  1. Was the sniper facing the right direction at the time out of interest. I've still had men change their orientation themselves. I think spotting is generally better but maybe could do with a tweak?

    Yes, he was facing the right direction. Not that it matters. The Tiger alone should have seen them after the first few dozen shots - it has excellent optics. The sniper was just there to drive home the point that it's not in need of 'tweaking' - it's horribly broken and, at patch 1.3.1, something 1C should be ashamed of.

  2. Still broken. First mission, german campaign. Put one single sniper on the hill, prone. Put a Tiger a bit away to attract attention. Watch the russian 45mm guns pound away at the Tiger.

    See the elite spotting sniper utterly fail to locate any of the wildly firing AT guns. His loss, since the AT guns eventually spot the single man lying in the grass at 800m, doing nothing, and shoot him.

    So, 1C. Why hasn't the spotting been fixed?

  3. I also find it totally and utterly unbelievable that anyone could decide not to buy a game just based on a promo video. Try the demo then make up your mind.

    So you don't work in marketing. Well, neither do I, thankfully, but I have managed to glean enough understanding of the concept that I don't find it 'utterly unbelievable' when it influences it's potential buyers, for good or bad.

    And while I'm no slave to commercials (or even close), I do have a very limited amount of time to spend on games and demos, and since I expect the marketing to reflect the game (it should), I don't bother with games (or demos) where the marketing doesn't appeal to me.

    He's on the beta team now and under NDA, actually, Kreskin. But truth be told, when I told him how much we were looking forward to his opinion on the game, I think he got performance anxiety and claimed to be illiterate.

    No-one ever said BFC were stupid... here they have this cesspooler who somehow got hold of a copy before time? Could things BE worse? Well, he could start talking! Nothing good EVER comes from cesspoolers talking, everybody knows that!

    What to do, what to do... oh yes! Have the bugger sign an NDA! How to make him... hmmm... perhaps a new computer? No? Not interested? What's that? You want Grog Dorosh head on a platter, served with sliced Lars? Well... can't do that right now, seeing as how we're all very busy beta-testing CM:SF. Hey, there's an idea...

    The Gods of CM:SF has bestowed upon me the greatest of all gifts. Y'all go suck grenades, 'cause you ain't getting any!

    Yes, yes, we've all had to avert our eyes at your self-absorbed little gandy-dance on the Forum. Will you continue to actually post photos and insist that we look at the contents of the plastic cup in the future, or will we be able to mercifully draw a veil over the annoying images that your posts insist we look at? </font>

    SirReal, you've got an excellent opportunity to take nine days and carefully contemplate this product and present a fully formed review ahead of your peers at H-Hour on D-Day, 27 July. You seem like an articulate and well-reasoned gentleman, so hopefully your schedule will allow for such a thing. I'll reiterate that I'm looking forward to your comments. I hope you enjoy the product as much as everyone in the development stream enjoyed providing it to you.

    Too... many... strange... words... brain... melting...

    SirReal, why don't you play? Is it true that the forum is the real game?

    It's running in the background, and I tinker with it. I'm just not in the mood for a long CM session right now.

    Oh alright. Yes, it's true. The forum is the real game. All I got was an audio DVD with Martin & Steve reading all the archived Peng threads. God, it's awful...

    Got it by mail today. I pre-ordered from Paradox, and tonight I know what I'll be doing while all you losers are still playing CM1 games.

    No worries, I can wait. Stay away from my neck of the woods though, or there might be... trouble... </font>

    I just spoke with Paradox. Obviously it's not right that you have received a copy, and I was confirmed by Paradox that the game and pre-orders have not begun shipping yet. If you got one, then it must have been some sort of glitch on Paradox part, which is being investigated right now. I suggest that you change your forum name to SirLucky.

    The release date still is July 27th.

    Woo hoo! I pwnd the system! All those night of chanting and sacrificing chickens actually WORKED!

    I still want your official stance on whether to rave about it or keep my yapper shut.
