Now this is more like it. Way off topic both in the thread and forum topic but at least its not constantly childish. Arkel, your English is better the many native speakers.

I agree with Boosh whole heartedly. BiA (At least the first one. Thats the only one I've played) is not that realistic. It seems its priority was on simulating proper use of squad tactics using covering fire and manuever. Thats about as far as the realism goes. Red Orchestra does a great job as far as realism. It gives the players great opportunity to use real world tactics, that is if the rest of the players are willing to. RO's other shortcoming is the maps are optimized for player size so they are relatively small and the engagement ranges are not always true to history, except for the urban maps.

Ah,that would explain why the Sherman looks more like a British Firefly with the box on the back.

Arkel, I seriously doubt anyone here thinks they are cool, least of all me. I welcome new people anywhere anytime. Make new friends but keep the old one is silver and the other is gold But it is nice learning from some of the more learned self starters here who take these forums relatively serious and put out relevant information. And when they do kid around they generally have one thread for it i.e. "The Peng Challenge". And when they dont put it there, there the humor is usually pretty intelligent and not low brow (not that there has been low brow humor ....yet). But I see speech trends that remind me of other forums I have visited that were less benign. And it is kind of a downer. That being said, I have also noticed that there has been little info put out by the developers. And when the cats are away, the mice will play. More or less.

HA! I love it when Shermans take out "Jap" Carriers. Especially THIS time of year. Where'd you get that shot? Is that taken from Pacific Fighters?

Maybe, JUST MAYBE (I do hope), at the least, the game will be TOO realistic, TOO slow therefore TOO boring for some and they will all go away. But we will have to endure the pain first. Just maybe. But I hope that those who do stay will learn the ways of the light side of the force.

There needs to be a toll on these forums.

Sounds like another high tech tool with potential to be overcome by low tech ingenuity. I'd be curious as well to know if it can take on multiple warheads at once from the same direction. And what is the reaction time against a projectile from a relatively close distance?

An "Iron Man" mode would be great. But like Michael Dorosh said a map would be needed. I have played "Franko's Rules" several times and I find I would have to sketch my own map, with elevation and all so I can keep better situational awareness. A pre-made map we be preferable.

Your kidding?!

*Dr Frankenstein voice* (Thats Frahn-ken-steen) ITS ALIVE!!!!

Command and Conquer? Thats about as traditional as it gets.

Make it stop! Make it stop! Make the bad people go away!

Sing along everyone! Ebony and Ivory BFC and 1C together in harmony Yeah! Tip your waiter, please. I'll be here all night. Thank you ! :cool:

All kidding aside, I think you are putting the cart WAY in front of the horse when you dont even know when the horse will show up. Just sit down, relax, and have a coke and smile.

Yea. I saw what looked like a squad of Panzershreck soldiers too. Meaning there were three soldiers grouped together behind some rubble, each with a Panzershreck. Not the normal two man crew; loader and gunner combo. That doesnt look too good either.

You might as well get used to it.

Right. Good idea. And I will start a PFITPPAC. That should about do it. [ September 05, 2006, 08:48 AM: Message edited by: gunnersman ]

I know there are no editing tools as of yet for the game, but, would it be possible to alter the dimension of the playing area to, say, 1000m x 3000m or vice versa? In the first instance the area would have more depth while in the second instance more breadth.

The only place you will find it at this point is Wargamer.com Its not an official Koios Works demo. It originated on the forums before it even became news. Apparently a contest was put on by Koios and won by whoever put out the demo. The winner then had the rights to put the demo out (Im assuming they had the 'rights').

Here is what I think; I just downloaded and played the 'Panzer Commaner Winter Storm' demo, and Its a nice interim, but it makes me want ToW that much more. And besides, in regards to entering buildings, people in hell want ice water.

Heck, make it all MG crews.

Welcome aboard. So...'fanbois'....is that French? Cajun?

Not to mention that the He111 are probably flying too low. So low that they will probably catch shrapnel from their own bombs.

Later dude.
