whats the future for coh

[Brody123]

I love playing coh2. Going back here and there and playing coh isn't that bad either. The people that kicked out coh3 have to be sitting around thinking about how they can we get the pc version of coh3 some players, because its absolutely a dead game atm. It took me almost 10 minutes of waiting to get a 1v1 game. Was coh3 the game that was suppose to keep the coh and coh2 servers going or do you think they are independent on one another ? I just wonder to myself if the coh franchise isn't going to come to a head, resulting in relic or whoever is in charge of this game taking down the servers sooner that later. I know its only inevitable that the servers eventually go .... it cant last forever

They'll do a free weekend or two along with a discount for the base game before they abandon it completely as that strategy helped out COH2 a lot.

LOL, the servers are still up for all 3 games you may wanna not worry about that one. Seriously though the answer is simple, COH3 is the future and COH1 and COH2 are great games but they are old and not supported and stuff doesn't even work in them anymore. COH3 is the future plain and simple. Next months patch should bring some more people over to play it, they are giving us alot of what we wanted in the next patch. I love 3 just need more maps and good progression system.

CoH3 doesn't deserve all the hate it gets. There's a future for this game and I've already seen significant improvement since launch. I'm in this community for the longhaul and I believe CoH3 is going to be amazing after continued support.

Case in point, I've played newer releases since CoH3 and my tiny channel still gets most of its views from CoH content. That shows a dedicated community of people out there that'll keep the series alive.

CoH3 is really growing on me. I could explain why, but I don't feel typing an essay rn.

i doubt relic will make another company heroes game.

[JacEEEBABY]

RIP the company of heroes franchise. Game might be worth it 75% off.

All three games + DoW2 and DoW3 use Re-link back-end: Relic's own technology and network.

The issue is kind of clear: if Relic plugs off servers, it will be a feat to replace all-unique system in these titles. An impossible one in DoW3 and CoH3 since they use Denuvo. And I'm not too sure if CoH2 community has enough resourses to shoulder hackjob for CoH2 either. But CoH1 modding scene should be able to handle a back-end replacement (maybe, even on Valve's Sockets or other open-sourse solutions). Which would probably transfer to DoW2 as well (despite not deserving it, at all).

Again, I doubt Sega will go for such extent. They will just shorten Re-link's infrastructure if ♥♥♥♥'ll hit the fan (to begin with, they would have to remove "Multiplayer" tag from all the titles across Steam otherwise which means sa-a-a-ales). That's if ♥♥♥♥ hits, of course. Because nothing stops Relic from making their next title successfull one.

The future of CoH3: in a word, bleak.

[Fatbill]

927 concurrent Steam players atm.

No future. Coh3 was butchered to the ground. There is no quality in this game. Welcome to the mobile gameplay and console playground.

Shame for coh fans;
Shame for coh pc community;
Bunch of noobs which relic has become.

Feel the pain.

Well we have at least one expansion due for all those that pre-ordered that edition.
You also have to bear in mind that COH2 was not popular either when it first launched.
If Relic can go the distance this game will hopefully like coh2 become a refined game with more expansions and a good following.

Additionally when it does go on sale might be the time that those who did not want to pay the massive launch price come onboard.

I personally think that COH3 might be the best coh game yet if the kinks are worked out. It's got a lot of mechanics I really like. Tank riders, MGs that have staged suppression rather than being deal breakers for any assault, breach mechanics, longer ranges and better zoom out than coh2, I don't mind that we now have soldier skins for the first time, I like that the time to kill squads in cover is fairly long and MGs do not suppress squads in cover easily. Machine guns are still very effective, just not dominating the entire game and letting units move around more easily than before.

I don't like the new sounds however as they seem much more generic now that they have bassified them all.

The only problem really is refining the game and fixing all the really basic stuff that was inexplicably left broken or unfinished like unit or skill icons being duplicates which is confusing. Incorrect unit icons for some things like when you build a tank and instead of that tanks icon you get a generic icon of another tank model that is probably supposed to be the symbol for all medium tanks... the retreat button for tanks and infantry is the same by default but does not allow all of them to retreat if they are grouped, things like that. Things that the previous COH dev teams probably could have shared their experience and lessons learned from previous titles if their are any on the coh3 team?

So far though the last patch was really underwhelming, 1 new map and a few text file changes. The next big patch will contain a lot more noticeable content I suspect.

In the mean time coh3 is still a good fun solid game in it's current state imho.

"bUT CoH3 iS fUTURe" good luck with less than 2000 playerbase

[gandamula]

I still playing coh2 in a dayly basis, Unfortunately Reliq has been listening to the widows of the original Coh and nothing in COH3 reminds me of the mechanics of coh2, which I still think is the best, I really don't like almost nothing in COH3, I forced myself to play the COH3 demo for one hour and I couldn't and I have 5000 hours in COH2 . That's why I don't change.
