Battlefield 1 vs Company of Heroes 2
Battlefield 1
Battlefield 1 is the first of the highly-popular, first-person action-shooter game franchise, Battlefield. This game takes you back to World War 1 where you'll be able to get involved in every global conflict during that period of time, from the cities of France, the vast Arabian deserts, or the Italian Alps. You can take control massive tanks, Behemoths, dreadnoughts and airships or even agile biplanes in addition to shooting guns and throwing grenades. The best part in this game is its large-scale (up to 64 players) multiplayer mode that will thrust you right into the heart of action. Play as an infantry, a cavalry unit or even a tank operator as you coordinate with your team to take the battlefield and win the match. Of course, there are many different game modes and each of them will give you specific goals to complete in order to win.If you're looking for a large-scale, team-based MMOFPS action, you needn't look far - Battlefield has always dominated this sector of the action-shooter genre and honestly, you'll be missing out if you haven't had the chance to try this game. EA Games has also recently reworked the old Battlefield 1 so that it'll be able to compete on the same level as recent modern-day shooters. This is a great thing mainly because you'll now have a ton of other players to play the game with.
Company of Heroes 2
Company of Heroes 2 is the exciting follow-up for the original Company of Heroes game. Set in World War 2, this game is rather multiplayer-focused but it does provide players with an intense single-player campaign which also double as a way for you to be familiarized with the gameplay before heading into multiplayer.The game does have a lot of "standalone" DLCs that adds either a new single player campaign to the game or a new multiplayer army for well... the multiplayer gameplay which you'll have to buy if you aim to get a "complete" version of the game. This kind of make the multiplayer aspect of the game rather pay-to-win since players without the new multiplayer standalone, which usually features a new army that's slighter stronger, will probably be on a disadvantage.
All in all, Company of Heroes 2 is still a great game from a great franchise, but it seems like the developers/publishers may have lost some favor with its player base mainly because of the slew of "standalones" that players have to shell more money for in addition to the "base game".
