Your in-game profile, which is tied directly to Steam, will gain levels and as you level up you’ll be able to customize your army with different units, abilities, and even custom skins.Ĭompany of Heroes 2 brings the classic gameplay of the original game into the modern era. There are 366 Steam achievements, which is just absurd, but if you play often it’s nice to know there will always be something you haven’t done yet. No matter what your style of play is, there’s a ridiculous amount of achievement, unlocks, and progression to keep you in the game. It’s more of change than the Call of Duty series has every year, and people still play that like crazy. If you are a classic fan of the series and you’re only interested in the multi-player, it’s hard to say if you’ll find enough here invest in this if you already played the first. This time around there are all new maps and units, which is enough to make me want to play the same style of game. It plays out the same as in the first game, either with players fighting over control points or simply trying to demolish each other. It’s what gave the first game such a long life, and it’s just as solid in the sequel. There is a competitive multiplayer, of course. While right now all of the battles focus on the year 1941, Relic has stated that it plans on adding more content later. This mode is meant to provide more battles along the Eastern front that don’t tie in directly to the campaign.
All of these calculated decisions are heavy to deal with, and the game’s atmosphere and mechanics make sending every squad to the front lines a hard choice.Īlongside the campaign, there is the “Theater of War” mode which includes a series of co-op and single-player missions and scenarios. Even if they survive a fight, they can and often will die in the cold soon after. The cold weather adds to this dilemma of having to choose to lose expensive units, since having them out too long can cause them to freeze to death. Wounding a tank is ultimately more valuable than a squad of infantry.
“Do I have them run in and face certain death, or do I hold back and wait for a better opportunity?” Better opportunities don’t always come, and sometimes the only way to win the battle is to lose a fight.
I was always faced with some form of a choice with each unit.
