Company of Heroes 3

best modern rts on the market. other games are half assed. havent had this much fun since ruse and command and conquer. id give it 100 stars if i could.

This is a multiplayer only game with a half-hearted single player.

Every aspect of the game is worse than the two before - which is hard to do, considering how bad CoH2 was compared to number 1.

I bought this game near launch, and I have zero desire to ever install it again. It i NOT the company of heroes I liked - its a multiplayer crapshow with that being the entire focus of unit balances.

idk man, nothing like the 1st or 2nd. which is fine. but gameplay is just not it. how did SEGA fail like this lol

If you love COH franchise like I do, give it a try.
pros:
-improved graphics
-satisfying gameplay
-balanced mechanics
-multiple replayability
cons:
-weak allied campaign, turn based strategy feels confusing and takes a while to get a grip of it.
-not as many choices of companies in each faction rosters as COH2.

After the 2.0.5 update, I use my keyboard way more often on the BugSplat crash screen than I do playing the actual game.
This could be Relic's own way of secretly hiring me as a bug tester, who knows.

the game is toxic that's for sure, the Allies are much more balanced and have an advantage in the game over the axis, whoever says otherwise is just not admitting to this fact since probably is an Allies player himself.
I have it on PC and console and on console it is forgotten and not a single mention in the devs posts or future patches.
The game favours the allies and I've played both with a good elo kind of.
If you want to keep your sanity or you like to play with Axis more than Allies, stay away from this game and look for something else.
Unless they release a new patch to make all factions equal, the game has less and less players online as per Coh3 stats website.

I have to say, that I'm disappointed.

I have a thousand of hours in COH2 and I was a big fan for COH1 back in the day even before I have my steam. Both COH1 and COH2 have great campaign story and an even better multiplayer in COH2, meanwhile COH3 somehow take 1 step forward but fall hundreds of step backward. Inferior audio both in voice dialogues and environment sounds, the gameplay effect in this game looks for arcade-y for some reason, very bright environment color yet somehow boring, not quite fond over how balancing work in this game both for infantry and tanks; game often end before reaching late game session, very very slow update even for only a small tweak like changing how much a unit deal dmg; skill cooldown; etc, very boring campaign both for italy and north african, INSANE MONETIZATION; YOU ASK US TO PAY HALF OF THE GAME PRICE TO BUY YOUR "EXPANSION" AND IT'S JUST A BUNCH COMMANDERS??? and dont forget the in-game store is so boring I even forget it exist, and why do they have to change the keybind from COH2 after people has been so used to from there??

I get myself this game despite knowing this game's bad reputation, deep down i wish relic is gonna fix this game because of how much this game has its potential. Otherwise I cant recommend this game to other people, sorry

Being a veteran of COH 1 and 2, I believe that after 2 years of fixes and adjustments, this game finally deserves better reviews. It still needs work, but its well worth the money now.

Company of Heroes 3 is like a fine wine. It’s taken time to ferment into something worth breaking open and investing into - only reaching this point through a labor of love on behalf of the devs.

I got this game on Xbox Series X on launch with a few friends because it was rare to see a “real” RTS on console. About 80 hours in, I had finished building my PC, console updates were announced to be done, and i was still enjoying multiplayer enough to get it on PC.

Apart from the performance bonuses, and additional support past console’s lifespan, the game started to get really good in the lead up to the 2.0 update - maps were consistently added to PVP, there was some more variety to battle groups, and balance was coming in check nicely, spare for a few German units, imo.

Once the 2.0 update arrived, i’ve been unable to put the game down, and i haven’t even touched campaign (I’ll get to it someday - i just wish there was a coop/versus mode with the turn based campaign map!), more friends bought it on sale, and we consistently get intense games, where strategy can prevail over unit domination. Close calls, victories and losses, I don’t really walk away feeling like something was broke. or beyond unfair, my failures, and by extension my teams, are measurable in the areas where we did not adjust soon enough, or made poor judgement calls in unit comp/defense.

I feel like there’s a ton of strategy, and even core content i haven’t touched yet in my time that i’m eager to get to - but we’re so caught up in the multiplayer and variety it offers that it’s our go to.

It pains me to see this game still rated as “mixed,” it 100% was a game that launched with flaws and feeling somewhat barebones, but now it feels like diehards of the earlier games, (namely coh2) with active multiplayer scenes are starting to come around and migrate to CoH3. If updates remain consistent, the player count will keep rising with a dedicated base that stays around. The game now is entirely different (positive in every way) than the product we got at launch, and the “mixed” reviews unfortunately don’t represent the games quality now.

I would argue the only things i would want or wish for this game, are :

-more battlegroup releases, or maybe even a new main faction. The battlegroup system is nice, but a hard sell with the prices for the DLC - I don’t play axis, so i’m only using half the product at that point anyway.

-an impossible ask at this point, but a pacific theater of war dlc would pump huge life into the game and its player count/interest.

-coop/versus with the turn based map from campaign. ability to save the session and return to it over multiple days.

There will always be some balance kinks to work out - it’s the nature of multiplayer in 2025. I think overall the game is balanced well, the only unit that feels unfair for the time you can get it is the german engineer/grenadier upgrade. Early on and even late game it will simply shred your infantry almost immediately. Some light vehicles don’t even stand a chance against them either when the DPS isn’t DPS’ing. Apart from that, no standouts on imbalance for me.

Game good.

Great game. Quite aesthetically pleasing. Pretty well balanced I think. The pace is fast and exciting without being too fast. As a long time player of both the previous titles I do agree with the initial reviews in that it felt off at launch. But credit to the devs, they've worked on it like it was the cure for cancer and feels really good now. It rivals the magic that was the first game. I'm definitely as hooked as I was then.

Really I only wish they included extensive voice lines for the units like they did in the first one. Or at least recycle more from the last two games. It really added to the gritty environmental realism of the 1st one. And was a big reason I think it was so memorable.

The British especially feel sparse. But they did go above and beyond in way already by including specific dialects. So it's a pretty small gripe and the only one I could really come up with.

Great job devs! Thanks for keeping the spirit alive

always matched agains overpowered players. german team is overpowered as always it doesn't match the real power they actually had,Maps are a big issue for me there is not enough maps it is always the same 5 maps i get when i play quick match. they are all one point control maps that actually get really annoying i regret my purchase i was stupid to believe it could be a better game than the others. i miss coh1 , 2 was worst, 3 is dump dont spend your money unless you have no life and can play 24/7 to match the online players

It's going to be a short and quick recommendation just to see it go about mixed reviews.
Game is alright as it is now and multiplayer is probably at its most balanced state; despite still having issues, it's bearable.
I didn't play much of the campaing, only tried the italian one for a bit and it was alright, nothing crazy.

If you are looking for a competitive RTS about ww2, this is most likely the best you'll get as of now.
The community is live, no problem at all finding matches at any level far as I am aware. Though, I would be lot happier if the patches were more frequent, having an at least 3 months down time between per patch isn't the best. I guess I should be grateful for having an rts game with continued dev support at this day&age.

The game has entered a stage where I don't understand the hate anymore. The balance is a bit more towards the axis side (nothing new) and the british tanks feel good (my main <3). Could use a dedicated tank destroyer instead of relying on battlegroups for mobile heavy anti-tank support. been havin great games and bad games but enjoy it a good bit.

Now, the random battles can have great teammates and toxic teammates. If you can, play it with some friends or risk the randoms (I know i do).

Final verdict. Worth it for me but wait for sales if you want to just try it out.

Hard pass.

Bought this at 50% sale, and i still felt the need to check my watch constantly to be able to refund this disasterclass of a game and make sure these vampires dont get my money.

How can you make a sequel that's worse than the previous one in every observable metric ?

This used to be a magnificent IP, carried by a far above average studio. Now its just another stupid cashgrab by yet another studio who became a total slave to corporate hubris over the years.

RIP Relic, thanks for Homeworld, Dawn of War 1 and 2 and Company of Heroes 1 and 2 though, you will be missed.

Company of Heroes 3 gave me a truly amazing experience
From the very first mission, i felt deeply engaged the tactical gameplay, beautiful visuals and immersive sound design all came together perfectly
It wasnt just fun; it gave me a real sense of satisfaction and joy
Every battle felt meaningful and i didnt want to stop playing
Its one of those rare games that leaves you with a really good feeling after every session

Good gameplay. Some factions seem OP, but fun

I want to change my review to be more specific about the game and not just be angry about it, and I'm talking exlusevely about the multiplayer part.
This game feels like a toxic relationship: every three or four matches, you finally have fun—and that occasional high keeps you hooked, even though most of the time it’s infuriating. You tell yourself, “Maybe next match I won’t get run over by infantry blobs, maybe my teammate won’t go AFK at the start, maybe I'll not encounter 5 MGs again...”
But the reality is that several factions are virtually uncounterable:
-Ranger squads can single-handedly dismantle entire armies;
-The US Airborne Battlegroup can spawn MGs, infantry, and AT guns anywhere, making tiers 2 and 3 useless;
-With the Canadians BG you can one-shot full squads with and incendiary granade, even if they dodge;
-British over-repair vehicles can roam the map unchallenged, eating AT shots like candies;
-Pershing tanks sprint like Ferraris with cannons on top;
-Bersaglieri dash across the map, capturing points before you even realize the game has started;
-2-pounder AT guns pen every vehicle at an MG’s rate of fire;
-US MG teams shrug off four or five assault grenades, laughing at you;

Spam tactics like infantry blobs, cheap-unit rushes, or oppressive artillery/light-vehicle spamming dominate 90% of victorious strategies. Three years in, the developers’ balance patches have barely made a dent. It feels like they lack the expertise or willingness to properly test and tune each update.

The DLCs only worsen the problem. They feels like pay-to-win. New battlegroups are so overpowered they should have been nerfed BEFORE release, not after 2-3 patches, that comes after 2-3 months.
Are they fun? Yes.
Do they blend in the game? Absolutely not.

Despite all this, I keep playing, because that one fun match every four is addictive.
But would I recommend it?
Absolutely not.

The game is in great state right now. Go and support it.

Need to get rid of the leaving a game penalty. I'm not going to play another 20-30 mins of a game when the team are obviously terrible. CoH2 didn't have this and wasn't a problem there. To many Woke baby's get upset when you leave them after they threw the game away with dumb decisions.
Balance is always terrible. When they get close to balance they massivley buff some dumb unit or mechanic so noobs can blob 1 unit and walk over someone trying to use micro and skill rather than an Anti-Everything unit.
STILL TERRIBLE BALANCE 2 YEARS LATER!

I have player ALL the CoH series and loved each one. People get all hung up on this detail or that, but the genre is rock solid and the RTS approach is one of (if not THE) best. Friends and I will play co-op, vs or comp-stomp and it's all fun. Sometimes completely infuriating, but that's what makes the next match fun. Since the studio went private, they have only gotten better. Thank you for leaving the greedy corporation and focusing on the gamer!

This scratches my COH itch just the same as 1 and 2 but with modern graphics and some changeups in the army compositions. Is it the best product Relic ever made? No. Is it well worth it if you love Company of Heroes? Yes.

1 star they are hacking the game and the game not good they build so faster i do not what going on

Update: It was recently brought to my attention that I used to run around hotels wearing nothing but an elephant trunk style thong, and that led to some self-reflection. I may not be the best judge of game-character, but I do know one thing. I love my friends, and my friends love Company of Heroes. Ipso facto, I now love Company of Heroes.

Previous Review: This game just isn't for me, Steam is asking me to review it. I play because my friends like it. Age of Empires is my preference for a RTS game.

Each faction is quite unique. I like that you can still play against bots. Have been playing a lot of online skirmishes with friends against bots, and still not bored.

DLCs are a rip. game is good, although you rarely get to use end tier units but hiding all the good content behind paywalls when the game is $85 is a joke.

Only buy it if its $30 on sale, not worth $85 while content is hidden behind a paywall.

It's missing something CoH2 had. I think it's the grand feeling it had and the variety of units. I have fun playing this, but I do get bored after several matches. It's worth a buy on sale but it has a lot of room to grow.

I've been a fan of the Company of Heroes Franchise for as long as I remember. I didn't get the chance to truly play CoH 1 multiplayer or CoH Online but I certainly spent a fair share of my time playing CoH2 on and off for years before CoH3 Released.

While it is true that many aspects of CoH3 have been improved compared to release, there is just something that does not click with this game, regardless of what all the other reviews say on this game. It's sort of my first time leaving a negative feedback on a game and it kills me that it is on this franchise, one that I love the most out of all the games in my library.

I could go on about the multiplayer balancing and how the developers give little regards to player feedbacks; I am a game developer as well and, as much as I genuinely do not like their decisions and communication politics -being non-transparent about what they're working on until finally a log drops months after a terrible balancing update- I respect the fact that balancing a game is extremely difficult. There are going to be ups and downs. I think several other reviews have covered this aspect pretty well. I will rather focus on the art style and atmosphere of this title.

What irks me the most is how unpolished the game feels so far. It's a shell of what made Company of Heroes, Company of Heroes. The menus, especially outside regular gameplay (main menu) are just developer arts. That's how I can describe them best; boxes, rectangles, hard contours, very VERY blocky and repetitive. As a game and, by extension, a work of art, this game does not immerse you in a theme when you launch it up. Company of Heroes 2 had MASTERED this area from the get-go. While I do know that CoH2 required a NASA computer to run, we were immediately set in the mood for what was coming.

Speaking of mood; the musics are absolutely TERRIBLE. I do remember reading somewhere that the "producers" decided to go with dynamic rythms and stitching together pieces of harmonics on runtime, while also making sure those samples had as little repetitive patterns are possible so that you don't feel like they loop and aren't irritating to listen to; but in practice the exact opposite happens. This means that, for as little musics as there are in this game, they have NO charm or character whatsoever. They do not set you in a mood, they aren't memorable. Eventually as a developer you have to bite the bullet and realize that if something doesn't work in practice, you aren't exactly forced to keep it. Changing that system back to a regular music system with properly tailored tracks, would help the game build back its identity that it terribly lacks.

It feels like I am bashing, and in a way I am, because I had and still have so much expectations for the successor of Company of Heroes 2 which again have mastered every single of these departments. The audio mixing and panning in this game is, you guessed it, atrocious. Pan your camera a half-map away from combat and everything turns quiet. No echo, your base can be getting nuked as we speak and, for all I know I'd hear birds chirping. In an artistical standpoint this feels very isolating and just empty, but on a gameplay perspective, it cuts you off from other units that aren't close to your camera. Forget about audio cues that hints you on the fact that your teammates are getting demolished right now (let's say, by an artillery barrage) because unless you actually GO and check their side, you won't hear it.

Voice active... I do understand budget constraints and whatnots, especially that CoH3 was really set on the back-burner when Sega was still in charge of Relic. But by god dialogues are shallow in this game. There are good things, like accents for certain units like scotts, canadians, indians and so on, but the dialogues are just so limited and unmemorable. When CoH2 released, the game had such a dialogue depth AND was dubbed in a plethora of foreign languages too.

The campaign I genuinely didn't even bother so, take it as you will. I just know that a "grand campaign" format should have not been done on CoH3. CoH2's campaign was again such a masterpiece that would immerse you into a universe and a setting, even if it wasn't exactly accurate on all its representation. CoH3 campaign is a bit lazy. You don't need to work on expensive cutscenes and story-telling, you create your "own story" by controlling the units on a map ! But this isn't Total War and as such this is reflected on the depth of the campaign. If I wanted to play a grand campaign style game, I would play a grand campaign style game, not a Company of Heroes. Other reviews have gone more in depth about the campaign so refer to these for more details on that, because again, the idea of a grand campaign was such a let-down that I just didn't bother.

Overall, this game is a shadow of its former big brothers. It lacks ANY sorts of charm. It struggles to find an identity, and the developers aren't exactly helping it. Playing the multiplayer feels okay, but I don't feel the impact of the battle the same way I felt on CoH2. Particles, sounds, camera shake, voice active, all of these elements can make or break the immersion and I feel like the developers failed on this front. All of these contribute to this "unfinished" aspect, and this is telling especially more than 2 years after release now. I do understand prioritizing having a good gameplay than a good art; but this is to the extreme, it's as if the devs isolated CoH2 gameplay, changed lots of things and injected it in a new title without everything that gravitates around a gameplay: the art.

This is such a shame, not only for the Franchise but also knowing what the developers are capable of. The engine this game runs on is lightyears more powerful than its predecessors, the controls can be rebound without having to resort to AHK scripts, there are visual variations when vehicles have been in combat for a while, other smaller details that are interesting and that, surprisingly, try to offset that lack of immersion. I'm clueless as to why the devs have been deprioritizing the art department for so long when paradoxally working on those smaller details, like impact visuals on vehicles.

If you're not in for the art or the immersion and just for the gameplay, I guess this game is your game. But at this point, why not playing a spreadsheet game like Hearts of Iron 3?

Balance is a joke and im not going to play until the summer for the CHANCE that it might be good

This is the most unbalanced stupid piece of code ever created by human history. I do not recommend anyone to play this game unless you want to play for allies. Do not even attempt to go axis now. Absolutely unplayable, you just getting destroyed by any unit of the allies. Every ally unit feels like its 1 tier above any unit you have, even tho they're on the same power level according to game balance.

This game has developers that not only do not care at all about this game, they also have no clue how to balance games and all they done is created a f***ing mess.

Panzergrenadies have no way of winning any trade against any unit of allied forces. They lose to anything, the only exception is USF engineers. They can barely win this one. While they cost 300 manpower, have one of the most expensive upgrades that come to the game way too late to be viable cuz by this time you just getting constantly bombed with artillery.

This COH game is a joke.

Sorry I can't recommend this game primarily because of the constant overbalancing you never know what to expect also they'll sell you a DLC hipe it as the next powerful thing "its a heavy tank" then say its over powered and nerf it and set parameters so you'll never deploy it in the time a match last (why even add these units??? other than the money) their just no good at emulating war the original developers weren't that bad but these devs they got doing it now must work cheap and you get what you pay for, well I hope they didn't pay to much for their education. They like to change things in the game no one wanted or asked for and nerf things that are just stupid like 3 tanks can be blasting at a single squad of soldiers and do no damage but make craters all around and destroy the building near by there's no splash damage, mortar raining down on units do so little damage, tanks that see 5 feet into the fog of war its idiotic its not immersive. If you play against AI its terrible the only way they can make it seem like there's some sort of AI is let the AI cheat like extra accuracy extra resources most likely extra damage the AI will just charge in ignore all damage and just sweep you aside it just lazy and not fun or worth your time or money.

I really really liked CoH2. It had flaws, but it was overall a great game.

However, when CoH3 came out, I was very skeptical, so I decided to wait. My skepticism was correct, CoH3 released as a absolutely buggy piece of shit. Completely shameful that Relic thought it was ready for release.

So I waited. And waited. And waited. Now it's been 2 years after release, and the game was on 50% sale, so I figured I'd try it out.

Is it better than it was on release? Absolutely, it's far better now. The game quality is now what it *should* have been at release, 2 years ago.

However, Relic is completely incompetent at game balancing. There are so many stupid game mechanics and units, which destroy any potential fun. The game is far less balanced than CoH2, even though they've had 2 years to tweak the balance.

And the game is still buggy, I still end up losing games because of stupid bugs... machine guns not firing, incredibly stupid vehicle pathfinding, units glitching out...

Also keep in mind that the base game is $60, and you need to pay for the DLCs (which are mandatory, because they unlock powerful battlegroups). So in total you need to spend $116, which is outrageous.

It's obvious that Relic as a company is over, they are incapable of producing high quality games. All of the competent people left Relic years ago. They are a shell of their former self.

I cannot in good faith recommend this game, even if you are a Company of Heroes fan. Even on sale, it is still far too expensive for the quality that you get.

Honestly the battles are good, not a fan of the turn by turn maps the resource balance is stupid, i like to play it and keep coming back so says a lot

It's good, and we finally have the fabled WASD camera technology.

Negative reviews are mad because of overpriced DLC (fair) and PVP balance (skill issue).

Get it on sale.

ehh. its on sale for 30 you could do worse. Also i play with a lot of the community mods so I have no knowledge or care about the vanilla experience. I dont play PVP, just a comp stop after work and i drink whiskey and go to bed. its a living.

I personally don't care for PvP/MP and I'll be honest I've heard the exact same balance complaints all the way back in CoH1 days throughout the CoH2 days and now in CoH3. I understand if you feel CoH3 should have more content but what there is, is good.

The Afrikakorps campaign is a normal RTS campaign, its fine but thats it.

The Italy campaign on the other hand is the next step of the Ardennes Assault campaign, the best RTS campaign, it's great and I so wish we would get more stuff for it instead of only getting Skirmish/MP battlegroups.

Skirmish is fine, its the expected CoH gameplay, there honestly haven't been much changed throughout the games but thats fine since its good. The battlegroups are similar to CoH1, moreso than the CoH2 generals. I don't know what of the 3 systems is the best as I prefer the upgrade tree in the Italy campaign but I know that would be unfeasable for skirmish, which is also why I prefer Italy.

I'm happy with the game and while I wish campaign would be more popular so it also got some love I know I'm in the minority here.

I am really divided on this title, but I don't think I can recommend it. To make sure that's the right choice, I am going to do what I do when I can't decide on something - make a list.

Why I would recommend it:
- The moment to moment gameplay is fairly enjoyable, if not a bit too fast paced for me.
- The art style is unique for a game of this type. While I prefer more realistic art (like that of COH2) I appreciate that some balance was sought in the new art direction and it's grown on me a bit lately.
- The score is phenomenal. It's dramatic and cinematic, and really adds a lot of suspense and excitement to the game.
- There are plenty of game modes to choose from, including single player campaign, single player skirmish, multiplayer and custom games with friends.

Why I wouldn't recommend it:
- The developer offered battlegroups for free which it then turned around and put behind a paywall. Which means if you didn't get the game at the very beginning, you need to spend more money to get what others got for paying the same as you did for the base game. Either that or grind for MONTHS to buy it in the in game store. And that's only if you play with 0 mods or custom maps, see below.
- Speaking of grinding, the lack of challenge progress in all game modes is infuriating. You will get ZERO challenge progress if you play using a mod or tuning pack, and even if you just play a community made map. This is unacceptable. Players should be able to be rewarded no matter how they choose to play. We all spent money on the game, and all play in different ways. If you're going to reward people for playing on original maps, you should also reward them for playing on community maps.
- Speaking of maps - the stock maps for multiplayer/skirmish/custom game modes are underwhelming. COH2 had a much bigger and better selection of maps that catered to many different play styles. The maps in COH3 are all very similar to each other, with a few outliers. They soon become boring and not fun to play.
- Skirmish/Coop VS AI are often WAY too fast paced, with the default rules allowing for high resources from the start and all command points unlocked. There is no way to customize this experience without making the game consider itself "modded", thereby completely disabling any challenge progress as mentioned above.
- Adding friends through Steam doesn't work. You need to add them as a friend in the game first, then send them an invite through the game, which ultimately sends them an invite through Steam, which makes initially organising a game with friends frustrating.
- Not enough battlegroup variety and few perks and unlocks to choose for each. I have to compare this to COH2 again, which collectively had way more doctrines and options in each.

At the end of the day, if you're a die hard fan of COH, I suppose you could pick this up and get something out of it. But I'd only ever recommend it if you absolutely won't take no for an answer. In general I feel that this iteration is one in which Relic rested on its laurels and didn't really put in the same effort or attention it did in COH2. That, in my opinion, is the definitive experience of the franchise. Unless there are drastic changes, I can't in good faith recommend this game to a general audience.

This is my first review as I feel so let down by this game and I want to stop the next person, who like me, decides to give this game a chance.

I heard that the 2.0 patch fixed a lot of the problems that plagued its launch and gave it the benefit of the doubt. Let me start by saying this game has none of the magic that made COH 2 enjoyable. The commander selections are bland and incredibly limited. To get another commander you have to buy a $30+ DLC or wade through a river of excrement (shallow and infuriating game play). There's no intel bulletins. There's nothing of value to unlock in the shop with in game currency. Dark grey machine gun team.. are you kidding me? its a shell of the game that COH 2 is and they're asking a premium price. I was able to get it for $34 as part of the COH collection and i still feel ripped off. I wish I could go back in time and not buy it. I also had several periods within the 14 hours of play time where it would crash and hard lock my PC requiring a full reset.

Don't be an absolute moron like me and look past the mixed reviews. its a miracle that they are not negative as it probably should be.
Avoid this at all costs if you value your time, money and sanity.

Im back after the broken release, now I feel the game is complete, good job Relic.

it crap like they add dlc and half the tech trees are locket behind a pay wall wich is stupid and the camains are no fun and are just a slog gave up on both the italin one wich is pain full and is apsoltly stupid when it comes to the open world combat i hate it i am reggreting my perches which is sad as the eariler ones are both some my faorret game do not play

As someone who did not play the game until it was out for over a year because of how bad it launched, I can say that the game is pretty amazing now. Tons of replay value and exactly what you're looking for in a new Company of Heroes installment. Campaigns are fun but PVE skirmishes along with PVP are where the game really shines. Will be playing for many many more hours.

being a COH fan i really liked it a few mods for pop cap and unlock units this game turned out to be awesome , also the single player is addictive not sure why some comments are negative

Game has come a long way with the last few updates. Add on community support for workshop maps, tuning, etc. and the game is really solid.

Highly recommend using Advanced AI from the workshop if you play against AI.

I dont recommend this game unless you like getting spammed by endless infantry . This game is extremely unbalanced.
Tanks dont do crap against any infantry, Dont even pin them down. All the bullets miss.

releasing a good bit of single player content helped this game a lot. graphics and audio is much improved. i bought all 3 DLC and i do not regret it. the last one was worth the entire price just for the black dragon artillery barrage. i play almost every day.

The most rage inducing strategy game i have every played nothing beats whatching your mg team in a building lose to 1 squad because they shoot 3 bullets then switch window for no reason over and over or trying to salvage a vehicle with infantry where they will only do it if they approach from a certain angle other wise they stand there sniffing each others asses pretty sure i almost had 2 games today then had to take a break because i could hear the blood in my head

Sad to do this but no I don't recommend this to anyone out of principle. This isn't the Relic that got me hooked on RTS games anymore. From day one it lacked content. But besides that, the dlc is content that should just have been included from day one or at least be free updates. I was appalled to see that they think their dlc is worth buying at this point. The skins are the best joke of game cosmetics I've ever seen. "Dark Gray AT Crew," seriously? I might as well just start listing the laziness at this point. The voice acting is forgettable, the graphics somehow feel like a downgrade from COH 2, unit balance will never be achieved at this rate, the time between updates or new content is laughable, and I could go on. For an honest wallet assessment the game is worth picking up for maybe $30. Sadly Relic has slowly lost the plot on their RTS titles and don't have anything that sets them ahead of the competition at this point.

I don’t usually write reviews, but I felt like I had to drop one for this. 🙂

They’ve really turned this game around. When it first came out, I honestly wasn’t into it—it felt like a step back in a lot of ways, and the mechanics just didn’t click for me. But now? You can tell they’ve put real care and effort into it, and it shows.

I’m hooked again, just like I was with COH1 and COH2. After two years, it finally feels good to dive back in and really enjoy it!

I started playing this game recently and all the issues that plagued its launch seem to be fixed. The latest iteration of company of heroes is as fun as the others ive played. Highly recommend it for people who like rts game!

$60 reskin of CoH2 but much much worse.
Overpriced DLC that locks units behind a paywall is crazy. Way to sink a game franchise.

Honestly, after a couple of years, a host of updates and some DLC (that is a little expensive but can be worth it), this has turned out to be a pretty solid RTS......BUT (A VERY BIG BUT) there is no way I can recommend this game to others because the online community and overall player-base is so insanely toxic. I am talking like LoL levels of toxicity. Unless you have a couple of friends to play with, don't even bother with this.

You can get a solid 20-30 hours from the campaign before it gets kinda stale.
