Hi,
I don't know it this has been brought up before but wouldn't it be beneficial if we could send unit-unit interaction orders just by clicking the appropriate shield icons? For example if we would like to send engineers to repair damaged armor then we just select their shield and right click the damaged tank shield. The same could be done with loading units to transport. What's your opinion on this?
UI enhancement proposition.

That would be cool if relic remove fucking colour strips from the vehicles, so the will look more realistic. Like dat http://cs310629.vk.me/v310629377/4bd3/DwZOsnoxGjU.jpg http://cs312821.vk.me/v312821377/5501/VL5DUqW7deY.jpg
I know that should be in another place on forum but whatever

Good idea, got my thumbs up. 
OT: the modelling of some of the vehicles in this game are hilariously inaccurate in some situations...

That would be great.

Permanently Bannednice idea
There is no recording in all WW2 history of a piat actually knocking off a vehicle. Yes, it was THAT bad.

In my mind this would really ease up those interaction tasks (not that they are very stressful ). The armor repairs is in my mind the staple example. Sending the damaged tank behind the lines and just ordering the engineers without all the camera hassle would speed things up and free your mind from this unneeded distraction.

theres a lot of other stuff they could add to the shields
for instance, for weapon crews you cant tell if the crew is moving or if it is set up and ready to shoot by glancing at the icon. Whenever i work with weapon crews i always have to double click on them and see what theyre doing before i decide what i might do with them.
in another post i also recomended having a third row of shields for non-combatant vehicles like the IR halftrack, ambulences, and HQ trucks.

Agreed. I've thought about this. I've also thought about action icons on the shields (healing, auto-barrage, fixing, etc.) but there probably isn't enough space.

Please auto hotkey my units from 1-9!!
that would be really awesome. and also jsut in general have more unit selection hotkeys besides select next idle unit
for instance
ctrl+q select all engineers
ctrl+w select all mainline infantry (conscripts, grenadiers, etc)
ctrl+e select all snipers
ctrl+a select all MGs
ctrl+s select all mortars
ctrl+d select all at guns
ctrl+f select all arty
ctrl+z select all light vehicles
ctrl+x select all medium vehicles
ctrl+z select all heavy vehicles
This would be a million times faster to sort through my units than using the icons on the right, ctrl+x to select all medium tanks, then click or tab to the specific one i want. and if i want to give an order to all my medium tanks i dont have to do that silly thing where i shift click each one.
and itd keep me from having to assign custom hotkeys a lot of the time, for instance if i only have 1 mortar i wont have to put it in a hotkey group, ctrl+s already exists. (though usually when i have 2 mortars i put them in the same group and then use tab to select the one i want, so id still use ctrl+s)

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.

Rosbone: Relic wants Coh2 to fail so players will migrate to Coh3. It is hard to blame them since Coh3 sucks so bad. It needs all the help it can get.

aerafield: @OKSpitfire tbh I find it quite challenging to get the Pershing in time, having to suffer through the CoH3 tickrate and this endless bullshit meta of massive blobs going back and forth to the forward heal truck
