It’s a learning game with a terrific pay-off, once you hone your personal favourite skills and strategies to march your way to victory. Inexperienced players may find the learning-curve steeper than other big-budget RTS games at first, but within an hour any player will have the basics down and be planning ahead for their next engagement. That is not to say the game is too hard, but rather that it is a good RTS game. Even the easiest difficulty can be a struggle if you do not move, position, and forge your army correctly. Missions have a great range of tactics, objectives, and unit compositions required to complete. Real-time strategy games sometimes fall short on single player in favour of more focus on the multiplayer, which while occasionally understandable can be somewhat disappointing if you dislike people and playing games with them.ĬoH2’s campaign is varied, well written, and a great stepping-stone to get you into multiplayer with a fighting chance. It’s more or less the same level of written praise as this preview, only with different rationale.īefore breaking down the missions one-by-one, it’s worth pointing out that the Company of Heroes 2 single player campaign is genuinely excellent – at least the four missions I played are. The single player is superb, and 2) you’ll be more interested in my multiplayer preview that you can read right here. If you are a player who is only interested in the multiplayer then 1) you’re missing out, my friend. I believe that 70 odds years is a fair spoiler warning. It will however mention specific mission objectives and locations, because that’s what actually happened in World War II.
This preview will contain no spoilers to the campaign story arc, or specific characters involved. At least 4 of the 5 first missions of the single player campaign. One of the franchises I feared most for during THQ’s bankruptcy is nearly here, and I was given a hands-on, real-time, opportunity to play the single player campaign.
Company of Heroes 2 is finally, almost, a thing.
