I can't wait for it. Sadly my ladder games in multiplayer were usually rolled by high rankers posing as low ranks(smurfs). But sometimes, I turn the tide on them unexpectedly and they accuse me of smurfing.

For Stalingrad (Bound to be there). There will be heavy cover and chokes everywhere with MG....reminds me of the liberation of Caen in COH:OF...that was hell to say the least on Hard.

QUOTE(kunci_bilik @ Feb 21 2013, 12:25 PM) hi new guy, my bro's a big fan of the CoH franchise and he's thinking of buying a retail copy. just a quick question, is the local CoH community still active? dont want my bro's money go to a waste finding out there's no one to play with within the country. There's still an ok amount of automataches going on in CoH. There's not much in terms of lag commands as well if you're worried about that. Other than that, feel free to ask him to add me up. Always happy to play with and against others.

If you meant the expansions, then it's fine. I recommend getting the full bundle if your brother enjoys single player campaigns. Only get Tales of Valor if your brother plans to just play multiplayer as it unlocks all the factions available.

QUOTE(kunci_bilik @ Feb 21 2013, 04:19 PM) i google-d up some bundles and found the CoH Anthology with a pricetag of RM80. if my brother bought the retail does he need to activate the game through steam? It won't be activated through steam. Instead, it'll use the relic account. To obtain it from steam, you'll have to buy it there. Usually, there are cheap deals that give 75% off for CoH on steam.

there's only the relic servers. If your brother doesn't mind waiting for the steam sales (usually around thanksgiving and the upcoming summer sales), then I'd say go for steam. the deals usually means that once converted actually cost less than RM80. (taking into account the exchange rate of 1USD = RM3) Or if he wants to join up with the online community and start playing, then you can buy him the retail version. All he needs to do is to pretty much add the game onto his steam game list instead.

QUOTE(Cheesenium @ Jul 2 2013, 10:17 AM) I dont know why you keep comparing a 5 years+ old game with 1 expansions and countless patches to a brand new game that is just out recently. To be honest, at least CoH2 didnt come out with some incredibly stupid balance issues like how almost all previous Relic games had. That Necron Death March and IG Spam still scares me till this day. Or Stug spam in CoH1 and Brit artillery spam in OF. Brits Kangaroo Super Convertible Tanks too. On top that CoH2 did not have the severe performance issue with most PC like COH1 or DoW2. On top of that, it is a RTS game campaign, what else do you want it to change? It is always either build a force and steamroll the enemy, defend till the end of days, or those missions with a handful of units. Even SC2's fairly impressive campaign still feel more of the same at times. While till now, I have not played a RTS with an impressive story because RTS is just a horrible genre to tell a story. Im more concern with the damn commander types as DLCs than anything else. Kangaroo Carrier spam. Those were the days XD. Also, I find the DLCs and other stuff alright. CoH was by no means without annoying and funny imbalances without the patches. CoH2 would be no different. The commanders I find are pretty balanced and depends on your gameplay style, just as how CoH does the same with the command doctrines. And yes, DoW IG guardsman spam and that death march was just fun
