Gates of Hell texture is AAA quality. The animation is top notch. Even the explosion effects are awesome, especially when the tank is cooking off.

[@the_roflcakes]

So good. Best rts in the last decade imo. AI needs work and is pretty braindead but overall it's been so good.

[@Basedpilledandtradmaxxed]

Agreed, GOH has soooooooo much potential, every content drop and DLC they've had has been great so far and the mods are top notch. They need to keep it coming with good content and updates

[@dannyravelo1401]

Yeah, better AI and pathfinding would make GoH so much better. I do like the explosions and tank firing in mow2, though. They may not be as realistic, but they "feel" more powerful than GoH

[@Witcher_23]

Totally agree! I play and play through GoH on my channel in 8K resolution and with HDR, and it looks many times cooler than MoW 2.

[@skytabs6292]

The thing about gates is the optimization, soon as a bigger battle kicks of the fps drops are horrid even in higher end pcs. Men of war has always run amazing

[@TigerTankSprues]

That flak 88 has some crazy fast traverse in mow2 😂😂

[@jacksheldon8566]

@@Xanthira222 it's poor. Some big mods like hotmod require USA dlc to work even tho they aren't even set in WW2. But they have some unresolved bugs like invisible helicopters. And overall there isn't many working TC. The valour mod there isn't balanced either. Compared to mowas2, GoH modding scene is abysmal.

[@dannyravelo1401]

GoH needs updated mod tools. A lot of the mods are basically ported from mowas2. If mow2 brings better mod support and new tools, it will actually improve the mods in GoH as a result.

[@SchlomoGoldbaum]

I dunno, but GoH is much better... the grafics, the physics, the explosions, the sounds... its just... nice. I mean you can see shrapnel hitting the ground around a explosion...

[@n3.00]

jajajajajajaja sure

[@skytabs6292]

Crazy bad optimization

[@iTomBass]

Gates of Hell > everything I will say the lighting in MOW2 is nice and the auto fence jumping is good though everything else pales in comparison by so much, I mean that MG42 sound is terrible and they're still reusing much of the same audio from earlier games... That turret traversing sound has been in this franchise since 2004... with "soldiers heroes of world war 2"... The first entry!! At least GOH made everything from scratch.

[@jonwrankiz]

Yea, men of war devs getting lazy

[@vonvonvonvonvonvonvonvonvo7009]

Not to mention how overly arcadey MOW2 is, it feels more like a CoH game than MOW...

[@KaptifLaDistillerie]

GoH devs have a burning passion for their game and for WW2 history. As someone who worked on voice acting with them, they are awesome people

[@iTomBass]

@@KaptifLaDistillerie That's awesome dude! Which voices in the game are yours?

[@kylek29]

Can't say I disagree, it's been clear that MOW's main developers are just going to continue to reuse as much as possible and release as sequels what used to be considered "expansion packs" back in the day. I kinda hope the GoH devs decide to build from scratch with a modern engine -- since they had the licensing issues that (Iirc) really held them back on doing what they wanted to do.

[@buak809]

it truly amazes me how Gates of Hell is detailed, even when zooming in on a unit we can see a lot of details, crazy to think that modern RTS game like GoH is much more detailed than some FPS WWII shooters from many years back

[@igorthelight]

So true!

[@kylek29]

GoH feels like a game that was developed by people who loved the original MoW game. MoW feels like a game from a dev house that wants to keep selling us that same original MoW game. If GoH announced a sequel on a new engine so they were free to do what they wanted, that'd be a day 1 backing from me. The details in their work show a lot of passion and that tends to make for a great game.

[@dylanmilne6683]

Thing is it still looks like a 20 year old game with loads of polish. It doesn't look like a game from 2024 at all.

[@Sarfanger]

I would think just improving path finding to what MOW2 has and adding few more gamemodes would make GoH perfect. After that just add all the rest of the WW2 nations and you're done.

[@TorchOnTarget]

Thanks for the taking the time to do the comparison. Love gates of Hell.

[@xFETTx]

They better fix that 88 before release on MOW2 lmao. That thing will dominate with how quick it moves.

[@jacksheldon8566]

the reason for that is that it is also an anti air. and to be effective at anti air it needs to aim fast. hence the high turning speed. (which i find kind of stupid too.) sneaky infantry or artillery will counter it.

[@blust4r_687]

i will play both MOW2 and GOH

[@EternalRevenue97]

GoH looks and feels really dynamic in sound design, it feels like you are playing an RTS Hell Let Loose, AI for me seems pretty smart, don't see a lotta issues with path finding, MOWAS 2 is always a classic I will come back to yet , since release Men of War 2 Ive been jammin, I do love the introduction of echelon/ phases when in battle and the tech tree, AI needs some work with path finding and some elements seem bugged but overall is good feels like Men of War and War Thunder had a baby. I kinda feel the UI and Interface however is like CoH Company of Heroes.

[@EagleTube777]

Assuming that u used ultra graphic on all games , i can see that goh is better in everything except for human animations. Its also amazing to see mowas2 stands out after all these years

[@KaptifLaDistillerie]

If there's one thing GoH is really better, it's animations lol

[@Ealdorman_of_Mercia]

looks like Gates of Hell wins in every category. Though I will still buy men of war 2. We must support these types of games.

[@iTomBass]

Except when they constantly reuse assets with no real innovation by looking at whats currently on the market and what is their direct competitor (GoH). I mean it has voice lines from Faces of war (2006) and the turret traversing sound is from the first entry which is even earlier in 2004. I'm all for supporting smaller devs making ww2 games but this is a decently sized RTS IP and it feels like they're shoving sh*t in our face in some respects

"Excellent video, it's evident that throughout the three games there are different advantages and disadvantages for each one and modes. By the way, I know it's a lot to ask, but many people are really interested in a new DLC for a new campaign for Gates of Hell. Many have tried to send comments to the game developers and also to many players. We know that for a game to have excellence and appeal to the public, it's important to listen to feedback. I speak for many when I say it would be advisable, before diving into a new campaign, to fill in the gaps for the three existing nations regarding tanks, cannons, and units that are not yet in the game. This would be greatly appreciated by many players. So, from the bottom of our hearts and with all due respect, I ask that if you have the opportunity to give your humble opinion, as we eagerly watch the videos you upload every day in anticipation of a new game, if you could also convey these humble words to the creators, it would be greatly appreciated by many who are eagerly awaiting the completion of the nations with the final vehicles and artifacts, even though there weren't many, one or two were created during the war.🙏

[@ItsShane79]

@SturmFuhrer, Is it just me or do the infantry and small arms models for GoH just look better, higher res. and of a higher quality then MoW2's? Also I would argue that the vehicle/tank models of MoW2 look about equal in both res. and quality to GoH. That worries me somewhat. Also this "healthbox" thing we've seen in the demo version makes it way too arcady. I hope there is an option to turn that off.

[@blust4r_687]

Yep, there Is, they created a "realism mode" which you can use in both SP and MP

Not based on graphics and animations but: GOH because men or war 2 once again didn’t add a dynamic, randomly generated, campaign. You can spend hours in GOH after you beat the campaign while in MOW2 you’d have to play online or play the same mission, right? I hope eventually they add some procedural stuff to the game.

[@Partexedd]

I think i saw in a review that MoW2 did add a gamemode similar to conquest from GoH
