I've played a handful of online battles and the speed seemed right in those battles too. The maps are larger and the controls are more robust (you need to learn the shortcuts). I think you need to give it some time and let go of MTW preconceptions (as great a game as that is).

I think it is a shrinking minority that thinks the speed is too fast.
I don't find the speed to be an issue. If anything, I speed the game up when marching on the battlefield.
