CoH...Supreme Commander just doesn't have that feel to properly carry on the TA-franchise torch. Got bored very quickly.

So how does it feel to be a LIAR?

:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

sorry, supcom is incredibly uninteresting. it can have all the strategic depth in the world, but dear god, commanding an army of robots is the most boring RTSing i've ever done. ever.

That made me chuckle.
Different stroke for different folks.
Although I agree with the majority here.

Forged Alliance wasn't great, but Company of Heroes just gave me too much of a "This was better when they called it Dawn of War" feeling.

CoH is good but is hard finding a good game online as a noob, many ppl kick you, there are so few choices that have decent pings, and lots of players out there running on too high of settings which results in lag for everyone.

If you're new it's best to do 1v1 automatches until you get decent. That way you don't have to worry about pissing off teammates with your n00bness :). Also the matchmaking service can do a better job matching you with someone of equal skill as opposed to team games.

Apples and oranges. CoH is perhaps one of the most intimate, after a fashion, RTS games ever made (possibly only behind, oh, the Myth series) while SupCom is a massive but far more traditional strategic-scale RTS. I think there's plenty of room for both in the universe.

Company of Heroes by a friggin' MILE.

COH is one of the best games of the decade, hands-down, on any platform.

1. Call of Duty (Xbox 360)
2. Company of Heroes (PC)
3. Call of Duty (PC)
...
...
...

COH is really the only reason I still have a gaming PC. Otherwise I'd just use my laptop exclusively.
