And in these won games, I'm unable to wrap it up quickly by dealing a killer blow. Even when I dominate and am certain I will win, I still have to kill a couple waves of fresh opponent units because of the weird MP system. When I have units out of the wazoo, I have only enough MP to reinforce a conscript squad per minute while my opponent is getting fresh squads, which isn't even particularly a comeback enabler but rather drags the game out.
The game has a faster pace in terms of getting to vehicles more quickly and having more destroyed stuff. But it also drags. A lot. Vehicle pathing often prevents effective chasing of units, too.
Agreed, your opponent may suck but it's still going to take you 20 minutes to finish him off. Annoying as hell.
