Same.

Subscriber only. Mumble.

 

[Ennui]

Oh, I want.

If this thread gets big, I'm going to merge it into the COH mega-thread.

 

[BigBoss7556]

There's going to be a public beta sometime I believe for this. I'll wait for that.

 

[Thunderclap]

I'm really looking forward to the British. The Americans and Germans both had ridiculous accents and mannerisms. I'm hoping the Brits are equally cliched, and I have my fingers crossed for a Scotch unit (I know we're already getting Canadians).

let's hope you're right!
i'm really excited about this game! COH is awesome.

 

[Mutley]

Can't wait for this, still playing CoH online, just had a 4v4 match and loved it.

I look forward to the new physics and changing dynamic weather!

People who are part of the closed beta can't say anyhting about the beta because they have to sign an NDA(Non-Disclosure Agreement).

People who are part of the closed beta can't say anyhting about the beta because they have to sign an NDA(Non-Disclosure Agreement).

which is the dev's way of saying "incase we somehow horribly wreck this series, and this expansion sucks, at least ppl will still buy it cause no one knows. . ."

 

[Shakermaker]

What I can say is that I can't get it installed. I get an access denied message just before the installing process starts. :|

 

[DigiQ8]

i had this problem, but i fixed it now and installed the game

Right click on your desktop and create a new shortcut

for the location of the shortcut type in cmd.exe

name it whatever you want it doesn’t matter

right click on that new shortcut and choose “run as administrator”

in the command prompt navigate to the directory you have the installer in…….if you have it on the desktop you would get there by typing in:

cd\Users\[your windows username here]\Desktop

then type in the name of the installer:
COH_OF_Beta_Setup.exe

and press enter…….bingo,done.

now im downloading 300MB patch....


EDIT : Shaker add me to Steam ( digiman )

 

[Shakermaker]

I will try this as soon as I get home.

Aren't you on Xfire anymore, Digi? I tried to find you online yesterday, but you weren't there.

 

[DigiQ8]

just installed it, tho i prefer SC

 

[Evo]

Will try to install it tomorow morning....Digi...we will fight

 

[DigiQ8]

i shall kick your ass

 

[Thunderclap]

So just tell us, is it shit, or the shit. 180-degree difference.

 

[Shakermaker]

I will try this as soon as I get home.

That did the trick. Downloading the patches momentarily. And you are my *first* friend on my Steam list (never used it before).

 

[Iced_Eagle]

Cant' wait for an actual public beta, and none of this subscriber-only nonsense.

 

[Shakermaker]

I sense anger in this young padawan.

 

[He11raiser]

eh, same game different units.

 

[ríomhaire]

eh, same game different units.

I never would have guessed. :dozey:

 

[Shift]

Ill get it, but im sticking to victory point maps only. I just played a normal defeat other opponent type after ages and realised why i went to victory points. Had no means of attacking at all and just flooded his back line with anti-infantry APCs and AT guns, could do nothing, so i just left because i hate stalemates.

500 victory points ftw though, encourages fighting right for the kick off and gives you the key battle areas. Man I have had some amazing fights with them.

Brits ftw!

 

[BigBoss7556]

Digi and Evo is he11raiser right or wrong? Since I'm not a subscriber I can't really say much about what he said.

I doubt it will just feel like the same game with new units. Even if it does, it doesn't mean it will be bad since COH had already great gameplay.

 

[0mar]

eh, same game different units.

that's like saying "sex, same thing, just different positions."

 

[Evo]

i shall kick your ass

Damn right you will

 

[Shakermaker]

Too bad I am having the exact same connection problems I had while playing the beta last year. I haven't been able to connect to a game yet. You would have thought that Relic fixed their netcode by now ....

 

[Evo]

Damn...so much to download for this

 

[Shakermaker]

Having the same problems, Evo?

 

[Evo]

No just downloading the Client and the patches...taking its time =/
