Iron Harvest

Played today for about an hour its well buggy ! When you select a unit to get cover they just go all over the place ! That needs to be fixed ! Also when you select a unit to be shot it shoots another ! The game needs a lot of work before I spent any money on it.

Yeah I tried the beta weekend and that's the same opinion I took away from it. Units just stood around taking fire and not reacting until manually told to "attack this unit" and the likes.
I went in blind but I basically found it was Company of Heroes 2 with a reskin, and less features.

I agree with a lot of the criticisms, but despite that I’m still enjoying it. If they manage to fix these issues on release then there’s potential for a good RTS. I’m trying not to compare it to the CoH games because of how mature they are vs a beta.

Anyone played the released version. Is it any good. Reviews seem sketch to me.

Enjoyed the beta but it didn't hook me in enough to buy it full price. I'll probably pick it up when it goes on offer though.

The beta was ok but really felt to me like a £20 game, not the pant-ripping price of £47 that Steam want for it.

It isn't a £47 game, period. They're riding on the success of Relic and their work on CoH franchise. The game is good, it's detailed, a lot of work has gone into it. But I escape the feeling that it's just a reskin / total overhaul mod for CoH. It's probably one I'll pick up on sale for £20 or under, but not paying that full price for what you get out of it.

Yah I had a go on this. £10 game tops tbh. Dissatisfied with it I was.

I played the demo a few weeks back and the men never went where I said ! Did they fix that ?

Anyone yet played the release version?

And if so, have they ironed (ha) out any of the bugs yet?

Quite fancy the look of this game. Just seems from a lot of peoples reactions, to be more than a bit buggy.

This has been on my watch list for a while now and with a £10 off coupon its about £13 on epic games.

How is it? I'm a big COH fan

Its not bad, not as good as CoH but worth the epic sale price

I paid 20ish on steam a few weeks ago. It's not bad, but not as slick as coh.

Well I bought the deluxe edition for £22 so I'll check it out and report back

Well I refunded the game before I saw this, it's ok. I found the AI on skirmish far too hard and aggressive. It has some nice ideas but seems a little empty, not enough variety in the units. Maybe I'm just spoilt with the COH workshop, if this game had workshop support on the other hand...

That steamdb version seems really stripped back with only 4 skirmish maps and 1 faction

Also what kind of vernacular is this?

on accident?!?!
