Of course it is not fair to use cheats on-line and I wouldn't think of it, but there is no way that some players are not using some form of cheat because they have way too much forces and serious tech very early in the game. If nothing else, they have boosted manpower or something. As far as playing the campaigns, I got through that without the cheats.

I hate to say it, But if your opponents have high-level units before you, that doesn't mean they're cheating. I played a few online games, and in one 3 vs 3 match (I was playing on the German side) it took only about 5 minutes for one of my teammates to get two Panthers. Fastest I've ever seen them appear.

You are right Thrawn.Those are usually players that seem to play the game professionally and enjoy doing it.They have some strategies developed that seem to work.

Yeah. And what about those people who earn a living doing NOTHING but play Starcraft? I'd give a couple of fingers to be THAT good at RTS games.

The games are skewed to people who have achieved higher ratings and rank because strategy cannot give you panthers that fast, your resources just do not accumulate that fast. They only increase if you have secured all the victory points and most of the battlefield. You get rewarded for your rank and rating, therefore it is not really a fair game. You have to constantly seek out lower ranked players to achieve a higher status. BTW, who can wait for the new Starcraft game?

I don't think CoH online has a rank-based thingy that gives any advantage to those who have more wins. I dunno, I don't play online that much. Because it's a strategy game, it simply wouldn't make any sense.

Also, Victory Point Control battles are not the only ones you can play in CoH.

I played a LAN game with a few friends and tried to do the whole light-speed tech ladder climbing. I got one Panther in about four and a half minutes and one of my teammates nabbed the second and third before the 10-minute mark. It's hard, but it can be done.

i just had the same problem as the other guy did, i first launched the trainer, then the game but after hitting f1 and the desired keys nothing happens when i start a skirmish match. i got coh off steam if that makes any diffrence.

at least you have the 2.301 trainer!

just by the way are you guys ever gonna release that for the hobos like me? (come on its been out for like 8 months now! )
