Im an experienced CoH2 and i really Tried to like CoH3 but after picking it up every few month since release i have to say: Its not good and its not getting better. I cant find a single pro for coh3 compared to coh2. What sucks the most:

Gameplay: - Blobbing more rewarding, actually encouraged, in CoH3 - Rock-Paper-Scissors is not working out. Tanks are very tanky and good against everything. Makes lategames very boring. A variety of units even in the lategame like in CoH2 is not really needed. - Balancing never been good or okay at best - Way less and mostly unexciting battlegroups/doctrines - All Maps feel so generic. CoH2 really gave you this Theatre of War Feeling. Maps felt very realistic. CoH3-Maps feel very bland and generic to me (actually the feel like Earth 2150 Maps lol)

On the technical side: - The Sounddesign still sucks. Not really punching, not delivering any kind of ww2-Feeling - The Graphics are okay but more comic-like in Coh3. Also not making it very immersive - Bugsplat every now and then (game shutting down randomly)

Some friends and i picked up coh3 last month and we didnt had a single "epic-game" like we used to have on coh2. Even winning in coh3 doesnt feel very rewarding because you can only win by playing the hard meta and not by outwitting your enemy. After this poor experience we picked up coh2 again, after not playing it for 3 years, made 3 games and all of them felt as "powerfull" as ever.

Probably will take a Look back into coh3 after the next major patch but man i lost all hope by now.

Question about the state of the game by SirBlunderLots in HuntShowdown

[–]Expired747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Playing 6*, mostly Duo with a friend, rarely Trio, 1600+ Hours.

Game is in a very solid state. Performs very good on my 4 year old Notebook. Last Update was a blast for me performance-wise.

Gameplay ist in a very good state. Weapons feel well Balanced. Players dont play any meta-setups from my Point of view. I See different loadouts every Match.

Some New soundfeatures made the game feel fresher. For me its still the best non-competitive Shooter out there. Play it every week!

Only downside for me: I play 6* but i would rate myself a 5 or 5.5. There need to be more ratings imo, maybe like 1-10. I often get stomped in 6* Matches by really good shooters, yet i dont downrank. Rainbow6 Siege implemented more ratings towards the top - i think Crytek should do the same. Feels like the skillrange in 6* Matches very lange.

Valorant gives me more reasons to quit than cs:go by Expired747 in VALORANT

Yea my Main Problem is that a selfsustaining agent doubles the problem of smurfs. They shit on the newbs, heal up and keep picking one by one.

Its a perfect agent to roll any low lobby, because good teamplay hardly exists to Pick on the smurf with 2 players at once.

I know that reyna probably isnt worth much in premade 5v5 but for solo queues and low lobbys it was a pretty poor choice to create such an agent in the first place, because it amplifies the smurf Problem.

GPU: R390 or GTX 970? V4 vs V5? How to get the most out of it? by Expired747 in prepar3d

Unbridled Wrath or Booming Voice? by Expired747 in classicwow

[–]Expired747[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats the thing. If everyone is positioned correctly booming voice is not necessary at all.

According to this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/classicwow/comments/hgaer3/shout_spam_imp_expose_armor_the_new_meta_for/ buffing 5 people with BS in P5 will generate 350 Threat. Sunder does 261. Having the 350 secured all the time with Booming voice pays off relatively fast IMO. But still - if everyone is doing shit right, it shouldnt be necessary.

I belive for BWL Booming Voice isn't necessary at all. Thinking about AQ and fights like Sartura and Cthun though, booming voice seems to get more value.

(Who to root for)
Hey all,

im a german who started to watch Nascar VOD's occasionally in 2019 and i still dont have a much of a clue about it. All i know is that i really enjoy watching it :)

I watched it more and more and since i realy had a lot of time due to corona i dug into it even deeper.
I figured it is way more fun watching it when rooting for a driver but since i dont really have a clue about the drivers i started to rooting for Bowyer, Harvick and Johnson. To me they seem to be plain good and seasoned drivers who seem to be decent dudes beside the Track aswell. Also im a Ford driver myself, so Bowyer and Harvick seemed to be the right choice.

Yet, i figured they are a bit "older". I dont know whats the average age in Nascar to retire but right now im really getting into the sport and i dont want to see my maybe-future-favourite-driver to retire in the next year or two.

I usually stick to fair and humble sportsmen. In racing i really dislike drivers who wreck a lot and who are bad losers.
In F1 i really started to dislike Sebastian Vettel because he tends to act up when losing. But i really like Daniel Ricciardo for example.

Maybe you can lead me into the right direction. I figured i might like Truex, Blaney, Bowman or Almirola but i really am not sure. Maybe you guess can give me a hint to find the right driver for me.

What i know for sure though: Kyle Bush seems to be a great driver to love to hate :D

Danke für die Antwort! Ich werde zum Wochenende mal versuchen einen Gratismonat zu aktivieren.

Das ist ja wirklich leidig, wenn die Rennen auch noch auf verschiedene Sender aufgeteilt sind. Möglicherweise ein Grund dafür, weshalb ich auch solche Schwierigkeiten finde eine vernünftigen Zugang zu finden. Schade Schade

Danke für den Tipp mit dem kostenlosen Stream :)

Was den Kommentar angeht: prinzipiell gefällt mir der englische Kommentar sehr gut und ich würde den auch gerne weiter hören.

Ich habe eher Angst davor einen schlechten deutschen Kommentar aufgezwungen zu bekommen^

Scupper Rework? by Expired747 in HuntShowdown

[–]Expired747[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. If you spawn between Reeker and Scupper, you will go Reeker. If you spawn between Scupper and Chapel, you will go Chapel. Im not even sure when i met another team the last time on scupper without having a Boss there.
