[Game] Company of Heroes 2

Well, he basically said jack **** about it, nothing new in that interview. We have yet to see whether they'll actually make some sort of sensible compromise if they really want to include Order 227 or just go the blockhead 'Machineguns 50m behind advancing troops' route.
TBH CoH was basically "CoH: Saving Private Ryan" so I'm not too worried about this. It's disappointing, but as long as the gameplay is gold like the original I'll get it.
I never actually finished the original CoH campaign... all about the multiplayer

I'm completely the opposite. I could only play MP agaisnt friends, because joining pub matches was a torture. You are either a stupid n00b or a 1337 master player for CoH players. If you are not a l33t player who can issue 500 orders per second, your teammates are going to get pissed at you and leave the match. CoH players are some of the worst I've ever seen. They just won't let you learn or be an average player. That's why I spend most of my time in CoH on skirmishes.TBH CoH was basically "CoH: Saving Private Ryan" so I'm not too worried about this.

This describes me. I don't even play against friends, there's just way too many holes in CoH to plug, for my taste. I do love some 4 player co-op against the AI though. The sheer numbers of troops that start moving around makes for glorious artillery strikes.
This is exactly how I describe CoH to friends. "Saving Private Ryan: The Video Game." I get that historical accuracy about the order really gets under some people's skin, but I find it hard to get worked up about it. (If it ends up completely ruining my game or forcing me to play in unfun ways to win, then I'll be angry.)

I think coh 1v1ing is one of the most rewarding and fun experiences I've had in gaming. Nothing like a tense split map game on semois that comes down to the center VP control.
The game needs fewer gimmicks though with the damn zombie bunkers and blob combat of OF. For every crazy idea of relics that actually has gameplay and fun value there are 5 that should never have made it past brainstorming...

This. Some of the most rewarding games I've had were 1 v 2 skirmishes using the Invasion 44 mod. This is actually the reason I've given up playing ANY RTS online. Either everyone expects you to zerg rush and win in 5 minutes or you're a loser and they quit.
Play americans. Select airborne. Select Strafe. Annihilate whole armies. ??? . profit.
People who blob are easily taken down. Examples: Mines, arty, 2x MGs (one wont work), oswinds, any tank as long as you can micro it. etc etc.
Blobbing in DOW2 was much more serious of an issue, no way to wipe armies realistically.
1v1 automatch is where it's at.
The game gets a bit too spammy for my taste past 2v2 anyways.
Most badass trailer ever!

Even the teaser itself was horrible. How can they skip german sacrifices/losses and go straight into Russian heroes, when they are talking about eastern front? Like Soviet was anything but horrible tyrant nation that deserves no sympathies. If it's nothing to do with politics then why only say Russian soldier/civilian sacrifies, I can't believe we are still talking about united pure take down the germans at this age. I can't even imagine which would have been more horrific: German winning or Soviet Union winning over Europe, both ended and would have ended with massive casulties.
Don't want to dissapoint you, but they have something planned for that too... No info as of yet though, but I don't think it can be good with the Enemy At The Gates approach they are going for (at least for the campaign).
A great multiplayer is all I am asking for...

I suppose in this modern world you are entitled to your opinion. But read up a bit, and dont make me angry, you wont like me when I'm angry.
Exactly. I always played Co-Op v AI with some mod or on the vanilla maps and in rare occasions 2v2 with friends. Anyway I am disappointed by CoH 2. WW2 is way overused. Its just boring already, really. No matter which front they show. Eastern, Western - it doesn't matter. Its still WW2 which is boring. I sooo wanted CoH: Vietnam :/
Unless you're an abusive husband this little diddle of supposed badassery looks really dorky. Especially over the Internet. Just to let you know.
The Fascist's deserve it and dont you dare to talk about soviet soldiers like that.
