It takes the WWII setting and applies it to the kinds of game-related stuff we want to see and do. It’s a game about superior use of tactics and terrain, not overwhelming firepower. In short, it’s an excellent strategy game.

Company of Heroes seizes the bloated WWII genre by its tail and wags until years of excess bunkum sloughs off -- what's left is lean, mean, and a triumph for company-level tactics. The more you dig in, the more it gives back, and the less you care that it's another bout of Allied vs. Axis action.

After 40 hours and 18 minutes of intense tactical warfare, Company of Heroes stands as the definitive World War II RTS experience. It is a masterpiece that completely redefined expectations for the genre. Completing all six campaigns and earning every single medal was a challenge of patience, strategy, and execution, but one that felt incredibly rewarding. The Good Tactical Depth: It's not just about building the biggest army. It's about positioning, cover, flanking, and using the right tool for the job. A single well-placed machine gun or AT gun can hold off an entire advance. Atmosphere: The sound design is phenomenal. The chatter of soldiers, the terrifying screech of incoming artillery, and the roar of tank engines create an immersive battlefield. Destructible Environments: seeing a quiet French town turned into rubble over the course of a battle isn't just a visual effect; it changes the gameplay dynamic, creating new cover and lines of sight. Campaign Variety: The three factions (US, Panzer Elite, British) play distinctly differently. The defensive nature of the British, the mobility of the Panzer Elite, and the versatility of the Americans kept the gameplay fresh across 41 missions. The Bad Pathfinding: occasionally, units (especially tanks) would get stuck or take questionable routes, requiring ****: While it holds up beautifully, some older campaign scripts can be slightly buggy, though nothing game-breaking. Final Thoughts Company of Heroes proves that RTS games can have cinematic storytelling and deep, meaningful choices. It perfectly balances macro-management (resources/bases) with micro-management (squad tactics). For anyone who appreciates strategy, history, or just excellent game design, this is an absolute must-play. Earning 100% completion wasn't a grind—it was a privilege. Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (Legendary Artifact)

The learning curve in this title may put some people off, certainly later in the missions, but there is enough to make the game enjoyable to green strategists while the veterans will find these same late missions give them something to think about.

Simply an awesome game that really takes the WWII RTS to a new standard. Just make sure you have a nice machine to run the game.

With all the World War II games out there, it is hard to stand apart from the crowd and make a game that people will notice, play and talk to their friends about. Company of Heroes is one of those rare treasures.

Company of Heroes reinvigorates the sub-genre of the World War II real-time strategy game, and its confidence in its own excellence is aptly demonstrated in the very first few minutes of play.

Not surprisingly, some liberties were taken to reconcile logistics with gameplay. Call in the airborne and your paratroopers arrive immediately, with no need to plan the air drop in advance. But that is where the suspension of disbelief ends.

Malgré le temps qui passe, la Compagnie des Héros est resté tout-à-fait présentable et souvent spectaculaire... ce n'est pas le plus beau des STR mais il reste incontestablement bien fait (en dépit de textures très... vieillissantes) avec en prime une VF agréable et une ambiance qui vous replonge dans l'enfer du débarquement, puis de la bataille de Normandie... En outre, son interface est dans l'ensemble assez claire... mais montre néanmoins ses limites lorsque c'est un peu (trop) le bordel. Son plus gros problème réside dans ses pics de difficulté assez incompréhensibles... c'est parfois une promenade de santé et l'instant d'après un putain d'enfer extrêmement laborieux... et pénible ! Notamment, cette mission où l'on a en tout et pour tout que 3 ou 4 blindés (et il faudra faire avec puisqu'on ne peut pas en fabriquer ni en faire venir en renfort) et juste une caserne pour fabriquer de la chair à canon... et c'est tout ! Pendant ce temps, l'ennemi ne cesse d'envoyer des troupes et des panzers dans tous les sens... et même en capturant des "****" etc, les ressources manquent encore beaucoup trop... bref, c'est du foutage de gueule ! quel dommage, car je trouvais ça assez amusant... mais ils ont décidément tout gâché, ces connards ! rompez, demi-tour gauche, direction la poubelle, en avant... marche !
