  1. 1. Campaign system where you carry your force forward, and (slowly) gains experience. You as commander may arean medals and gain ranks which gives you the ability to command (buy) more forces.

    2. Multi-multi player option. 3 or more players able to play at the same time. Commanding their own forces (delegated at start of the game)

    3. A point system that reflects the strenghts and weaknesses at the virtual battlefield better than now.

    4. Make CM moddable, in the true sense of the word.

    5. Multi-multi player campaign system smile.gif

    Light MGs that works against, but not 20mm and up stuff.

    It was reported that to take down the IL-2 you needed 20 mm AP shells, not the normal HE variant. As these shells were in shorter supply, the 20mm Flak's success vs the IL2 was dependant on available 20mm AP ammo. </font>

    LOL... when you say "it takes so long time for the pilots to get some skills", that makes me wonder if you're aware that there is a 100 XP cap in the beta demo.

    I am aware of that.
  5. So, when I fisrt DLed the demo it was great and I played 4-5 hrs each day for 3 days straight.

    Then.. the thrill sorta went away. It takes such a long time for the pilots (rotating and all) to gain some skills, and chances are they will die before long anyway.

    When I first played the game I was certain I would order it, no.. Im no longer so sure.

    British army does, the German army does. For most other armies its an issue of cost more than anything else.

    Ofcource it is. Which is why most armies do not equip their soldiers with scopes. You know, in the real wolrd, there may be some resource contrainst.

    true but most ww2 rifles werent issued with scopes either. most armies today are. unless the us army has produced some revisionist theory proving there a mistake to.

    Oh? I think you will find that MOST armies does NOT equip their assualt gun grunt a scope.

    Or do you really mean that the design range of personal weapons has decreased?

    The problem with the M4 carbine is that it seriously compromised lethality over the M16 and bullpup rifles that its not really that effective a weapon.

    And this lack of lethality is evident in short ranges as well as longer ranges. It's not the long range lack of leathality that matters, heck, you will have serious problems even hitting anyone in such a combat situation.

    besides is every war in the world gonna be faught in iraq?

    As the article mentioned, the engagemet ranges for small arms has been very limited in every conflict since the dawn of gunpowder.

    Seems you confuse your pride for your big brother with objectivity.

    panzer 76 that is exactly my point and you have just proved what i said. look at afganistan and you will see a different story. thankyou for proving my point i couldnt put it any better my self.

    So Afghanistan is an example of two modern armies clashing? :confused:

    Also, if you read the articles, it was pointed out that these engagment ranges has been common since WWII and before.

    and in a modern war, unless it turned into a nuke fight then yes they would!

    This is utter nonsense. Take a look at WWII for example, what caused the casualties? Artilliry for the most part.

    And with superior MGs, the back bone of the sqd, the germans still lost. And they had the Stg44.

    You seem to think that the difference between having a AK47 or M16, or a Carabine or a rifle will really matter in a modern world, on the grand scale. News flash, it won't.

    I understand you are very passionate about this, but I find your opinions, and reasoning lacking focus and sense. But hey, it's a free country (some places anyway), so have a ball.
