COH: Europe In Ruins

Now I'm not sure how the devs planned on using the conjunction of these, but I had an idea as to how to use them.

Players are given reward points for winning certain battles, or certain objectives are completed.

rewards are divided into tiers, you don't have to buy them, but you have to be a certain level to use certain reward units. When you are readying up, you pick which reward you want to use. +10XP that you will gain at the end of the battle, +20PP, or say, slugger, or jagdtiger. You can also add in off maps possibly.

Those units come fully upgraded. Once you are ingame you can call the unit in. Kind of like calling a Tiger or something in in vcoh. Since these reward units dont cost anything, they will have upped pop cap to balance.

These units wouldnt gain vet. They are there just for that one game.

This would allow reward units to be balanced knowing that you probably wont see them too often, and you dont have to worry about balancing them via a cost. Units like anzacs would come on in pairs, light vehicles or tanks would come on one at a time, but you get two call ins with a balanced cool down. and bigger units you'd get just one call in. And of course units would have RP costs tied to them. Smart players would also want to save their RPs only for important battles or towards the end of the war.

Remove reward units. Its getting ridiculous.

its pretty good besides the sad fact anzacs suck ass juices and you have to summon in 4s to do damage.

Every Army (except mine) is full of weird stuff. Take this out till warmap is in.
Yeah i know testing..............   

In my opinion the field presence of the reward unit is a bit to high. In the last ten matches i faced so many axis tanks that i don't know how
to deal with this ammount. ???

@chefarzt:
De weirdest unit is the nuclear-cannon "Sturmgeschütz". Awesome one-shot-trollol-squad-gone-cannon. :'(

last game i faced 2 tiger aces 6 stormies 2 p4s a stuh and a 88 wwith hummel and.

I WAS LIKE DAFUQ?

The "Wipe" (which is a little delayed because we decided to implement some stuff with it), will of course eliminate all the reward units from everyone's company.

Reward points WILL NOT just be handed out for free anymore. They will be earned through the Warmap or other special circumstances determined by the SDT.

We are also rescaling the ratio of reward points / Reward units. In other words, you will not see mass reward units anymore.

Be patient. The end of reward unit spam is near........

so next year?

Deliver?

?noos

To be honest the amount of reward units that have been used in the past week has been a pleasant amount

You could be right TBH. Most people have used up their RP and lost most of their RW units.

I still have 17(+20)...not counting +50 that I lost  ::)
so no reward unit spam from me ;)
which we all know that wont be soon :p

Sounds great.  :)

please let us know when wipe is truly near so I can just use up all my reward points or i can level up something i've been grinding on, no fun just to pop it in on us one day.

As posted a week ago:

The wipe can come any day now. That means this is your notice. Could be today, could be two weeks from now.

Why the delay you ask?

We decided to implement the anti smurfing changes with this wipe. Eirrmod said he would get it done very quickly. It appeared to be a simple coding thing and off to the races we go.
Once he got in and working on it, he discovered that it was going to be more involved then he thought. I am sure many of you think that he should just know everything and should have known how long it would take, but unfortunately he is just a human like the rest of us.
So the coding work is taking longer than we thought. His goal is to complete it this weekend, but if real life issues tie him up, to fucking bad....... it's a game.

The wipe is imminent!!! It will happen in the near future and not the "Warmap" type future we have all grown to know.....lol

With that in mind, if you are hording your little bundle of reward points for a rainy day, then I suggest using them now. It's starting to rain.

Seriously guys, this is a game. Playing it is supposed to be the fun part. So get out there and play the damn thing. You know a wipe is imminent so stop holding onto your little hordes of vet, pp, rp or whatever else ya got and just play to win!!!

:feels motivated" Raaaaaawr yeaaaaaa.

i'm going to kill off all my vet's.

orlly? when is the coding ever near exact. whats wrong with justs wiping it and then implementing it? other then the two updates.

Whats wrong with implementing it with the wipe...... You say tomato, I say tamato.......lol

Well i mean thats why quite a few people dont play like myself for one. Whats the point in waisting time if its just going to get erased?. might as well wait untill after then play. i havent played in like 4 days.

Ya, really whats the point of playing a game for the entertainment value....... I mean really, that would be completely pointless now wouldn't it.....LOL

I would say this might be a valid point, if it wasn't for the fact that COD, Battlefield and RPGS all have a "vanity" feature or a newgame + that allows you to pretty much wipe your account and start fresh with limited or no carry over (in COD's case a star each time you do)

Due to the amount of players i see with this star, im pretty sure wipes aren't that much of an issue

That would require the gameplay to be interesting and entertaining on it's own. Sadly the interesting parts are in the launcher.

EIRR desperately needs new game modes.

I would love to see this ultimate wipe. The most guys forget that they got the Reward Points for free and now a lot of complaining about it.
I can't see the Wespe, TigerAces and other crazy stuff on the battle field which crashes the game balance when it comes in mass.
The only reward unit im using is the M20 Recon Vehicle and the Marines, but there have no special game changing role as a Wespe or a
Tiger Ace, also i can resign from this two units.

Also i have no special vet in my company and so i'm happy to see the coming wipe.  :P
Even though coming Smurfing preventation sound quite interesting.



I don't often see a R+ game. Yesterday i tried one out and it was a total massaker for my team.  :D

do all germans go to the same troll school?

marines are freaking awesome.

COD RPGS batlefield are progressive its part of the attraction why do you think not many play OMG?. im sure they would get a few more players if they had doctrines. I do not mind the wipe at all infact, i just mind it dragging on because Well just because.

Thats how i see it at least, i played COD as soon as i became prestige 10 i dropped the game, same with skyrim.

Would it make you feel better if you got a little star next to your name when wipe happens?

Fuck that i want a star for every year ive been here.

We currently have 4 game modes and three of them essentially never get used. (all modes have been working for two patches) I think spending a lot of time creating a new mode would be greatly disappointing.

It would get used like crazy for about a month, then tossed to the curb like the rest of them. IMO

there are other gamemodes? wtf?

yer spending time on a new game mode is a waste of time as opposed to months on months of warmap :P

Those game modes are essentially the same thing after the first few minutes.

I mean a completely different game mode, King of the Hill, Control Points, Assassination, Capture the Flag (Documents) etc.

if you have allies or axis attack,rarely anyone will join.
R+ I like quite much,dunno why it's rarely played.

I want to spend a large amount of time investigating other gamemodes, time I might have soon.

Also.  I think we have successfully de-railed the thread.....

I just keep thinking v-1

Yeah, it's super special compared with the other axis reward unit and totally game breaking stuff.



Because you can't deal with my opinion you come to the clousion that all germans go to a troll school.
Sounds legit.  ::)

he is Norway the home of the trolls probably his ancestors are from the trollheimen
so either you ignore him or you troll him back

but @reward units i would love to see if the allies would get some russian tanks (su-152, KV1, IS2) as heavies (could be taken from eastern front mod)

Or RCA, or any number of other things. Sometimes you take losses to win, the enemy should be pushing it just as hard, especially if you make it so the points tick up quickly if held. Let them sit there for 5 minutes and they win.

I wasn't criticizing to be honest. It would add a whole slew of strategies. Taking out opponents arty, baiting them to waste offmaps, flanking to cut off reinforcements if you can't immediatly push them out
