Fun fact: Its by far the worst game from the series and also the main reason why Relic is in a pile of shit right now. Yeah this is what happens when u dont listen to community.
I've played thousands of hours of the COH and AOE franchises and love both. To sum up the difference, AOE is for people who love to macro and enjoy a little micro, and COH is for people who are too lazy to macro and LOVE to micro.
One big difference is that COH is less prone to build order canned strat. In AOE4, vs some BO if you don't instantly do the exact counter-build order it's gg. AOE4 needs a lot of knowledge to know what your opponent doing. Developers like to make it even more difficult by changing every season the balance of all civilizations
Well this game is set in Italy and North Africa so it makes sense that the Soviets aren’t in the game yet. And sega is a Japanese company so the chances of a Japanese faction is low but I would still love a pacific front
The main differences for me outside of setting are that COH is a decent stab at a tactical simulation while AOE is its own beast with nods to flavour. It's not "best simulation ever" but it has a lot of good feels which is worth something to some people. (Like me but Steel Division has more & I moved on). COH is also an out & out wargame with economy being dictated by how much land you have conquered in your war. If you like base building, defences and macro it is very much not for you. If you only like fighting it may be. I suspect it has a lower skill cap too oh and RNG (see stab at simulation).
not even sure if COH3 is better then COH2 or 1. I still prefer COH1 over 2, not to mention 3, which is plagued by bugs and released in an unifinished state.
Recommend coh 2. Coh 3 is a massive downgrade to it and has a player base of 9.000 online players, a beautiful soundtrack, great gameplay physics and graphics. Have fun.
Following the dow3 ans aoe4 disasters, it's relic's last chance to redeem itself in the rts field. They are lucky that they have this chance working on the best rts franchise
1. Decade old graphics and ugly art style 2. Very buggy all over from graphics to game play 3. Absolutely horrific UI, and it takes most of the screen AND its not SCALABLE as it was in the previous COH2. I looks like something from a mobile game. Something unfinished. 4. Sound is mediocre at best. It doesn't matter if this is just released. This game is charging £50 (£70 for digital prem) and is advertising itself as triple AAA. All criticism is valid criticism. It will likely still say the same six months from now. Live service games are a disaster and Company of Heroes being in the same boat as Dawn of War 3 puts absolutely no lessons learned inward. They expect full price? We expect full-high expectations. This game is worth £20 / £25 at this rate.
imagine being so stupid to not use key-selling sites for any game on steam! got coh3 for 37€, other games that are like 10€ I get for 3€! clueless people…
Thanks for the video. This was great, CoH looks complex, but you really made it easier to understand 🔥

Not really true any more. COH 3 now is excellent

Ouch!
it looks like i don't have to learn the opening build order to start the match there, this is so cool )
What a cute cat you have exploring in the background. Nice video mr fitzbro

CoH 2 was legendary. Shame no Soviets or Japanese factions yet though.

I bet over the months/years, more factions will be added maybe in DLC
Good to see AOE players playing this game...
another note : if youre good in sc2 / wc3 / aoe , that doesnt mean u gonna be good in COH ..its a very very different game
I love COH 3 than AOE 4
the perfect breakdown really. This was precisely how I wanted to learn about this new game.
This is a whole other type of rts game from what I'm used to in AOE. Micro-ing seems like a bigger deal then in AOE4
I wish relic finally decide to make Coh in modern times so much potential there
Check out "Call to Arms"
Great video Fitzbro! thank u!

Your promo code doesnt apply at check out and Steam doesnt have a promo code field option so what gives?
My two favorite games in one video
Ty for the vid! Ill stick wie AoE because I like the setting better and its in gamepass. But to anyone dipping into CoH hf and gl :)
it is hard game, I can't handle it .. :(
When I first played the beta, I went an entire day without winning a single 1v1 😂Hang in there friend!
World War Armies: WW2 PvP RTS is a very similar mobile game
not even sure if COH3 is better then COH2 or 1. I still prefer COH1 over 2, not to mention 3, which is plagued by bugs and released in an unifinished state.
never played CoH before.. This one looks interesting :)
Recommend coh 2. Coh 3 is a massive downgrade to it and has a player base of 9.000 online players, a beautiful soundtrack, great gameplay physics and graphics. Have fun.
coh 2 was much worse at release
@@hth54 exactly, COH1 and 2 are so much better. 3 is unfinished and a cut down version of 2.
Having a such bad camera angle in RTS is just a crime!
You don't seem to know what you are talking about:(
Great video, I hope you play more. 👍
looks more intresting than AOE4

how is this game in the same boat as DOW3 except for it being made by Relic? DOW3 wasn't fun this game is lol
Copy paste from steam review.
Good job!

clueless people…
@@edsalmon6319 yeh its so fun so its already played by 3x times less people than CoH2 which is 10 years old ... Haha so fun to play
Not worth the money. Wait until the sale that will be in 3 to 6 months, dont be a sucker.
or don‘t be stupid and buy on key-selling sites for almost half the price!
