THE INVASION OF ITALY BEGINS! Company of Heroes 3 - Italian Campaign #1 

Yeah, I thought he was a Sargent though

He was, this campaign is a year before the original game. He likely got promoted in the mean time

That's all fine and well but is Conrad still struggling with his laces?

@@kaiserjoe2316 “jesus conrad tie up your fcking laces.” Lol one of my fav lines

@@rxstumpy those characters somehow got transferred to normandy lol

Ah that’s awesome!! :)

That's really cool! And I'm playing it myself atm but have failed a few times already rofl

If you could give me 1 place to look to get into voice acting where would it be? I'm in the uk.

this is one of those situations where gameplay absolutely should overrule realism. the game would be unplayable if a single shot killed a man in a unit

Cod ain’t realistic lmao 😂

Thanks!

@@lionheartx10 I literally used to watch your total war videos all 57 of them like it was tv I’d come home from school make me food and watch hour long battles haha

@@DALONEWOLF108 Glad you've enjoyed my content for so long!! Which has been your favourite Campaign?

@@lionheartx10 the total war 2 Spartan campaigns I’m a basic bitch but I just loved those especially since I loved Greek culture and mythology a lot

lol

Part 2 out later today!

i assume youre not a coh2 and coh veteran im not either but my friends are and they rightfully hate it bc in 10 years barely anything was improved

Wasn't the game out like 3 days ago

@@biffbidderman8164 I meant the franchise, we played the first one

​@@biffbidderman8164 this guy

I dunno early days I think if they can work on improving the campaign in future updates that will bring about a better game overall

@@lionheartx10 yeah hopefully great gameplay by the way.

Didn’t need to

You play as the Germans in the North African campaign

They do but it's quite rare if you think about sure they have MG42s and captured weapons too

@@jonathontyynismaa5310, they did not have HMG’s. When referring to HMG’s om the german side, it’s often an MG42 on a small mount, but it’s still only an lmg.

except they don't let you fight any battles in the campaign...

@@Audifaram Case in point. If you literally spend the ten minutes and get past the tutorial, you can fight every single battle that you want to fight to your hearts content. Zoomers man. Absolute idiots, with literally zero patience.

@@Drax514 we just watched a 50 minute video. Don't know we're you get your ten minutes from

@@Audifaram the whole campaign? or just the tutorial

@@Audifaram And I'm literally playing the game right now, fighting multiple battles per turn, CHOOSING to fight them rather than autoresolve. So yeah, everybody here is just retarded as fuck apparently

Unit models and general textures are better in COH3 I think its the particle effects in 3 that don't look as good or rather are similar to 2's.

Classic rts camera level, we’re used to much great zoom levels in newer rts games. I’m surprised they didn’t decide increases the levels for this game.

yep!

I’ve only played 2-3hrs so far. Need a good few more before I can give a solid recommendation one way or another tbh. I’m enjoying it but it does seem like they’ve kept things quite safe with this title and not really innovated much aside from the campaign map. Whether playing it safe and giving bud more of the same is a bad thing I think will be a highly personal decision.

No desire to replay xcom 2 again just yet, wasn’t too much interest in the last series I did of it so unlikely for me to do another too. Maybe if / when there’s an Xcom3

pausing is in every RTS game, hit escape to bring up a menu, the game will pause in 99% of RTS games :P And most have an actual pause feature too. If you could ONLY exclusively give orders in Pause mode then sure it would make calling it an RTS questionable but the faction that you can play the whole game without pause and that it is just that, an option (to pause) doesn't change that this IS an RTS :P

@@lionheartx10 I see what you are saying, but add in Turn based over map and you no longer have a clear cut RTS. You have a game with an identy crisis. Just like when Relic added MOBA elements to DOW3. What they would be better doing( and this is just my opinion) is making an RTS game and not shoehorning in other popular elements to sway other players to the IP.

@@thejunsk I don’t think adding the turn based campaign is a detriment to COH3 being an RTS. It’s now an RTS with a turn based campaign, a great and much needed addition to innovate the frankly previously stale formula. DOW Dark Crusader did a good job of campaign and battles so why not COH. Plus SEGAs other core Strategy series, Total War has long since thrives on the combination of RTS battles and turn based campaign. DOW3 (doesn’t exist 🙃) but yes agreed the MOBA Elements were unneeded and negatively effected the title but I don’t think that’s what the mix of RTS and Turn Based Campaign does here for COH. While not a perfect implementation it’s definitely a positive for the series!

@@thejunskWorks fine with the Total War games that are considered both turn based on world map and real time on battle map. What's the issue?

???

They’re definitely improved from 2006, more like 2016 but still far from the cutting edge of what can be achieved in a modern rts graphically at least.

Graphics and art style don’t bother me too much tbh, the models themselves have decent levels of detail. I am disappointed by the UI choice, while it was fine / the common style in the early 2000s for rts games. We’ve seen numerous rts games innovate their UIs to sleek and minimal designs, ones that don’t take up 1/4 of the screen space. Yeah I was also disappointed that it’s not scalable too! Can’t say I’ve ever seen / player an actual mobile game with UIs like this, find the mobile argument a weak jab tbh. Think overall Relic have gone for playing COH3 way to safe as they know it’ll appeal to fans of the original 2 games style and design however it’ll make a lot of new players bounce right off and some returning fans that rightly so expected more after all these years. That said the campaign map for its first iteration is a solid entry and a great addition to the formula as is tactical pause which can lead to some very satisfying combat manoeuvres!
