Personally, I was expecting that they would replace the logo with a :KT: for the weekend as a massive troll

Is it the same (hopefully native speakers) VAs who do the German/Russian and the English dialogue? Gary Oldman may deliver a powerful portrayal of a betrayed soviet soldier, but his accent is just not on. In real life Russian and German accents don't sound as stereotypical, often you can't even pin them past "Eastern Bloc".

Nice update.

Wery vell done, comb-raids!

You guys really did not expect a release before June, right? I know, sad but still

[ductape3]

We were hoping

But thanks a ton for doing this Alan, Its nice to hear how the game is progressing.

[Alexander Ostmann]

Thank you for the good update!

A random question: will we get a little input into the content and structure of the selectable commands? It may be too late for that, but I've always found that selecting commands or warnings to be too awkward and time consuming to be useful. There have been options that I've found useless and others that I wish were there. Any chance we can "crowd-source" some of these in the forums?

We saw in the video the commander's sort of "pie chart" command system. Perhaps that'll also extend to regular grunt's communication.

It took some time, but it is nice to see that TWI have
found the way to deal with veteran side of community.

Those weekly updates are really nice. Much better
than reading new articles from some random game
magazines with same content we have read again and again
(Ofcourse those are needed to get new players).

Lot of detailed information about the game there, which
makes us allways happy.

Keep it coming, thumps up.

I'm all for him on any level. Flash Gordon is one of my all time favourite movies. I had a sore stomach after watching it from laughing so much.

I'm actually really excited to try out the SP.

Almost reminicent of the older video games where parts of it were left to the players imagination...

Aside from that I wont have to worry about the imersion breaker where a short cutscene leads into you doing impossible/ cheezy thing X , Y , Z ...
