my advice is to avoid the PVP like the plague but the campaign is easily the most fun i've ever had on a strategy game before. the skirmishes were also really fun too. great game also if you're wondering if the DLC is worth it or not, play the base game german campaign. if you liked it, then yes 100% the DLC is worth it. i own all of the DLC and i have almost 900 hours
I would say PVP with friends is fun, if you're referring to public PVP then yeah, the few times I've played in public in these types of games its just been me being curb stomped.
I've beaten all story missions and i own every dlc, this game is just a big sandbox with the dlcs, but the vanilla part is just as good, if you're wanting the best ww2 RTS game out there, call to arms ostfront is for you
i'm still stuck on the very last finnish mission and most of the soviet missions. the finnish mission because it is SO fucking hard (on heroic anyway) and the soviet ones because it's the weakest campaign imo. strongest campaign was definitely the german one, the last stand missions toward the end as the war becomes hopeless were really really fun and engaging. US campaign also deserves and honourable mention i really enjoyed that one too
I really just want a game that merges Arma 3 with Gates of Hell. Take Arma 3's UI and gameplay and pair it with GoH's AI and sheer amount of content and... Boom. Oh, and Arma's maps are preferable. Of course.
Comparing it to toy soldiers is pretty accurate. That's exactly the feeling I get when playing GoH. Like playing with little green soldier figures and tanks out in the dirt
This Game is a Awesome RTS, My favorite(I have over 70). A very Steep Learning curve. If You like RTS Games like "Company of Hero's", think Twice before Buying GoH, maybe think again. Nice Vid.
@@javajohnny7759 It can't be copyrighted, that's a (very) common myth. The Red Cross' "copyright" of the symbol(s) is unenforceable in court. So the reason you don't see it in games anymore is because no developer wants to spend the millions of dollars in international courts just to have a red cross in their video game.
I also got the idea that this feel like playing green army men, lol. I do still take issue with the jank tho. I regularly have some complete BS happen, and it's often something towing related. The most extreme example: I ordered a tankette to tow a gun to the front for defense and after it almost made the trip it *disappeared* and reappeared at spawn together with the gun. I was shocked that this is even possible... I really want to love this game but I wish it wasn't such a janky bugfest. Also, as someone who played the CoH series quite a bit, both have a couple similarities with GoH (and MoW in general) like focus on positioning, similar unit types, destructive environment but I think that's about it. CoH has no inventory system and things like AT grenades are just abilities that certain troops have. Unit health is way more arcadey, and in CoH you have to tech up your base like in traditional RTS games. Also you have 3 different resources (manpower, munitions and fuel), as opposed to GoH that essentially only has manpower. Lastly, CoH is very PvP focused and it's way easier to get into than GoH, with tons of guides, replays and matchmaking.
