apparently mission designers for multiplayer can add unit choosing so I have read

usually a tool would be released(to decrypt/decompress) if it was allowed like mtw2 did recently

i think he means new tanks and graphics inserted into the game by modders

I played a lan game here at my place with a friend.... great fun but flawed We chose a 4player map which was massive and did not get to choose troops, but I am told that MP scenario makers can change this. My friend knew nothing about the game and randomly got the polish and me the americans..... I had 2 shermans and him 6 vickers.......... he lost THere were some empty AT guns in a town I used my infantry to capture and pound his oncoming tanks before throwing the shermans in. Not really a proper review and just a random "doe its work" test but fun

Chazman Are you not a CM player? Stick men, your joking right compared to the mr potatoe head CM men that look like clown heads rotating Anyway I found that amusing as I find it easy to command and control and still zoom in for the awesome detailed action

no worries Sfox28 I have been playing cc5 gold juno sword and it I just have not seen it cc5 fail. It still works now.... I should reboot into my vista install and try it I do know some peeps have had probs though and have not played anything below cc4 in a very long time

excellent fil.... if its LOS I will be a very happy person

cool, so does that mean the los (line of site) pathing?

I'll probably buy a second copy to give me 4 licences if the patch is any good i.e. it fixes LOS at the very least.

there is a hold fire button, otherwise just tell them to target something else manually. I rememeber the arguments for and against this in other games very well, your damned if you do and damned if you don't

cc has always worked for me under XP.... as in has never stopped working GET it? Anyways I agree with you, just some peeps are claiming CC is perfect.... COI I cannot judge but considering how long close combat had to come of age..... well you take my point ??

agree that CC is better as TOW stands at the moment. CC does work under XP!!!! what are you talking about? However I was saturated to the point of not being able to play CC and all its mods anymore. TOW is a breath of fresh air to me. CC had some rather bad flaws of its own too including: Bad tank pathing men killing themselves by moving at random Tank heavy in most scenarios (although this was fun) poor ability to see terrain elevation men not to scale with tanks searching for mortars by sound mortars firing on small maps small maps bordering on the ridiculous - modders fixed this to some extent SHOCKING AI!!!!!! nobody remembers this ???? The ai got so predicatable that only playing against a person was fun directdraw errors since XP updated unrealistic\abstract depiction of re-inforcements I could go on......................... We all learnt to deal with these flaws and have long forgotten about them personally I think cc1 was the best of all of them

I noticed that the download license allows me two installs. I was thinking of lanning with a close friend to see if he likes it. License says you can install on a second computer and de-license when finished. I was thinking this is great for those wargamers out their who have friends to play with who will not be buying the game due to being non-grognards but are willing to give you a game or two at home. Also good I guess for peeps who want to play VS thier family (sons) on the second computer OR for those like me who have a laptop that is not as good as the main computer but means can take the game on trips Has anybody tried this?? license - deinstall license method?

most new games use the middle mouse button like this. I'm not a fan but am getting used to it. I remember when Doom came out and everybody was using mouse instead of just keyboard for control. That took some getitng used to.... but now its standard

Its growing on me but things need to be fixed for longevity major flaws are: LOS Minor flaws: buildings hope they can find a way around missions and campaigns can be fixed Hope theirs a map editor too in future most everything else I can get used too

you can design campaigns and missions THeres an editor included that does both

thats called cc marines and 8 player cc does exist

close combat has multiplayer campaign... its great

no surprises in this thread LOL

because credit cards are soooooooo easy and recognised internationallly And they steal souls and destroy families

yes

thats FRAPS a third party program, it works in all games and is free unless you want the other features like record video from games.. it also takes screenshots with watermarks until you pay the $10 for it www.fraps.com.au

I think your right, it would be more an physics\data calculations problem with the CPU and ram taxed the hardest.

thats huge, and your FPS are about what i get in the normal game on larger maps LOL
