing and forced to reposition. Nerfing this unit any further is very strange. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Zis-3 as an AT gun4 Feb 2021, 21:25 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Feb 2021, 20:59 PMZeroZeroNi it kinda does, it's hard to react to and unless you can recognize quick enough that it's comming your units are toast. counter play is kinda important for balance. Doesn't it point upwards before barraging In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Zis-3 as an AT gun4 Feb 2021, 18:32 PM Of all things, Zis barrage needs a nerf? What a rather strange decision In: COH2 Balance
