    Fun fact: The sturmtigger does not fire "regular" shells, it fires rockets. It is an overgrown rocket lancher on tracks. Also almost every models recovered after the war is slightly differance from the other, which seems to be a theme in ww2 german armor.

      It’s also a bit of a recyclement project, the rocket it uses is modified from the 15ch shell used by Bismarck class battleship that were both sunk by that point, so the shells just sat there doing nothing.
      I suspect it’s also a “might as well” project.

    "What was that"
    That was the local dictator showing off his welding skills by attaching metal to anything that could hold it. BTW said marchers had to march two miles with essentially 120 pounds of metal attached to them. Completely non-functional metal. Also using a mining transport as a 40K mega tank by covering it in metal also, and sticking a bunch of lenovo laptops in it as "master supreme force control center".
    Good times.

    The thing with getting codes is that Polish people might be sometimes insufferable to argue with, but they have solidarity. That would mean the mentality of "If I enjoy something and you want to enjoy what I enjoy I will definetely help the way I can so you can do what I do".

    A big part of the issue on the eastern front with guys not having rifles is the same as today:
    They have TERRIBLE logistics. A lot of the troops were decently trained, and the soviets had plenty of guns and bullets and vehicles...
    But like their military didn't value support units or logistics companies very much so resupply was a MESS.

  • @burningsinner1132
    @burningsinner1132 2 роки тому +38

    The rifle part was actually false. Even ammo situation was not as terrible as people say.
    The problem was that training was non-existent, the base material for soldier were dumb peasants, communication sucked because of critical shortage of radios, and there was critical shortage of machine guns. What does not really helped the situation is very bad scouting exarcebated by massive loss of planes in first days of war, forces being spread thin because of how long absolutely undefendable border was. As cherry on top, recent high rank sweep (It was necessary, but timing couldn't be any worse) left general shortage, drastic reduction of quality and fear of making any decisions, especially the tough ones.
    As a result, breakthroughs happened constantly and supply line cut always followed. It's not that red army had no ammo or weapons, it was them running out without resupply.

      Maybe it might’ve been true for the first few days of Stalingrad, but after that it wasn’t all “Enemy at the Gates 24/7” like the game’s campaign tries to portray it as.

      @БабайАлибабаев 2 роки тому +6

      For what I heard, this critical situation with weapon happened to militia (home guard) units, which were create from scratch and given weapon from old surplus, like hodgepodge of foreign rifles from the times of Russian civil war or WW1 weaponry.
      Also there were instances of German breaching the front and capturing said militia units who were traveling to frontline unarmed (they were supposed to get weapons after arrival).
      Probably this created the stereotype of 1 rifles between 3 men.
      While the regular army had enough Mosin rifles to arm every soldier.

    So, about that Russian controversy... Its less about the gameplay and more about the campaign. It contains some retarded bullshit as soviets burning their own houses with civilians inside and soldiers being punished for saving their commander. There is a good video by BadComedian titled "Why Russians hate Company of Heroes 2" You should watch it if you want to know just why the game created so much controversy in Russian community.

    • @pepeedge5601

      Why would russians be angry?
      It is about the soviet union, which does not exist anymore. The leadership of the soviet union was fcking dogshit and every russian should be happy that it does not exist anymore.
      Stalinism was bs and good ol' Joseph was a massive asshole, I would go as far as to say that he was evil.
      Russians today are not soviets, and every criticism towarsd the soviet union is towarsds the leadership not the average russian people.

      Unfortunately a lot of that is true. Peasants in villages or territories captured by the Germans were regarded with suspicion for the simple fact of being alive. Stalin had the military officers that warned him about the incoming German attack court martialed and executed. And commissars did shoot soldiers who did their job, if against orders.
      It's kinda like how China doesn't like you talking about certain things...or a certain country off their coast.

    I am surprised that our friend watched t-34. As a Russian I personally dislike the movie due to it being portrayed like I quote "Historically accurate documentary of man who escaped German camps several times" because while it's good action film... I don't think befriending local SS officer and giving a tank to prisoners isa historically accurate representation. The same can be applied to COH2 but overall it's a good strategy game in my opinion. Love the gameplay, interesting US campaign mechanic. Interesting original campaign if you turn off your volume and skip cut scenes. 7/10 would skip again.

    "Get this peice of shit (T-34) moving"
    "They are not real soldiers"(Penal Battalion"

    If you have a physical copy with key of a game where it should work on steam but doesn't, I highly recommend contacting steam support over it. I had this situation with a game about a decade ago, I don't remember what it was, but they made me send a picture of the box and key from which they then agreed to just add the game to my account :)

    Not the first video i saw with exactly same review .. will cut it short .. have over 1200h in this game
    1) i got this game almost 3 years ago for mere 1€in summer sale on STEAM, and in sale you can also easily get it .. didnt need to bother with middle mans .. indeed was lucky
    2) to get in-game currency for commanders .. yuo need to play single faction/race for very long time to deplete its reward pool (small buffs for units like you saw that Jackson one on 18:12 ... , then original Relic skins, not the moded ones, and finally very rare commanders ... yeah you can get whole commander .. though chance of it is like 0.05% of getting one and the more commanders you buy from that faction the lower is the chance ... so better to hoard the "Supplies" (name of currency) and save it for other factions .... after like over 600h with single faction .. mentioned agressive Oberkommando West .. i got 95% of buffs .. and now i get currency about 99% of the time ... so slowly getting the commanders ready .. and yeah you need 30x crates worth of Supplies but thats only 90 WON games D: (or about 120 lost ones .. you get them either you lose of win .. just slightly slower)
