I've followed the majority of these so called whinge threads and have commented in a few so I will not take to much space here.
How about a toggle switch with different levels of difficulty? Some settings that come to mind are; elite(realistic as hell), veterans(for those of us that are not elite), green(doh) or I'm sure someone has a better idea as to names. This *toggle switch* seems to me an acceptable compromise.
Not everyone is comfortable with the settings as they exist, BTS has commited to some tweaking with the patch.....perhaps in CM3 the elites would not need to compromise, the veterans could become elites, and the greens, well their learning curve would be more gentle and the dropout rate may shrink.

PS. for the spelling and grammer grogs, if there are any errors, sorry....my secratary does my proofing and she ain't here.
