    CMBO Patch

    in Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord

CMBO doesn't have much to do codewise with CMBB or CMAK except for the base code. Therefore "one last patch" (and there is always "one last patch" people ask for, hehe) isn't possible, sorry.

    That's what I feared :(

    CMBO is still a great game though smile.gif

    CMBO Patch

    in Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord

    Posted

    How about releasing a patch that'll give the same order options for CMBO as in CMAK/CMBB.I'm talking of "Advance to contact" "Hull Down" "Advance" etc.

    Also the option to pick Tank platoons in QB's would be good too.

    I realise no more work is going to be carried out on CMBO but one final patch would be great.

    Btw,the CM series are the best PC Wargames ever.

    But - only if they see the shooter.

    I think it is more likely that the T-34 didn't spot the Panzers due to worse optics. What was the weather in that battle?

    Weather was clear.Nothing obstructing the view either.

    Just making sure your tank wasn't hidden...?

    This game will dispel many preconceived myths, just hang in there ! smile.gif

    I will.There's probably a knack to using Russian armour,I just don't appear to have it yet.I'm more used to CMBO,and it's a bit of a shock seeing your Tanks running away every chance they get,that's all.

    - Are your tanks buttoned-up

    No the Tank was opened up.

    - What´s the crew quality

    Crew quality was veteran.

    - Are they reloading (long reload times on the

    Russian biggies)

    Nope the gun was loaded and ready to go

    - What´s your overall force morale

    At that particular point in the battle overall morale was 85%

    - Does one Russian tank face numerous enemy

    threats at once

    No,this was a 1 on 1 situation,my tank even spotted the enemy tank first,but he just sat there and did nothing.

    - Is the enemy moving fast so that your tanks have problems targetting

    No,this one was moving slowly,he crossed in front of my tank in open ground and the range was about 500 mtrs,but once again my tank just sat there doing nothing

    :(

    For anyone who is interested in learning what the man was all about, Kenneth Branagh does a terrific Heydrich in HBO's movie "Conspiracy". It is available on DVD. This hour and a half picture is historical, and the tight script is masterful.

    BTW - Branagh said that doing Heydrich was his most disturbing role as an actor, ever.

    Yes I watched that.It's a very disturbing drama.Most of the script was taken from the actual minutes of the conference.It's very well acted and Branagh is superb in the role of Heydrich.

    Ok,I changed the name.If anyone was offended,then I appologise.Now don't get me wrong I think CMBO & CMBB are exceptionaly good Games.One thing I'm having trouble with though is the exceptional stupidity of Russian Tank crews,no matter if they're green,veteran or crack,they have a habit of just siting there not doing anything.Even with a clear field of fire and the advantage of spotting the enemy first they would rather wait till they were shot at before opening fire themselves.Perhaps Russian Tank crews think it's bad manners to fire first(Joke),Anyway I shall keep at it till i get it right.

    Thanks for all the feed-back,good and bad,and I appologise once again for any offence caused.

    Why is the Russian armour such a load of crap?

    They wait to get shot at before fireing,They run as soon as they see any kind of axis vehicle,I had a T34/85 reverse out of range of a lorry,Is the game bugged or what?

    Here's one annoying instance

    A T34/76 spots a PzMKIII,range 1900mtrs,does it open fire? does it hell.It sits there while the pnzr opens up,and misses.I think,good now i got him,but no,he still sits there.The pnzr fires again,result,front turret penetration and up she goes in a ball of fire.That's at 1900 mtrs with a 50mm gun,now that can't be right.Can It ?????
