Highly recommend CoH to anyone who is on the fence. The best RTS I've yet played. Be aware that the MP can be unforgiving however.
Funny how the weekend deal corresponds with the release of the Eastern Front mod. Here's hoping Relic has something official coming relating to the CoH franchise (or better yet, Homeworld)!

If I did not already buy the THQI complete pack, I'd pick this up. Great game.
Hahaha, oh crap, I was playing CoH last night with a mate, and he told me to get Tales of Valor. I said, "eh, next time it's on sale on Steam I'll pick it up."
Excellent.
One question - I own the retail copy of CoH Gold. There's not problem buying Tales of Valor on Steam, right?

I bought Company of Heroes and Opposing Fronts retail.wmat said:

So, here's the thing.
Company of Heroes, Opposing Fronts, Tales of Valor are all the same files on your computer (when patched to the latest version). The key difference here is that each "expansion" has a serial key that is added to your master account at Relic Servers.
So, as long as you have the key registered on your account, you get the access to that expansion features.
I don't remember if Steam gives you the key to the game when you install it (I think i had to dig through the Registry to find them), but once after i registered them in my main relic account (which you do ingame), i got access to everything on my retail installation.

eastern front mod just got released.
adds russians to coh.
impressions so far, very very different. No retreat no start units can't op points a shit ton of units.

If you guys read any of my posts from the last page or two you know I had a bit of a fit, but that feeling is long gone... I now think Steam Support may be some of the best support I've gotten from a company in a long time.
Here's the kicker though, this may just be either a mistake or Steam Support is really nice. I still have my extra digital copy on Steam, even after restarting after gifting the game to my friend.
So to re-cap: I have a retail copy, a Steam copy, and now my friend has a copy.
Thank you Steam, you guys rock!
So yes, my problem is happily resolved! (It says guest pass but I made sure it was the full game giftable and it was and is now on my friend's Steam account.)

Been waiting forever for a good deal on CoH. Doin' it!
When i go to buy the entire CoH pack it says this in my shopping cart "It looks like you have packages which overlap in your cart. You need to remove the reundant packages from your cart before you can checkout."
but when i add each individually its fine......any ideas?? Its only $2 more by buying CoH gold then adding Valor.

Bioshock was preloaded, this in all certainty will be as well. They even had (for the first time I think!) a countdown to unlocking.

This happens to me as well. Just give it a while. I am sure they will fix it before the weekend is over. Send a email if you want to be sure they know.

More strategy games for the sale? Bah.
At least I get to save my money.

I think people here are mostly basing that on its Metacritic score, which isn't even that bad in the first place, and would probably be better if not for the $30 price tag.Roofy said:

The full package will net you lots of single player. Original had a... 15? mission campaign. One of the missions lasts an hour. First exp pack probably gives another 10 hours. Dunno about 2nd exp pack.poppabk said:
DOW2 campaign, er... not. Linear campaigns. Some units will carry over but it's much more "traditional" than DOW2's Diablo/DOW1 hybrid. I never actually beat the main campaign because one of the missions starts with the units at the end of the previous mission (that one hour mission) and I barely scraped through that one and just got pounded at the start of the next. Great game, though.
