This is classic "I just lost so go rage on forums" post. But in CoH3 retreating infantry are so easy to focus fire and kill the squad outright. Does anyone else feel this?

I retreat with 3 models and if they can get a half decent position with a squad or two they can snipe them so easily. Are the retreat modifiers in COH3 just unforgiving?

This happens even at the early stages of the game where firepower is weak.

My constructive suggestion would be modify it so the survivability of squads is similar to coh2. Retreating squads receive DPS (so forced to wait to heal up) but not kill 4 models outright (this should only be with a lot of firepower).

Its just another thing to encourage blobbing.

Rage post over, thank you for letting me vent.

1. Keep an infantry presence on the field at all times - I see you there, with all your units stacked up at base because you over extended. I don't want my flank to be totally bare, and this ends up with a harsh double team, even if I am in a very far back defensive position.

2. Don't Blob like a noob. I love watching your whole army being suppressed by 1 MG. I see that stuka demolish you over and over, not fun for either of us.

3. Build your own meds. I am completely fine with you using my meds in the early game, but I don't want to see your blob stopping my men getting healthcare (thanks Obama)

4. Please cooperate your build with mine. I will happily adapt my strategy to your build, but if you see me with a katyusha out and we desperately need tanks, please don't build priest.

5. I am just super salty from my last few games lolol. and yes I know, I should play 1v1 but 2v2 can be so magical.

Please add your 2v2 random auto gripes below

As much as I love ww2, I think it is time for COH to explore a new time period. Either cold war alternative history escalation or a modern warfare scenario. Think red alert/Generals (not as farfetched) and COD4.

This would bring in a new fanbase, new units, new abilities and a potentially good story.

Factions; USA/SOV base, expanding into Chinese/NATO.

Just imagine the doctrinal abilities; Drone Strikes, AC130, Helicopter loiter, Helicopter infantry roping down, MISSILES, Javelin Missile going up and down.

Units; Abrahms tank, Bradley, T90, spetznatz, M4 vs AK47, Humvees

Coh2 does have a loyal following of Hentai Wehrmacht lovers but I think the main attraction to this game is the gameplay. So therefor I think they will follow as well as new players. Africa, the best unit you will get will be a tiger. Fighting on italy presents more options but I think expansions will be restricted. Cold war give many possible theatres and therefore interesting maps, camos etc. As for futuristic war, It would be to close to dawn of war universe.

But dont worry whatever the theatre of war, I will still be playing COH

yeah i get that cloth, but there have been many patches since to fix. Lelic

@hector I dont think healing makes a big difference to how the factions play. ambulance is pretty cheap for what you get, mobile reinforcement/healing aura. But my gripe is with the method of healing, having a healing aura instead of medics is not a case of faction diversity, its just a case of an annoying medic mechanic.

ps. Brits do get medics from glider!
