There weren't any marines on the Western Front.

I do hope we get more skins and commanders for USF and OkW

Im pretty sure that it affected his decisions. Being harassed over and over again is not fun at all.

He talked to us personally about this before he made the thread on the official forums and I posted it here. Really, the community had nothing to do with it. He just got an offer from some other company with a new position and wanted to sharpen his skills in that area.

Why is this so "Inversely" logical contradicting?

Since Mr. "Shocks in M3" famous advice, I was like, WTF they hired this guy as a dev

Dude, that was a joke. And not in the sense that he was stupid, he really meant that shocks + M3 comment as a joke.

And this is where all the harassing and constant whining got us to. Im guilty of it myself. Not of the harassing tho..

Anyways, good luck on your future adventures PQ!!!

He didn't leave because of the community.

Dear COH2 Community,

After much thought and consideration, I have decided to move onto a new adventure. January 23 will be my last day at Relic Entertainment. This decision is definitely a difficult one; I will deeply miss you all. Yet I’ve found myself presented with an opportunity that I cannot pass up. To the community, thank you for your endless support. To our Alpha group and modders – for no other reason than your passion for the franchise did you invest countless hours into helping make COH2 the game it is today. Your continued effort and dedication will not soon be forgotten.

The last 2.5 years has been nothing short of amazing. Like many of you, I once was a fan who played countless hours of Company of Heroes and even got around to working on some community mods. Working at Relic has been a dream come true, I got to take my passion and make it a reality. Not only that, I was lucky enough to work with some amazing people; both inside and out of the studio.

I look forward to my transition from a developer back into a fan. To say the least, I am extremely excited about the future of Company of Heroes. The team has some great things in store which I feel will help bring COH2 to a new level. While I may be viewed as one of the more public faces within Relic Entertainment, it is important to emphasize that this is and always has been a team effort. From game design and balance all the way through to art and QA, no decision at Relic is made by any one person. We have worked together as a group to continue to push the franchise forward, and they will continue to do this in my absence. I am looking forward to seeing even more of our hard work made public in 2015.

All the best,
