Replay System Feedback

Slippers

Hi Relic/and or players,

After messing around in the replay system for the purposes of making some videos, I figured that I'd offer my feedback and critique on the system.
Video link can be found below:

First 5 mins = bugs.
The rest = additional features to consider adding.

If you want the written summary, here's my rather detailed description from the above video:

Bugs I've noticed (only the bugs I've experienced, might be more):
- File name and details disappearing on selection.
- Incorrect doctrines displaying in the replay, often seemingly random doctrines from other races.
- Replay files that were saved being randomly lost.

Additional Features (that would really add to the replay system as a whole):
- More UI customising options in a replay, ideally the option to remove the replay box in favour of the below ...
- Replay options tied instead to hotkeys
- The option to choose between either the current replay settings "box" or saving the screen space and using hotkeys.
- The functionality to jump back and forth through the replay, currently can only go forwards at varying speeds.
- Functionality to traverse the map and otherwise still interact with the items on screen once a match replay ends.

Hope this helps with future patches, and thanks for another awesome game relic!

I assume viewing replays created before a hot/fix cant be viewed anymore because of engine limitations, right?

Yep, they dropped the ball with this one. The core game is fine, but everything else is a rushed mess: menus, user profile section, replay section, replay capabilities... Could be worse given what passes for a finished game nowadays, I guess.
