Juju

Latest news was that nearly all pre-orders were shipped, but that some might have to wait until monday. But that was last night (at least from where I'm sitting). Hope this helps.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Murx: Just read Jujus post... You are right, but with the limit you weren't able to do all this and focus on being the CO giving commmands and hoping your troops assimilate :_) ( this will take maybe a even better TacAI [could that be done ? without a cray ] )<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Murx, what I actually (or maybe, also) meant that it would be a shame if I had a platoon attack, or move to, an objective, and they get chewed up along the way just because I, the player didn't get enough time to, not tell them what to do, but how to do it. Frankly, the only game so far where I've seen 'multiple character' (multiple unit in CM's case) realtime 'combat' that didn't turn out into a click-fest is Baldur's Gate. Simply because you can pause the game AND isue orders at the same time. [This message has been edited by Juju (edited 06-16-2000).]

Allus reminds me of thet ole Bugs Bunny cartoon, Yo' know, like, Bugs pops out o' th' groun', like he does, an' thar's this sign sayin' 'Y'all's in th' Ozarks.' An' then thar's this hyar bird, it's real homely like, an he lives in a treehouse wif his Pappy 'n stuff! Fry mah hide! "Ah's goin' out 'n ketch me a rabbit," he sez. "Yup, Thet's whut ah's a-gonna do!" I'm watching too many cartoons I guess.

You have my co-operation.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Murx: Another option is to limit the time you can give commands; no, I don't want CM to be a click feast, but to represent the pressure under which a WWII commander had to give his commands<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> When playing CM I'm not THE WWII commander. I'm every lowly squad and/or section leader. I need to check everyones LOS, cover, advance route etcetera. So, in essence, I am a lot of people at the same time! I don't think any game will ever represent the pressure under which a WWII commander had to give commands.

Another weird lockup explained Never had trouble with CM until I started PBEM-ming. Experienced frequent lockups, requiring a reboot. Found out soon enough that the troublemaker was Outlook Express, which I normally kept running in the background, ready to send the next file. Not anymore.

Heck, sorry, Berli. Oh well, we'll just have to start a second double blind scenario to make it up. Juju

Pity. No. Reckon it must be cuz ah live on th'other side of that there Big Pond. Sorry. Just a little bored here...

Thanks for explaining, Tyro! ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Scott Clinton: Both are damn fine games, with the REALPARA and REALRED patches! If you don't know about these patches or have not used them, then you don't know **** about these games. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> sorry Scott, but I haven't been connected to the internet for more than, say, 15 months. Before that I didn't even know what a patchwas. There are no doubt a lot of CC players out there that are not connected. Do they all know **** about the game? Is it their fault the patch wasn't in the original game when they bought it? Well, I've got all CC games, and I've NEVER heard of the patches. In your opinion (I think) I have no right to comment on these games. I disagree. That's all. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

Productive to society? gimme a break. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

Cross of Iron. Yep, definitely. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

I was one of those who mentioned downloading the demo on the CC board. I also offered to sell CC 1 thru 4 if anyone was interested. I was merely kidding. I just wanted to indicate that I at least have those four games, played them, and thus knew what I was talking about. Guess I should have included a couple of smilies there... I returned there today finding a "warzone." That was not my intention. I don't think I was wrong in doing what I did, but I agree with Madmatt that we can draw attention to something, but best leave it at that. A die-hard Sudden Strike fan wouldn't stand a chance on this board, for example. I've witnessed some flamewars on this board. People tend to get a bit a bit cruel and childish (no offence intended, I do it myself) at times like that. I am happy, however that things do not degenerate to the level of posts I've seen in said thread (solely my opinion!). Lastly, I'd like to thank you, Madmatt, for the response you posted. It was just what that thread needed. Anybody wanna buy CC 1 thru 4? ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

In fact those who do... Ah! Right... Here's what you do Cardinal (I know, this is lame): first you get....THE COMFY CHAIR. Then, you pour yourself a nice drink, put a little smooth music on the stereo, disable your doorbell, disconnect your phone, and read the manual. Beats curling up in a corner IMO. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

Hmmm, see if you can figure out which message I posted. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Not a problem. It's the one on top. I've already added my support. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

No insult Manieri, just, erm, how old were you when you and that... ,ah, never mind. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

I could recite the song "Kameraden auf See." That'd be a change... ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

I agree with Bullethead. HOWEVER, I do have a problem with the grey base color of the German units. sometimes I have trouble seeing them clearly from view 7 or 8. They would be better visible if they were a lighter grey, or some other color. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

Yah... I knew you'd like that. ------------------ I've just about had it with sig's

I think it was a pretty nifty idea of our friend Teresa to do things this way. If her intended "target" frequents this board he should find out soon enough, oh yes. He's gonna have to make some difficult choices in the near future. ------------------ Combat Axiom 46. Do unto others, before they do unto you.
