you may need to poke it occasionally to help it along. i haven't used it so i'm not really sure what the specifics are; maybe someone else can help with that.
it cuts both ways. people will get pissed if they promise and don't deliver but they should have the big shit figured out far enough in advance to drop some information. when they don't drop any they're either too scared, not on schedule, or are being mismanaged. stuff life, "the next factions are X and Y" or "our focus for the next month will be bugs but we have a balance patch in the works"...
and then there is shit like acknowledging bugs BEFORE they ruin matches for a week...
the soviet sniper is boring as fuck to use and frustrating as fuck to play against. OKH sniper is fun but frustrating to use and i'm not really sure what it's like to play against because they're not seen much and don't tend to cause problems.
while the captain takes forever, especially when your early game options are worst infantry squad in the game and solid but basic squad. pushing back OKW tech and lefttenant tech for USF would help with that.
yeah, i would suggest uninstalling the game and coming back if something causes you to reinstall it. i'm debating doing that again myself, but for different reasons. also, if you do that, make sure you fill out the survey.
can someone please just pin a bulletin thread with all the answer in it? this i like the 4th thread with "do X bulletins stack?" in it in about a month.
another option for t1/2 is to swap the M15 and the 57mm (giving both tiers some kind of AT and suppression) and then lower the cost of the captain some so they have a start more similar to soviets/OKW and diversify from there.
as far as higher tiers go and delaying the jackson... they're not going to change the base model and i don't want it bigger/more convoluted. there is room for some kind of upgrade and/or more units in t0. you could move the jackson and either move or create something else in tier 0 but lock it behind a global upgrade, possible one that gives a unit or something.
i like the general suggestion though and if a higher level officer is added giving him more plane options would be cool. a single pass pinning run or something.
