Please add customizable hotkeys. It's inconceivable not to have this feature in 2014!
Being left-handed I am forced to use autohotkey to customize and use the numpad so I don't get instant carpal tunnel. Also switching the stop ("W" on grid) and retreat ("R" '') to other keys using a third party program like this makes them not work properly.
Dear Relic: please... pleeease... PLEASE

Yep.
Like AT nade is E but faust is F.
Wasted so much muni and openings because of that, rifle nading damn vehicles...

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

My personal favorite is that R is both reinforce and smoke barrage on arty office. That's what I call great game design.

I agree but i don´t think Relic will do anything about it.
But there is a solution:

Thanks but, did you read my OP?
To elaborate on the autohotkey issue: if you set R or W to a different key it will always work for reversing but only works for retreating 1 out of about 12 times.

I agree, Some choices are absurd by relic we are in 2014 and no customizable hotkeys, loss of replays for each patch, you can not have the rewind button to replay etc
always the same story ... from dawn of war, vcoh, DoW2, COH2, it is like a trademark, now I wonder if they are not able to make these things or is it a clear choice of programming

Some very very basic things keep being ignored.
Man, I don't get them, I just don't.

This game lacks a few things from newer RTS's that I hope western front comes out with:
1) a replay mode that allows multiple spectators
2) customizable hot keys
3) a replay mode that allows you to rewind / seek a previous time
4) a replay mode that has more useful information on it like SCII's UI (Displays a bunch of diferent info like total munitions, resources spent where, etc)
5) a league system that helps pair people up with similar ELO more often like SCII's
6) displaying what the veteran status of the unit gains so players do not have to dig for those facts

Not sure why you encounter problems when remapping keys with autohotkey. I remapped QWRTUASDYXC, all arrow keys and Numpad0 without a problem. Using Extra Buttons on the mouse also works fine...
For Example:
I put "R" for reinforce to my Mousewheel. Now, when I do a full wheel turn, the Reinforce command is executed several times.

There is no problem with CoH2 matchmaking. If there is a player of similar ELO searching you will be matched with them quickly. The problem is that there are just not that many players playing CoH2. You can adjust the matchmaking system all you want, but it won't get better than it is now.

It's amazing that Relic charges AAA game prices and not have extremely basic features such as this. Nearly a year after release we still don't have it. Relic truly is a special company.

The issue is specifically with retreat and stop. The unit will verbally confirming "retreaaaat!" and not actually retreat.
If you're interested here's my left-handed setup as of today:
I set R to one of my mouse thumb buttons and W to mouse 3 and use the close mouse thumb for screen scrolling. Using mouse thumb buttons for retreating just isn't intuitive for me.

All I want is to rebind the tactical map so I don't have to choose between that and every other hotkey in the game.

Rebindable hotkeys, random option for automatch, tangible in-game ranks (like 1-20 vCoH style), rewind option in replays, observer mode.
So many basic RTS features. Yeah, dream on.

SHOUT IT OUT!
KoRneY: @aerafield It's possible that it is underpriced for what it is capable of now, no need to go full retard and take it immediately as a massive problem. It costs 60 more MP than a pz.3 and in 2v2 the barrage can be quite strong.

OKSpitfire: I do like that they made the Stuka more expensive instead of nerfing it into the ground though. Found it pretty unsatisfying to use before that buff a while back....

Lady Xenarra: I think post-2.0 Whizbang buffs, the price is too low esp since the Stuka got nerfed in cost too. Speaking of which, how exactly is one supposed to successfully dive this Sherman in disguise? Med tank spam running into SSFs?

Rosbone: It is also hard to expect Relic to help Coh2 when they cant even make working menus in Coh3 yet, 2 years after release and at full price+ for DLCs. Thats like asking a fish to do calculus.

Rosbone: But this last patch has made good progress for grabbing players. All we can hope is Coh3 gets to Coh2s quality level before everyone abandons the franchise. Its Relic so they will completely f*%k it up as usual. But its a hope/cope.
