Ok tried to install it, it said something like "detecting existing files", so I thought...good. Then when I returned it said it's busy downloading remaining files or something. I thought, well ok probably some patch or something, or fixing files. No, it seemingly deleted my 17GB Coh2 folder, kept 1.2GB of it that it decided is part of the "existing files", and now wants to download 15GB. I even checked HD space, no space gained from the now missing 15GB. So this results in a few nights of downloading for me now. I'm just going to get something else to play, probably just had an urge to play a skirmish anyway.

Well, like the title says, the game now shows "install" instead of "play" (obviously meaning I've had it installed and been playing it previously), and when I click install, it wants 36GB hard drive space for the installation. I checked my steam folder, the game is still there (about 17GB). Has this happened to anyone else at some point? I'm just confused to what happened now, as if I were to download presumably 36GB, it will take days to do as I can only download at night time (I get shaped otherwise because of cap, ..because of where I'm from..)

So bottom line, has anyone ever experienced something like this and know a possible way to fix it? How does the game just suddenly become uninstalled according to Steam anyway?

Me and my friend is trying to play, however almost every time either me or him get's kicked out of the game with a message stating that the game has lost connection with Relic server, something along those lines, i'll post a screen shot as soon as I encounter it again which will probably be in the next hour or so, can be at start or mid game or end doesn't matter, just that it happens almost every match now. Not sure if this has something to do with new updates or something? I constantly get to download some update of 13.6 mb, wonder why.

This is one thing that bothers me sometimes about sequels in games.

In CoH1 the AI knew, and did repair bridges if you destroyed them. In CoH2 the AI has no idea how to do it. So now all the AI does when you have blown up all the bridges is run with all their units to the closest points on their side of the river nearest to wherever they're trying to attack you. Which just make them look really stupid and allows me to rocket or artillery fire them easily.

While on the repair subject, a friendly AI do know that your own engineers are able to repair their tanks, and thus crowd your engineers sometimes in the hopes that you will repair their tanks for them, this is when they don't have engineers of their own nearby and also of note this has not been happening too much, but when it does it makes it hard to move your stuff around because of them crowding you.

One thing that's cool though, the Soviet AI know how to use artillery pieces, not the German AI though, as appose to CoH1 where no AI knew how to use them.

Lastly I'm glad the AI don't know how to blow up bridges, that might currently break the game against AI on some maps.

I understand, I was just trying to say why I read this thread before. But didn't respond to it. (courtesy response on your question)
Issuing attack order means that your units will stop at sight of first enemy unit and engage it, most players will not like that happening because they will only move unit to execute tactical move (cap point, flank, etc) Most players don't want their Panther to stop and engage eng squad, leaving it vulnerable to AT gun attack, unless they decide to stop panther to attack target of opportunity.

Hence there isn't much response.

For me attack move is liability move and I would never use it (I think most players would feel the same)

I understand, and I agree with you. I should have titled this threat something like "Enemy HQ still a target after being destroyed." Would have made more sense.
