Agreed. You could bring down a wall or even a castle with a bunch of elite longbowmen! Now that was epic! :eek:hyeah:
 
I loved the first instalment of Company of Heroes and played it many times over. Currently started playing AOE III after playing AOE II for months. Already reached 55 Lvl home city with 5 more home cities on level 30-40. :)

Waiting for this to release. Hope I don't have to upgrade my GTX260 to play this on FHD.
 
Ah good old RTSes. This game seems the only beacon of hope on the horizon for this genre. :) They damn ****ed up the beloved AOE and C&C series. :mad:

This was the reason I did not like the AoE OR any of the earlier RTS's [sad physics and accuracy], I like a bit of realism in games. I mean cataphracts taking down a bunch of infantry / siege weapons / archers = fine; seeing the same unit taking out a Castle / Tower, I was like :scared14:!!!

Another preview hot from the oven, into Destructoid.com.
 
I've really been disappointed with the recent RTS games (Dawn of War series), they're terrible compared to CoH or Warcraft 3. Since Warcraft has gone MMO, CoH2 is the only hope for a great RTS game in the near future.
 
I'm thinking of getting the old CoH, as I've never played it before. Is it still worth buying? Should I buy the original or Tales of Valor or Opposing Fronts? On FK the games are out of stock. Where else can I buy it?

Everything was 10$ on Steam a few days back :P

You can still buy it on Steam i guess.
 
Is it just me or there isn't much of a graphics overhaul over the 2007 COH?

I am fine with those graphics, if they have integrated Dx 11 features, good for us. If not and still maintained a modicum of graphics fidelity, I am satisfied.

I just hope that the population cap has been improved / tweaked upon. It used to keep switching from mission to mission and tanks used to take massive chunks of it.
 

Company of Heroes 2 Developer Diary, detailing:
  • TrueSight system
  • Weather FX -- how different maps play out in different weather
  • Vaulting, yes this is a brand new feature
