Company of Heroes was an outstanding release, and its sequel is a good game with a still living, active community.
Company of Heroes 3 was recently announced, and its launch will probably get a lot of old players back into the multiplayer lobbies.

- throwaway17_17 5y agoThe CoH games are great small army RTS games, even if I think of them as Real Time Tactics games. But that really is the point for me. It seems that with the aging and seeming non-interest in RTS games like Starcraft, the market and those making products to serve that market have splintered a relatively homogeneous genre into a group of loosely similar niche genres where the differences between themselves and other games is seen as a dividing line instead of focusing on the commonalities involved to grow interest and increase player base amongst the larger game segment. I see Warhammer 40k and Starcraft having much more in common with each other than either has with Halo, despite the very obvious surface level trappings. And I think X-com has more in common with CoH than either have in common with modern warfare or call of duty. I really despair for a broader grouping of strategy and tactics games, that may or may not exclude 4x games, in hopes that it could build a bridge between the various niche styles and cross promote the bigger genre.
