Company of Heroes 2 Reviews

After years of playing every version of CoH it's still fun. Great game

Can't even launch the game. Sometimes it close itself after launching. Have been playing normally without problem when the last time i bought it but in these recent months, the game does even launch and force close itself. Hope it gets fixed soon. (if it does, then i'll change my review).

I like the RTS style of games with the overhead interface. There is a lot of options and presets you can set up allowing you to do things as short cuts. You can also change the level of difficulty making it easier to learn the game and build up skill levels.

good RTS, just try to understand how u should play with ur faction first and it works wonders u start seeing little things and tricks in pvp

It's not as fun as the original, whilst there are a lot more cool features, it doesn't come close to the original for me in how fun it is.

Stopped playing CoH2 ages ago. Too much of grinding is required if you don't want to buy the overpriced commanders. The campaign mode was boring and too preachy in my opinion. It's kinda fun to play with your friends against bots on the highest difficulty. It gets sweaty and frustrating. But very satisfying once you win. Against other players tho, my ass is not built for this. Other players are too experienced and will put pressure on you ASAP. I start malding and can't do anything to defend myself. Skill issue of course, but I did put a decent amount of hours to try to git gud. It wasn't enough, and I will not play CoH games after experiencing this. Would still leave a positive review, but the monetization of this game is ass, and CoH3 looks like a game that is even worse than this one. So I can't recommend this game. I rather play good old Rise of Nations.

it's actually an good game, if you know how to play it and yeah, i would not recommend it buying it if it's not on sale. only if it's on sale.

Extremely good game, with good mechanics, fun divers factions and a mod compatibility ! Been playing this since 2015 and I can't stop !

I don't typically write reviews however, this is a game I constantly come back to. Its something that I can pick up and play at anytime and drop when ever something else peeks my interest for the time. Its fun to play with friends. Its a great WW2 Strat game that I think is well worth the money. My only gripe is that the developers have not added any kind of Asian Factions. I think it would have been really fun to organize Banzai Charges in Bastogne or something. But beggars can't be choosers they say. Buy this game.
