Commanders of War II 2.0 changelog:

-In Battlezones, there's always a high amount of flags on the field, even in smaller games, for increased strategic depth.

Finally if you haven't got Men of War yet I suggest you have a look at this. Men of War gold edition that is the original game and single player addon is on sale through steam for around $13 AUD so guys if you haven't already got it there is no better time.

hmm id be keen, but may i suggest limit it to early period vehicles? ive been itching to put my PzIII to good use downloading cow2.0 now lol

do we really need the 1.16.4 patch?

it is only multiplayer patch as the official patch isnt out yet.

talks about the mp.exe file to play but we dnt use that when playing lan

yes we need it! cow2.0 needs it. plus if u run the mp.exe you still get the japs, therefor your still running the patch (at 1.11.4 or something however.) but should still work

 

ill test it in a second to see if all goes well for you with, questionable versions

I downloaded CoW 2.0 from MODDB but it wont run says the setup files are corrupt trying to download it from the creators server now.

yep same, try this link

 

http://www.filefront.com/15195017/commanders_of_war_2-2.0.exe/

Right edited the MODDB link out of the original post and here is the download links from the creators website - http://www.chronos-gamers.com/cow/downloads

Right this link works perfectly although it may be slow to download from it and its a .rar/.zip so you will need to manually install it. http://www.chronos-gamers.com/cow/file/11

 

http://www.filefront.com/15195017/commanders_of_war_2-2.0.exe/

 

The filefront .exe works perfectly as well.

noooooooooooooo been called in to work tonight... wont be back till 9 so u bastards better still be on lol.

Probably won't kick off till after dinner any way mate so should be fine.

 

The new CoW patch is really good he has limited allot of vehicles and units for example you can only field 1 flame tank so you can't spam them out all game and will need to use it tactfully.

WOOT MEN OF WAR AGAIN.

 

 

will play if host dont make laggy

 

on another note someone gave me 21 issues of combat tanks (like the news agent thing lol) and dey are aight ( diecast or w/e metal )

I maybe in .

if theres enough on i might come play.

hmmm this MP patch doesn't allow LAN games only 'internet" games

What it works fine for me I haven't tried with other people yet but you can still start them. Also I'm in TS now waiting for some players.

Edited January 20, 201015 yr by chambersAUS

That kind of defeats the propose of getting this patch then , since it runs off a different .exe (outfront_mp.exe)

Under both MoW_MP and Outfront_MP Single player and LAN are greyed out.

Strange mate it works perfectly for me and I am running the patch and CoW as well.

i know mate, lol been doing this for a while now it works trust me... for lan you run it from the mow_mp exe.

Jump in TS Rhodesy lets get a game going.

Anyone up for another game tonight?>

could again

Mine still doesn't work

 

As homer once said:

 

I'm missing the cook-off, it's going on right now, and I'm missing it!

I searched up Men of War on steam and it looks just like Company Of Heroes to me... It sounded very similar cause Company of Heroes also has a "Gold Edition" which adds their extra fractions. So whats the difference?????

No base building, more units, more histrionically accurate, more "realistic" gameplay
