Considering DLC is only $3 each I believe the cheaper choice would be CoH2 DLC. Though I do not support the idea of DLC having a price tag for this game.

◾15 new single player skirmishes plus 25 reworked ones from the original Assault Squad

◾eight player co-op support and an all new multiplayer 8v8 game mode

◾65 multiplayer maps and five gamemodes

◾more than 250 vehicles at your command

◾more than 200 soldiers with unique equipment

◾five factions and various battlefields in Europe, Eastern Europe, Northern Africa and the Pacific

◾direct control every unit as if you were playing a 3rd person shooter

◾development tools such as 3d model exporter and map/mission editor, and much more.

I do find the whining about DLC a bit much. They provide the battle servers for you to play on FOR FREE!
No one is asking you to buy them ... I haven't.
People win without them.
If a good one pops up that peaks my interest ... I might throw them a bone ... It just might keep the battle servers free.

My only issue seems to be the name of commander/tactics. Not One Step Back Tatics, really? I know those words are suppose to be meaningful in a historical context, but the naming seems too literal.

Also, jesus people, remember +6 months ago how you complained that commanders were basically all the same, you wanted the commander system to be like in coh 1 "where every commander gave you a completely different playstyle" and you got these kind of commanders, be happy now. But no, now people complain that they break what COH is.

Commander #yolo reporting in.

Relic is a business. A business needs money to develop stuff. To develop stuff you need staff. To get staff you need money. Although I believe the way balancing is done right now is rubbish without DLC or Commanders Relic would have no money. By buying the DLC or commanders we ensure that Noun and pqumsieh have a job.

Just sayin'

Guys stop buying them. If you say you hate the DLC but you buy it anyway, you're part of the problem. Relic isn't a multi billion dollar empire like Rockstar or Activision/Blizzard, we can make a difference here if people weren't so fucking weak willed they sell out to get better spot on the ladder. If they want to sell singleplayer or aesthetic content like camos or alternate sound packs, fine. This multiplayer p2w needs to stop.

@NWF They don't deserve the DLC revenue, in the "real world" you get money when you provide a solid product, not because you're such a small company that people buy your shit out of pity. We are consumers, not investors.

I think it's more the idea of DLC like this throwing balance out rather than the price. I don't think anyone can legitimately argue that $3 is unreasonable for the content, it's more that this kind of DLC shouldn't exist.

Personally I don't care since I don't take the game seriously anymore, especially after seeing so much favour to historical accuracy vs gameplay options, something clicked and I realised I should be playing this game for fun rather than with a competitive mindset. I can still try to win, but the game is inherently not (competition) balanced by it's nature and probably never will be unless they radically change things.
