How's the online population right now? I've been playing the DOW2 retribution beta but i feel tempted to come back for some CoH. DOW2 is fun, but CoH provides the same feel of combat while being a much tighter game overall, and I just feel that DoW2 was kind of shoe-horned into an engine that didn't really suit it (mostly with melee combat). Are there enough players online nowadays to make finding a game not an exercise in frustration????

I felt kind of horrible about stomping the poo poo out of three Axis players who were blatantly maphacking (even though our team wasn't), and then one of the fuckers maphack mortared my 30 kill Vet3 Sniper. gently caress those nerds. They deserved that 26 kill Howitzer barrage.

So i got the CoH beta client but I see no custom games in the lobby, and the PLAY and automatch buttons are greyed out. I can play vCoH just fine with no problems, any reason the beta isn't working? E: Also, even though I have both opposing fronts and the original CoH, the game is telling me i need to buy tales of valor in order to play Americans or Wher. What the gently caress relic?

You probably don't have all your keys linked to your account. The beta is only for playing custom games, and very few people are doing that. You basically have to round up some people and organize games yourself. Unfortunately we kind of stopped doing that because Roumba is a big whiny baby!

After playing a few more retail beta games and sorting through the barely literate musings of Gamereplays.org, I kind of wish they'd just go back to leaving CoH alone. I'm not sure why anyone decided that engineers needed better suppression resistance, but Wehr is absolute dogshit in the beta right now. Not only are Paks/Pumas (the units most people lean on right now) much worse, but they've somehow managed to make MG42s even more irrelevant with the goddamn engineer suppression change. Just increase the cost of Kangaroos to 500mp/100 fuel, fix M18 camouflage/Hetzer vet and call it a loving day. Phrosphor posted:New Relic RTS to be announced in August. Are we interested? My guess is that it's CoH2, though I can't say I'm excited. After witnessing the clowncar trainwreck that is DoW2, you know it's going to be a letdown.

Beta 5 patch is out.  STRAFING RUN NERF, EAT poo poo AIRBORNE PLAYERSBeta 5 Notes posted:General Those are in addition to the previous beta patches, which can be found here: http://www.gamereplays.org/communit...howtopic=744221 Highlights:- They fixed AT Gun bug firing.  - Bren in Bren can no longer repair while the Bren is in the Bren. - Vehicle Vet now completely worthless for Wehr. - PE Players can literally go gently caress themselves.

I can't believe that the made vehicle vet do literally nothing at all. It isn't even like a suboptimal choice it just doesn't change any value on your vehicles.

All I see is: Halftracks, Motorcycles, and Schwimmwagens no longer gain a received accuracy bonus from veterancy. Is there a line that I'm literally not seeing where it talks about pumas and paks, because no one gets vehicle vet for their bikes. It's cool how wehr t1 is cheaper now; maybe they won't get pushed around by rifles so much in the early game.

The Panzerjager Kommand change is dumb. They basically increased the cost specifically to slow down the PE AC rush, and you're supposed to recoup the savings on the Marder unlock (lmao) and Group Zeal. But if you have half a brain and skip the Marder unlock, it's effectively just a giant gently caress you for anyone who wants MP44s and Group Zeal. I agree that the T1-T3 AC rush is a little too good in beta with AT Grenades being decent now, but they should have just increased the fuel cost on the drat AC. What a lousy change. The Marder is still garbage, in case anyone was wondering. Doug Lombardi posted:I can't believe that the made vehicle vet do literally nothing at all. It isn't even like a suboptimal choice it just doesn't change any value on your vehicles. I believe that it still benefits PaKs, but that's it. Oh, and Stuka cooldown. It's loving stupid because bikes are literally loving useless mid/late game now. If they don't have a chance to dodge bazooka/RR/57mm fire, how the gently caress are you supposed to take out Vetted US snipers? Oh, right. You're not.

I guess the jeep has the same problem but rifles can kill a sniper easily with BAR fire. Or they just run the sniper over with an m10 They should probably get rid of vehicle vet and put the affected units under either support or armor.

Nebalebadingdong posted:I guess the jeep has the same problem but rifles can kill a sniper with a volley or two of BAR fire. Or they just run the sniper over with an m10 You're right that the Jeep has the same problem, but the US Sniper is really a lot more valuable than the Wehr sniper. Wehr has smaller squads, elite armor (snipers have 100% accuracy on elite when it retreats), and dependency on fixed weapon crews. Also, the Wehr sniper can effortlessly be pulled out of camo for easy countersniping by a Recon Run -- or even just strafed if munitions income is high and you don't give a gently caress. And then there's the fact that the Vetted US Sniper has a better chance to score a hit in a sniper war due to his received accuracy bonus. FWIW the PaK change is pretty nice for the Jeep, especially in conjunction with the US Mortar buff (reduced setup time). PaKs are probably gonna be set to hold fire a lot more.

wca posted:"Riflemen experience bonus modifiers found on Stickybombs and BAR upgrades have been moved on to the Supply Yard upgrades" Riflemen get a bonus to earned experience (i.e. faster veterancy) when you research Stickies and BARs. The way it works now, they also get a bonus from the Supply Yard upgrades that reduce manpower drain. The change basically just shifts all of the bonus into the Supply Yard upgrades. Basically they're just trying to make Riflemen a little bit less dominating in the early/mid phase without making them poo poo in the late game. It's not a bad change, but I'd rather they just address the problems Wehr early game has in the beta right now.
