Announcements / Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game

« on: May 03, 2012, 09:57:58 PM »

i think the new title of COH 2 is "COMPANY OF HEROES - not one steps back". I have read the whole article and to me it seems like it is the best from two worlds: company of heroes and men of war.

key features from the article:
Set in the beginning of 1941, the players role will take him from the defense of stalingrad to the victory at berlin.
Graphics look amazing the soldiers look just as good as they do in other ww2 firstperson shooters.
Realistic snow, tank treads make realistic marks, also tanks can get bogged down in snow drifts.
Snow melts Eg: a soldier with a flamethrower burns a farmhouse the snow on the roof melts and makes the roof fallin.
You can vault over fences.
New Feature called "True Sight" You can only see what your units see.
More advanced covering system.

OH MY FUCKING GOD 

Good news every one. 
THQ are started making a COH 2, and guess what - it's with soviet.

Only one bad news which is that it first comes in 2013. but then we can just play some more eastern front while we wait.

Helo
It's nice to see that something is happening It all looks great and it's especially great to see that ostheer get their own base buildings. Maybe a little too much concrete, but if there was laid a few banners and some tin roofs on some places then it would be mega super cool. and perhaps a search light on top of t1 or something like that.

How do they upgrade different units? And how doo they secure sectorer? And which units can be bought from FHQ? And and and and?
 
how long does it take approximately before ostheer comes, weeks, months?
COMEON TELL ME SOMETHING

Suggestions / rush mode

« on: March 22, 2012, 11:15:13 PM »

Hey guys
I've got a brilliant idea for a new game mode. Rush mode.

The Objective of the game is for the attacking team to destroy the defending team's objectives.

Objectives could be bunkers, flak towers, buildings, factories, secret weapons, heavy artillery and much more.

The attacking team will start with a high number of resources, but will not get more until their objectives are destroyed.

The defending team will start with a low number of recourses, but will instead have a completely normal resource income.

Both teams will have the same PopCap.

The defending team will win, when the attacking team runs out of recourses and have no units left.

The attacking team will win when all objectives is destroyed.

The defending team's base has a pair of objectives to protect, and when both objectives have been destroyed, the map is expanded, making room for a new base with a new set of objectives to protect, where the defenders have to fall back. This process is repeated until the last defending base is lost. A number of 6-10 objectives per map would be nice.

The idea is taken from the battlefield games with a game mode called Rush, just fitted into COH style of play.

Ostheer Suggestions / Re: Unit suggestion thread:

« on: March 15, 2012, 04:26:30 PM »

hey here is a different idea for ostheers reward unit. what about Helicopters Germans used 2 kinds helikoptorer during the war.

Flettner Fl 282 Kolibri: a useful artillery spotting helicopter and an observation unit.

Focke Achgelis Fa 223: multiple purposes helicopter
you could use it to transport infantry and light equipment such as Kübelwagen, Flak 38, Pack 36 and Pack 40.

UPGRADES:
1: This helicopter could throw bombs or shoot with its machine gun. 2*250 kg bombs and 1*MG15

2: you could also make it so that you could use it as a mobile medical station.

Here are some of the same news just from a different source

I can not wait for the trailer to comes out. hope it will be a rts game like the other Company of Heroes games.
My greatest wish is the Eastern front. but a war like the cold war could also be interesting because it never broke out.
The Pacific Theatres could also be great, with huge maps,  aircraft carriers and water as part of the battlefield together with land- and air-combat.

but really I'm just so happy because it sure will be a great hit.

« on: January 23, 2012, 11:16:51 PM »

As I understand it sounds like a really great idea, because it is not always possible to find a suitable mulitplayer match in ef. and such suggestions will make the computer more fun to play against. but totally agree with stealthattack1 that multiplayer games are more fun.
there are other things I would rather see finished than this ostheer and next patch for example. otherwise a cool idea.

Mapping / Re: [EF] Berlin 1945 (8)

« on: January 19, 2012, 05:26:17 PM »

come on it is a nice map, maybe one of the most beautiful maps.
i can not wait for the next patch to comes out so I can play this incredible map.
unfortunately I can not figure out how to download and install maps , but I can wait.
Does anyone have an idea when the next patch comes, it must be soon but how soon months, weeks, days, does anyone know or have any idea?

Nice Review
There is only 2 problems with your review.

First turn off the fog of war. And let the one commentator follow the other player.

Second then there are problems with the sound. I run with 5.1 surround and I do not know if it has anything to do with the problem, but I do not think it has.
The problem is that every time one of you says something then the music and sound effects goes up and down. It is a little annoying.
Another thing with the sound is that the sound from the game maybe is a little too high, especially the Music.
otherwise the rest is good stuff.

maybe if you ask nicely, then KrebsCOHO on youtube could maybe do a little advertising for ef. He has many viewers on his youtube channel. between 1500 and 4000 viewers per video I think.

For some reason I think that you sound negative about my proposal.
A Sherman jumbo will be able to fill out functions witch an ordinary a Sherman cannot do. A Sherman jumbo shoots high explosive rounds, and can withstand more punishment than most other allied tanks.
and also the Americans have already plenty of good anti-tank weapons such as M10, M18, M26, M4 Sherman, 57mm anti-tank gun, rangers and airborne. Perhaps many of them are glass cannons. But they still have airborne which slaughters tanks.

i finde My suggestion a better suggestion on what a Sherman jumbo can replace. I totally agree with Fishhunterx Cause quite honestly who in their right mind would replace a Calliope for a Jumbo?

Na vCoH reward units aren't going to be replaced (unfortunately)

So is the Jumbo replacing the M10 still up for discussion? Cause quite honestly who in their right mind would replace a Calliope for a Jumbo? Well Calliope is better vs Infantry and Jumbo is better vs Tanks. Thats why it'd probably be appropriate to switch it out.

nice one about the Calliope for the Jumbo, Fishhunterx

what about replacing the M1A1C 76mm Gun upgrade or the Defensive Smoke Screen upgrade with a M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo upgrade.
