In this season it would be nice to see some overview of the post-game stats. Usually as soon as the GG hits that's it. There may be a bit of post match banter but nothing major.

What I'd really like to see in the new season is guest casters (i.e good players who have a solid grasp of the games economy and whatnot) really give us some post match analysis of the numbers, looking at unit effectiveness %s, territory gains/loss and army value statistics and such, and really bringing the player's strats into perspective to show what play styles are effective against others. I think CoH2's system would allow for some really good info for new players especially

That would be sweet!

Good luck with the sponsorships nonetheless!

*excited*

I don't really understand this change. The people that enter automatch are informed by knowing how many others are searching, and which factions are being searched. Players that play both factions will often switch to the faction that is less represented so that they get a game quicker. This info is useful on many levels.

I do this. Although I can't anymore.

When you are matched with someone instead of showing each player's level on the load screen it should have an arrow. Either a downward red arrow (indicating player is of a lower ladder position than you) or a green upward pointing arrow (indicating higher ladder rank) - simple information that is not rendered useless because of grinding.

Nice post Barton. I think this commander vs mechanised armour commander will make for some interesting games

Fuck's sake man...

I think unless your opponent goes for a clown car, you don't have to build any tiers if you don't want.

AGrens give you enough anti inf power to compete early game - their only real threat is clown car with flamer, the 5 man squad and rapid damage means snipers are shagged.

If your opponent goes for a fast T34 then you should follow the standard. But i think this doctrine means you can 'float' in the way that although you can tech up, you are given the option (through call ins) not to build a particular tier building at all.

using the Agrens you can rack up enough CP's early and can have a stug out that causes havok to infantry (a little too much IMO) that means you are given the option to either A, tech T3/T4 if you suspect armour is coming or B, hold out for the Tiger (maybe using Paks or grens as a stop-gap.

I just won a game without going past T2 (although I did the teching, I just didnt build the buildings) the guy spammed KV1s and my tiger destroyed them with anti-inf backup from the stug. All in all I'd say the damage on some of this commanders units need tweaking, but it's meant to be a mechanised commander - in which I think design wise it succeeds.
