I like imagining HW2, not a Halo mod of CoH

In Response To: Re: If it were up to me... (Quirel)

: It's kind of a prerequisite for decent mod tools and RTS gameplay.

: Go here , download the Company of Heroes demo, and imagine what it would be
: like to play as UNSC and Covenant instead of Allies and Nazis.

HW is more of an action-RTS tailored to play with a controller. Which fits it. It's part of what makes the game and the tech unique. No other RTS that I've encountered replicates the feel of the game or the ease of use with a controller (because HW was designed from the ground up for controller input)

HW2 would be a game that the Kinect could actually be used with that at the same time doesn't feel like a shoehorned feature. Could make use of both voice commands (a la TC's EndWar) and gestures. Could end up playing it in a Minority Report kind of way.

I'm just not convinced of a true sequel using another party's engine and mechanics. It's just like you wouldn't go and make commercial Halo FPS game in the BF4/Frost engine just because it sounds cool to replace Americans and Russians with UNSC and Covies and play with up to 64 players.
