Weather conditions are a major factor in gameplay, with movement and action penalties applied to players' units. Essence 3.0 also incorporates an innovative weather-simulating technology known as ColdTech and destructible environments.

In contrast to traditional unit visibility, TrueSight more accurately represents a unit's visibility range based on environmental conditions and type of unit. One such improvement is the new line-of-sight technology, TrueSight, which aims to better emulate troop visibility in real combat. The game is built on Relic's proprietary Essence 3.0 engine, which showcases new improvements compared to Relic's previous games.

Many people are very sensitive about this topic, because some people demanded after the multiplayer alpha that the game should be even more zoomed out. Beyond the zoom level of the multiplayer alpha it would be too much zoomed out for me. I would like to see something between CoH 2 and the multiplayer alpha, but more towards the latter (bit more zoomed out than in). Or you guys correct me, but at least for me, I spend a long time with coh2 and I'm pretty comfortable with that game but jumping to recent alpha was a weird experience in camera regards. This isn't Steel Division or any other Wargames franchise game to play with icons but I don't think ppl asking for a little zoom-out have in mind that kind of zoom. If you can zoom out, you need to do it or you’re at a disvantage.I don’t want to play with icons.' being attacked by the unit (that isn't artillery or other long-range support) off-screen even with a max zoomed camera isn't charming at all, also.

If this is the same then I can't tell why I feel that game is too zoomed and not comfortable to play.Īnd for argument 'seeing the units, the animation when the enemy throws a grenade is part of the game and the charm of CoH3. I hope it's just for testing proposes because (weirdly enough) I feel pre-alpha multiplayer had a more comfortable zoom lvl. I don't think zoom is because of technology limitations but rather a design decision.
