No thanks..I'm going to wait a few months, and get it when its free.
if THQ were still running the show i'd expect more "fire sale" prices.
actually, i highly suspect the THQ brand will be long gone by the time CoH2 comes out.
and with it its reputation for steep discounts early in the product cycle.
therefore, it'll be very interesting to see how long the new owner of the CoH2 franchise chooses to keep it at full price... but to automatically assume they'll follow THQ's stupid low pricing is incorrect.. they might... but i doubt it.
Hmm where? xD
sry mang..
here it is

Starcraft 2's expansion is due out the same time and will only be $40. There is no way COH2 can compete. Who ever owns it will have to reduce the price to move the product.
Even tho I'm a big C&C fan..starcraft is THE RTS game and it will STEAMroll COH2 into another Humble Bundle.

I wish I didn't have to be all Nancy Negative about it, but yeah.

How is CoH even competing with SC? They are on completely different levels. Sales might be affected but it is not like everyone will go "HoTS or CoH2? I cant choose!" I think the fanbases are seperated to a great extent.
i play both games... and i used to play Starcraft64.
Judging by the number of people on various fan sites and their opinions of both franchises we can say that there is a degree of competition between these titles in north america, western Europe and eastern Europe.
i spent a lot more cash on my SC stuff than my CoH stuff.
Its clear that countries in the far east only play Starcraft though.
People have limited budgets and will only spend so much money on entertainment options so they make decisions that way. To that extent it is a choice.
I made a choice when I elected to spend more money on Starcraft and Starcraft64 than on CoH.

I'm afraid it will have a lower standard though, that's why i'm not pre ordering. I'm not feeling any excitement when it comes to COH2, fear for a worse game dominates. I've always been sceptical and towards release i'm being it more and more. For me it's a wait and see.

True that! I was thinking the exact same thing in my head as I got to your post 12ocky. From what I've seen of CoH2, I think that the biggest problem doesn't lie in numbers of people who play CoH2 over SC2, moreover, are relic making a game thats worse than the last one. From what I've seen so far I'm worrying they're Are. I really hope I'm wrong, and I end up loving the game. But that I'm concerned.

+1. $60 (or even $48) is a lot of money and I don't really want to risk it - Tales of Valor was awful and I'm happy I didn't buy it, and I'm also happy I waited for Opposing Fronts to go on sale before buying it. I hope CoH 2 is the best RTS since CoH but I can't just assume it will be and I don't want to dump money into it before getting some sort of assurances that it's not going to be British trenches and T-17 spam and The Scheldt or anything like that.

But I'm more concerned about the game in terms of mechanics. I don't know what it is exactly but it appears that something has changed in the way the game plays. It looks sluggish and boring. Thats what concerns me the most. I'm afraid that the gameplay will be 'safe' and the dynamics of the original missing.

As a developer, obviously I would like you to take a leap of faith and pre-order, but as a gamer I can completely understand that games are expensive nowadays (though I remember spending $80 on NES games back in the early 90s) and you want to make sure you get your best bang for your buck.
Though I can say we have no trenches, no T-17s and I again apologize for the Scheldt It was meant to be a comp-stomp map, not an automatch map.

That said, the ingredients for a great game should all be there. vCOH US vs Wehr is one of the best matchups ever, if CoH2 can at least come close in quality, it will be great.
