***** howdy,
I'm a new player to EIR. In fact, I've just finally got my company set up and hope to get my first game in this weekend.
I see that your new version is getting closer to coming out, but that by doing so, you'll lose quite a bit of functionality for a while for the current game.
Is there any chance you are planning to allow the current version to exist side by side with version 2? My CoH group really loves vCoH and while plays OF, really prefers the US vs Wehr match ups much better. Reading the relic forums, many others feel the same way.
I'm currently trying to get my group to join and would simply hate to see the current version go away. Since it is a mod, couldn't it have its own directories so that players could either choose to go with 1.44 or 2.0?
Anyways, just a thought. I'm really looking forward to playing this and am really excited after seeing those vidcasts. Best way to promote the game in my opinion.
***** Brother G.

This is a version of the game a lot of people have been waiting for. While the British and PE are not ideal to suit everyone's tastes, it is the next step for this mod. I think, in choosing to keep version 1, you will be in a minority and thus won't be able to find games.

To answer your question, that's what I originally wanted to do. However, after thinking it over, we pretty much came to the conclusion that the community couldn't support two iterations of it. We simply don't have enough players?

I think his problem is the loss of functionality in 2.0, like no doctrines and such.

Most likely doctrines will not be included with the initial release.

Why? Doctrines are what makes the game fun.

I expect they are being left out because they won't be done by whenever 2.0 comes out.

Yes lets all say this together now: No doctrines in the initial release of 2.0. New and improved doctrines will return in 2.x |

The game will also be easier to balance with the brits and pe if we cant slap each other with tier abilities. There will be enough bitching without them allready  |
