I really hope NATO, including my own country, will start arming itself to the teeth again, so we can face whatever is coming at us. Those who want peace, prepare for war.
Don't know where to put this and it ain't a gamebreaker, but the Grille is in Single Vehicles in the editor only available for the Heer, not for the Waffen SS.
Did you see the BBC documentary about the British involvement in Afghanistan, called 'The last roar of the Lion?'. It predicts that was indeed the last roar. What struck me most was a local official who was convinced that the British came to his land only to avenge the defeat of 1842...
Perhaps it is time we start building up our forces again for the defence of Europe itself. Enough to worry about near and inside our borders.
That is a statement I can respect. But quality comes at a price. Compare these games with others on the wargame market. A lot more time and intelligence is invested by BF than in most games from other companies. CM isn't for everyone. I've also tried to convince friends to try CM, but or they want a fast shooter, or an easy graphical painting to click in. I don't think reduced prices will change much in that respect.
May be so. Perhaps we are running out of patience, because we know that we are finally getting what we always wanted and now people still complain. Besides, I remember you talking about the price of the vehicle pack as 'absurd'. Such statements aren't exactly a good foundation for a civil and respectful conversation. I can understand that for some people 20 dollars is quite a price. But wouldn't they have complained it it would have been 15 or 10? I doubt it. Those guys of BF are no fools. If they say they have to ask 20, then I believe them.
It is like AKD said, there is a line between constructive criticism and annoying and arrogant pestering. All this so-called well meant advise is nothing more than pestering, as is most of the moaning about prices and discount. We are lucky to have a company like BF which is willing to make the games for us we always dreamt of. People like Togi have no love for these games and no sympathy for what BF is trying to achieve. They just want to be a smart ass and moan, because that is their character. It is revolting.
If I were you, Togi, I would keep my money in my pocket and us some of it to improve my English. For that you don't need a discount, but a small fortune.
'Ha ha ha...'
No, no, no, you misunderstand me. It is precisely the other way around. ;-)
Edit: wait a minute, wait a minute, the penny finally dropped. That is acutally quite witty, Reichmann. ;-D
Good points, Ken. And we forget something rather important. The old CM series only blossomed because of all the scenarios and campaigns made by third parties. Okay, the new editor is more complicated, but as someone who is working on his first scenario I dare to say that the learning curve isn't too steep. And believe me, I'm not the brightest with this sort of thing. ;-)
