It's not rocket science and to be honest, most if not all of these features have been around for some time. However we keep seeing new games released, with a lot of these basic features missing. Click here to view the list of features we've been asking for since 2001

Looks like the PC community is getting a sample of CoD:WWII beta starting Sept 29th till Oct 2nd and does not look like you have to pre order the game first.
Now, the Multiplayer Beta is coming to PC as an Open Beta for all PC gamers.
Together with Raven Software, we’re excited to share that the Call of Duty: WWII Open Multiplayer Beta on PC will kick off on September 29th and run through October 2nd on Steam.
The PC Open Beta is just a small part of the full Call of Duty: WWII Multiplayer experience coming to Steam in November. This test is a critical step on our road to delivering the best possible online experience on Steam at launch in November, with the following key goals:
Stress test core gameplay systems and online backend infrastructure at scale
Provide PC fans with their first hands-on experience of the boots-on-the-ground combat coming in Call of Duty: WWII Multiplayer
Engage with the PC community to fine-tune and optimize the PC experience for November
Here are the minimum PC specs you’ll need to play in the Beta test. Please note that these specs are for the Beta only. In our next update, we’ll share the recommended PC specs for the Beta, since we’re finalizing this part of our testing as we speak.
Min Spec: OS: Windows 7 64-Bit or later CPU: Intel® Core™ i3 3225 or equivalent RAM: 8 GB RAM HDD: 25 GB HD space Video: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 660 @ 2 GB / AMD Radeon™ HD 7850 @ 2GB or better DirectX: Version 11.0 compatible video card or equivalent Network: Broadband Internet connection Sound Card: DirectX Compatible
These specs could change following the PC Open Beta, so we’ll share the final specs closer to launch.
Thanks to ReShade, veterans and new players alike will be able to enjoy the newly updated visuals for a classic FPS. The release date for this mod is not very far away at all, the 5th of November is when the first version of the mod will be available and the final version is expected for 2018.
In case you missed the above, we announced the Australian Forces are the next faction coming to Rising Storm 2 at our PAX panel! With the Australian update we are of course adding the Australian forces along with the following weapons, vehicles and abilities:
