Looks interesting. I like the way that they adress veterancy. Even if I havent tested it myself, it looks like it makes more sense.

Great to see new maps, even if they are remakes and adaptations. The worldbuilder will really be fun to sink the teeth in, and hope the community will be able to push out new interesting maps.

Also hope that the chat/semi-lobby can bring in new and old players that left. I actually think the overall idea with this chat is really good. Will be interesting to see how it works out in the end.

Not sure I will try out the fast camera option, quite happy with it atm.

Like the CTRL button thing, and to be able to add players after a game more easy sounds great. Still looking at the steam leaderboards? Are they actually working? Totally broken not long ago.

Hope that the changes towards buildings have the desired effect. Not sure it will kill MG play though. But I would like to see some kind of incentive to diversify ostheer builds. One way would be to diversify unitcosts. Make MG slightly cheaper, increase cost for grens slightly.

About patches overall. Relic is far more supportive than many other developers I have seen. Also, claiming they dont test stuff before it comes out is also kind of strange when they stream their beta build live, and considering they got so much stuff crammed in there that they must be several patches ahead of us in beta build. That said, the overall efficiency of the last released commanders really upset meta in live enviroment, but it feels like it has settled somewhat now. There will always be patches, nerfs and buffs to new units or abilities. Thats just the way it works. If not, the system would be truly broken.

I also agree to the testament that relic needs an ongoing funding to be able to continue working with their product. And I also agree that paid content should be restricted to skins, faceplates, ToV or similar features. Introducing paid commanders was a step in the wrong direction, but it cant be rolled back now once they started. Just got to live with it. Still, the pricing on the commanders is to steep. Should be alot cheaper to get content, this way, I think more players would get it. If lucky, this would actually increase revenue (even after steams cut) and less moaning on forums etc.

Good question, dont think so though, also hope that they dont. Waiting for the slowest guy and the whole find cover, clump up before retreat would be even more frustrating.

Srsly. That drives me insane. Nothing is more irritating than idle units you've already given commands to.

agreed, this needs work

I think a good addition would be to be able to show more recent topics. The forum tree design, and the possibility to choose what forum section you want to go to, without ever visiting the main forum page I think adds to threads clogging in the coh central. Even better something like "unread threads" so you can catch up, but figure thats even more work...

I dont want OP commanders in any way. And I think there is a problem when the paid commanders feature units and abilities not available for free.

That said, Im with gunshy on this. I will buy to support relic. Simple as that and I have no issues with it. Im always counting money paid/time played. And counthing this way, CoH2 is still very cheap to me comparing to other games.
