Hey, we went into detail about this in our december 2014 update, and you can find the answer to your exact question in this post :)

Hey, sorry for the late reply
We arent planning on making changes for the uniforms at the current time, we havent got the manpower or time to handle costmetic changes to models at the moment, but thanks for the suggestion!

Havent got anything like that yet, but it would be interesting trying it out :)

Looking good!

The !medic command is simply a server plugin, not part of the actual game. In 2.0 every player is equipped with a field dressing which works almost the same way however.

Not allowing any of the MG's to be hipfired is a gameplay decision that was made pretty early on in order to prevent ramboing. It would be difficult for riflemen to counter something like that in close quarters battle. In 2.0 the Machinegunner has a sidearm though, so that helps him with situations like that.

Noted down all of these suggestions :)

These are light machine guns, not medium, and they only have small bipods for deployment, so I think it's OK that they are carried by one man.

I didn't realize that till I entered the game :P I'm a Nooooooob :3

Also, WWI didn't really use Light machine guns, I thought. It was mainly a user of MMGS. (a british unit tended to have 4 MMGS, while a russian one tended to have 8) however someone explained it to me that due to size limits on source servers (which is weird, because I thought you could up the size to at least 32) MMGS aren't a usable source. also, is the running animation fixed in 2.0?

Light machine guns were frequently used from the middle point of the war right to the end of it. The Brits had the Lewis Gun, the Germans had the MG08/15 and the French used the Chauchat. Thousands of these weapons were manufactured, so they werent a rare sight. You'll see the Lewis and Mg08/15 in 2.0.

Also, not sure if there was anything ever wrong with the running animations in older versions, but we're using new animations in 2.0, so it should be fixed :)

We won't change a whole lot of the actual behaviour of the gas as we feel like it worked pretty weill in 1.13b and previous versions. What we will change however, is how the gas mechanics work all together. Your gas mask takes longer to get on, and if you inhale any of it it has a bit more of a brutal effect on the player than it had in 1.13b. Your screen will blur up, and you will slowly lose HP while the game plays some pretty dramatic coughing and choking sounds. We want to make the gas in the game a pretty grousome weapon in a way, and we will probably go into detail a whole lot more about it in a later update. And yes, the current particle we use for the gas-attack should allow for some cover.

Sorry, we can't comment on anything regarding a release date!
