Great New Sides Without Straying From the Original

I've played CoH:OF for a little while now and absolutely love it. The new sides add enough differences from the original game without deviating from the old formula to make this an excellent addition to the original. Let me say that again, it's an excellent addition to the original. If you don't have the original, get it first. I don't recommend it as a standalone because I don't know that the depth offered here is enough for anybody to play just this game alone. Gameplay is fun and certainly challenging. The AI is good and will always aim for your weaknesses, try and flank you, etc. Graphics are great, and the controls intuitive. If you're a fan of RTS, this, coupled with the original are must owns.

Great game

I just finished a two hour long session vs. two different enemies and had no problems whatsoever. The British side is a lot of fun to play. I haven't tried the new German sides. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because they still won't let you play allies vs. allies or axis vs. axis. It's a nitpick, but something I'd wanted.

Fun, Fun, Fun!

Yes, there are a couple of bugs still crashing the games here and there but that is the exception no the rule. This game plays well 98% of the time; at least on my end. I can't stop playing it. Buy this one and the original; you won't regret it. The atmospheric effects are worth every penny not to mention the new units and maps. CoH and CoH : Opposing Fronts are the best strategy games I have played so far. You won't be able to put them down.

I liked the first Company of Hero's so this one is great and it even has a campaign for the German side and a bonus unlock-able campaign

BETTER THAT FIRST

It is truly an exciting game. However, the forces are kind of unbalanced, with King Tigers and Jagdpanther dominate the whole field of armor and the British trench digging are render useless by mortar halftracks and motorcycles that just wander around capturing and cutting out your forces. It seems to me as if some of the doctrines doesn't even have the effect Relic intend to produce (or I am bad at the game...) The music is barely okay, and the campaigns get super repetitive after a while and especially after you earned all the metals. Online and local skirmish are the only elements that are the elements I like and have high replay values. The units are also detailed if your computer's graphics allows it to be. My PC is weak and sometimes experiences a few lagging experience. However if your computer is good then you are good to go. Take notes, the patching up is annoying. I spend two-three hours fixing almost nothing expect to play online (which I rarely do).

Best world war game .. Ever !!

I was addicted to this game for quite awhile. I stink, but I was still addicted. It is a fun strategy-type game, putting you in an semi-omniscient god mode. It is a worthy successor to the original, as the new units are fun to use.

The big problem for me is that I have networked my and my wife's computers at home through a router. This game's multiplayer mode will simply not work online if you are trying to connect to it through a router. And this little tidbit of info is nowhere to be found. I finally did connect to someone in multiplayer mode who knew about this and was kind enough to inform me.

I have no idea why this is so, but more to the point, there is no reason why this should be so. This is supposedly a known problem with the game, and it seems like they could issue a patch to fix this. But there hasn't been one.

Obviously, this is fixable by disconnecting the computer from the router and connecting directly to the internet without it. But that's annoying, and then I'll forget to reconnect the router and get hell for it from my wife who hasn't a clue except that she knows that she can't get online.

Otherwise, enjoy.

If you enjoyed the first...

You will enjoy this one as well. Not going to go into incredible detail. But definitely worth getting if you like Company of Heroes. I love the new German Panzer Elite. They are really versatile with defense as well as offense. Definitely great if you like fast attacks. I haven't played much with the British and from what I've experienced, I don't like them all that much. They will definitely take some getting used to. Campaign is great fun as well, I've finished the German campaign and I'm currently working on the British. This game is worth getting. I recommend it.

best world war two game!!!!!!
