Although there are some exceptions, the .com is overflowing with teen-aged imbeciles and raving fanboys (who incidentally, are usally not veteran STW or MTW players) who foam at the mouth even when constructive criticism is offered. The reaction you received isn't really suprising. Of course if you were flamed over there its just a sign that they couldn't counter any point that you made. When they can't debate your points, they launch into personal attacks out of desperation. It's a shame though that vets of the series have to put up with this nonsense from the newbies.If you post at .com that the increased speed of RTW is detrimental to the gameplay, you will be called names and told to shut up. The majority of the posters at .com like the speed in the RTW demo, and don't want battles to take longer than 15 minutes. They come from the world of games like StarCraft, WarCraft and C&C.
I couldn't agree more that the increased speed is detrimental to gameplay.
