For myself I don't think this is legit and the wrong way to convince Relic to change the WS-system... Just my two cents
and relic is not abusive and scamming? they advertised something in store and made people to buy X commander and now in a patch they have removed most of commander abilities and replaced them with random stuff? the only and only commander i was playing as Wehrmacht was close air support and now it is totally a useless commander, elite troops now has stormtroops while i paid paid for the doctrine which gives u stormtroops just to have those units, if i knew a commander i already had would get that ability in a patch i wouldn't pay for it. this game is a pay to win scam deny it cause you are a fanboy and nothing more. this game never will be a competitive game and anyone who is winning in tournament is just a noob who has paid for his win. pay to win does not mean once u pay there is a button u press and u win, if u pay for something which gives u advantage in certain situations this is pay to win.
counter strike is competitive because you do not pay real money for your guns and it has no game changing DLC, look at this stupid garbage coh2 and its stupid community who support it blindly the price of DLCs are higher than the normal game and all DLCs are super game changing. they stopped giving you coop DLCs because they tried multiplayer DLC commanders and it worked out really well because of casuals enjoyed to pay and win.
i removed this game after PTRS patch which was anti everything rifle, 2 days ago a friend of mine gifted me brits DLC for free kept asking me to give it another try it is better than the past, and not a week has passed since i installed this game, a patch has arrived which has changed almost every ability of every commander which they advertised and sold for real money also they added two more pay to win DLCs again.
