Hmm, haven't seen this posted, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29S_SaFn3YM It's the multiplayer trailer.
One thing that confuses me though is the speech, they said in a interview that the factions would speak their native language, but here they speak english ??? ???
Also found this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpfYelvLzKY IGN feature thingie.

I dont like this cartoonish graphics. Looks like a step back rather then advance, but maybe its just the early stages.

Oh, Panzerwerfers, StuGIII Ausf.E's and B-4 203mm Howitzers. I'm pleasantly surprised, and I got my Alpha key in an email today.

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
lack of balance is killing most ppl wish to play...
#139722
Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
Balance shouldn't be a concern at this stage, but that UserINterface, that buttons, so much information popping up, italic fonts, rounded Tank forms, grrr. These will stay I guess and will be like a cartoon.

Yeah, everything seems very... uh... bloated. The game is quite stylised, it remind me in some ways of Silent Storm. T-34 has the best line though... 'You can't out-smart bullet!'... straight out of TF2.

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
It is official, SEGA and Relic announced that the long awaited successor of Company of Heroes will be released on June 25 in both North America and Europe.

Well it could be possible that we could adapt the current worldbuilder for use with COH2. Or perhaps they will release it later (unrealistic expectations lol).

Thought they might go with a release that coincides with the beginning of Operation Barbarossa. Dat cheese.

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
Many people have forgotten one simple thing: Relics new owners is Sega.
And that video material is old. Many things could have happened!

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
The video is old, but the Gameranx article is new. And I don't think anybody has forgotten about Sega, not that the change matters anymore, Relic finished integrating with them last week.

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
Unfortunatly the lack of a worldbuilder, and the impression the guy gave in the interview basically said hands off its our game & our engine, any maps you get will come from us at a price. Its about what i expected tbh. Dont worry its not that impressive to play anyway from what i have seen. And apart from the 2048 textures and the added gimmicks of the ice and jumping over fences there really isnt that much more to see. Okay its pretty, but how many times have we all seen pretty & hype about how brilliant a game will be in the last 3 years on dozens of games, and all they have done is be played once or twice and been binned.
The fact that it only has a soviet campaign also smacks of DLC tbh, as they can then sell you a Axis campaign followed by an allied and commonwealth one. Then they can mess around selling you north Africa followed by japanese and the pacific, each one in turn deteriorating in legnth and quality as per usual. Walki summed it up just about right i think. Just a lisence to print money for themselves, they couldent get coho to make money so now they will force you to buy maps and vehicles ..... or be at a distinct disadvantage when you play.
I for one shall not buy it untill it has been proven to me in a dozen replays ive watched, and deffinatly not until they half the price :/ . For one game with only a one sided campaign, no matter how long the campaign is, it is not worth the money they are asking. Starcraft 2 i could understand as you had a choice of 6 factions, Each with a campaign. But to just play one faction in an rts games campaign, and then be expected to play online with the other faction, when they didnt even have the decency to give you even a short campaign for it is rediculous.

Are we forgetting that the original CoH only has 1 campaign also? A fairly good one at that.
And for all we know, with THQ's disappearance, we might not even get anything new for CoH2 at all now.
Star craft 2, six campaigns? You smoking pot, chum? THAT IS REDICULOUS.

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
We can only wait and see what happens with mods and worldbuilder. Sega seem like a reasonably competent publisher, hopefully any amount of monetisation will be minimal now Relic is securely funded enough to continue developing games. If recent gaming debacles have taught developers and publishers anything, hell hath no fury like a pissed off fanbase. Besides a game being a buggy and broken mess, there's nothing fans hate more than the inability to create custom content and integrated virtual begging (aka, microtransactions).

#143602
Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
It is like what I have been suspecting for a long time: it is essentially this mod recycled with better graphics. And then there is the addition of stuff I really don't like, with the ice and the fact that your men can freeze to death. I understand that it may be realistic but come on, we are playing a computer game here.

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
Hugs all.
"Exceed the EasternFront" ? :p ... Sounds disrespectful, doesn't it?
I love the mod you guys made. Looking forward to Ostherr and Campaign ;)
Still want/need COH2 though ;)
Completely agree to what a lot of you said.
No worldbuilder... well, it's their new child. It's understandable. It will come in time.
COH1 didn't have a worldbuilder for awhile.
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity
#143643
Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
There was 2 months difference between the initial CoH release and Worldbuilder being patched in. If they're that swift this time around, I'll eat my own farts.

I haven't seen anything about this in the fourms, but there is a date revealed for the closed beta for CoH2.

Although in other sites says it starts in April 25. I guess we will know it soon :P.

Re: THQ will develop a new Company of Heroes game
I'm really disapointed at how they made the soviet's in COH-2, they feel like a copy of the Americans from COH-1, except worse. Lets just say more than half of the soviet tanks half trouble penetrating the REAR armor of the german ones, and the IS2 and ISU-152 are just a disappointment :(
