I played the demo before release & I fell in love with it so I didn't hesitate to get it on release.

I bought COH2 to make the experience complete, but only bought it because it was on sale.A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. If I were to buy my first COH-game I would go for COH1 with all dlc.

In COH2 it is vissible: much easier to identify the correct squad. In COH1 you have to remember which squad you gave which number: it is NOT vissible in the squad-tag. I like to bind different squads together and assign them a quick number. Multiplayer of both games is still very much alive. Menu: the game menu in COH1 is much cleaner. I like the admosphere in COH1 a bit better. But that is what it was like for the Russian soldiers: they actually were meat to die for the motherland. Atmosphere: in COH1 I care much more about my troops. Campaign COH2: just played the Stalingrad map: it seems accurate. all dlc it follows the liberation of Europe pretty close. Campaign: COH1 is pretty accurate I think. COH2 not so much: I have to turn down several options and tweak things to get it running smoothly and still making it look good - that's a draw-back for me.

COH1 runs smooth on max settings on my rig. Especially since I downloaded and use 'Close to historical skins' which include hd textures for COH1.
