What I find very unsatisfying in coh2 is that you have to change the faction every few games or it gets boring.
The only change to that is when there is a new patch and the "flavor of the month" meta changes...
This game could be soooo much better if relic would have decided to carry a few things over from coh1. Especialy the commandersystem and the teching.
Just imagine the good things of both games thrown into 1 .
I mean "true sight" + cover system + sniper from coh2 multiplyed with Doctrin/commander/teching/side armor from coh1.
Remember the coh1 demo? I spent countless hours just on that. playing vs the cpu on that single map sucked me ( and many others) into coh1.
Later when I played coh1 there was never that "unit X is meta of the month"-feeling.
Sure there were times when some units were the "got to get that"-thing, but it was never as bad as in coh2.
Well, I even made a mappack for coh1. I never did something like that for any other game.
Why? Because relic changes (overbuffs/overnerfs) so much with every patch and because of the dlc-cancer they are giving us...
Yes I know the standard factions/commanders are good or atleast not that bad - but it still gives me a bad feeling that not every player has access to the same tools.
Pls don´t give me that "you can get commanders through warspoils" -Warspoils are just Kuhdung.
right, the meta of the decade was snipers
