In my opinion, the new commander portrait's do not reflect the look of the other portraits and stand out to the point of making it look like a mod is being used and not in a good way.


In your opinion, should they be changed?

You leave my Sad Soviet Walrus Commander alone. Guy just needs a hug... and possibly a bucket of fish.

Yea the commanders look different but Relic most likely paid someone to make them so having them change is highly unlikely.

At least one guy on that planet - me. Even more, i care about difference between 2013 and 2014 commander portraits and about a lot of other UI stuff in that game. You can verify it with my signature. :wave:

But why do they all need to look equal? Why can't each "period" of coh2 history have its own commander portrait look? :D


If you take a picture with your smartphone, do you think "damn, why does this photo look so different than the photos from 50 years ago?"? :snfPeter:

Is this is really such a big concern?

I see your point, but there is some basic rules, which all commanders should follow. It's about good UI support, which was brand identity of vCoH. No matter when they were created.

P.S. If smartphone remain the same, then the quality of both pictures should be near by the same. ^_^

I'm probably the guy who cares least about aesthetics but just look weird in people's decks, I mean while others fill right in but these guys stick out like a sore thumb, if you just zip through a 4v4 loading screen for like a sec or 2 you will instantly know who's got a new commander in the deck or not, I didn't at least even need to take a closer look to be sure.

"but these guys stick out like a sore thumb"


Honestly, this sums it up perfectly, they're not particularly bad looking, just stand out.

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:
