Sixxkiller

The other night I had an American 60mm mortar kill a Wespe. I know it's not that hard and all but that kinda shows that the game does some expected things exactly the way you want them to. But I will also admit when the computer shells my setup positions on the first couple turns it does make the game less fun. I can see why the OP would be frustrated.

I think you guys should go take a nappy. I am watching Bait Car. It makes me so happy when these idiots figure out that the police are about to lower the boom you know?

Shiny always looks better than grimy. What's not having an Art director listed in the manual have to do with anything? Not like you guys dont mod every single vehicle anyway. If you dont like the base game stuff I am sure theres ample community renderings out there to get you more to happlyland.

You know, the TV show MASH had a great line. "In order to be able to shoot at someone you should sit down and get to know them first."

Hey, if it meant saving the life of my buddies, I would kill a village of civilians if I had to under some circumstances. But in turn, I also risked my life everyday for those civilians. Even God in the Bible wiped out entire cities and since morality is rooted by religious law and thought, what's really the difference? Morality is a made up word just like everyone's thoughts of whats moral. Hitler and Truman did exactly the same thing, killed millions. It's all based on what your side of the fight you wanna be on.

When was it ever moral to attack another country and kill it's citizens? Just because you try and limit "civilian" casualties doesnt make it any more moral.

I hear ya, just pointing out that it is what it is. Real war isnt fun but games about wars damn well better be. If BFC went out of business I would have to spend more time with the gf and so would you.

Well i see your point about communication between infantry, artillery, and armored units, but if we were to simulate exactly how it was or how you think it was, who would play that game? CM is designed for you to take control of your units in a godmode. If you took away this, people would be even more frustrated and play a few times before throwing it away like a used condom. As for tanks being too powerful in the game, I do not agree. Tanks are always a focal point and usually without tank or real anti-tank support, facing them especially at standoff ranges requires a lot of tactical capital, and just like in real life, usually cost way too much. I think it's magnified in this game to an extent simply because you have more limited men, supplies, and choices than you would on a real battlefield. I guess it's all on how you look at it though.

Well, as of this moment, me personally, if I could only choose one, I would pick, either one. Hope that helps. Seriously though, I dont think you can really go wrong to be honest. You do however get a whole extra country in FI, but you dont get a Tiger II (And other heavy goodies) that you do in CMBN.

SPR was fantastic. Of course it wasnt perfect, they are actors LOL. But it captured the feel of war both in the highs and lows. Watching WWII vets who were on the landing beaches come out of the theater crying says a lot. I think 95% of the armchair warriors who sit here and pick apart movies never saw any combat and base their opinions on what they read and see on TV anyway. Who cares if a Tiger tank looks perfect? Use your imagination...

I completely missed all of this. I am shocked how awesome this is.

Cant believe you guys are even arguing about all of this. You can have all the training in the world and miss in combat, all of the time. You can also be the worst range shooter and hit more targets in combat than all of the best guys. The very next day it may reverse. No science or statistics ever gonna be able to change that. When I started my military career, we had a SGT on a range tell us something like, "When you guys get in combat you all are gonna suck, Im just here to make sure you dont blow off anyone's head here." Truer words were never spoken.

I miss him already.

Ya it would!

It's BFC Mike, the months have 67 days in them, except for the shorter months that have 69 days.

Mike, CM:T is good of course. But man Angry Birds has many incarnations, and you are a little late, but it's still super addictive.

This is one of the best things about the CM games. You guys are so willing to work on extra stuff to better enjoy the game. If it wasnt for stuff like this, I cant see BFC being around for as many years as it has been.

I, for one, am sad that this wont be upgraded to 2.0. With the upgrade it would be the best game to ever hit the market. But CMSF2 I am sure will be great, just not in a sandbox.

I just fired Steve. I have decided that I am the only one that gets to play this. It will not be available for download but we are still accepting pre-orders.

Worst opening ceremony EVER.

I am better at CMFI than he is at soccer.

Thats my moms birthday too but she is oblivious to any of BFC's efforts. :mad:

Everyone here has a full ammo load when defending their positions. Nothing wrong with that but sometimes you just dont have the right gun with the ammo. No one is going to hold a grudge here.

Your crazy to think Matt Damon was only good in Dogma. He was excellent in Green Zone. He was brilliant in Good Will Hunting and the Departed. And the Bourne series (first 3) were the best series based off a book ever.
