COH thread since the last one died. How bad is Relic gonna fuck up this re-release. I expect the elitists to complain about adding the reverse command and how it somehow fucks up pathing. As well as auto reinforce dumbing the game down. Harder AI might make the campaign more fun.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnVoeTSC4rU
>>2424024>10 fps in cutscenes>that UI
Who asked for this? The original works just fine on a potato, and CoH2 is more popular anyway.
>>2424122popular doesnt mean better
>>2424114That would be 45$ plus tip
>>2415102
>>2424122looks ugly
>>2424024>WAAAH EVERYTHING IS GOING TO SUCK EVERYTHING SUCKS WAAAHJust kill yourself already and spare us your whining.
>>2424024It was only a matter of time after Dawn of War's Definitive Edition release so hooray I guess?I do appreciate the addition of vehicle reversing and auto-reinforcing though. Kinda wish they'd added TrueSight and vaulting obstacles as well since having your infantry unable to clear a measly fence and have to walk all the way around was always incredibly annoying and having the environment play a key role in how much you could see was a pretty nice way of making tactics matter.
I love CoH but I don't see the point in a remaster that adds no content
>>2424300It's going to be less annoying to play and multiplayer will be alive again for a while. And hopefully they'll actually ban cheaters.
Kinda wanna see the "coh1 was the best at everything" crowd tackle a Brit simcity
how does the US play in coh1? i played coh2 and love their style in it, and didnt like how coh3 US plays and i hear coh1 US is close to coh3.
>>2424311>Invincible tanks that keep receiving critical damage instead of dying
>>2424312CoH1 US is basically CoH3 US but with less options
>>2424024What do you mean they are adding auto reinforce? Do CoH3 fags not have to reinforce their models or something? Reverse is better but auto reinforce is stupid.
>>2424356Auto-reinforce means that when your squad is in the vicinity of a reinforcement point it reinforces them without the player having to manually click the reinforce button however many times you need to bring said squad back to full strength. You can disable this in COH3 and go back to manually reinforcing if you wish but it's nice to have the option regardless.
>>2424300Replaying the Bong campaign with no bugs is still balls to the wall.The OG campaign is also kino.
Relic is desperate. They were just selling CoH1 on sale with all their games. I'm sure they will delist that soon as this drops. CoH1 runs fine. People still are playing games too. I was watching the trailer and it doesn't look much better. The same choppy cutscenes. The campaign gets boring, you will want to play skirmish right away or get into multiplayer.
>>2424024>As well as auto reinforce dumbing the game downDumbing down how? Sounds like a nice feature, actually.
>I can't believe they casualties the game through auto reinforce!>*Plays skirmish and campaign only*
>>2424392huh?
>>2424372It's the same deal as DOW's Definitive Edition, visuals look slightly more polished but more important is whether they are gonna fix bugs in the original game like the one in the base game with V1 rocket strikes where even destroying the radio tower wouldn't stop the AI from calling it in on your ass. Or how absurdly OP Panzer Grenadiers were to the extent that you could wipe out entire armies with a big blob of PGs.
>>2424024I wonder how Relic is gonna fuck up the balance this time. With DOW I remember them massively nerfing Space Marines early on and making the Imperial Guard ridiculously overpowered (plus nerfing Necrons which is still the case) to address complaints with the original so I fully expect them to nerf the fuck outta Panzer Elite and the British here while giving Wehrmacht and the Americans absolutely ridiculous buffs.
>>2424465CoH1 does not need game balance rot from CoH3. You Starcraft fags need to stop "balancing" every game. Learn to play and stop being bad. Accept the fact that some factions are less than others in games.
>>2424702>wehrmacht and americans>stug spam and ranger blobsno, no please, i don't want to go back
>>2424702>>2424777Yeah chud! It's already perfectly balanced that axis tanks and MGs are superior in every way! It's also balanced they can buy veterancy while you have to earn it!
>>2424791life isn't fair, I know your mom never taught you this important lesson.. but it's the truth. The best games in history are not balanced. Coh3 is shit and nobody wants to play it because it's this e-sports turd.
>>2424793I accept your concession.
>>2424803No concession you jus tare a retard who sucks at RTS games. Go back to play CoH3 with your auto reinforce... fucking noob
>>2424122If it was free for existing owners, it makes sense as a way to revitalize the multiplayer. If they keep the same level of mod tools but update them for modern software workflows, I would actually pay full price.
>>2424312Yeah, US in 3 is deliberately similar to US in 1, to wash the taste of 2's US out of player's mouths.
>>2424803Stop talking to the Argentinian/Vietnamese/Russian, they have a busy schedule of leaving bitter comments on CoH3 replays.
It's weird seeing a franchise like CoH go from kino singleplayer campaigns and skirmishes to full blown MPniggery sweatlords taking over the franchise.
>>2424791Correct.
>>2424825Oh, my bad. We really need national flag tags on all boards to prevent wasting time.
>>2424311>Stukas and Gren spam>Hummels and PanthersGoneBest thing about this is that it will revitalize the modding scene, Eastern Front and Blitzkrieg were always limited by RAM issues.
>>2424122This is because CoH3 is a wet fart, they got bought and then rebought themselves and they lost DoW a long time ago. The studio probably needs a cash injection if they want to live much longer.Still say they should put CoH3 into end of life care and shift CoH to the Cold War before people fully burn out on Eugen games.
>>2425053>Still say they should put CoH3 into end of life careThey're clearly making more than enough money considering that they're churning out DLCs
>>2424839Skirmishes are only kino when you're a child and AI still gives you trouble
>>2425111commanders aren't really what we consider DLC these days.
>>2425142>Nu uh it doesn't countOkay then
>>2424024is the choppy cutscene hard coded in the backend? why does it couldnt be fixed?
>>2425195Their PR guy said that they are still working on graphical improvements so maybe they just haven’t gotten to fixing cutscene framerate yet.
>relic Karen here
>>2424024will this work with existing mods?i just want to play bk skirmish vs ai, suck it pvpfags
>>2425547No because Relic doesn't want competition. They want to sell DLC and resell the game
>>2425547Already said it will. Ignore the other anon, he is a mentally ill tranny whose whore of a mom should have spat him out onto the floor of the barn he was conceived in.
>>2425681You are a faggot and liar. Coh3 doesn't even have mod support. Keep shilling for a garbage ass company. You will be out of the job and replaced by AI soon enough.
>>2425683
>>2425707>shartyshitFitting for a CoH2 faggot that got into the franchise with Youtube meme compilations
>>2425726lol u mad bro?
>>2425821CoH3 won
>>2425830the shittiest coh game award, yes.
Do you think they remaster 2 as well?
>>2425861doubt, vanilla coh2 was vastly different game than current coh2. plus coh2 held up decently enough, i dont think theres any need to remaster the game
>>2425861DoW 2 hell yea I hope so
>>2425683>>2425707>Stupid faggot posting dumb bullshit and then samefag cheerleading for himselfI bet everyone you know absolutely loathes you
>>2425861Why? It sucks shit
I really am not sure who is in charge at relic, someone who just enjoys burning money I guess because it took me all of 40 seconds to go on google and open 3 tabs, each one showing the player count of all three games. Instantly you can see that out of the three installments that COH 2 just blows the other 2 out of the water in the "All Time Peak" category. Even to this day, COH 2 still has a similar active player count to the *New* COH 3.COH 2 takes everything good about COH 1 and improves or builds on it. The game just feels like whoever made it took their time and made sure to pour their heart into the project. The sounds of destruction and artillery barrages sounds realistic and terrifying.Then we arrive at COH 3 which takes everything from COH 1 and COH 2 and just throws it in the garbage. We went from playing a RTS WW II simulator to playing a WW II arcade game....The voice actors and their writing is bland and repetitive, all the sounds ranging from machine guns to tanks sound fake and almost cartoonish. The Infantry units are like storm troopers with how they aim, its like watching paint dry with how long it takes for stuff to die.I guess my point is or concern, is that they will just take what they did with COH 3 and apply it to this remake of COH 1. Although there is some hope, being that the game is only meant for PC and not cross-platform...THANK GOD! And that I don't understand what the developers have against COH 2!
>>2424465Balance-niggers get the rope. Nobody likes them.They hate each other too, because every balance-nigger has their own retarded take on what is considered "balanced". Worse aspect of gayming by a long shot.
>>2426182>muh all time peakYou checked player stats hoping to see coh2 on top but when you say coh3 having twice the monthly average players you had to pick some irrelevant metric as "proof" of CoH2 being the "better" game, didn't you?
>>2426228Embarrassing that Company of Heroes 3 is so low in players by comparison. You make your own argument look stupid.
>>2426230You can’t read can you?
>>2426230cope
>>2426182>COH 2 takes everything good about COH 1 and improves or builds on it.You've never played CoH1
>>2426182except this isnt a remake lol its a remaster at best a re-release at worst.
>>2426242seethe
>>2426359I remember when CoH2 launched and it was the pariah game because it was objectively shit. Now it's good but CoH1 hardliners will never admit it. Same thing with CoH3. Shit at launch, really good now minus, like, monetisation and balance depending on who you ask, but those stuck on CoH1 and CoH2 will never admit that.All 3 CoHs are basically the same in the grand scheme of RTS games, I wish more people saw that instead of endlessly campaigning for the supremacy of whichever game they played first.
>>2426520They are not the same though. CoH1 and 2 are similar while 3 is an outlier and no longer as much of a tactical RTS
>>2426530You keep repeating that, it doesn't make it true.
>>2426242>>2426474the average 4chan post
>>2424376That said I'm still baffled at how in 2026 coh3 autoreinforce is still buggy and ahitWe had auto reinforce that doesnt queue up a huge manpower drain in dawn of war (right-click) and in coh3 it just mass spams orders to kill all your immediate MPOR it straight up doesn't workWhat's up with that
>>2426520>Shit at launch, really good nowIt isn't. It has the potential to if Relic commits to fixing its multitude of problems with bugs, optimization, audio, VFX and even basic stuff like snipers not targeting gunners for some bizarre reason thus making them completely useless in breaking suppression traps but it's not right now.And the reason that COH2 and COH3 end up being shat on is because Relic seems incapable to retaining the good things they did in previous games and transferring them to the new ones. So you end up with them introducing some nice new features but completely removing or messing up ones that were there previously.
>>2425867>Rebindable keys>Better tank pathing>modern QoL controls that coh3 has>Less blurry graphics>Reintroduce a complete game without the retardedly bad unlocks and maybe trim half the redundant commanders>New stories>Better coop scenarios that aren't literally "base multiplayer but with less/shittier options"They could and can do a tonThey could do alot
>>2426230RTS having big numbers in 2026 will always be an anomaly
>>2426520>All 3 CoHs are basically the sameYou're a tard
>>2426703Yeah I feel like the amount of maps that can easily just devolve into locking down people with an lmg is awfulAnd mortars are really awful at dislodging machine guns
>>2424024Won't buy this but will probably torrent it when it's out. Already downloaded the latest version of the Dawn of War remaster which is pretty fun so looking forward to adding this one as well. Haven't played the originals since moving out of my parents' home as a teenager so it brought back some memories. Admittedly I don't recall Necrons sucking quite so hard in the original DOW as they do in the Definitive Edition.
>>2426723Thanks for letting us know.
