shok troops at 0 CP, sure--> no capping power
Kv1 crap
only 1 shoot howitzer, only good agaisnt enemy howitzer or pak43- crap
for the mother russia, why not orraaah?- crap
forward HQ + booby trap, maybe good but that rest of 3 ability is crap so that commander--> sh it

german commanders: Ostruppen Doctrine pretty good, it can be easily spammed, i wonder why dont they put rapid ostruption with it then it would be total OP commander .

Have a look at the size of infantry in both games, in vcoh they are tiny and you get to see a much larger portion of the map. In coh 2 it seems like you are looking through a keyhole, this really frustrates and stops a lot of possible attack avenues.

Im not talking about the balance issues - they can and will be ironed out, Im talking about how the game works/feels to play. The input from vcoh was so fast and crisp that you could get your guys to do anything you wanted basically any time in coh2 its so sluggish even with the fix.

Like KingAnj said the retreat button in vcoh was like a tactical choice which your men followed near instantly , sure there was times they got wiped out but thats part of the game, in coh2 they sometimes sit there fore 3-5 seconds milling about.

For anyone who doubts it please watch that video the game is a bit one sided but it shows you everything you need to know. Look how beautifully and fluidly the infantry move around and follow commands, space out and bunch up when needed, look at the fantastic physics which effects everything in the game ( at one point a rocket even flies through a hole in the side of the enemies HQ and kills some pios on the other side) as a side note look how great the effects look.

Now ifyou are going to make a sequel to a game why change the basic mechanics of the game for worse? Why make the bread and butter of the game inferior to the first game?

I mean coh2 has some awesome stuff and in many cases it is much better but why make the units move so poorly and slowly, delay their reactions and change the perspective size / ratio to make it into a completely different game style?

to master a faction, you'll have to play both, 120mm mortar is the only thing remain in soviet arsenal which could do something terrible, PZIV can't fight a SU-85 head on of cuz, but the PanzerShreck in COH2 is far more accurate from what is was in vCOH, and you can get a Tiger or Elefant especially you play 2v2, your team must have a elefant+spotter scope on the field, the rest of the thing is just pure rape, try to save resources when you hit 4CP and get the elefant as soon as you reach 5 CP.
