I would say about 2/3 of all negative reviews involve the words 'fascist propaganda' The game wasn't very good on its own merits but for god sakes stop defending the Soviet Union. I would say After reading many of the negative reviews about this game I have to write a counter to all of this historical accuracy bashing. I could use some more multiplayer maps! Great job Relic! … ExpandĪfter reading many of the negative reviews about this game I have to write a counter to all of this historical accuracy bashing. I hope they fix some of the balancing issues and adjust the facing issue with crewed weapons. The multitude of features adds a lot of depth. I think it's well worth the purchase price if you're into RTS games. It's historically accurate and tons of fun. Overall COH 2 has great graphics, lots of features, pretty solid gameplay, with some minor balance issues. I think the game honors the brave sacrifice that millions of Russians made against incredible odds. They basically had to throw bodies at the German war machine to even have a hope of delaying it. The Germans were a brutal enemy and survival required the Russians to make huge sacrifices because at the beginning of the conflict they weren't nearly as well armed or as well trained. Unlike some of the reviews I think they portray the conflict honestly and don't degrade the Russians at all. The single player campaign has been pretty easy so far, but I appreciate the story and cut scenes. Having to micro manage every interaction can be frustrating. Mortar teams turn to lob rounds at nearby enemies why not HMG Teams and Anti-Tank Guns? If you face a crew it should turn to face threats and then return to the original facing. There's nothing more annoying than having an HMG team flanked because they won't reface quickly enough especially when the attacking force is clearly visible upon approach.

I also really wish that team crewed weapons like HMG Teams and Anti-Tank Guns would turn to face potential threats on their own. It does seem like Russian units are weaker than their German counterparts, but they still cost a lot of manpower, ammunitions, and fuel. This would reflect the reality of the conflict better, but that's not the case. Russian units should be less effective, but much cheaper. It seems that German units should be more expensive, but much more effective. I find it odd that Russian units require as many resources as they do. The balancing of the PvP and PvAI could use some tweeking. The Theater of War, AI Automatch, Custom Game, and PvP AutoMatch features add a ton of depth to the game that greatly increase it's replayability. I like that several maps are available in winter or summer versions. The added features like winter weather hazards, better line of site, and the ability to vault obstacles are welcome editions although the vaulting is a little more cumbersome than it should be. Relic didn't waste time trying to reinvent the wheel, which is great because the original COH was near perfection. Relic didn't waste time trying to I have over a hundred hours into this game between the beta and launch. I have over a hundred hours into this game between the beta and launch. Engage in visceral tactical combat that will define you as a military leader and challenge you to wield the might of the Soviet Empire as you smash your way to Berlin. Your strategic skills and tactical expertise hold the power to tip the very balance of this conflict in the sequel to the critically acclaimed and multi award-winning Company of Heroes.
