Possible leak on March 31st patch notes

lol, Relic turned out to be very excited, very excited about making more money at the expense of their fans!

Relic's Final Fan:

Durability is bullshit. I can't believe they're bringing it back.

Relic's Final Fan:

Looks nothing like me

I cannot belive I read this whole thread. loved it. Good stuff.

And yes, it totally proves that this community is longing for some info really really badly. So am I.

Nerf that damn OKW

So march 31st is the date when relic will put the final bullet in coh2's head.

Ok let's face the absolute worst case:

Relic adds a upkeep system for commander abilities or bulletins. You need to repair them once in a while in order to make them usable again.

So we know Relic. It would be: 'Sorry you have to play 20 games to repair all your stuff... or pay us 2.99$ '

Jesus....

He has to pay as well.

The sad thing is:
I can't tell if your post is meant in a ironic, angry, resigned or realistic way.

Thanks for the first laugh this morning

I guess it's more realistic as I want to admit.
The 20 games and the 2.99$ are exaggerated, sure. But I am really afraid that Relic will add such a system because they already did it in CoH and it was not really good. In my opinion it was a catastrophe.

Repairing function would only apply to custom commanders, since you can't change the dlc commanders which people paid money for!

Wanna bet?

There would be a lot of people sending refund requests to steam. In some countries they would have to do it.

Wanna bet?

I'd be willing to take up that bet. They likely aren't going to mess with commanders already sold. Unless they allow you to craft them into abilities or something as that one poster speculated.

The twist is I want them to change the existing commander system so badly so we can finally see some new ones. Choice between Shock Armoured Frontline or Counterattack gets stale after a while. So even if I lose the bet I will be happy.

Custom commanders i wonder how would they look like...
OST
Troop training
Spotting scopes
Stuka close air support
Redistribute resources
Tiger Tank

Soviets
Guard infantry
B4 203mm howitzer
For Mother Russia
Recon overflight
T34/85 Medium tanks

Custom commanders i wonder how would they look like...

We've been over this. They will limit the abilities on custom commanders in certain ways. We already know there will be epic and rare (and by extension, uncommon and common) commander abilities.

I would prefer even more fine tuning of a system. If Relic was clever they could create a system that would provide incredible creativity and emergent complexity with a few simple rules.

For example they should incentivise using some currently less used abilities by giving them synergy bonuses. E.g. if you pick Soviet Tank Traps your 5th ability comes 1CP sooner. Conversely, if you pick Tiger Ace, all other abilities come 1 or 2 CPs later. If you pick Tiger you cannot pick another vehicle call-in. If you pick Irregulars, all your ammo-based commander abilities cost -20% to cast. Or, if you pick Guards, any ability labeled "Mechanized" (for example T34 85 call-in) costs 15% less etc. Or, you cannot have "Defensive" and "Offensive" abilities at the same time in the same commander. But if you have at least three "Infantry" tagged abilities you get some joint bonus. Or, if you have Tiger, Ace, ISU or IS2 in loadout, these abilities cost much more supply to "repair" than a medium callin. Etc.

Soviets
Guard infantry

Guards so stronk now that soviet players realized they would imbalance the game too much and have all agreed to not use them at all

c´mon no-one has seen how good Guards are with "For the motherland" ability
