Ladies and Gentlemen, we aaaaaare liiiiiive!!

CoH: Modern Combat is finally available to the public!

But first of all, let us appologize. The overwhelming interest in our mod and consequently the refreshing of our website moderncombat.blacksandstudio.com while we were still working on the release lead our server host to the impression that he was the target of a DOS attack! We hope to get in contact with them soon to get our service back up.

We are extremely impressed about the community support of our Mod! 20000 downloads in less than two days is more than we could have hoped for!

Once our website is back up we hope for ongoing support by all of you! Help us to fix bugs, improve balance and contribute by posting replays and discussing strategies! We will start working again as soon as our server is accessible again and hope for a good future!

To the people who still have problems to get the mod to run:

  • The Fatal SCAR error at startup which a few people are reporting can be tracked down to permission issues in 99% of the cases. Please make sure to read our installation guide carefully. We'll fix the remaining issue with the next patch.
  • The xml error messages which all of you will receive when using our launcher can be ignored. They will disappear automatically once our website is back online.

The mod is looking great! Would it be possible for you guys to do another shoutcast? I really enjoyed the last one and I think doing another might even garner more interest among browsers. Regardless, thank you for the awesome release!

corrupted files are usually a sign for an unsuccessfull download. You might have to redownload it. I suggest you use the torrent, because that one is less vulnurable

The US sniper is bugged. You need cover to get him to camouflage but after that, you can move him normally while stealthed. You should fix that.

Okay then. Will you add a hold position button like in blitzkrieg mod? It would be nice not to have all my men running towards the enemy. Just a suggestion.

I believe I may have uncovered bug.
If I que my riflemen to reinforce and THEN upgrade with rifle grenades it appears to significantly slow down reinforcement speed. However as soon as I cancel the upgrade reinforcement speed goes back to normal.

Is there any possibility to add something like the blitzkrieg mods "Hold Position" for infantry? I mean im really liking the mod, but when you stick your infantry in cover, they just run off and start shooting on their own. With "Hold Position" toggled on, they don't move. So im wondering if in an upcoming patch,you could add something like this.

Why can't I select any of the campaign missions? They seem to be locked for me. The skirmish works though. Using CoH, the first game.

Because playing the VCoH campaigns with the mod would result a crash of your game.

Pardon, but has anyone else noticed that the annihilate games seem to go on forever? As the US i destroyed the PLA hq, then set up a roadblock near their deployment area. (6 MG nests and a abrams) Killed over 70 engineer squads and the game kept going. Needless to say i got bored and exited, which made me lose lol. p.s. I'm sorry if this has been adressed earlier, but i cannot find any post to it.

I've noticed after playing two games as US that it is almost impossible to counter the instant armor in the Chinese get access to. TOW emplacements get shot to crap in no time, and any attempt to support the position with infantry is even more futile vs the 4 IFVs and APCs I have thrown at me at any one time as they simply run around to a position the TOW can't shoot at. The AT4 upgrade sucks even more because it costs so much to shoot just one when there are so many targets. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but what I experienced was horrible imbalance.

Have you tried the Stryker MGS and the Javelin squads?

If you have a specific balance concern, feel free to post it on our balance forums:

You WILL HAVE TO underline your claims with replays against human players though in order to proof your statement. AI matches don't count.

Gotta say, game is pretty unbalanced. US does not have sufficient anti-tank units. And ones, that it has- sucks big time. Stryker mobile gun system is like throwing rocks at a tank, TOW emplacement gets owned by few shots and infantry AT crews... are just horrible. AT4 has a gold price and effect... well it scratches paint. Javelin squad is as good as a turd on a road... at least turd could make armor slip and fall off the road. Vertical fire is useless, because you must designate ground target manually and even if you hit someone with it- no effect. By direct fire they always miss. Also, they tend to run in front of the vehicle and get mowed down like suicide bombers. I mean, WTF is that all about?
