Hello! Thanks for checking out our mod. A fully fledged singleplayer feature would be quite challenging to add due to the nature of the mod (injecting code into the base game and our focus on the online war campaign) but we are looking at offering some sort of practice mode for new players to take their newly built companies into a battle against waves of AI enemies. Just as a way for users to get a hang of the game and its mechanics.

Thank you for the feedback, CommanderLVJ

Love the idea to do a video like that so will suggest it to the rest of the team to see if that's something someone would be able to take up. We now have the main features of the mod detailed out on our steam page but a video would be a nice addition.

Expanding the mod to include soviets is something we may do in the very long term, but it's a big undertaking and we have limited developer manpower at the moment so would have to see whether we can bring on some new people first! Regarding models and such, we do make use of lots of the awesome unit models for COH that community members have developed over the years, with credit to the original creators of course. Some of these are featured as 'reward units' which you can get as cards after each game.

Thanks for reporting these! We only recently fixed our mod DB access so just to make sure we see bug reports I would recommend you join our discord server and you post them in the dedicated bugs channel.

Cheers!

Well the whole point of the mod is to fight on the warmap overworld which allows us to expand the scope of the game from a single battle or campaign (ie. africa/eastern front/battle of the buldge) to the entire war.

Kinda like Risk played with COH units. So we feel like we can add in prototype units, or units that rarely saw combat at a given location and have them used normally among other "period correct" units.

EIRR is not defined by a time period, so we can do a lot of "What If?" type stuff.

We're still working on the skin, but we dont really get hung up too much on what kind of pants they are wearing.

Well, we've actually fixed numerous exploits. One which comes to mind being the "Semi-auto ATG" exploit. Which is why I asked him to elaborate.

Exploits we want to know about and will correct. Balance issues are however very subjective and we take careful consideration on each subject before digging into the unit itself.

Is there a problem here? Does it need to be fixed? Is this an isolated problem? We don't really want to change something because someone had a bad day, if you know what i'm saying.

I thank you for your kind words and thanks for the feedback. :)

Then it looks as if you are registered. I suggest you give it another shot.

Could you please elaborate? There are strong units and builds in every RTS. Considering that we are making completely new content it takes a bit to weed out the overpowered stuff, but there are not any "Exploits" that do not already exist in normal COH.

It is installed completely separately. Considering that you now need steam to play company of heroes, we are in the process of updating the auto installer, but if you put the autoupdater into the main COH folder of your Steamapps list of games, then EIRR should download to that folder and you should be able to play.

man, if everyone I heard this comment from stayed, we wouldn't have this problem.

Unfortunately, skrimish mode with bots is beyond our capabilities due to how the game works internally.

It's built like vCoH, so no realism.

Make sure that your autoupdater.exe is in your main COH folder. We have had no server issues in a long time, so it has to be something with your internet or the position of the updater.

Alright, you cannot create melee animations for CoH units and then "NOT" release your mod.

The only thing I can tell you to do is to buy the game. Considering its an old game, you should be able to get it off of Steam for around $10.

No, this is a 2p+ mod.

The premise of the mod is that multiple players fight on the same map to advance their army. This actually requires real people or it cheapens the experience.

I hope that this doesnt turn you off. We have plenty of tutorials and a community willing to help if you are having trouble getting started.

We choose to maintain a largely vCoH look, but if your vCoH skins are modified, then they shall show up in EIRR as well.
