I've played CoH for quite some time and I love it. I'm just starting to get into MoW now but wow I thought CoH had a huge learning curve but it's nothing compared to this. I know it will get easier with time but there's just too much micro needed in MoW. Example: I have 20 men and one picks up some nades, later I need to throw a nade at the enemy in a house but it takes me 5 minutes of searching through each man to find out which one has them.
I just find that I haven't got time to think about tactics and enjoy the game because of the intense micro needed to look after 30+ units, so after about 20 minutes I give up and go back to my comfortable CoH.

You do know that all you has to do, is to click on the "throw handgrenade" icon and the guy with the handgrenade, will automatically pull out the grenade and throw it where you want it to be thrown?

Well I do now, thanx. But what happens if you have 5 guys out of 20 with grenades and you do that? Will all 5 guys throw a grenade?

No and Yes. It depends on the situation. Most often only one guy throw a grenade but in some rare cases, I´ve indeed seen two or three hand grenades flying thru the air towards a target though... but then... the enemy can pick up a grenade and throw it back... but with two grenades, they usually dont have the time to throw both back...

Obviously we can play MoW online as well since there is several games running almost all the time. I suggest that you sit back, reinstall the game, then patch your game to 1.11.3 and then add the new 1.16.4 patch. By doing so, you can join every single game that is using the same patch.

Alot of guys have rated COH higher than MOW for graphics,but i with a faily decent PC system & card,am amazed at this conclusion as on my system MOW looks fantastic,& highly detailed,maybe you guys need a new system or card update or something,& the special effect's & realism are also fantastic,in a game as the japs the other night,i fired a shell from a Chi-Ri at a firefly's front armour,it deflected off & hit another firefly to the left & just behind it,damaging its track,with a lovely ping to it aswell,if thats not realism i dont know what is,& the sound of the explosions,on my 5.1 system is just amazing.

Where as what you get on COH is just to me average arcadey not terribly realistic graphics,& the sound of a rather annoying american general constantly going on at you to do this or do that or this is happening,i mean mate just shut up for 5 mins please.
