Feature Request: Online Replay Watching

from Sins Forums
Would it be possible to implement the ability to watch replays online? By this I mean letting multiple people watch one replay. This would be a great educational tool, as teammates go over mistakes and successes, and might even just be fun in general.

I bring this up because it's been mentioned that the netcode is being rewritten in the coming patches, so I'm curious if it would be possible to include this, or maybe even in the future expansion. If this is impossible due to the intracacies of netcode, that's perfectly understandable - but I at least want to throw the idea out there.

While this would be great, it'd also be nice to be able to reverse replays. It's very easy to pass by a critical minute of footage while you're 8x'ing through 30 minutes of nothing.

AFAIK reverse replays, wont be possible as replays are just a "normal" game with saved information from the original played game.

I do agree that an observer mode would be awesome. Sometimes i just like watching a live game in progress :D aka Supreme Commander had this option and i loved it :D
