I don't know if you the person I contacted with, but I have explained this before in the emails and here too: I'm using a webproxy just is annoying (a lot of reloading) and does NOT allow me to log on to your website. BTW how can anyone spam the website and not the forum? And you are again claiming that you need to "protect" the website from me, so I ask again have I or anybody else from my IP posted any spam? If not, why am I paying for transgressions of others? PS. What's really absurd about your "protection scheme" is that as you can see I can come to the forum and post spam, the only thing I can't do is log-on to battlefront.com and download my purchases or scenarios for them or can't post my scenario...

In the past my contact with Fury software was nothing but good. (Mr. Carter, if I recall the name correctly was always very prompt to answer questions) Still I have a problem with their publisher, first I feel that they are breaking their agreement with me made with my purchases (i.e. allowing me to redownload the install files, mods etc) and I'm afraid of doing the activation should I buy a new computer (when they started blocking my ISP I had all the games activated) but foremost since I think that blocking everybody using this ISP (which is one of the 3 largest ISP in my country) is silly beyond belief I'd like to cede my copies to someone for whom it's less problematic... I'm going to miss SC, but there are a lot of other publishers (e.g. Matrix) who do not do things like that...

1. I have a static IP, which I guess you deem to be my fault. 2. I contacted the webmaster of battlefront.com and they are blocking everyone from my internet provider. Just like that, it's around 2 million people, but who cares? 3. I'm writing this using a web proxy, not an elegant solution. 4. Still if anybody does not have any of the game and wants it for peanuts let me know.

Since Battlefront.com decided to block my IP without a reason, and refuse to unblock it, I don't want to have anything to do with a company like that. So I have the following games to sell: SC - GC SC - GC gold SC2 SC - WaW SC - Patton Is anyone interested? And how do I go about it?

I tried contacting them again, to no avail. Basically the story is that somebody spammed the forum using a similar IP (not the same) and this is a reason to block me and to refuse unblocking. Their solution is for me to use a different IP... I've been with this company since the first SC and I must say this is really disappointing.

Thanks, I did that and it seems that battlefront decided to block every IP from my internet provider. Which is unfair, and borders on illigal. I have bought 5 games from them up to now, well, I will not buy another.

Hi, I have a serious problem, I can't access battlefront.com, it just doesn't open. I have tried using different browsers and operating systems to no avail. At the moment I'm writing this using web proxy, that's the only way I can access it, but I can't log on to the main site. I live in Poland and my email is mikolajwitkowski@yahoo.pl

Thank you very much for prompt answer.

I'm thinking about buying the game and I'm mostly interested in WW2 so my question is how big in terms of tiles is the 1939 scenario? Is it the same format as the ww1 ones?

Good point, speed is nice, but it's not what really matters.

It may not be the best place to ask this, but if the new expansion and WW1 use similiar engine does it mean that WW1 has the same research system? (I haven't bought ww1 yet and hence the question)

where can I pre-purchase the expansion? I can't see it anywhere on the battlefront site...

I must say I'm really happy with the feature list, esp. the research changes (been asking for something like that since Blitzkrieg came out) but the price is a tad high...

I would love a bigger map. But I'm not sure it's feasible with this engine, AI turns are long as it is. Your example with super fighters is actually the reason why we need some big modifications to the research system. As for the sub, I have never noticed, it's a TBG, so it's not that every second matters

No, but we could get some more campaigns. New research system, battle scenarios etc, etc.

Actually I think it's a good idea if they didn't be available to buy with soft limits. I like soft limits as they allow me to have greater control over the composition of my army, but it does not mean I want, or want my opponent to, buy units that are not really compatible with the scale of the scenario. So how about introducing this change in 1.04? Those who want them badly can always re-enable them in the editor

This is not such a big problem, one of the biggest strengths of SC that makes me come back to it over and over again (despite the lack of hexes is the fact that so many rules are optional. Any change to the research system this late in the game's life should be optional of course.

Yes I know, there are lots of good solutions (personally I'm for abandoning the random factor altogether) but they usually require big changes to the system, here I wanted to suggest something less invasive that could be implemented in a patch

That's why this is just a slight raising the chance as time passes, it still may fail, just becomes more likely. Usually after all those fiascos something useful appeared. No major power used the same equipment in 1945 as in 1939, while in SC this is quite possible.

For me the biggest fault of the current research system is that you can invest in a technology at the start of the game and many years later it is still not researched. This should not be so, new weaponry is largely an improvement upon existing designs not some random discovery. Sooner or later there should be results. So I propose that the game should keep track of how long a given tech has been researched and provide a bonus based on that time (e.g. 3% for every 10 turns?)

Of course, I've just sent it.

Great to hear Hubert!

All with GC 1.03 running in windowed mode. 1. ALT-TAB is erratic at best, from time to time the game starts staying on top of other apps no matter what, only game's restart helps. 2. in windowed mode there is still one more freezing screen - diplomacy screen freezes (i.e. stops updating itself) after buying a chit. 3. Very often upon closing of the game I get a message that the app crashed and needed to be closed. It's only when I close it anyway so no big deal.

Currently strategic map shows sleeping units with unblinking symbol, but on the normal map they look the same as other units. How about making their "not moved" symbol not flashing too?

This has been annoying me since the SC2:Blitzkrieg came out. Could we please get a possibility to turn off music without turning off all the sounds? As probably many others I listen to the music while playing, I like battle sounds but the menu music means I have to start the game, alt-tab and load my music afterwards...
