PanzerMike Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Triggers, yup. They work great. Scenario design will never be the same again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankster65 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Yeah, the triggers capability really caught my eye. The engine is indeed evolving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PanzerMike Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Yes, for me triggers are probably the greatest addition to the engine. Watching the AI react when you are testing a scenario is really cool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collingwood Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 What an awesome surprise. Absolutely. The last time I tried making single player scenarios was CMSF, and found the lack of triggers made it hard for me to create satisfactory scenarios. Now I can't wait to get back into the editor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denwad Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Were there triggers in CMX1? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Were there triggers in CMX1? Technically no but the victory flags mostly insured that the AI would attack/counter attack you if you controlled one. It was imperfect but did get the enemy moving (but not always). What we have now would be the best of both worlds in my opinion. Lots more control on the designer's part and the ability to provide some mid game counter attacks without having to guess where or when the player will be at certain locations in the scenario.

Sequoia Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Don't get me wrong I love all the new stuff but I have a grog question on the lack of American made jeeps. I would have assumed they were more common then Gaz jeeps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 We're going to add an American Jeep, but wound up deciding it would go in with the rest of the Lend Lease equipment. We did make an exception for the Studebaker 6x6 because it was the most prevalent truck for hauling around the larger guns. Functionally the US Jeep and the Gaz are identical. They drive about 4 guys around the map really fast then blow up Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also will we have Soviet recon troops in camo coveralls like so 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I know I can probably Google this to find out but it appears that the Su-122 came out before the Su-100 as the former is in the game and the later isn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanir Ausf B Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 A quick check says the SU-100 entered production in September 1944, but I don't see anything right away about first combat. Come to think of it, I have not yet seen the exact time frame for Red Thunder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mord Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Come to think of it, I have not yet seen the exact time frame for Red Thunder. First sentence LOL. You were too busy oogling all those screenies. "Combat Mission: Red Thunder focuses on the hard fought battles from the swamps of Belarus to the gates of Warsaw during the summer of 1944."

Vanir Ausf B Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I suppose I don't really consider "summer" to be an exact time frame. Technically that would cover June through September. But IIRC Bagration itself was July-August. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I imagine the time constraint of Bagration is only gonna matter for this one release seeing that we are supposed to go all the way to the end of the war...but "On June 22nd, 1944, the Soviets launched the single largest ground offensive that the world has ever seen: Operation Bagration."

Sequoia Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 And it was just a coincidence it was on the aniversary of the German invasion in 1941. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BletchleyGeek Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 And it was just a coincidence it was on the aniversary of the German invasion in 1941. The timing was almost too good, but I'm not sure it was purely coincidental either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
