Company of Heroes Online Primer

[Sep 02, 2009, 1:21 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Company of Heroes Website offers a detailed introduction to Company of Heroes Online, which is operating in China, but it seems pretty apparent Relic is eager for western audiences to try the online version of their World War II RTS game as well. They describe the microtransaction-based business model of the free to download and play game and outline differences between CoHO and its more traditional counterparts, including the role of the Company Commander, experience and progression, items, hero squads, and more. They conclude with this overview: "We already have a really fun game in Company of Heroes to use as our base for Company of Heroes Online. This is a very brief look at what’s new and different in COHO. If you’ve played Company of Heroes before, you’ll find yourself at home when you’re deploying your MG42s and Riflemen, but there are also some new facets to this game, such as specializing your Commander abilities and hero squads, that add further to the strategic experience."
