U look a little bit different without the headhunter garb there MadBunny!

The pool is a meter deeper than usual. And the lane markers are designed to absorb wave/water energy so it's not affecting the next lane. Throw in the new "lazer" suits and you have world records falling left and right.

Oooooh.....very pretty forum. (Wanders off distracted by something shiny).

It changed after us CCers won!

I'm always around.....but I certainly don't try and keep up with Dorosh on post counts and such. I kinda started posting again when TOW was first announced and now that I actually have it....I may get to play it in the near future and see if it's what I dreamed for with CC. I'll get CMSF also but knowing my schedule it won't be until Thanksgiving that I'll actually be able to install it let alone play. :eek:

Damn straight.....and it looks like you're finally coming around. Would it be in bad taste to say SA:WF was better outta the box?

Aaaahhhh. This topic brings back all sorts of memories. I remember the decision and the many reasons why in CC4 we removed the points based requistion system and switched to a force pool. When the game was released it was a small riot from players wanting the old system back.....akin to what I'm seeing here. BTW...I like CMSF as it is.

Naaaah. The below following quote by the individual in question is a dead giveaway. How can someone with enough internet savvy use terms like "flamers" and not know what is a 'troll'? It's really hard for me to understand how the internet emboldens and twists the human psyche so much, but this forum is the biggest proof of it. Of the self righteous flamers here unfortunately most are acne-ridden self-confidence lacking geeks who all of a sudden develop a new spine with a vengeance over the internet and vow themselves to ruin the lives of all who post ANYTHING here. It's Sigrun as Dirtweasle noted. He really must like everyone here and enjoy being piled on as he keeps returning.

Hmmmmm.....I first thought Carolus X=Sigrun.....but this 1stSS wannabe is now in the lead. I'm bored here at the office so I'll bite. Name the time and place sparky. I can guarantee you won't meet with a zit covered, cowardly nerd. You are correct in that you are not thinking. This is a private site and "Steve" or any of the other BFC staff could send you on your merry way for any reason whatsoever. No "legal" rights here tough guy. Nice logic. And you are scoring major points with the staff here with your kudos. This is fun!

Definitely.....he's a lawyer.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm..... are you aware that Markus is one of the 'biggie' names in the CC universe? That his name is featured in the credits of various "RTS" games including CC? Yeah....one could argue whether or not CC and the other "RTS" games are real time or continous time but either way I can assure you he doesn't hate "people who play RTS games" let alone "paint them basically as people with less intelligence." Now Sammy, I have a challenge for you: Do some research about an individual before attempting portray them as something they are not.

Oh boy, one really gets some crackers here! Great Britain and it's imperialist empire, abuse of native populations by troops "used for the interests of an imperialist state". The torture, rape and murder of countless hundreds of thousands, if not millions. The concentration camps of the Boer war (yes, it may suprise you to know the british invented the concentration camp). Oh how long do we have to go over this...shall we get into the united states war of genocide against the native indians? Hmm? Shall we? Man is a beast, and nowhere is that more proved true than when he is at war with himself. Yet to hear the self-righteous cant being spouted here about the Waffen-SS, you'd think they were unique in other ways than their un-matched prowess in combat. The soviets under stalin murdered about four times as many humans as the nazis did under hitler, but that didn't stop Roosevelt and Churchill from supping with him, did it. Oh the rank hypocrisy of you blinkered revisionist dupes. </font>

Can you leave your ball please? We're really having fun with it...thx!

Alright, who's paying for my keyboard? Spilled my coffee watching that thing...funniest thing I've seen in awhile. Thx!

If Markus gets his medics, I want my mine dogs!

Thanks again! I must say it is looking good.....time to start updating the ole pc to get most out of this game. :cool:

You mean like a real company commander would? Oft times I would pray that my squads were supposed to be where I wanted them to be and doing what I wished them to be doing. TOW is pausable with ability to issue orders so game speed won't be overwhelming.

Thx! This is sounding better and better. Since it is still early I'll save more "Spirit" and other questions until later in development. Ahhh....questions, questions...split squads? ability to flee? disband? strat level supply system? campaign system, eh, will some maps carry more 'weight' than others ala CC2? Mine dogs? Been awhile since I've been excited about an upcoming release.

Is this akin to the ole CC 'morale' system? If so, is it tracked by Unit? Individual? Both?

CC6 is not vaporware....Destineer bought it and were doing some things with it and brought it SimTek to do some other work. No longer at Matrix and CSO so don't know much for the past few months. This does look exciting though......hope the 'low crawl of death' doesn't show up again.

Hof! Get back to the German voices in CC darnit! The Stalingrad mod is out and some of the stuff in it needs improvement.

Just as an FYI. When 360 Pacific (game company) went under they were developing a game called Project X. The game (and people) moved to Avalon Hill where it was renamed Beyond Squad Leader. A break with Avalon Hill occured (over royalty disputes IIRC for the W@W series) and was picked up by Microsoft......and was renamed again to Close Combat.

My best to you and yours at this time Abbott.

Wow....this sounds so familiar for some reason.

I'll hug the big guys for one heckuva game(s) ......of course, now the wife is jealous.
