I think its boring and dumping lots of time and money into something most of us aren't interested in. think of all that time spent on balance or new commanders, if relic plans to do an announcement on MP they should have done it first because now we are all let down and its only going to look like they are making up for it friday. fuck some bug fixes and optimization would be nice.
Maybe it's boring to you, but apparently more than half of the people who originally bought vCOH expansions did it for the single player campaigns. Just think of all copies of COH2 sold versus how big the coh2.org community is. Just because a few hundred people are complaining on these forums doesn't mean the other thousands of COH2 owners don't love campaigns. Relic would not have done it if it wasn't going to be profitable for them, which means they'll have even more money to focus on MP for all of the people who love that here.
