Dunno if it is understandable. But sounds little bit disappointing.

The Ardennes....man so much possibilities and the possibilty to watch the scenario from both sides (US and German).

Commando-Operations (like Otto Skorzeny) heavy tank aussaults (Tigers etc) Band of Brothers tyle like holding the line with some paratroopers and foxholes while artillery is shaking the ground.

Fuel shortages, desperation attackings, broken morales, air superiority... Man so much stuff that would have been possible.

I'm not saying AA is good or bad. But why does anyone trust the big name reviewers anymore? It's like the big name news networks. Are there any "independent" review sites out there?

reviews are subjective. one reviewer may give the game a 10/10; another person may give the same game a 5/10. \

from what ive seen on romeo's stream the missions look quite fun and maps look great.
But where the game gets ruined for me is just the terrible AI. it will mindlessely sit in atgun fire, walk directly into machine gun emplacements from literally every angle and likes to garrison every house and then leave the building 1 second later.
It also looks pretty easy, I mean he beat a 4 division mission with just paratroopers.

Now we have times when level of difficulty means more, buffed, spam rather that just better AI.
It's sad but true. And it's not just CoH2.
Rather than reversing, repairing it's just mindless spam. And Panther shooting AT gun where there was M10 next to was just hilarious.

Well the best part is: you don't have to! :huh:

It is just for people who wants to glance quickly all released reviews.

For me (when watching Romeo stream) can say that missions are way too short, some mission objectives are retarded (like capture supplies to beat germans, good job) and AI is god damn terrible

Nigo, thanks for sharing my review! I'd love feedback from anyone interested in providing it - I'm always interested in constructive criticism.
