Disappointing indeed. I own pretty well everything from the CMx2 catalog and 2 copies of CMx1. A developer's blog and/or an occasional update on the homepage would be nice.
In the meantime, waiting for an update on their homepage is like watching paint dry, or better yet, a pitch drop experiment:

good luck on that.  CM is a game you play for years.  If you can find that same value at the price on Steam then hats off to you.  

MJ, dumb question.  Probably just me but I don't see how to download the game.  I pre-ordered it in August.  On my account page under Order Status it says Process (the other games I bought over the years all read "complete").  When I click on "Click to View" it takes me to My Order page.  On this page I see an activation code for CMSF2 Big Bundle. 
Hmmm,................. Shipment status reads pending.
Am I doing something wrong?  How did you get yours?  It has been so long since a game released I don't remember the procedure .
@IanL if you are available for adult supervision............. 

Update greatly appreciated.
I'm firmly in the "I have so much CM to keep me busy, release dates don't matter" but I will gladly hoover up all the new stuff as you finish it. 😉

Yeah I don’t at all understand why they do not have a developers blog or something. I’ve stopped playing and I own everything they have made. My regular playing partners have also gotten fed up and stopped. The lack of updates and info has certainly been disappointing.

I often hit the edge of the map when scrolling around the battlefield, which is to be expected.
 
What strikes me as odd is that when I do so, the scrolling just stops, like I'm stuck to it. I'll then have to back away from the edge in order to continue scrolling around. It's quite aggravating.
 
Instead of just stopping, why not allow scrolling along the edge of the map? Think solid but slippery map edge.

I'd been mucking with 3D options, compatability options, all to no avail. I kept searching and found another thread here that mentioned pressing Alt-Tab.

So, I Alt-Tab'ed out of CMBB and then back into it. . and it's now working.

One would think that if Battlefront is still selling CMAK/CMBB, that they would provide a patch for that. . .

So, I guess we're stuck with 1.04 and the Alt-tab hack, which is better than the slideshow I was seeing.

That CMAK/CMBB bundle I bought a while back (which worked on Win 7) sure runs horribly on my (relatively new) Win 8.1 computer. That would be a 4770K CPU, 32G of RAM and an AMD7870 GPU. The graphics just chugs along. . . to the point of being unusable.

With the DRM issue's I've encountered, the effort in trying to install it on my 5 year old laptop (which also runs Win 8.1) is probably not worthwhile.



Ugh!

Update: Just upgraded video drivers and still no luck.
