Company of Heroes 3: Final Stand

No 3 or 4 player coop

This DLC feels a lot like a half assed mod, more than anything and gets repetitive fast. Underwhelming is the best way to describe this DLC. also, as a "standalone" game, it still downloads the regular COH3 regardless, so i don't know what the point of it being standalone is.

The Final Stand is an ok DLC, nothing more, nothing less. Is it worth the price is subjective, but I've been hooked on it since buying. I've been waiting for some commanders to go on sale, but since its been a while from their release and they never went for less than 20% I decided to grab this one while my 30% off lasts. For some reason, you get it both in CoH3 and as a separate library entry, but in there achievements don't unlock, for now at least. So, what did I get for my money? Five maps, all the units randomly unclocking durring the mission, and several difficulty options. The start is a bit slow, you can hardly hope to hit Expert++ difficulties with your stock army, but completing missions gets you perk points, which you can use to upgrade your units, give them bonuses, upgrade outposts to better defend themselves, etc. You have to finish 12 waves, and after that you get the option to hit the endless mode, for now I've only managed to hit wave 17. My friend also started playing and we are having a blast. Some might find annoying that units and abilities are random picks in the mission, but being able to grab whatever you want might turn boring fast using always the same things. This way at least you are forced to adapt and use whatever the game randomly gets you to pick. Reminds of of selecting a random loadout in games like Helldivers.

I've now 100% it and played a few hours, the mode is enjoyable and it's what i've always wanted for Co-op vs ai since i don't bother with PVP. However, there's a few notable bugs that can be slightly frustrating at times (e.g engineers not repairing and for some reason pathing is genuinely horrendous at times with vehicles) it desperately needs something that you can put points into after finishing a perk tree, take notes from Starcraft 2's co-op mode and let us upgrade stats bit by bit with every level we go up. Overral, it's solid and fun for someone who enjoys PVE like me.

It's currently not too amazing, especially for its price. I can definitely see ways to get better; the ideas are there. The randomized unit selections and unit buffs allow you to veer away from a singular meta unit type being used at all times (except Wehrmacht bunkers...). The randomized enemy types require you to find ways to make your composition flexible enough to deal with everything, from long-ranged artillery to super tanky boss-wave infantry. despite your randomized unit selections. Some unit disadvantages can be covered by simply playing more creatively, given the unit and perk abilities. It's fun when it works. However, there are FIVE maps, four of which play the exact same because it's the same three-parallel-attack-lanes defense map. I don't know why it can't have even slightly different setups; a map with four lanes, map where the HQ is in the center and enemies come from every direction, maybe a map with single chokepoint but the enemies are super buffed and numerous. There's also nothing more to do after beating Expert3 difficulty; you could grind the perk points to get stronger, but to what end, if you already can beat the hardest content handily? It could get better with more stuff to do: more maps, some balance fixing, and a lower price point. All of which are expectations of an Early Access indie game, but this isn't one, which means there isn't actually such a promise.

high price for barely a download seems were just playing same game but different format point less? might aswell just play normal game should have been a low price add on? been a long time player of CoH since the very start 2006 the first game. just a bit disappointed by this poor release. but love all coh series so far regards

凭心而论，这东西质量差，首发一堆bug，只有邀请联机，无匹配模式等等等等一堆问题。 如果后续可以优化好，增加更多有意思的机制，加入22、33、44匹配模式，我认为评分回升是必然的。 因为这个价格和一个战斗群dlc差不多，但远远比一个战斗群耐玩得多。战斗群嘛，大家懂得都懂，卖完dlc就开始狂砍，然后筹备下一个dlc。所以个人是认为这个dlc四分是合理，但由于目前大家的评分基本上一致一分两分，甚至在steam上是差评如潮。我就给个五分，以资鼓励，继续改进吧！水雷独立后，钱少、骨干流失等问题是事实，连个新阵营都做不出来，没必要对水雷苛责。
