Well this commanders thing seem a lot like COH online, with players only been able to switch between them a few times in a game, according to the PCGZing article.

What do you guys think about it?

I fear the COHO effect

So that's what the commander archetypes are. It seems CoH2 is fairly influenced by CoH Online. Hope the beta starts soon. Hard to know what to think until I've tried it.

He didn't say that, he said that before the game you can take 3 commanders (doctrines) and once you are ingame you can switch between your commanders a few times, as if you could change your doctrine ingame. At least this is what I understood

Yes you unlock them with Command Points I guess

(it's just under the 1st ability)

single or multiplayer?

Commanders are for multiplayer, the stuff you read in the quinn's duffy interview is related to coop and single player.

Hmm good question, maybe the one in the left corner, I just can't think at what it could be useful for

It will be better than coh online just by letting you change them while your in game, or it would have took away a tactical element of game play which can be really useful while playing.

The cloud thingy under the temperature meter (I have no clue what it is, on a second thought it might be the CP ammount) I'd guess is the button for the tactical map?

Well allowing you to switch commanders while fighting certainly gives you some strategic flexibility. Could certainly also lead to some interesting strategic shifts in a fight.

could be interesting^^
maybe you can switch your commander for some CP
or you have to research something for the switch

Or it just has a more direct resource cost. Who knows ?

it could be also possible that you can "build" your own doctrins like it was in coh: o

so you have a unit and ability pool and can build out of these your 6 doctrin abilitys/call-ins
