If you’re reading this we’re guessing you’re into games. And, as we’re all making our way through this lockdown, that includes plugging in and loading up your favourite games. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Ukie, the trade body for the UK’s games and interactive entertainment industry, to help you put some order around your day and tackle everything in the best way possible. With news coming in from all directions, it can be easy to feel out of control or uncertain. You won't ramp up to heavy vehicles quite so fast, and they've done away with features like harsh weather being able to sap the health of your troops – though they did mention that the harsh conditions in North Africa might play some kind of different role.The world is on pause at the moment and we’re living through strange and unprecedented times. Old school RTS base building is making a return in Company of Heroes 3, and overall it's a more infantry-focused game. Overall, Relic considers the first Company of Heroes to be the "Gold Standard" of the series and has taken into account a lot of feedback on its divisive sequel. But for those who like the scorched earth method, a new destruction system will see churches and villas disintegrate and topple dynamically with realistic physics and sound. This puts a lot more focus on infantry, enables some early game aggression against fortified positions, and stops battles from bogging down into a stalemate that can only be broken with tanks and heavy artillery. Tactical Pause lets me really orchestrate things in a satisfying way.īreaching is another significant change to the RTS gameplay, which allows an infantry squad to kick down the door of an occupied structure and massacre or kick out any units garrisoning it.
Late into a match of CoH 2, I often found that there was really too much going on for me to be able to pay attention to everything and make good decisions on the fly, so I'd end up abandoning some control points simply so I could focus on others. While Relic is billing this as a way to ease new players into the experience, even as an RTS veteran, I find it really refreshing. In single player, Company of Heroes 3 is introducing a new Tactical Pause system that lets you freeze the battle and cue up orders for all of your units, before hitting resume to let them play out. The campaign is guided by a character-driven story that involves local partisan fighters for the first time, and comes together as a mix of more traditional RTS missions and scripted set pieces like Avelino and Monte Cassino. In addition to being able to cut off enemy supplies by capturing territory, you can take airfields to gain close air support in RTS missions (or deny it to your enemies), bombard enemy positions with offshore warships, and fight auto-resolved skirmishes with smaller units called detachments, which play a supporting role to full-fledged companies.
