I feel like an absolute idiot since I paid for this and paid the 'premium' version only to get some shitty skins, (some might like them but eh) I feel so dumb for hoping that due to Relic and Sega involving the community heavily during development (COHDevelopment) that they would actually listen to the feedback. See you all in 5 years when we will finally have The COH3 fully launched and then we can complain how there is an allied bias and they are op. I can't comment on the campaigns as I haven't touched them yet, and I'm not going to until I stop hearing about how bugged they are.įellas its 2023, the years of games releasing finished are sadly over, COH3 is still in early beta. I'd give the 2D art in this game - menus, interface, portraits, ability/unit icons - about a 4/10, with the 3D and animation stuff being nearer an 8/10. It genuinely looks like the wrong game branch was merged into the live build, with the 'content' being from the launch version and the 'art' being from an older alpha build that had been merged by mistake. It needs a complete art pass, and it may even be worth subcontracting another studio to just re-do everything properly. I think CoH3 has the worst 2D and UI artwork of any Relic game I've ever played. Other users have listed these elsewhere so I won't do so again here, but obviously I'm talking about things like replay mode, observer mode, functional mod tools, hotjoining, proper ladders, proper lobbies, etc. The unit portraits are bad, the icons are mostly ripped from CoH2, and the lack of any number of features present in CoH2 is pretty outrageous. However, it's let down by an antiquated, bland UI and awful 2D GFX that look like something ripped from a 2005 game. This is by far the smoothest, best-performing Relic game I've ever played at launch. The factions are reasonably well-designed and offer lots of interesting options, performance is fantastic, GFX and sound are pretty good for the most part, and I've had no connection issues or CTDs.

CoH3 is a solid game and by far the best CoH at launch.

Which is better company of heros 1 or 2
