A Company of Heroes!

Company of Heroes is a free online massively multiplayer online real time strategy game (MMORTS). The game is based in the WWII European campaign. As of now, there are two playable factions, the Germans and the United States military. The game has 6 playable classes, 3 for each faction. The class you choose is the class with the play style that best fits the player. There are two game modes, one is objective based and in the other you have to destroy your adversary’s headquarters. The map sizes range from small 1v1 battles to large 4v4 battles. Some 4v4 can last for 4 or more hours. The articles are located on the main website, http://www.companyofheroes.com/ the articles are written by the Company of Heroes team and its developers, THQ and Relic.

The article describes all of the upcoming patches and expansions to Company of Heroes. It also discusses game mechanics and techniques for winning battles. The main website gives individual articles for topics that can be discussed by players on the forums. The forums provide a place where players can discuss issues, and where THQ and Relic can fix the issues. I am very relieved that Company of Heroes costumer support is so good. I also found that each article is important for the games community, it is not just unimportant blabbering. 

I am very happy to see that THQ and Relic have expanded their gaming universe. Before, people would have to purchase Company of Heroes in a store, now; people can play the free version with the full campaign and multiplayer modes. This is a great leap in MMO history as high quality games usually have to be paid for. Now player will be able to play a high quality game, free!

Company of Heroes provides allot of fun for its players, the game does not require high computer specifications and can be accessed by almost anyone. I am hoping that they will add more playable factions as well as new maps in the near future.
