So how does Relic’s newest, more colourful entry fare? Company of Heroes 3 has a lot to live up to, with many different fans wanting very different things from a decade of anticipation. In that time, Relic’s RTS has gone on to become one of the most renowned, beloved WWII strategy games of all time after a slightly patchy start, with thousands of dedicated fans playing at any time even now. The future campaign map improvements are especially interesting to me, as while I am extremely fond of CoH3, the lack of dynamism on the campaign map is a serious issue, as I noted in my Company of Heroes 3 review.It’s been almost ten years since Company of Heroes 2 first launched, a whole generation of gaming ago. Still to come is a new 3v3 map, Italian campaign map improvements and camera zoom distance changes. The community largely seems pleased with what the latest update is touting, though players are still eager for replays and ranked multiplayer, which are expected in a later update. While there's a lot to like about the singleplayer campaigns, multiplayer and co-op vs AI skirmishes are what keep RTS romps ticking along, so it's good to see some more reasons to hop into a battle. Many tooltips and descriptions have been updated to better reflect the abilities, units, veterancy, and upgrades for greater clarity and information to the player.Vehicles commanded to face in a different direction will turn properly instead of driving in circles.Loiters have been toned down to be less oppressive.The M13/40 has also seen some reductions in power.Pathfinders have had their utility and early power toned down.Relic stresses that it's not made a full balance pass yet, but the update still includes "several changes to help shake up multiplayer and co-op". Bloom was removed and we fixed blur or "haze" on the maps.Fixed several issues where bridges did not correctly have cover.Adjusted territory layout on (8) Mignano Gap and made minor adjustments to Strategic and Victory Point locations on (6) Gazala Landing Ground. With this option, squads only occupy one control group at a time, like in previous CoH games
