How about you remove Denuvo from Humankind first?

Devs that make COH are the same devs that made Humankind? lol

I think what he meant was instead of sending resources to other companies, that Amplitude should focus on the stability of their own games first.

heroes 3 était un jeu excellent. Je ne savais pas que Amplitude avait repris.

No, I mean if Romain ignores pleads of his player-base since ES2, why should we pay attention to what he says.

I mean that's not what they said. The want them to remove denuvo which isn't going to happen.

Neat! Happy to see that your platform is getting more use.

However, it seems that it requires the registration of a new account? Bit of a bummer. If you're all under the same publisher, wouldn't it make more sense to have a single Game2Gether account for all studios/franchises. I think SEGA's marketing guys would like it, if you explained it to them:

1. It gives a big headstart to any new game launched if you can let all the pre=existing Games2Gether users in;
2. It introduces more users to different games = more sales.
3. More cross-franchise activity = more interest = more popularity = more social media attention.
4. More user loyalty = harder to walk out on your Games2Gether account if all your favourite games are tied to the same account.

Last but perhaps most importantly, saves me the bother of making yet another account ;P

I'll echo the disappointment that I'll need a separate G2G account for CoH3.

Definitely confused on the need for separate accounts, curious how many "G2G" profiles I'll have a few years from now.

I'm here to congratulate you, Amplitude Studios, for the magnificent Games2Gether platform, but also to support the thesis of previous users who stressed discomfort, and possible not exploited advantages, of having to have two separate accounts for games belonging to two studies that are of the same group and they are collaborating.

ok?

It does seem a little odd for me to need to create a duplicate G2G account for COH, but I assume it's intended to be used as seperate platforms specific to each developer's catalogue by design rather than as an oversight. If SEGA were adopting G2G wholesale for its partner companies to use for their titles I'd expect it would have made more sense for them to maintain a singular account, but as SEGA doesn't appear to have made that move (yet?) I assume it is purely voluntary and left to the individual companies to decide whether or not to integrate.

Having to make an additional account for COH3 is weird. Is there any way to link them?

agreed should be able to link my relic account with make games together account, its weird it looks like it makes a new games together with my relic details?

like i get why you might want the points to be different but like.. i go to the coh website, enter my relic details in the relic login.. which then logs me into a games2gether account with my relic details??? this is badly designed by both relic and games2gether,    tho not as badly designed as relics site which.. if you go to relics site (not coh just relic) you cant log in at all, nothing happens lol

Hey all,

In full transparency, we (Amplitude and Relic) discussed the different approaches: should we have 1 portal to rules them all, or different platforms for each studio?

As Amplitude, it made sense to have everyone under the same flag with unified accounts. But Relic has an historic userbase and a strong branding that they wanted to preserve.

We wanted to provide them with a custom solution that allows them to engage with their community and profit from our platform, but also fits their needs in term of userbase ownership and strong branding -- so we ended up with this solution. Maybe one day, in the future, those things will change, but for now we're excited to see that Relic is getting a lot of success with their users on this solution and has already a very lively community on their platform.

fair and makes sense if thats what they want, tho like a button somewhere on the games2gether site to go to the company of heroes site / version of games2gether or something would be nice, rather then having to go to google and search it 

Well, CoH is not my cup of tea, so hoping I'll jump in with next Dawn of War or something. Wish them luck!
