Company of Heroes needs...

More armies to play...don't get me wrong, it's a great game and the 4 armies are very unique with many different strategies for each one. But...it gets a little boring sometimes. If they came out with another expansion...maybe adding two more armies....I wouldn't hesitate for a second to buy it. Maybe Japanese for Axis and Russians for Allies? Both unique and could open up many new possibilities of playing. Anyone has any thoughts on this? Or anything else COH is missing, that would make a great addition to the game?

Russians would be very cool. Now I wanna go watch Enemy at The Gates!

Dark and I always talked about how bad ass a COH:Modern Armies would be.... Oh the possibilities...

They are going to extend the gameplay of COH into the next Dawn of War release and I would bet after another expansion to COH they would be looking at a COH2 which I would hazard a guess will not be set in old ww2...

What I love is that this game was released in 2006 and it's still better than a lot of RTS games released since.

Modern armies would be cool - but not so much futuristic crap. I think C&C3 is nice graphically, but there's something to be said about the simplistic nature of the WW2 look.

The wont go future. 40k is for future fun. They would go modern most likely though. What they should do is go all Napoleonic with huge lines of infantry blasting away at each other with muskets; sword wielding cavalry; and massed cannon fire!

They could do Napoleon's march on Russia where he marched in with 400,000+ troops, and managed to escape the russian winter with a meager 10,000...

That would be cool - a Napoleonic conquest game.

I think that a Napleonic war or a Vietnam war would do the franchise more dignity than a modern war. Modern war is not as blocky as the infantry, engineer etc etc.

I think the lines of soldiers would be really cool.

Company of Heroes should stay WW2 IMO. Napleonic and Vietnam are both good ideas but would better suit a different game altogether just like 40k for future. They should just continue expanding COH... would work better...i think.

So I played the single player of Tales of Valor and holy shit, is it me or did SP get bloody difficult??

I haven't completed any of the campaigns cause it takes too damn long. It's like RTS meets RPG. Fuck that. I like wargames to take an hour max. I got way too much going on to spend on that. Maybe during retirement in 50 yrs.

I like some of the concepts though of defending points vs acquiring territory. I still prefer acquiring territory and holding it. That to me is what makes a conquest game fun, finding tactical ways to attack & defend. I still love the original CoH too. Maps were lacking.

So ya, that's all I got for now.
