As I read it the second paragraph of martial maneuvers still applies to using the ability at higher levels.
"If the ability is triggered before the duration expires, the brawler loses the previous combat feat and gains a new one in its place."
Specifically when a 6th level Brawler is eligible to have more than one martial maneuver going at a time can they start using a feat in round 1 as a swift, then in a later round begin using a second feat and continue the first? Or does the second use of martial maneuvers end the first feat as it did from levels 1-5?
In other words does the brawler have to start using two feats simultaneously with the greater action cost or can he use for example Dodge in round 1, then in round 3 when he gets blinded use a swift to gain Blind-Fight? Does Dodge end when he uses martial maneuvers again start Blind-Fight?
You can maintain the second feat without losing it. That's what the ability to maintain two feats means.
Nope. In the example given, he would lose Dodge and gain Blindfight. In order to gain multiple feats through Martial Maneuvers, you need to use the greater action for it. Waiting till a later round and using it again removes the previous feat.
In the discussion thread for the Brawler during the Playtest, this was one of the points brought up especially for higher level play.
the play test forums have been taken down for now.
Actually, you can still get to them - they're just not on the main list of forums.
Here's a link to the front page of the ACG playtest forums.
