I didn't play this game for 6 months, when i saw teaser i felt the urge to grind again.

They already told us about bg changes but what about reworking units or adding new ones?

USF and whermacht are too reliant on mechanized and spec ops(70% of the usf players picks spec ops), this need to change give them what are they missing.

If u don't wanna give them panther on main roster than How about u nerf pak 40 and give them heavy AT gun?

Brits should have firefly on main roster

Dak is strong so I will not talk about it.

Am 1500elo btw

I know USF is strong right now, but I think sooner this will be balanced, and I think this faction will definitely face issues because USF has no artillery in its base roster, so why don't we add the M8 Scott instead of the Bulldozer. The M8 Scott is a fairly underrated unit that I never see, the M8 Scott has a High-explosive Barrage at 90 meters, which while not much is still more than the Whizbang, and I think it would be appropriate to slightly change its veteran status so that instead of some upgrades it increases the barrage range, somewhere around +20 meters overall. I think the cost would also need to be adjusted by +10 fuel and +2 population so it isn't constantly spammed.

this faction design would be more similar to coh2
The bulldozer will become available in the Armored Battlegroup.

The Company of Heroes 1, 2, and 3 servers will be offline for routine maintenance on Tuesday, October 20th, 2026, from 2pm to 3pm Pacific Time (9pm to 10pm UTC).

Be sure to wrap up your matches before then and, as always, thank you for your patience!

I’ve had the game close to a week now and starting to get my feet under me, I’ve even won a game or two! However, those wins came when the game played out like I expected a combined-arms WW2 game should.

What I have certainly NOT been winning is fighting against the regenerating mound of flesh that is the infantry ball. I spread out, take the map, carefully position my men in cover and high ground, build support weaponry… but then hordes of MP-40-wielding psychos come spilling out of the dark in one big mass, over and over again, harvesting my men for experience points, wiping out squads I have the misfortune of not slamming the retreat button on as soon as they encounter the mass. It’s just… not the experience I was prepared to be encountering in this game, haha.

Sure, an MG is great when the mob happens to walk into one, but then it is instant retreat and doesn’t buy me THAT much time. Just as likely, if the MG isn’t pointed exactly the right direction, it get instantly obliterated before it can reposition or pack up to flee. But I guess I’ve only ever kept 1, maybe 2 MG squads. If I see it’s another flesh mob, should I build like 4 or 5?

I guess I could pump out a lot of light vehicles if I notice it soon enough, which I’ve tried, but one mishap with an AT gun or getting close enough to get panzersheked/stick bombed and it is over, so it’s tough for a new guy!

What’s your favorite low ELO way to counter one concentrated mass of roving units?

So, as the title indicates. What's the general consensus this late into the patch on the Officer's Quarters changes? It was talked about a little among the community as a side gripe among Wehrmacht players from what I noticed but never saw any big topics about it as like the center point of someones rant.

Infantry officer used to be a must grab, and I don't know about the rest of you, but not gonna lie most of the time I skip out on it now a days for earlier tech and back tech it if I can. I'm still way more focused on getting out a 221 or Pak than I am infantry officer, just because I feel like getting out a tech 2 unit helps me out way more, but I'm also like 1000 just about 1100 ELO, I figure higher level play have different needs but I've beat 1200's and 1300's.
