Design direction

So after these 2 years we have not only the eastern front, but also 'murricans and brits. What I like in recent patch is that they removed that fighting-over-the-river video and replaced it with the armies' flag, but there is still much to be done.

Not counting the obvious things like the Stalingrad assault pic during the loading of main menu (replace it with Europe map?) or maybe adding western front themed buttons in online and skirmish menu, how about linking the ingame music to the selected army, like in menu? Map names are already not to be believed in, as we have US forces fighting in an industrial city which would be named Stalingrad if it had Soviets fighting in it. What I cannot stand is having western themed music while playing Soviets and, much more irritating, vice versa.

If this game's focus shifted from 'ebin 3ast3rn fr0nt sk1rm1shez feat MOST BRAEV soviet ruskie versus nazi 3vil moorderers' to European War Simulator I'd like to see it revamped as a whole, not only gameplay.

relic doesn't seem to have a solid design direction so i'm not going to bother making a wishlist.

I think they tried to have the factions use their own music during all battles, but for some reason they seemed to have trouble getting it to work during wfa alpha. So I guess they ended up just setting it to the maps.

I like the sleek CoH1 UI better. They should enable something like that in options.

I know it's probably out of the scope of relic's plans, but I would love this. CoH2 UI is so cluttered.

Modding tools maybe

I'd much rather have Relic focus on bug fixes along with the new faction rather than loading screens and buttons. Plus we all know they'd find a way to break those too.
