Thread: Use of ML-20 Howie?22 Feb 2021, 05:59 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Feb 2021, 04:31 AMAntemurale They're strong vs OKW because howitzers are very strong against forward HQs. Otherwise, Katy is the better option. Yeah, this is the main point. If the game is close I won't be spending resources on an ML-20 but I will if it's a meme or if there's a vulnerable forward heal or repair OKW truck. But really you're better of just getting an ISU and using the bomb drop to do high damage and have you or a mate go in with tanks and finish it off. In: Red Army Strategies
Thread: question re: team games21 Feb 2021, 01:37 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Feb 2021, 19:49 PMRosbone I agree. I did not take it as bad information. To me ALL information is good information. I am new to the type of coding that uses web calls. So I am not a pro in any sense of the word. And as I keep stating, I purposely left out web calls in MakoCELO to make it reliable. That is why I was asking if earlier versions had these issues. Maybe Relic will fix their code (it would literally take 5 seconds to do) and we can get back to normal life To put it in perspective, They just need to uncomment a couple lines and be done. I had to rewrite MakoCELO, then write a log system just like they are using in Coh2, and troubleshoot issues with it. So their lack of a 2 second fix has cost me personally days of coding, researching, and testing. It almost feels like Relic does not care about their customers at all. Which is really sad. Would a fix to this issue in-game be turning off MakoCELO after it grabs the ranks for you to see? Seems easy enough at the moment but annoying to have to restart with each game. As for Relic not caring, they care enough (or maybe it was mandated) that they update the game to 64-bit for the xbox live game pass And there's at least two Relic employees working on taking feedback and fixing bugs!

Thread: question re: team games20 Feb 2021, 01:39 AM You'd need a 3rd party program to tell you their ranks, and even then it's not guaranteed. I use CELO but there are one or two other popular ones out there. It's better if you don't automatically leave because 1) finding a game can take a while 2) the arranged team you're up against could be really bad 3) there could be one or two random players in your 4v4 game that aren't part of the arranged team. There won't be a separate ladder of arranged teams because the playerbase is so low so your solution for the time being ought to be 1) don't play the game 1.5) play with your own team 2) only play 1v1 3) only play against bots 4) be a dick and leave whenever you're against an arranged team In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: How to Make Howtizers (not SPG) more Viable in Team games ?11 Feb 2021, 00:28 AM The way I see it, rocket artillery has a distinct advantage over traditional artillery for the fundamental differences in what they do and their mobility. The problem with the on-map artillery is that a good player or a good team will have a counter in their commander for it. Even in 4v4 there isn't a lot of flexibility in an arranged team in terms of commander choice. I don't really see a way "fixing" it; often good teams that try to use artillery pieces will keep building them and invest in AA vehicle to shoot down incoming aircraft or spotting aircraft (this is harder for allies as the stuka dive bomb doesn't come from a plane). Any feasible option now is just too late and I don't think Relic would want to spend their time working on it. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Match making11 Jan 2021, 16:51 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Jan 2021, 12:29 PMoakdk Hi but in 80 procent of the time, i will get chinese players who does not understand to play, and after 3 min just quit...... It's not just Chinese people that do this lmao. If you're going to want to play team games, find some teammates. Even people that are "bad" individually can be good together as a team. Maybe not top 50 or top 100 but still winning 60-80% of the matches. Join some Discords like someone else so kindly posted a link to. Biggest rule is don't be a dick to your teammates and to your opponents. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: coh2 global stats5 Jan 2021, 00:18 AM Jump back to quoted post4 Jan 2021, 22:31 PMKatitof Relic does not provide source data anymore. Its impossible to make. I'm not a tech guy by any means, but could someone go into the game data and find the information manually? I see how even doing that would be difficult because there are so many values for even a single weapon, and there are so many weapons...but is there also some software that one could use to organize that data after having it look through the file? This all sounds like a lot of work lmao In: Lobby
