i'm not really a strategy guy, but my buddy told me to play CoH 2. I started the Soviet campaign on easy mode. Why's this shit so fash, and does it get any better?

    Yeah but like even when I'm playing as them they're depicted as sociopathic monsters. Like they make a point of showing them mowing down their own troops for retreating and shooting a surrendering Nazi soldier (as if that's a bad thing). I just don't get it from the dev's perspective like, if these people suck so much, why would anyone want to play as them?

      Well they added the Brits, so I feel like you're kind of obligated to also do Soviets. I can't imagine it was due to overwhelming pressure from fans of the series.

      Also if you add soviets that gives an entire new faction for communist themed horse armor dlc.
