You just proved my point, "I'd prefer they focus on *quality of life* features rather than new maps and thumbnails." The game is unpolished in it's current state. Work on polishing the game before worry about things like map variations and unit thumbnails. Quality over quantity.
Be happy that the pickture is correct atleast^^ *hinds to the MG42 pick*
Sooo.... about the matchmaker becoming the core of the MP aspect? Guess that's just never happening.
Just tap enter at the end of the match and chat pops up. Its slick but slightly hidden. Having chat already open and a button to hide it would be nice.
Saying gg is always nice but often the timer hits before I notice and no body sits in chat after a game that I've seen.

Well... disappointing at first glance. I think i will come back when the "soon" division balance + really requested features comes out 
.
.Would be nice to chat with your team mates and maybe tee up another match. Why would they hide the chat?
Chat isn't open by default so that Warchat 2 doesn't emerge. It's a feature not a bug, and a good feature at that. Play some WRD and you'll quickly see why global chat open isn't a good idea, especially in a game where you see global chat every time you hit the escape button.
Why would I want to see "Global chat" at the end of a match? That's just stupid. That's just another example of a badly implemented feature. Even when I join a lobby I'm still in global chat. Who's in charge of quality control at Eugen? It's not like this is their debut game either, they've been developing games for years and we still get this kind of stuff in their games.
Who isn't in charge of quality control, who's on first. What's in charge of quality control.
Once upon a time two incredibly famous dudes called Abbott and Costello made a sketch called Who's on First. It's kind of a big deal.

To be fair, it's about baseball, so you can't expect anyone on our side of the pond to have heard anything about that.
Oh hey sure, it's only been referenced in almost every comedy thing for the past 80 odd years, so I can totally understand the British missing all that.
Must have been the rain.
There are also countries other than the UK on this side of the pond...
Thanks for supporting the game... But this is another kinda underwhelming update, the main highlights in reality being single reoriented old map, new unit portraits, +5/-5 here and there.
Also the notion "We take slow approach", can only mean something along the lines: "We've got like 3-5 tops people left working on SD, rest got moved to other projects..."
What about major game breaking issues like reconnect feature, improved lobby/matchmaking and other non-gameplay related things? Instead resources are being wasted on new unit portraits... Seriously? How is that meant to improve the game? Did anyone actually asked for that? Jeez...
Again, sorry for negativity, but this is just meh...

This game cannot support another underwhelming fluff update, we are into the 300's of average players, from the looks of how slow and anemic these updates have been, my guess is that Eugen has already determine the game to be a flop and not worth dedicating more than a few side programmers on.
Wow... the next underwhelming patch with a big name:
To put this into perspective, this was said about the upcoming patch in "The Duellist":
Which is based on "And Justice for All":
So, in short:
We'll pretty much won't see the amount of balance needed with the next patch.
That they let "special players" test the new patch might sound like a great idea... but it also shows that they have themselves no clue what they do and how it even impacts the game or they don't know how much they can trust their statistics they base the upcoming changes on.
I don't know what is more frightening.
