No idea if it helps with the key bindings but configuration_user.lua has this set.

setting = "classickeybindings",
value = 1,
valueType = 1,

Changing Value = 1 to 0 might work or it might be even worse if you still can't customize the controls.
( C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes 2 - it's the user and system lua files.)

This game should be 40€ maximum if we are to be honest, just so many basic features lacking for a multiplayer game in 2013.

edit: 35€ on GG seems about right. It's an all right game for that money.

It's a shame because with a little more effort this could have been a much better game. I still enjoyed the beta but could not overlook the fact that playing an RTS where every second matters (grenades, retreat etc.) is impossible when I have like 600 ping, the awful 2008 looking textures taking ages to load, absolutely shit lobby system, the bulletins being an out of place feature and so on.
Also they have trouble balancing the races, while at some points they were getting close, but I feel they killed the variety near the end. In the open beta I used the same opening and same commander in every single game because I would not risk anything else.

Edit: Yep standard version.

Right click on the game entry in Steam and select properties then click the little tab named DLC and there should be a full entry on what came with the game. Smile

The skins are accessed from the character profile, I forgot the exact name of it but it's where you select doctrines and set abilities, one of those tabs have a menu for selecting camo patterns for the different vehicle types.
(light, medium and heavy with winter and summer variants, usually it's themed so you can unlock the same camo style for each group should you want to but not all of them might be unlocked before gaining some more ranks or such.)

Well it's a strategy game so it's not that bad, the engine Relic is using (I forgot the name again.) is improving with each iteration too, Dawn of War, Company of Heroes, Dawn of War 2 and now COH2 with it's winter and ice features. Smile
(The performance keeps decreasing as the number of features increases but that's a different issue.)

EDIT: Wonder if they could do a decent classic Warhammer RTS?
(Wonder what they are working on next, DOW 40K III maybe, wasn't there a teaser about that?)

COH, DOW 2, COH 2 are on Essence Engine. DOW 1 is on engine from Impossible Creatures Very Happy

EDIT: DOW III was in making. They were saying that it's meant to be more in spirit with the original book rules in terms of gameplay with more focus on online features. But what happened to it after THQ went bankrupt I don't know.

I should have checked that in more detail before posting, interesting but yeah the THQ crisis might have changed things a bit, does SEGA have that license? Smile
(It's up to Games Workshop I guess, but DOW III might be years from a release.)

I searched a little bit but there isn't much to it. Nobody really knows what happened to W40K IP. Is it still with Relic or if GW revoked it?

EDIT: I was wrong. The IP is now in Slitherin's hands. Sega apparently has only rights to the Fantasy part of Warhammer universe.

You fuckers are really buying that shit? Wait for a crack goddammnit! And the performance can't be that bad! With FullHD and everything on max it will suck cocks wonderfully on a 7970 or 680 or 780 I am sure! I mean you can only see the soldiers cocks from above not directly in your face! No need for a bad performance then!

Since it's Act/Control, I don't mind waiting a few weeks (or a few months) till it gets cracked; I'm not too eager to play it anyway.

I was kinda ticked they didn't offer the other two game modes that ToV had. Those were the best part of that game to me. Wish they'd had more players though, esp. the 3vs3 tank mode. Good stuff that was.

I'm on mission 5, playing on General(hard) diff and having a blast so far. I'm a huge CoH1 fan too.
Way to expensive, but actually pretty good. Still has some things to polish though, but they're not game or enjoyment breaking.

So how's the performance in the bottom line?

Can anyone point to a benchmark?

I'm curious about this too, nobody has mentioned performance since the beta and the beta had downright shockingly bad performance.

It only seems to take advantage of one card... but even then, that's the performance for a GTX780?

Even with an overclock it's still bad

Best I can do (with most settings low) is an average of 46FPS

Of course though, if you ask anywhere, 'patches will fix it' and 'this is relic we're talking about' so rest assured Rolling Eyes


I play with a titan @ 2560 and it works fine. You just need to disable vsync and ser AA to medium, other settings are maxed.

Also, the game doenst support sli.

Disabling Vsync causes screen tearing most of the time...

For me it's the most important visual setting, definitely more than effects and stuff.

Define "fine" please, since Inter is running a pair of 780s - and even a single 780 is a close match to a Titan.
