Thanks, I like it, can much easier see what a squad is doing at a glance without having to get in close. One small gripe, because of the longer info the box is bigger now.

Thomm, I was just trying to goat you into breaking your NDA to tell us something. But not really, just having a little fun. Will, that is pretty funny, would be great to see video of that. Thanks for sharing.

There is no random map generator in CMx2. I don't think there are any plans to add one either. Only user created maps are used for QBs. I think most liked the random map generator from CMx1 even though sometimes the maps sucked. Why is that Thomm? Please indulge us!

Actually there was some definite interest from Steve in adding replay for RT. I forget his exact words, but it's not high up on the priority list though. So it could be a long time until we see it, if at all.

Ok thanks Vein. By the way, I couldn't find the Text/Strings.txt file in my install.

Whoaaa, hold the phone, is that a blood mod your using? I had no idea it was even possible. Or did you edit the image? :eek:

+1 to this!

Thanks for the update Steve, it's appreciated. I for one do wish we could see more rough and unpolished stuff. I find it fascinating to see things at different stages of development. But understand why you guys don't show it. Too many people get wrong or bad impressions of the game. Speaking of which, I was recently reading an interview of the lead development producer of the new IL2 Cliffs of Dover and thought this was interesting and funny. I'm sure you guys have a few stories yourself.

The M10 tank destroyer, nicknamed "Wolverine", is in the first release. Here's a list and link to the full TO&E in case you haven't seen it yet. http://www.battlefront.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=276&Itemid=460 American Tanks M4 105 Sherman Early M4 105 Sherman Early (Rhino) M4 105 Sherman Mid M4 Sherman Late M4 Sherman Late (Rhino) M4 Sherman Mid M4A1 76W Sherman Early M4A1 76W Sherman Mid M4A1 Sherman Late M4A1 Sherman Late Rhino M4A1 Sherman Mid M4A3 Sherman M4A3 Sherman (Rhino) M4A3 105 Sherman Early M4A3 105 Sherman Early (Rhino) M4A3 105 Sherman Mid M4A3 75W Sherman Early M4A3 75W Sherman Early (Rhino) M4A3 75W Sherman Mid M4A3 76W Sherman Early M4A3 76W Sherman Mid M5a1 Stuart Late M5a1 Stuart Late (Rhino) M10 GMC (Rhino) M10 GMC M10 GMC Late

Which is part of the reason I started this thread, how about an update. Steve's original QB thread is about a year old and no longer a sticky. Lol, ok sure, I based my QB status assumption on whats been said by Steve. Which is all us forum-ites can do as he is our window to the games development. It has nothing to do with others over-eagerness of the games release, other than you implying it. Oh and for the record, in that "Guess the Release Date" joke and fun thread, I said June. Hardly the "just around the corner" that others think. Thank you and good bye!

Sure enough, I knew the beta-testing PR-wannabe would swing by to ruin it. Seriously though, I could of sworn I saw Steve post several months back that QBs are nearly done. He is afterall, the target of this thread.

Assuming the new QBs are done or at least in a near final state to show us. Perhaps a video of somebody going through the QB process would be great. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying this single feature is the most I'm looking forward to. So please, with gunpowder on top, show us!

But is a great idea, would be great to see how and what your squad is doing at a easier glance. Could even take it a step further with yellow text to indicate injury and maybe white to indicate cowering. Maybe another color to indicate hiding. Wonder if this has been brought up before and what the word is on this UI tweak. Nice idea with the Lazyboy, here is your next step:

Your not suppose to take it literally. He's referring to pop stars and not musicians in general.

Perfect annoying size too!

Wonderful, so now we got threads bitching about other threads that are.... umm.... bitching.

Speaking of captured vehicles, will they get a new skin to reflect the new paint job by it's captors? IIRC in CMSF there is no difference in the actual skin of the vehicle, just that it's either for blue or red.

+1 to this analogy!

Count me in, I'll lead the charge with a beer in each hand. Surely no one would shoot me for fear of spilling my beer.

No preview for us Southerners down here, oh the injustice of it. :eek:

Yeah me too, I discovered the game and this site from a PC Gamer article probably sometime around mid-late 2000. But it wasn't just PC Gamer that gave it good reviews. Even the other mainstream media outlets liked it too. 88% out of 16 reviews, not bad! http://www.gamerankings.com/pc/196956-combat-mission-beyond-overlord/index.html

Hehe, you are correct sir!

I said to her: "Hey is that a mirror in your pocket?" "Because I can see myself in your pants!" Thank you very much, I'll be here all night.

Perhaps someday, if I find the Normandy Peng worthy, the Muffler Man will make his return. LOL

My mandatory image spam for the hot and fresh Peng, Normandy style.
