Company Of Heroes thread

Only way I play

mods almost always trash the game balance and just add loads of retarded units so I've never even given it a look

Only for compstomps :^)

urban defense is vastly better now

JESUS CONRAD

1 had the better unit banter and doctrine system but 2's gameplay improvements are too good for me to go back to it. USF best faction, I always love the mobile factions in RTS games.

Heavy cav, rolling out!

i got Coh 2 for free and it was so fucking bad i still wanted a refund

kek

dream COH would be eastern front with COH2´s unit status for easy overview along with the the visuals

JESUS CONRAD TIE YOUR FUCKING LACES.

Why do buildings look so much better in coh1?

The english dub of the germans was so fucking bad.

HAMMERS AND NAILS BOYS HAMMERS AND NAILS.

Infantry was the shittiest general in coh1, rangers are literally a vastly shittier version of airborne

Are you fucking retarded? Rangers were OP as fuck, literally unstoppable with 3 squads.

PANZERSCHRECK! TIME TO UNPIMP HIS RIDE!

Btw is there a mod to remove the coloured stripes? Having blue shit on my beautiful Sherman makes my balls go blue as well.

Rangers anti-tank was way shittier than the recoilless rifle

Unlikely. Who the fuck would bot for COH of all things. More likely a fanboy.

Blitzkrieg Mod does this, other than that idk.

it did more damage but less penetration, which didnt really matter anyway since fucking every axis vehicle just bounced everything

I WANT FULL AUTO AND FINGERS ON THOSE TRIGGERS

The bazooka was also less accurate, recoilless rifle is still better

The german dub of the germans is great. But americans trying to speak german makes me fucking cringe.

iCuck posters like OP are low effort and low quality just like all other phoneposters

It's much better than 2.

is this game anything like men of war: assault squad?

No, they're very different despite both being WW2 strategy games.

No, its got base building and is more focused on controlling individual squads than microing individual men

why is coh2 interface such a fucking painful mess? icons are disgusting too

Will USF ever be good for longer than a week in CoH2?

they seriously and unironically complain about penals still, it's unbelievable. you can counter them by using a standard build and using standard tactics. gas all wehraboos. you can even kill PTRS penals with light vehicles. how these brainlets ever lose a vehicle to PTRS I will never understand

>pg shrekblobs
>carry around 2 massive rocket launchers and ammo
>apparently still have enough room to carry bundle cancer grenades

do wish relic would make some of these weapon upgrades more of a tradeoff where you lose some versatility and have to use your brain somewhat. I think that would've added a lot to the game - too late now though obviously

git gud

wot's this?

what dlc is worth it for coh2 single player?

CoH is more of a traditional RTS with a WW2 theme rather than a tism sim like MoW.
I like both.

>mfw 1000 hours coh 2
>mfw never played the singleplayer

I heard it's broken as shit by all the balance updates. they might've fixed it though idk

Ardennes Assault is the only single player dlc

it is actually appalling how fucking gutted and powercreeped USF are right now
it all went downhill the moment rifles lost their scaling power, and then the final nail in the coffin was the smoke nerf
the 2cp at gun + parars BARELY made them viable for a bit and oops, thats too strong nerf it all away

unironically the british, a faction that been continuously nerfed on every goddamn fucking unit and commander its ever had, is much stronger and viable than USF

the absolute state of coh 2 balance

Yeah, 2’s doctrine system is junk when compared to 1, but when gameplay is otherwise so much better in 2, I’d still rather play 2. Having 1’s doctrine system in 2 instead of those commanders would be my dream.

the non-base factions have always been a bit wonky. I do wish relic had stuck to the original pitch for okw rather than watering their differences down and giving them every tool wehr has and removing all their shortcomings

usf I kind of like, but I can't really deal with having that many high value infantry squads with slightly different abilities, and the ambulance situation where you are able to deploy it somewhere else on the map, but with the current state of infiltration horseshit and retardedly strong raketenwerfers and shit it's just a really bad idea. I feel like the potential for usf is good, but I need to put in really a lot of effort, while an okw player can just be asleep at the keyboard, steamrolling everything with lmgs and endless broken abilities

Its not hard to configure at all and the results are pretty great

I never saw a single MoW thread because everyone screams "muh micro" every time

I think the doctrine system was a good idea, but it relied on them making balanced commanders, which they did not do. bulletins again were a huge missed opportunity. if relic deleted like 90% of them and just had a few but made them more powerful like 10% bonuses rather than 2%, you'd end up with what they were aiming for, where you can specialise in something but your opponent knows about it

MEN OF WAR BETTER

Man, those bulletins are sure were a strange addition to the game, tons of miniscule bonuses that are so insignificant that they mean basically nothing 99,99% of the time. How come that they never asked themselves that is there any point to that bullshit?

I can't believe Relic went on to make Dawn of War 3. What a fucking disaster.

CoH 2 improves on lots of the mechanics, has beautiful world-class visuals, sound design and voice-work, but suffers greatly because of the insane amount of microtransactions and dlc SEGA(?) ruled the game should have. A big shame

I think you guys are ignoring how effortlessly two fully-upgraded ranger squads can tear through literally any infantry Axis can throw at you. You only think Airborne are better because they are easier to use and more useful at lower ranks than Rangers are.

GIVE ME A RIFLE, ONE ROUND, AND POINT ME AT BERLIN

Axis buildings are the only concrete ones, which makes sense for occupied France

>Relic has been doing down in quality since Company of Heroes

Airborne can also reinforce anywhere on the field, that's a big plus

Kys warhams

So, how is everyone feeling about the inevitable Age of Empires sequel Relic is currently working on for Microsoft?

Since we have no concrete news of it yet, I'm still hoping they end up making a fuckin masterpiece.

i misread the post oopsie

DoW 3 never came out
it was cancelled right guys, i mean who would go out and make a moba and call it an RTS

Attached: angryassassin.jpg (900x582, 383K)

you know, i find it quite interrested that Relic games dropped in quality after their first CEO died in a car crash

CoH 2 was and is really good. lots of people liked DoW 2, but I never tried it because I'm not gay

I liked CoH2 but it is inferior to CoH. Playing as the Russians was fun though,

Oh man I forgot about that incident, a real shame.

your brain is inferior, you've got nostalgiafag

compstomp fags (most rts players) hated DoW2 because the AI was shit and you couldn't build bases.
The multiplayer is solid, but imbalanced as hell unless you get the Elite mod and manage to find a game with the 50 people left who still play it.
The campaign is fantastic, and is the perfect video game adaptation of what space marines do in the lore.
