    COH2 Current issues and why we need a Definitive Edition

    Posted: 09 Jan 2020 08:34 AM PST

    COH2 is probably my favorite RTS, the amount of detail and strategy in this game is amazing and has an extreme learning curve that can keep players attention for hundreds of hours. However, there's major components missing that keep it from being a competitive RTS game and keep it from the spot light.

    1.Bugs,glitches, performance: Relic has come a long way in terms of fixing bugs, but we still see tank stutters, pathing issues, and squad splits (models are left far behind). Seemingly small nuisances but can have huge impacts in such a strategic/close match where every move counts. Players still encounter bugsplats (much less frequent now though) and the main menu frame rate is still hideous.

    1. Matchmaking/ranks: Matchmaking has some serious flaws especially the more players involved (4v4), Free weekenders are matched against 300+ hour veterans that not only make a boring/frustrating match, but also scare away all the potential new players.

    3.Ranks are vague, unsatisfying and don't mean much. Cool I'm rank 11. Does that mean anything? Am I rewarded for ranking up? Great I made it to rank 13 but now am back to 11 because of leavers, afks, and poor matchmaking. Can't take it seriously.

    1. Reporting/Penalties: Relic just came out with an out-of-game reporting system. They still don't have an option that allows you to report the numerous toxic/trolling/afk people in-game like other modern strategy games. This game will never reach the public competitive level as long as there's these people who ruin matches unchecked.

    Relic can't seem to justify the resources needed to fix these issues on a 7 year old game and patches/fixes take months because of this. Free weekends and great deals seem to temporarily breath new life, but players soon drop off due to these problems (there is also a big paywall for new players who do not buy the bundle on sale). A definitive edition would justify more resources to fix these issues, put this fantastic game back on the radar, and would actually be able to keep the players it brings in unlike it's current state.

    COH 1 Nebelwerfer mission funny voice actor Easter egg. Anyone else notice this?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2020 05:17 PM PST

    On the Nebelwerfer mission something very peculiar happens in the dialogue. When you destroy one of the batteries The American commander guy goes, "great we took down another" in American accent then ends the sentence saying "Nebelveuurrfer" in the most comedic German accent ever, I'm almost certain it's a different voice actor, maybe they realised after recording he said it wrong and just spliced in the German voice actor saying it from another bit of dialogue. Hilarious sounding anyway 🤣

    Soviet 4v4 Tips

    Posted: 09 Jan 2020 09:20 AM PST

    Anyone got any advice for Soviet 4v4? I usually play 1v1s and 2v2s but I was looking to delve into some bigger games. Just thought I'd ask if there are any significant differences in how I should be playing?

    Will relic ever support mods?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2020 11:55 PM PST

    As many of you know, once upon a time, Company of Heroes was known for it's modding, with the first game having mods from ww1 all the way to modern warfare. But then everything changed when microtransactions came. When modding was needed the most, it dissapeared (relic "broke" the mods lol) Many ideas and features died with it. From towing to custom units. Also Relic decided to remove many models. It is a shame really because the game has far better performance and graphics than first one so it would be nice to see some ACTUAL F**KIN MODS, not just tuning packs.

    Active discord servers or other groups for COH2?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2020 12:53 PM PST

    Are there any active groups where I can find teammates to play with? I'm in company of zeroes but they don't seem to be very active.
