Aris' work is great, I have many of his mods residing on my hard drive. I was just joking.
But the stock artwork is of great quality IMO. Especially the Shermans. I love those.
I think modders will have a tough time besting it. But hey are free to try, he he he.

The tanks look REALLY good in Bulge. Sorry modders, you need to find another hobby

But when you do ever find that game you are wishing for and think you can Rant about to make happen, which appears you will need to find somewhere else. Please or please let me know, because I would love to have it also.
This. Is there a game out there that blows CM out of the water? I too would like too know. I have not found anything that comes close so far.

Hahaha. Sburke and PanzerMike, Heckle and Jeckle. Too funny
And I would have laughed even harder if you had worn your hat, Nidan Pyle.

Well they are kinda texture and scenario packs aren't they, the actual content you pay for is the missions isn't it. Some TO&E alterations there, a new vehicle here, a bunch of new skins. That's all the game changes are, the actual point of the new module is the missions.
For modules this is mostly true. Much less so for base games. Red Thunder was a great step forward for example, the list with improvements was quite impressive IMHO.

This is something that you seem to be completally unable to accept !
They do not have 250 people on the payroll.Besides engine updates BFC are- and have always been under great presure to deliver new theatres, campaigns and scenarios for their customers to play.Making these takes time...Engine improvements and artwork is a lot of work, but making content is also a ton of work. Anybody who has made a scenario knows this. And I mean a scenario with full bells and whistles, fit for publishing. Maps, OOBs, briefing text, briefing graphics, playtesting (!!!), etc. The whole shabang.
Many of this content is made by volunteers and playtested by volunteers. They are willing to dedicate their time and talents to make this game shine together with the small staff of BFC.
To dismiss games like CMRT, CMBS and the upcoming Bulge title as just trivial texture/scenario packs... This is beyond me.

You know all the improvements Wiggum15, since you have played CM for years. No need for lists.
But it seems in your book, all these changes are not significant (enough). I am not going to try to convince you that they are. You are entitled to your own opinion.
Let's agree to disagree and leave it at that. It's too hot here already, sheesh a genuine heatwave here in Holland. I bet it is pretty hot in Germany right now too?

Nice paintings on that wall

The game has by no means "significantly" evolved since 2007.
All we got are bug fixes, some additional but minor features and balance tweaks.
...
And here I disagree. The game has improved greatly.
You are listing stuff that has not made it in (yet), but you do not list the stuff that did make it in.
I could make a long list of improvements that made it in over the years, but I will not.
I will only repeat what I said earlier: this is a small company, be realistic.
Meanwhile, enjoy the game or even better, contribute in some meaningful way if you can. I try to, just for the good of the community.
All the best to you Wiggum15!

Late to the party. I am also a Beta and qualify as a genuine fanboiiii I guess
With that out of the way, here come my 2 cents.Wiggum15, your critical attitude towards the game is probably because you are passionate about it. You want it to be better than it is right now, even though the game is already the best of it's kind (IMHO). It is okay to be critical, but you are overdoing it. Too many hyperboles.
The game has significantly evolved since 2007. The difference with SF is huge IMHO. And it is still evolving. Sure, I too wish the rate at which things progress was higher. But this is a small company. Be realistic. I feel we are glad to have this game at all. Becoming a Beta means you get a lot more understanding of how much work a game like this is. I think BFC are doing a great job and I stand in awe at some of the Beta's and their contribution. Without the help of many around here, this game would probably not even be feasible.
Enjoy the game for what it is Wiggum15. It IS a superb game. And it WILL get better all the time, bit by bit. Be critical, sure, but just don't over do it. We will all be around here for long time hopefully, so we might as well enjoy our time here.

Too vulgar for the Pool? Wow, is that even possible?
And the hat is fine. They do not come in slouch models. You will wear this one and that is final, you little ingrate. Dismissed!
-
Rhaaa, lovely, what a sight. Just lovely.
The cesspool is looking up. What a difference a hat makes.
Good show, lads. Good show indeed.
In Dutch, this would be the Poephoofd Parade. Has a nice ring to it, actually, doesn't it?
It's a good thing the Floydian House has introduced a little more class here. It was badly needed. And yes, you are all welcome.
Ow, and sburke, u da man. And you aren't even a Floydian Knight...yet.
-
Ha, the dalem whatsjamcallit wishes no interaction with the Floydian House? So the dalem thingie claims it can actually interact. Hmm, I wonder how? Wouldn't you need at least some kind of intelligence for that? I have not seen any sign of that so far. But he, the dalem blob might surprise us. Perhaps it developed some actual brain matter lately and it now knows it exists. Stay tuned.
-
Wonderful, a city I have always wanted to visit.
Not sure they would let you in Nidan Pyle. Perhaps if you wear your hat they will.
-
Make it a slouch hat and you've got a deal. And nothing half-arsed, PROPORTIONS are EVERYTHING!
Noba.
Here is a hat on that rat:
-
What the hell is this chisl thing? Can we eats it? Smash it? Anybody?
-
Nidan Pyle, the king of cool. Wow, who would have thought.
I wonder were he got that hat, he he he
Now, Nidan Pyle, change your avatar, You know you want to. Just do it!
-
a dalem (whatever it is) on acid is not something that should be allowed near a keyboard.
-
My pixeltruppen are immortal. They are resurrected all the time. Wonderful.
-
Like sburke I am close to this game. But I wholeheartedly agree with him.
After my 1/76 matchbox figurines and cardboard counters later on, CM is a blast.
So, no sburke, it is not just you
Ow, and I am in my fourties.
-
Ow my. Boo looks so cool wearing the hat. Movie star cool. Shame he does not wear it all the time. He should. Really.
-
Another group hug! This time with Steve. And no a$$grabbing this time!
Feedback or no, appreciation or no. Let's all just contribute. Why? Because we can. Onwards comrades!
....
Okay that was kinda cheesy...

Tiens, there is that dalem doodad again. It seems rather harmless though.
