RE: Supply in WITE 2 compared to earlier version and reality?

<t> I believe this is mostly the result of the fact, that in hindsight you can spot a lot of things that went wrong.<br/>
<br/>
And now come 3 things:<br/>

a) supposedly there was an easy way to do things better (e.g. produce 3 panthers instead of 1 tiger or whatever supply management the ...

RE: WHEN?

<t> As a software developer, "release asap" and "release at an artificial date for completely out of development reasons" are both giving me massive nightmares. And sadly, that's the industry standard, and I wish somehow the devs here can escape this and release the product when they feel it's ready ...

RE: Soviets Activated....

Don't throw supply crates over board of your ship when there is a danger of them floating to the Russian shore? That's a good lesson to learn.

It looks like a tower hit destroyed all communication arrays. All combatants are considered MIA. :[

You already had 2 SSX torp hits more than most of us ever had!
I thought their only purpose was to empty the Allies ASW ammo stores.
