Nice, man! I love mods! So their project is basically just creating new units?

I agree I like skin 1 and 2 better. But if most of the Ost vehicles will look like Skin 3 I think that's a better choice. I like them all very much and they all look fan-freaking-tastic, I just like 1 and 2 for their relic-look-alike type of coloring. To me Skin 3 is dark and looks like something to use on a darker woodland map.

I think we should use historically accurate camo patterns. Relic's fantasy skins are terrible.

no thay would mean that the devs must replace also the vanilla skins and changing vanilla wont happen.

and yes i like the vanilla look of pic 1 and 2 :D

Many things in Company Of Heroes are inaccurate or exaggerated. It's part of the charm. ;)

IMO Fieldgrey war machine skins > Relic skins > Camo fruit skins, but that's just me.

I do think that OH following Relic's skinning scheme is best though.

I hope it'll be possible for somebody to make an MP compatible OH skinpack though.

I'm sorry, but I just can't take the Germans (or anybody for that matter) seriously in Relic skins.

I find a game where you blow the living sh*t out of people and shred them apart with machine guns to be hardly a joke.

Yes, the gameplay isn't neccesarily historically accurate but atleast make the visuals so. Please, at least.

There is plenty of comedy spread amongst the chaos, though.

And that comedy can still be funny with historic uniforms and skins.

I'm not saying it can't - I'm just saying that the skins don't need to be historically accurate, because the game isn't really about that. Whatever the devs choose to use, i'll be happy with.
