History on the game:

I'm sure some of you played or at least know Company Of Heroes.
You can't call yourself a strategy gamer, if you don't have this game!

And now after some long years and DLC's on it, they are gone publish a sequel in 2013.
Pre order = Beta access, date when that beta access will be is not yet confirmed or announced.

Small introduction:

So why is this game gone be a must have RTS game? If you aren't for strategy games, this is probably still not gone convenience you. But they are gone make a good game even better!

So far 2 factions are announced: Russians VS Germans
And probably they will be the only factions! Since COH2 will tell the story of WW2 on the Russian side! When COH1 told the WW2 story from the United states, British side against Germany!

[hr:c6255c438e]

A short list of known NEW features in COH2:


- In game realistic weather conditions.
- When playing on ice maps, soldiers have to keep warm or could freeze to death!
- Tanks driving on ice might fall into it and be lost!
- When tanks drive on snow, there tracks will be visible in the snow!
- Tank crew will be able to leave their tanks and run away!
- When soldiers are in the snow, there movement is slower and limiter.
- True line of sight, When objects are in the way of the soldiers, they will not see behind it. This is a new feature that isn't - really seen yet in Strategy games. They mostly all use a circle around the soldiers as a line of sight. But now objects houses, wrecks of tanks, ... will limit the line of sight! Making the ability for sneak attacks, flanking manoeuvres a more common reality probably!
- A new engine Essence Engine 3.0, will give a very nice new graphic approach to the units and environment!
- New Russian units, and also new German units will be present in COH2!
- Improved cover system, which was very important in COH1! Will now be even more refined to give more ways to flank or run away from incoming danger!
- The computer AI's will also be refined, so it will be more fun and realistic when fighting against a enemy controlled by the computer!
- Overall this is probably gone be THE RTS of 2013 for quite a long time! Can't wait to get beta access! :D
