In general I'd like to see as many new maps make up the pool as possible as performing well on new maps is a better measure of player ability.

Clearly I'm no expert but anyway to extract it a little more manually, like from the particular unit files?

Easy & high value gameplay polishes.

I'll start the ball rolling and add any good ones.


1. Be able to distinguish Allies and Soviet MCV (deployed and undeployed).
- particularly important if you want to steal enemy tech.


2. Some permanent indication of which is your primary (not just when it is assigned).

Fix semi-broken replay?? How to.

A huge game I was playing, long and epic, froze after ~3 hours, I'd like to peruse the replay but it lacks some functionality, specifically no way to see whole map (all players) or no shroud and critically no way to see the stats. Anyway to fix??? long shot I know.

reckon it should cause nuke to malfunction and drop on one of their own team spots BUT only has 30s effect (or stg). - if launched in that window-(not auto launch!).

So basically it's huge effect but requires some anticipation/guess work/luck to get the effect.

There are lots of great team games but few make it to the replay arena.

Re: International Matches. Fight for the pride of your natio

I'd like to see countrymen pitted against each other, either casually or less casually in a league format to see who is the best (cough *UK*). I reckon it would be fun and spice up the team game scene. Anyone want to organize it, set it up.??. Edit: Not sure how we would do it, maybe some sort of a...

Zombies versus dogs, protect the villagers (or something)

Tanya versus zombies.

Both would need a mod map or starting units.

Oh man, a database of the different units and their pros/negs/armour etc would be great. I literally cannot see the unit descriptions in game with my setup atm :D There is a table with the stats of each units bouncing around, not a strategy guide but gives you some info. Let me see if I can find it...

Didn't the sniper get removed for not being original artwork? If the choice was made not to include custom artwork by default, does it make sense to push for custom artwork on a helicopter, where original artwork is already available? Not that I'm against making new artwork, just seems like it coul...

I think just change the artwork for the hind and rename it, maybe a cobra or huey. Basically it would wreck balance, so no.

I'll probably do a guide or at least a good portion of it, covering the basics and sound advice. The problem as I see it however though is that the vast majority of the information is in the game, mostly everything you need, there are very few hidden features or op strats. My point is that essential...
