Company of Heroes - Still the best multiplayer RTS game ?

[Superman]

I say yes. No other game is like Company of Heroes. All new games are too casual or trying too much to different that it fails.
It's sad that no other game has such a good music, theme feel, and balance like Company of Heroes has. I love how every move can make the difference. It's not just like making big army and kill enemy. It's about stratregy. If you fail at first min then it could be GG already.

I miss that no other RTS is nothing like Company of heroes. What is your favorite multiplayer online RTS game?

Oh and Company of Heroes is more than 10 year old and graphics still looks so good.
If it is not your favorite RTS then can you at least tell that Company of Heroes is best World War 2 RTS game?

I have about 1100 hours in CoH2 lol

Couldn't even say the original CoH as I owned it both off and on Steam

I still think SC is easily more fun in terms of multiplayer RTS. And SC1 and 2 defintiely fits your description of what an RTS should do. I cant remember a match where turtling for a big army wins anymore besides the lowest brackets.

In coop terms i still think Dawn of War 2 survival nailed it out of the ball park in fun and balance.

Company of heroes isnt bad but there are defintie strats that out weigh everything else. Not to mention the most fun i had was the mode wherr both teams have AI pressing and it was 3 v 3 heroes in the mix

I realy enjoy COH2, currently 400 hours.
But a game like COH is not realy comparible with something like Age of empires or Eugens Wargame series. They are all great RTS games in their own way.

Nah. You are not free to experiment tactically, certain units and strategies are SO much better that you just do those, and blobs of certain kinds of infantry will wreck everything. It is also WAY too fast paced for my taste, you don't have time to do well thought out tactical decisions.

SC is too fast paced. Too much micro-managing IMO. Too competitive. Feels like a chore to play.
CoH also requires some micromanaging but I feel its not as bad as SC.
I enjoy CoH and also Supreme Commander Forged Alliance. There's more macro managing in FA and just see the grand scale of things come together.
