  1. I ran a few test. It does not seem the commander rotating issue exists anymore. I could not recreate it, seems more of a skill level issue in regards to poor spotting or something else.
  2. @BFCElvis patch link is not working, saying invalid link.
  3. One thing that may be effecting spotting for the Oplots (and one of my biggest gripes with this campaign) is that for whatever reason the designer decided to make a lot of the crews green. Seriously, it’s supposed to be the best equipment they can field but the just grabbed some dudes off the street to drive them around?!?!?!?! Beautiful scenario design but horrible decision for experience lvl’s. It plagues the US campaign as well. One of my biggest gripes in an otherwise awesome game; high tech equipment that is operated by some random hillbillies off the street. Very unrealistic and not likely at all. I am wondering if the oplots have been patched though. If not why not?
  4. It looked like he was trolling the vehicle he just knocked out. I had no idea this was a feature. BF never stops amazing me!
  5. Interesting you mention this, and one of the aspects of CM games I love. In SF I had a Brit Challenger with too much downward angle right as an AT-3 came to make its acquaintance. The missile hit the top of the commanders hatch and destroyed the tank. Not saying that this is what you have observed but maybe. I am actually quite surprised by the dragons effectiveness as well. I personally have witnessed stray shots but generally if it hits, it destroys.
  6. Steel Division II that’s the other game.
  7. Agreed 100%. Nothing like it, it ain’t perfect but just like Democracy it’s better than the next closest thing lol. I have another game that I tried, can’t remember the name, deals with Operation Bagration and other east front battles. I really like the overall operational aspect of it and wish CM would have something similar, like you get to pick which units are going to enter battle. The tactical level battles of the other game are not my cup of tea. I really like turn based games.
  8. Was playing the Engel campaign. Completed the first mission, my infantry had some casualties but luckily for me it was mostly to k98 troops and one SL carrying an mp40. So imagine my surprise when I start the next mission and all my Stg44 are gone. I remember from ages ago this was a bug, it was actually one of the bugs that made me take a break from CMBN but I thought it was fixed. I know there are issues with saves for some reason or another so could it be a corrupted save or is this still a feature of CMBN?
  9. Grey just means that only part of your formation can see what you’re aiming at. How many meters away are your troops there?
  10. This was kinda my point. In other games I use the same commands and my troops launch away like they are playing hot potato. I believe it is an RT specific problem. I too wish there was a grenade specific command. I would also like to see an option for vehicles to fire different rounds like there is for fire smoke, fire HE, Heat, AP, missile or machine gun etc.... RT-FR is in my opinion (yes I spelled that out cause I’m an adult) one of the best BFC releases but with a few odd game specific bugs if this nade thing ends up being a bug. Such as I would provide a save to show my issue but alas the save bug has eaten my file
  11. While giving a temporary target command within 30 meters the Germans seem reluctant to throw grenades. I am currently playing the first mission in the broken shield campaign. First instance, German assault team in cover from the woods given a temp target order to a building 20 meters away. No nades thrown. Second instance, entire squad in a building temp target a different building 25 meters away. No nades thrown. Third instance, Plt HQ in the woods temp target given 28 meters away in the woods. No nades or shooting in this instance. This could be chalked up to a bad roll of the dice but in other titles grenade usage seems to flow like the Nile. Possible bug but want other’s opinions and I will do more testing before reporting.
  12. When give your units a hide command you must give them a cover arc too. Because even on hide they can spot and will engage
  13. Most likely not holding the Bridgehead cost you. Just speculation thought, currently playing that scenario. Well done George
  14. Lol this is one of my favorite things to do as well, I feel like a toddler. Glad to see I’m not the only one. It seems as if this rendering issue is worse with CMCW than with any other title. I have noticed it in other games but CMCW is next level, I just figured it had to do with some of the other graphical errors being ironed out.
  15. I was thinking it’d be awesome if there were a mini campaign, three missions or so, that you get a Plt of M1’s and a couple Plt’s of Brads to conduct a counter attack.
  16. The M1 and Brads???? I’d really like to see how the first generation of these vehicles fair against the Soviets. Are there any battles or campaign that utilize these vehicles?
  17. I haven’t seen any of the stg 44’s either. Maybe just my luck
  18. Dang.... comes out just as I have to go to work!!!!!
  19. Hey friends, noticed an oddity while playing the excellent British campaign. In the airfield seizure mission there are some bunkers my troops encountered. Noticed a couple possible bugs after the bunkers were abandoned by the enemy. 1. troops with a movement square right next to the bunker would immediately cancel their assigned order at the start of the turn and just lay in the spot they were in. 2. Troops were moving next to the bunker when I canceled their order stopping them right next to the bunker. They were unable to move for the remainder of the scenario. Has anyone else encountered this?
  20. Don’t really know what I’m doing wrong..... I’ve loaded the core units and only changed the xp lvl on a couple units. I fire up the campaign and only one unit shows up on the map hmmmmmmmm
  21. Awesome thanks a lot. As a side note getting tips from the legend himself is like meeting Justin Bieber!!! Thanks again.
