If testing were perfect there'd never be any bugs in any piece of software ever, so obviously the process isn't perfect Even huge companies with hundreds of paid testers miss stuff all the time, fairly regularly major things. What often happens is testers advocate for a "small tweak" late in the development process, the tweak is made but not tested for in all situations Sometimes a seemingly small, possibly not even relevant, tweak results in something unexpected. The problem with a game like CM is that there's millions of things going on and practical limitations on how much things can be tested. Hindsight, of course, is perfect! 2 hours ago, Sequoia said: Steve and Charles (and the rest of New England and Eastern Canada), I hope you guys don't lose power in this storm. Best of luck. I lost power a few too many times years ago so I'm off grid Which is a good thing because it definitely is nasty out there. Charles, on the other hand, has to hope Mother Nature doesn't slap him around. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I of course have a save file featuring a pretty bad case where I moved a squad halfway across the map before noticing, if anybody wants to see it. I hope this is just a CMBN issue and not a major 4.0 engine issue. (edit, i brought screen grabs) Srg Hillard and his grenadier are enjoying the day, watching birds (another squads leader is bugged behind them) The rest of Hillards Squad... or is it? well that wasnt all the squad, because the last two men in Hillard's fireteam decided after marching halfway across the map they forgot about him, and are sprinting back to where he became bugged Edited January 5, 2018 by Cobetco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wadepm Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I saw something like this once in CMBN (4.0) with a German squad. Two guys stayed behind a hedge and would not follow the rest of the squad. I finally split the squad which allowed me to give those guys their own move commend and they eventually caught up to their comrades... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battlefront.com Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 At the sacrifice of a company's worth of Fanatical Italian infantry, a tester confirmed that the Brens are operating in burst mode at all ranges. No single shots! I presume BARs are also similarly fixed as Charles said it was and for sure with Brens it is. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Liederkranz Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I hope the Italian LMGs (Breda 30) are fixed too! They've also been firing single shots only over 150m. This will be great to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a problem because what's the point of a BAR if you cannot suppress the enemy with some automatic fire? you could shoot single shots just fine with garands.

Battlefront.com Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Correct. The magazine fed LMGs somehow got accidentally whacked at some point. Which would be the Bren, BAR, and Breda. For all I know the DP might also have taken a hit. The good news is that the problem was isolated and fixed, so any LMG type weapon currently using single shot instead of bursts should be all better with the patch.
