Tanks, for instance, now have a separate side armor value apart from that of their front and rear, which opens up new tactical possibilities. This isn't to say vehicles aren't getting any love. Appropriate to the Italian theater in which much of it is set, you won't see matches quickly ramp up to giant tank battles that trivialize other elements of your roster.
But it definitely wasn't as universally beloved as the first, and I can understand why.įirst off, Company of Heroes 3 is mostly focused on infantry warfare. Company of Heroes 2 took a lot of chances, and for my part, I really enjoyed it – especially the excellent Ardennes Assault expansion.
When I first got a look at Company of Heroes 3, one of the first things Relic brought up was the decision to make the new game more like the original Company of Heroes than its sequel.
