Which Company of Heroes is better 1 or 2?

[softwarebot]

Personally, I think COH2 is complete blasphemy but that's just me.

COH 2 improved many aspects of the first one, some people like it some dont.
personally prefer coh 1 the gameplay is more basic and simple, is more enjoyable.

i dont like the changes and balance they gave to to the second one, the factions feels kinda lackcluster at the end. also tanks are a factor early in game (sounds cool on paper) but is not.

Depends, I like the campaign from the first one, played out well and the opposing fronts expansion was pretty good. I like how you don't need to play multiplayer in order to have all the extra nonsense from COH. It would be great if COH 2 would have been more like the blitzkrieg mod and/or europe at war mod.
I did buy COH2 during the steam sale for cheap but sadly it feels like a waste of money still... So I guess the first one is BETTER!

COH2 - cartoon buildings and models, lame limited units, worse scroll out view than 1, and worst of all eye ball burning red, white, snow blinding horrible colour scheme/gradient/gamma. Relic should have continued dev of 1 and added more content. 2 is ok, but never taken to it like one and I've never come close to enjoying it like COH1.

Well said AdmV0rl0n!

Tried a Free Demo of Coh 2. Screwy as all get up and didn't even finish the demo as it was so lame in play. The graphics seemed a little sharper but the game had an over engineered feel to it. The TURKEY FOOT field of fire marker for unit sector of fire facings is poor if even that good.
I guess to myself. COH2 seemed as mentioned over engineered to the point of being an ARCADE Game and felt like playing FROGGER. COH is the only game I even have installed as well as the Steam version. Great solo play and Multi Player games get intense in combat as one would expect from a great war game. What the Original COH lacks in its Graphics. Apparently is made up for with its ease of play, contol and fire fight intensity. COH1 is definately the winner between the two games. Its a no brainer.

Guys, I played CoH 2 but never really played 1. Just want to ask what makes CoH1 "more fun" and why isn't 2 as fun as the 1st. I have both but only time to learn one of them. Please advise. thanks!

hahahaha enjoy your ban noob.


And to the OP :
COH 1 is way better.
COH 2 is just.. idk weird.

[WaitandSee]

Modding CoH1 is much easier, as you don't have to worry about all their little DLC files interfering, as CoH1 will have at most, 3 seperate structures, while from memory, CoH2 had like 12 expansions.

[Nota]

COH2 has infantry combat vastly improved. It has ten or more commanders for five factions, and boasts the line of sight blocker jazz. I like and play both. But I'd chose COH2 hands down no arguement.

The Demo is still on 1.0 patch and balancing. >.>

first stop those kiddy topics about coh1 vs coh2. it has been posted and reposted threw ages since coh2.
both games are old now and what makes their force is their updates, mods, competitive plays nd community.

fun is subjective. alot of coh 1 players cried because of the dlc. if i have to compare coh 2 have more pros than coh 1.

while coh2 got:
true sight, better lobby, bigger community, better gameplay (infantry climbing fences.. because this is not the case in coh1, capture points system is better), better balance, better UI (easier to see and select your units on the screen) more content, more details, more custom content (custom maps and skin available easily), better combat interaction (no more terminator iron cross soldiers or invincible veterancy 3 panther like in coh1)...

coh1 got only:
a better atmosphere, better looking graphics (even with less details than coh2 it got better overall graphics), better animation (tanks feel heavy unlike the toyish coh2 tanks), better effect (explosions and weapon fire are more beautifull)...

the thing is when you play coh 1 you are more in the game than when you play coh2. you 'feel' more the war in coh 1 than in coh 2.
and of course the main reason coh 1 is loved by some are its mods. there is lots of awesome mods that really add custom content into the game, new faction and new gameplay.

if i have to make ranks i'd say: coh1<<coh2<<coh2mods<coh1mods but thats personnal preference i guess.

I've just played a game 2v2 entirely ai (except me!) on COH1. I've got to say that it was the most enjoyable ai game I've ever played on either. The enemy played real smart and I had my work cut out to eventually win as the enemy ai seemed smarter than my ally. I was German v US. The battle lasted most of the evening as advantage swung back and forth. I've had long games on COH2, especially involving USF which seem to find it difficult to finally defeat the Germans, but this COH1 game wasn't a matter of balance, it was brilliant tactics by the enemy.
This is still a great game and I prefer the campaigns especially with the dlc. Some superb historical British campaigns too.
