Well, I think the first problem is that they really created an envy problem among the masses.

Now I have seen someone's calculations on the community forums: there is a .01% chance or less of a commander drop in an average length game apparently. And then you go into games and see someone with double new commanders. It's aggravating. I play a lot, but I've only gotten one OKW commander.

The bigger problem is the commanders as drops themselves. Relic has a history of releasing OP commanders that affect gameplay terribly. There's a consensus building that the Rifle commander with the EZ8s and vet infantry is quite OP, maybe even more perniciously OP than the Tiger Ace was because this commander has a number of extremely good abilities that affect the game along its whole length (you could sometimes win against an Elite Troops user before he could get an Ace, and the vetting was definitely not the huge issue).

We know it takes a while for Relic to listen to the masses crying OP even in obvious cases like SovInd and Elite Troops, but since a limited number of people are playing with this commander, it's just going to take much longer for them to modify it.

Meanwhile those of us who do play competitively and already are seeing this commander over and over are getting frustrated.

Other than that, it's a system that could have been much better. A point system to get commanders with random drops of bulletins and skins would have been ideal. If skins and bulletins were the only drops, no one would be complaining.

Shepard - did I miss something or are these rotation commanders going to be for sale? The current ones already were. But the new ones aren't last time I checked. If they are for sale, and people are still complaining, well, god help them.

After this patch tonight it has been really bad. It's definitely a server issue because when I logged in the "connecting" message appeared and it took a while for the automatch to load up.

Had 3-4 games of horrible freezes, and one full-on disconnect (the others I had to abandon the games as freezing for 20 secs in an RTS is basically 2-3 units gone). But my last one it just cleared up, so something got unborked, I would imagine...

But since WFA it has been intermittent, I get it infrequently but still enough to be annoying. Tonight has just been insane.

Nevix: You know what kills parablobs good? You remember that upgrade on the halftrack? I think it does some kind of crazy flame attack. I think I saw people using these before a few months ago, but I could be wrong.

Seriously, I've pulled out the flamen a few times against US blobs where zooks weren't a threat. It's really, really good.

When I want to be nice and hand someone a game on this map as Axis, I always make sure to send everything to the 1 VP side instead of camping the side closest to the north bases with two VPs. That was a really brilliant early decision that allowed our community celebs to build momentum toward having no chance in hell of winning the game! While at the same time putting up enough of a fight that these noobs thought their skill was actually behind the win. Way to go guys!

Also - dat unit preservation Ami Those vet 5 Obers...So nice of you to give them the satisfaction of taking that out with an ISU shot to a 1-man squad! You really had them going!

The best one is from months ago, but Google only reveals me quoting it, it ought to be in one of his replays from last year...

"You stand before me as a noob and I don't even want to save and you play the video."

Oh, I found it:

http://www.coh2.org/replay/13533/he-say-ban-me/page/1

I modified it slightly, the original is "he say ban me,You Is it right? Lost to my 4 game was not convinced, you are in front of me is a noobs,I don't even want to save and you play the video, please you awake, you could not recognize you in 3 consecutive hours lost to my 4 game"
