hi all, does anyone still play CoH online? i got Opposing forces the other day and am quite enjoying it!

does anyone still play online and fancy a game some time?

let me know.
 
I would but i cant get opposing forces to install. Cant verify my ******* media apparently. Piece of **** ******* **** anti piracy software
 
I still play - most nights. Love the game and can't imagine me ever getting tired of it.

Lot on technical problems recently with the online game but Relic seems to have made it a bit more stable recently. Still not perfect but it is getting there.

I am probably about medium in skill. I recon I get beaten about 60% of the time but I have the odd moment of genius.

There are some people out there who are stupidly good with this game.
 
I used to play a lot, but as I don't own the new game I find the new armies way too overpowered against the American and Wermacht.
 
If you have both the Axis armies vs both the Allied armies it can often be an enjoyable and balanced match with all the players being vital to the success and failures of each team.

For example with the British and Americans, its a cause of holding off the Axis attack whilst slowly moving up the map and at the start of the game the yanks really have to hold them off until the British can get their defensive guns up.

The Panzer Division on the other hand can steal the game in an early rush, however without backup from the Werhmacht troops they often find their army wiped out deep inside enemy territory.

It limits the scope of options for an attack plan really with the Axis basically being told to relentlessly attack the Allies but it still feels extremely fun and rewarding.

Of course, to even try this you have to assuming that Relic Online is actually working which in my experience is generally never. Damn outsourcing.
 
Heh i haven't played much since the expansion, when the next patch comes out im expecting a lot of units to get hit with the nerfstick (rangers, fg42's, the pe veterency in general) and then maybe when the americans stand a chance of actually winning i will return and will be happy to play u.

ps. the ai are engi/pio spamming n00bs
 
Love this game, the Brits are brilliant if played properly!

Only problem is lately I have been having issues loading when playing online, goes really slowly for some reason!

Still great game though. :)
