Company of Heroes

I did a couple of searches there and I'm amazed that there isn't already a thread for this game. I've been playing it for a couple of days now and I'm quite liking it.

Was wondering if anyone else had tried out the multiplayer mode and fancied a game sometime.

Quote:
From the studio that brought you Homeworld and Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War comes the next revolution in action strategy.
Company of Heroes is a WW2 Real Time Strategy game that brings to life the journey of the brave men of Able Company as they fight across Europe in the greatest war mankind has ever known.
From the opening shots of the D-Day invasion of Normandy players will find themselves immersed in a rich single player campaign. Experience the cinematic intensity, courage, and bravery of the heroes that defined a generation, set against the backdrop of the most dynamic battlefield ever seen in a game.

Re: Company of Heroes.

I have just started to play this, had it for ages but was still finishing other games. It is great so far. Getting very hard now mind you.

Re: Company of Heroes

I beta tested it. I wasn't particularly impressed with it in it's late betas, but they might have improved it.

Re: Company of Heroes

See I am not a big fan of this type of game. But I do like this so far. You do need a good bit of time to play it mind. I love the gameplay so far, relly need to get yer thinking cap on.

Re: Company of Heroes

I'd be up for some multiplayer type shenanigans. Really quite like this game (although I still prefer dawn of war) but would have to wrestle it back from my little brother...

Re: Company of Heroes

I got the game going after three weeks of e mailing problems to the company. They had to register the game for me before it worked. A real pain to get it going but it is a good game now it is running.
