Im aware of the ability to fire through a building in RL. Ive read in panzer commander memiors this thing happenning on the russian front. I just wasnt aware of it being do able in game and the ease with which the tank did it. Ill factor that in when playing future games lol This game always surprises me

And german forces. They are the backbone of Nato in europe.

There were lots of reports of Ukraine using incenderies - phosphorous in a couple of cities. Not sure if it was accurate. I would have thought this might have been shown in game. Yep flamethrowers are a bit outdated lol

My oponent in a pbm his russian tank flew out from the cover he was in with no los to the target took a 2 second look at building Shot thru the building from 200 yards into the side of my pziv. Can tanks shoot thru buildings at tanks?

Getting back into topic lol Me bad My comment re different calibres also relates to the penetration of small arms rounds through terrain and buildings. So at closer ranges AK rounds would dominate going thru walls and stuff. US 5.56 rounds penetrate less have less kinetic damage but they can carry more rounds. Any one know how the damage model for buildings works or will work?

I was going on the list provided of equipment to be in game. I thought russian eqiupment was limited. I shot F Class in New Zealand shooting out 1000 yards in our nationals placing 3rd a few years back. That was .308. .338 is very dominating but expensive to use unless you are reloading. The US sniper rifles would dominate range and acvuracy wise. Im unsure if Russian rifles would use match loads or better loaded rounds (unlikely). So there accuracy would likely suffer out past 400 yards. But In a long protracted war logistics and supply would be important. Russia has guns all firing similar rounds so makes supply easier. Long range sniper domination may also be restricted to open areas with more dense fighting areas ( cities and urban areas ) making the superior range obsolute. So SVDs could be designed with this in mind - being used in russia. I recommend watching on u tube NutnFancys Ar15 vs ak47 vids and comparison vid. Both have there pros and cons. I shoot an AR 15 myself as well. And have owned an Ak and SKS. General comments ive heard from overseas vets is .308 recommended for fighting due to range and general capability. This was coming from fighting in Middle east. Russia is a whole new terrain and ive only read european ww2 sniper memoirs and modern mid east stuff. Not sure how it would all pan out.

Interesting. I thought the strike eagles were retired? The Russians have been recently upgrading there siberian and other remote bases recently. While there may be a strike on these in a war they would be limited and no ground assault in these areas. Future wars are all going to based over water or other resources. So any scenario is possible. Full invasion of russia though might be pushing it lol.

AH-64D Apache Longbow AH-64E Apache Guardian F-15E Strike Eagle F-16CJ Fighting Falcon I thought the F16s and eagles were finished up. Expecting Raptors, Stealth Fighters, Hornets and A10s. Comments?

Is the .50 calibre and russian eqivalent going to be added in at a later point? Ive seen news footage with Ukraine soldiers holding .50 cal given by US in arms deals. Just curious. Rifles you are currently using seem spot on.

Sweet! Cheers Guys

Looks awesome nice pics prefer it in the truck lol

It was from side and rear armour. Just seemed to do nothing.

Was playing a game today and .50 cal on a humvee was shooting for two turns at a bmp with no effect. Range of about 400 yards. I would have thought the AP round would have gone thru. Ive never tested this before. Is this normal or a bug? Cheers

Thanks Steve Will make the games alot more PBM friendly You have beaten me to the punch I cannot say BTS please fix it or somefink lol Well done Happy to pay $20 for the expansion once my PBMs are finished. I appreciate the time it takes to do this.

I think its great they released this, price is no issue but its the disruption to pbm games that puts me off. Im not making multiple instances of the game to run different versions. A more logical soultion needs to be put in place. Unlock units as people pay to use them. Means your opponent can play the pbm with out being effected. This effects alot of players and the game is PBM based.

I agree all vehicles should be coded in game and patches released. So all games are patched and uptodate. If you want to play with units pay extra to unlock. Atleast it would mean your opponent is not restricted in using these if they pay for them. Makes sense also as the current format is disruptive to PBM games and with all the games im playing id rather not patch. Id like to know the fixes in this patch also.

Just use smoke ditto to the AT bunker

Great news with the game coming out in a few months time A quick question to Steve and the crew. If there are issues regarding storyline why not release units from world wide forces. Add a mission editor and let the community make missions. I play Armed Assault 3 and its community lead. Missions and campaigns are made by the community. One interesting point was Chinese forces. In Arma2 chinese force modders were asked to stop there mod and pressure was put on the forums and hosting web sites to shut it down. They did not appreciate the very realistic design,modding and use of there units in game. They took it very seriously. I wonder if the team could make a Chinese army to use without recieving cease warnings from there Govt. With all the world wide conflicts you could have any potential conflict going on.

Any chance of implementing US hypersonic drones they are testing now that can be anywhere world wide in 30 minutes? EMP or Scalar Weaponary?

So Steve any chance i can have my old username back GAZNZ "BF please fix this or somefink"

Hi There A few questions on CMSF upgrades When are insurgents getting Mortars as they frequently use these. They should be a visible option as opposed to off table support like u are doing with the brits Is this a patch or do we have to buy this as part of an insurgent package? When are u adding in forces like China or Russia? and or new terrain. Cheers and keep up the good work

Actually Steve this topic really shouldnt be being discussed in this forum - I sat back and looked at it. Not something you generally want to discuss - its moving well away from the game.

The hit was done obvioulsy by special forces - sepcial ops with special penetrating bullets and silenced weapons to create instability here among other things. I ask 2 questions 1. Who has the most to gain from these hits? 2 Or who wants something to happen in this country and the world can focus on them as opposed to something else that is in the limelight. Its a shame in this day and age people just cant get along and all be friends. Why all the killing? We are all brothers no matter what your religion is. Peace

Just as a note Armed Assault will be so heavily modified by the community in a few months like the original Flashpoint ended up it will not be the same as the original game. Standard units will be made completely different to real life specs. AA also features real ballistics. Similar to this new battlefront game id imagine considering how accurate battlefront are with real life ballistics. But yes its difficut to try and compare the two - two different types of game.

This looks like that old classic game Battle Zone but with more options and better graphics. The units amounts and types look similar though. While some options are good there looks to be alot of similar options here to Battle zone. Is BF going futuristic in games now or are you going to make a new WW2 CM version as well as other times / theatres?
