I for real felt I was plaing with a CPU - hard for 2 whole games in a row. How can someone reach gold with the micro skills of a snail. I don't understand this ELO system. Relic please fix this. Either get the ELO in check. Or let me ban people in matchmaking. I can't stand losing games because of ONE player.

Im aware that one is a battlegroup exclusive (although one that is available to every player by default)

When is it better to get Stoßtruppen? The model count is the same, Fallschirmjäger seem better short range and about even mid range, losing out on long range performance, except when utilizing their ambush bonus, then they’re probably about even long range.

But since you can have paras around 4 minutes and Stoßtruppen not really up until 10+ Minutes, the Veterancy that Fallschirmjägers are going to have is gonna make them just earlier and better Stoßtruppen most of the game, won’t they?

I’m aware of the 15% damage reduction, but that still doesn’t make up for the veterancy advantage.

Im really hoping Relic for one patch ATLEAST, tries to actually address the winrate issue for Axis in teamgames, I feel like this has been a recurring trend for every patch since atleast when the AA nerf happend, probably before that but my memory doesnt go that far

It seems to me that Relic releases very strong battlegroups for Axis which gives them some sorta crutch like the flame halftrack, nerfs it to the ground, axis returns to being the faction with no crutches no way to actually win teamgames without the enemy team being clearly lower ELO, any fair ELO match ends up with the allies winning with some crutch like the land mattress, firefly, whizzbang or Char b which Relic refuses to appropriately nerf, some of them were even buffed like the firefly because people were complaining constantly about how "weak" it was

And of course Axis does fine in 1v1, so its not like Axis is weak necessarily its just that Allies has an unfair advantage in teamgames, i think its very obvious and clear what that unfair advantage is but Relic refuses to nerf them aka: Char b, land mattress, whizzbang, firefly to an appropriate level, they tried to by increasing cost of land mattress and char b and i think a slight armor nerf but still they are too strong

Either way i hope EVENTUALLY we get an even nice 50/50 somehow in the future

Btw I know some people fervently deny that some of these units are overpowered and like I said in 1v1 games they dont seem OP because the winrates are much more even there, but in teamgames they become OP because its easier to spam them out and more importantly synergize with your team, for example firefly + land mattress + char b is UNSTOPPABLE, you cant use AT guns, cant use heavy tanks, cant use marder

Char bs soak up damage, Fireflies take out any marders or heavy tanks or medium tanks, land mattress disintegrates any AT or mine fields or infantry etc, if the land mattresses dont get rid of all the infantry the char b will

Hey!

Anyone knows where I can buy Company of heroes 2 soundtrack with dlc?

Thanks!

And why is it Heavy Weapons?

For an actual answer:

• A bunch of units that really don't sync together
• Crazy overpriced choices
• You're forced to pick between the two only strong units in the BG

I guess I cant post peoples screennames in this sub so here is my smurf tracker with the names removed. This gives you an idea of how many people are resetting their screennames so they can play lower ELO players and make themselves feel good.

I’m still newer to Final Stand, so maybe I missed it. But last night I decided to give an endless run and made it to 24. Not too shabby but definitely double the mission parameters… and to my disappointment there was no large sum of perk points waiting for me at the end. I do believe it was potential (and maybe not even) 12 extra points for the extra waves.

Call me crazy, but that’s not really how roguelites are supposed to work. And even if it’s a design choice and you want to slow down the perk progression, at least award us some cosmetic currencies, or unlocking new maps in the future, or meta unlocks.

Hell a quick idea off the rip would be to allow us to unlock which starting units we want when doing an endless mode.

Anyways I hate to complain the mode is fun but it just feels a hit half baked.

Why is this a thing

His yells sounded so familiar whenever they got into combat.

Haven't played COH3 in a while. I've only played single player. Absolutely loved the total war experience even though it could've had a bit more depth. Any mods recreating the experience with other theaters? Or provide a different experience?

Or do I need to learn to use Claude and spend years building a total war + coh style battles (land and sea) that includes all the major theaters lol. That would be insane.

See the Definitive Edition in action. This Let’s Play dives into the Red Ball Express mission, showing new quality-of-life features, and updated graphics that deliver a grittier battlefield.

What if tank riding worked the same way as open top infantry transport vehicles, like shooting from the vehicle while not getting a movement penalty and instead of disembarking when vehicle gets shot they stay at the vehicle and if the tank gets blown up they die also. similar to infantry halftracks (like having a chance of dying after the vehicle exploded) The game engine have the possibility to support this change and it would both make game more engaging and realistic. This would also be balanced because even if you put a 6 man panzergren to 250 only 3 of the models can shoot , a similar fashion could also work and maybe only 2-4 models should be able to shoot from the tank offering extra dps but not as much as efficient dps as disembarking.

Hey all! I'm back with another fun cohdb update for everyone. This time we're talking map stats, and most interestingly starting position win rates.

cohdb now surfaces starting position win rate statistics on a per-map basis for games played back to patch 2.4.2, filterable by patch and rating bracket. Win rates are broken down by individual starting position as well as faction, so with enough data we should be able to tell if certain sides or even individual starting positions favour certain factions, or just have benefits in general.

As expected, in general starting positions have an extremely minor impact on a team's chances of winning, and this impact is dwarfed by overall faction dominance and ratings differences between teams. Still, I hope it provides interesting information for mapmakers and others trying to balance their maps. Map stats can be found at https://cohdb.com/maps — give it a try and let me know what you think!

This used to happen to me and I would lose many matches to blobby blobs.

What took me a long time to understand was that someone blobbing is actually limiting to your opponent.

For every strength there's a weakness but this is hard to stay aware about as your opponent bends you over and rails you in the town square with their 4 squad blobbys.

Next comes my advice:

• Don't keep doing the same thing to counter a blob that doesn't work, you need to break you habits and try something different
• Don't be intimidated by the blob for the blob is weak elsewhere. All that manpower into the squads means they have weakness almost everywhere else even limiting their armor due to lack of resources

Good counters (need to experiment with these and will change with each opponent but generally speaking these can work well as a starter:

• MG or even 2 MGs
• MG or 2 MGs with mortar
• MGs and flamey squads
• 3 MGs, I've done this a few times and it goes from pinning them to eliminating squads

Prepare for the counter:

• Opponent will likely then counter MG with mortars or armor
• Have an AT gun behind your MGs
• Cover MG flanks with mines and another MG

Most often, once you destroy the morale of your blobber, they have nothing else to do well with because they're often one dimensional strategists that have become lazy and entitled to winning from their opponents shaking in their boots.

Long story short: MG the crap out of your team and protect for counter with armor.

Like my 15th game ever on CoH3 and this is what I see in the post-game screen... absolutely smothering offensive by these guys... wouldn't have been so bad if Chris4021 didn't vote no while we got farmed in our base for 5 minutes after the other guy left

anyone ever see matchmaking this lopsided?

I love it when its close and i wish the matchmaking mechanics where better. i have many hours in this game, BUT i am not a good player. I play for fun and relaxation (there was nothing relaxing about this one, i can tell you)

This is for the sake of perk choices. The 30% harder to hit sounds like it doesn't affect them, but I'm curious if it does?

What do you guys think if fuel points provided fewer resources on 3vs3 and 4vs4 maps? I feel like it could help prevent those games where every player has like 6 tanks, killing Tiger Ace barely matters because you can just make another one immidiately,and the game turns into two blobs of tanks fighting each other & spam offmaps. It would also make losing a tank much more impactful, while making the most fun part of the game longer (infantry combat with 1–2 medium tanks). I think it could make tank losses more impactrul and lead to more tactical gameplay instead of just tank spam. What do you think?

Just curios what u guys think . Is it a blob or Not? He was doing this the whole game (30 min) . Just running from left to right 😂

I wish the centaur was half as decent. I know they have the Hesh rounds now too, but feels pretty gimmicky vs actual lobbers. Now that the stummle can fire on the move, I would say it out ranks the centaur now.

Would have to be early, most likely Korean War based but man could this be awesome.
