First things first, quote from this article:

http://www.gamespot.com/articles/company-of-heroes-2-developer-discusses-new-armies-and-dangers-of-historical-accuracy/1100-6419944/

There’s also a bunch of stuff outside of the core armies that original Company of Heroes 2 players will get, such as custom games lists, user-generated content, and mod support.

Also a good read:

Looks like the OKW are similar to the brits, with the base buildings anyway.

Relic has so far been like a politician, promising much but delivering little.

I'd be wary of them actually allowing modding

did you call him a mong for leaving us?. and lying to us about modding ?

[nikomas]

So... Americans and Brits had a baby and all the new stuff is things we've seen in mods already? Is there actually any new unit in there (as compared to CoH mods) at all? Just wondering.

That aside, I actually like a lot of what I saw there so I might try this.

OH GOD, SHERMANS GET GROUP ZEAL AT VET 1, MOTHER OF ARMOR BLOBS.
Oh, all allied armor can bail and repair their own tanks appearetly.
OH GOD, SLUGGER/JACKSON HAS 60 RANGE, AMERICAN FF...

Doesn't sound like it'll be balanced, but sounds to fun... lol

Honestly all they have done, is take mods from CoH and create a whole new franchise.

You can't blame Relic for that though. There were several different vehicles out there and the most recognizeable ones have been taken as units in Mods. It isn't their fault that there weren't more available creations

[GORKHALI]

More smoke for allies

Not quite sure that the M20, Scott and M15A1 (Seen in trailer,Bofors/2x 50.) count as most recognizable.

[GrayWolf]

Well I bought it because of the units. Why are you qqing anyway ? You don't want vehs or what ?

[Unkn0wn]

I wish they'd rework the shifty UI and finally optimise the engine .

[EliteGren]

Anyone else got a key for the WFA alpha, for some 2v2?

[hans]

holy shit did someone watch the stream? that fat guy in front has a horrible voice :O

[Hicks58]

From the sounds of it, the guy most likely has a speech impediment.

I'm not particularly fond of PQ, but I imagine he was able to put up with it because he doesn't judge a colleague on their voice.

Perhaps that guy wasn't the best choice for hosting a stream based on his voice, but I wonder what it says for you two when you're shitting on a guy for something that is most likely completely out of his control.

[Hicks58]

So that's a legitimate reason to rip the piss out of him, why?

Speech impediment or lost his voice, what does it matter?

You know, I could wrap my head around the whole "Haha he's fat" train of thought - A piss poor train of thought to have, but an understandable one due to the fact that the majority of people inflict it upon themselves besides a few legit medical cases...

Actually, sod it. This is the EiRR forums where we exploit anybody's and everybody's vulnerabilities in a heartbeat. Carry the fuck on.

[XIIcorps]

I dont have an appendix. Im sub human. Exploit me.

[Smokaz]

One of the guys I work with has a speech impediment when he's not stoned.

If a person with that affliction isn't competition or cruel to you it seems low to harass them for it.

[Hicks58]

He wasn't on a broadway show, he was a dev just doing a stream in much the same way as something like an EiRR dev putting up a stream to show off something new.

If it were the guy's job to be doing streams 24/7, I'd have seen the comments as harsh but legit.

However, it looks to me like you're just trying to rationalise being a dick.

[nikomas]

Nobody else think it's ironic that Tig is the one taking flak for this for once?

[Mister Schmidt]

And now is the time for both of you to stop.
