    Finalizing CM:SF's Setting

    in Combat Mission Shock Force 1

    Posted

    Syria Major is "on the outs" Fine option 1 Elimenated

    Syria Minor story Limitations in scope

    but as you stated this seems to be the worst of both worlds

    the Positive is less work for BFC

    Totally Fictionalized makes more work for BFC

    BUT it offers possibilites and elimenates some of the "dead ends" that using Syria causes

    by being Fictionalized you CAN introduce other hardware and options not available using the Syrian setting

    While I am not in the habit of choosing things that make work for others

    I see the fictionalized setting being the best option

    in summary

    Fictional removes the Syrian limitations

    and opens up more open ended (and hardware) posibilities

    I am sure there are many "learned" people who can whip up a fictional ME country rather Quickly:

    and I wouldnt be surprised to find its already been done somewhere ;)

Starting out on a big project doesn't necessarily mean you're going to be able to make it to the end... through no fault of your own. We're just relieved, in late June, to see any signs of life at all on this particular project.

    Agreed smile.gif

    but I am of the opinion

    BFC has pulled off diificult projects in the past

    & I am confident they will do so in the present and future as well

    The Prediction of the Demise of CMSF

    would have to be based on the Assumption

    that the Entire BFC crew are Liars

    They have told us it is progressing and just to be patient

    In fact I think if it was NOT going to be published

    the FIRST place we would hear of it would be this very Forum

    with an Announcement with that News from BFC itself

    So please give BFC and the rest of us a break

    by refraining from wild speculation and rumor

    Is it just me, or is it too quiet...

    the Silence is indeed "Deafening"

    the forum list gets shorter

    as there are fewer posts to fill the threads

    and there is a scary sense

    that something may NOT be happening

    but...

    Just like I have grown to trust my surgeons

    (I don't like all they do, but it always seems to work out)

    I trust BFC because of their track record

    I dont like ths silence and apparent lack of activity

    but BFC has come through in the pat

    and I am (hopefully) confident they shall do so again [soon?]

    Never.

    We gamers can only hope that the competition rips out all the good features of CM and implants them in their own games!

    Just as convenient as it is to know that the WASD keys will steer my FPS character it will be to know that a yellow line means incoming fire ... or that pressing '1' brings one to eye level.

    I was reluctant to play the Germans in CMBO

    because I did percieve them as "Bad Guys"

    but in CMBB there were no "Good Guys" smile.gif

    So I was willing to play both sides

    with CMAK I was used to playing the Germans

    so it no longer mattered which side I played

    A bit of news on the intel Apples

    True but I am waiting to see it done

    (and checking various websites for the proof)
