I agree with most of what you saying but not with the OPTIONAL part.
Imagine one squad of grenadiers with panzershreck and flamethrower...it's not infantry anymore(from the aspect of ranged fighting).The mg drop on the retreat it's ok.
I don't want vCoH to be like CoH2 with reverse button, vaulting and True Sight, what it needs is more simple than implement new things in it, is to make as good as possible the characteristics that already has.
Plus more maps, fix balance, fix bugs, fix ranks, lobby and all the other things that most of people here asking. May be observer mode and better graphics say may be because as I have already said to a previous post I think graphics and sound are pretty strong despite the years.
At least that's what I think.
Whats wrong with the reverse button? What is wrong?
