1. Not only that, i prefer news that fetch from wz2100.net/news so it will be updated automatically when someone update it

2. Probably you've seen it, it's some suggestions BB and me discuss maybe worth to implement it Change needed in Forum rules
3. Change player to bot if a player quit while he can still playing to maintain game balance
4. Chat language conversion: example Terminator write something in Russian, when I got it my computer it's English or Italian or else based on my warzone language.Probably using
  • Parse chat string to online translator. :twisted:
  • Ask community to make translation tool and use it, so we just need to match string word by word is it need to be convert from/to english then it will be printed on other player screen. Since it using word by word so no grammar (had better idea?), at least they know what you want, vice versa :lol2: . <- This could be invented on client or server side, on client-side we can ask player to update it regularly every time user enters online lobby or automatically if there is an internet connection.
