Well, I'm a little disappointed in their ratings. My gosh, this game is virtually perfect. 9 out of 10 or 95 of 100 is far closer to the real assessment of this wonderful war game, IMO.

This is def one of the better games i've played in a while. Gameplay is addictive and frustrating (challanging). It's like company of heroes with the limits taken off.
Some awesome, realistic and intense WW2 battles. A little bit of stragity makes for a satisfying couple of hours of heroic war. Kill ze germaans

I love this game so much I could crush a grape ! As much as I have enjoyed playing Company of Heroes, Men of War is what I have been eagerly awaiting. COH = Hollywood WW2. MOW = Stalingrad WW2. Many, many thanks to everyone involved in making this great game

I believe what Lancer means is that CoH is so arcady that it actually stinks and is more of a visual trip then any type of strategy game like Men of War.
You have to think and plot your next moves in MoW and not have a time limit to do it in like CoH.
In CoH, the fastest man wins. How crappy and realistic is that?
In MoW, the best tactics and strategy wins. You have to actually plot and plan to beat this game.

Men of War was designed for a real thinking man.
CoH was designed for the 'arcade kids'.

I have to ask, but have you ever played CoH ? Or did you just pick that up from everybody else ? Because that is a load of nonsense.

Arcady ? And you are aware that it is MoW that has the direct control feature ?

The fastest man wins ? Not really, but then, being fast is actually a viable strategy you know, question is, can you then hold what you have taken ?

But of course if you have a problem with speed, intensity and making choices, sometimes quick ones, like you know.. they had to in the real world

And i would like to see the proof that CoH was designed for arcade kids while MoV was for thinking men So far all i have seen is that MoW is for braggards
