Completely hyped game

User Rating: 6.1 | Company of Heroes PC
Company of Heroes is literally one of the most overhyped games ever.

Good things: The graphics for the game are beautiful. Shrapnel flying, dust kicking, artillery barrages. It adds realism for that. It also has incredibly warlike sounds. Graphics lover's wetdream. If your rig can handle this game then you'll probably be astounded.

Bad things: Low replay value. If you make 2 factions in a videogame for realism the least you could do is add more units. It's incredibly boring after you finish the campaign and multiplayer alone entertains you for about 1 hour before you quit mainly because theres too little to enjoy or play. The gameplay isn't that good either. Somethings in the game are imbalanced or underpowered. . Bad things(Realism issues): Sure you can make a game realistic but not to the point where everything costs money that's plain annoying. Why do I have to spend 100 ammo points just so I can get 3 thompson machine guns? Why the heck do i have to spend ammo for a grenade toss. Is there a special reason why you have useless powers that cost overloads of resources. How come units hidden in buildings get killed faster than out in the open? The nerbelwerfer artillery is suppose to be on the most valuable weapons in WW2 but it seems it can't even take out a small squad of infrantry out in the open. For some reason my 5 men rifle squad can't even take out 2 german engineers. Veterancy and upgrades for your infrantry is complete bogus. My completely veteraned german volksgrenadier squad can't take out a machine gun nest even though they are supposed to be experienced.(They were in cover and flanking the mg nest). Why is the AT rifle capable of killing my infantry and why is the blast radius so big? It's piercing caliber ammo.

The game itself isn't that good if you cut it open. Most people just get lost in the clever graphics, sound, and hype.
