It's 'Murika

[Vermillion_Hawk]

Now incoming - Company of The People's Heroes, where Soviet soldiers stop to help old ladies cross the street and commissars gently guide men back to the battlefield with a pat on the back and their words of encouragement.

Well obviously they can't have western corporations with no regard for the Russian people going about undermining all the propaganda history they teach in school!

Soviet history - Lots of people died of famine under soviet rule in the puppet countries
Real History    - Lots of people died of famine under soviet rule because the food was taken from them and sold by the state


Wonder what one is considered patriotic?

Their next title will be Company of Soviet Supermen who defeat Polish and Finnish fascism and then win the cold war by going into space and nothing bad ever happened.

It's a shame that relic will think that COH2 flopped because it was unpatriotic towards the Russian consumerbase instead of realizing the truth that the game is awful and is nothing like the first game.

Also, Unkn0wn if you still don't believe that russians have a different view of WW2, you should read some of the user reviews on metacritic. (EDIT: actually, most people seem to just be legitimately disappointed in the game.)

Also, why would the American Government start developing games? most of the games already have a pro american viewpoint and the US army already have a game to get people interested in military service, it's called Americas Army.

Well at least Company of Heroes 2 will have some lasting impact despite being a shittier copy of CoH.

While AA is definitely pro american, it at least doesn't try to teach you a false history.
