General speaking CoH isn't a game suitable for the mass for several reasons. Jump back to quoted post, 12:13 PM IpKaiFungĪlso doesn't help that the game runs like ass, it's quite weird that the game runs WORSE (losing at least 30fps and jerky camera movement) when all my settings are on low or off than when I have everything on medium or high. I think the next CoH game should try a new format centered on 8v8 games where each player controls only about 3-4 units or so. Stuff like that probably makes me not very challenging to place against for better players. but in some other corner of the map a squad just got wiped by a grenade or whatever because I just can't seem to pay attention to that many things at once.

into cover, and inflict some losses on the blob and force it to retreat. So maybe part of the issue is that CoH draws a lot of people like me who like the tactical features but suck at micro managing?Īn example: I see a blob coming, I put my MG in a good position to suppress it, move supporting inf. 'Micro,' however, is just not something that I do well and I don't think I'll get much better with practice (though I've been trying), and CoH differs from these other games in how much micro management and multitasking it requires (esp USF). Normally I play turn based games or real time games with tactical battles like the Total War series. Maybe the player base isn't great due to the nature of the game?ĬoH interests me because of features like flanking, suppression, etc.
