Because you cant even send all units to attack something at the same time, its impossible. And forget about all those nice tactical orders from pulldown-menu. During giving a single squad advanced tactical orders all others units cant be watched by the player. The good old military simulation game will be degrade to a more arcade style game. So i am really afraid that CM:N becomes a C&C game with more realism. P.S. the only way to cover these things would be a 2vs2 3vs3 MP-mode but that doesn't exists either.

Its getting worse and worse but thanks for the answer.

CM:SF has only a real-time MP-mode - CM:N uses the same engine. 1+1=2

Is it correct, CM:N wont have a turn-based multiplayer game mode ?

You can buy NATO module in germany seperatly on DVD ? Where did you bought it ?

Is CM:N using the same engine than CM:SF ? (i hope not ...)

Ok here is the "real" CMBB ^^

I dont talk about frames by the way, they are not that important to me as i play with WEGO since CMBO. I talk about the image quality - look at those ugly trees+colors, the crapy shadows, the lowres textures on those mountains and even the hindukush-mountain-backround-wallpaper is lowres with a crack in the middle .... seriously guys this is not up to date anymore. But i guess we will hear always the same from BF about the whole calculations that must be done "under the hood" which prevend the game from looking good ... Maybe thats the reason why we dont get any seriously screenies from CM:N ? But as long as this 10 years old game looks good enough i dont care about CMxxx :-) Super Sampling AA for the win

Mars has a beautiful landscape but this game ..... no words. Honestly guys its 2010 and this is not working anymore. Jesus please dont let CM-N looks like this crap

Ok i figured it out - you need to use the nVidia-Inspector Tool to force any SSAA mode you want.

thnx i will give it a try.

Bought that new gfx card (GTX460) but cant activate the famous super sampling AA mode via nHancer. (to be honest i cant use any AA in CMBB right now) My old gfx card (8800 gts) could use SSFAA. Any ideas about that ? Greets Marc

Thanks for the reply George. Now i know that the problem was unmasking all my stuff to the enemy. I read the briefing especialy the first point of my missions order but i didnt even know that the AI can get points for IDing my units in CMSF. (iam an old CMBB veteran :-)) I will give it another test, its a hard nut to crack but i wont give up. Marc

I played it a fifth time :-) - again only a draw. Enemy had 12 men left ... i lost 5KIA,1WIA,1 M1 and 1 M2. 4700 points (me) vs 3700 points (AI) Its unreal

Hi George as i wrote you in email i endet up with a draw in this campaign. I decided to play again (and again and again) to see if i can achieve a victory, especialy in the 4th mission. After 4 attempts i gave up. Thats the best i could do So i think there must be something wrong with the winning condition because i lost nearly nothing and killed nearly everyone. The AI got 56 men left and most of them are verhicle crews ... So whats the matter with that mission ?

Hey Steve are there going to be the detailed hit reports of CM1 like "upper hull penetration" etc. ? Greets Marc

That it guys, but that isnt new to combat mission players, its called AI.

What is the goal of that mission ? cleaning the map or just the "green ambush zone objektive" ?

Mh problem solved right now - the AI surrendered to me after 30 minutes (2 hours left) strange mission ... but was funny. Thanks for answering anyway, i guess you are right, it had something to do with enemy casualties.

The only option is to play in realtime and have fraps running all the time.

Create a save at the beginning of each round, record each round with fraps and rip+cut the whole video afterwards. (be sure to have a few terrabytes on free space at you harddrive ^^ ) In case of CMSF i guess a huge amount of information would be needed to create a 1 or 2 hour video/replay file. By the way, the IL-2 "record system" was a big ****, even Oleg Maddox told that in an interview and he said he wont use that kind in any simulation again.

Iam playing "op. hammersm." (by Ewan McGregor) right now but iam a bit confused about the briefing and the goal of that mission. The only objective on the map is "Obj. AVIEMORE" at the and of the map. It took me only 30-40 minutes to reach that obj. while driving down the "white route highway". Now iam in the area 2 hours time left, cleaned all buildings and "searched for documents ?" but nothing happens ! Do i have to kill all enemy fighters or is there something else ? Need some help here. Greets Marc

Give em more commands at the beginning

Steve did you guys ever thought about settle CMSF in the"cold war Nato vs Warsaw pact" scenario ? Wouldn´t that be much easier to balance the game and gather informations about TO&E etc. ?

My british+marines bundle download was at v.1.20 so i had to download 1.10 (for my CMSF) and the 1.21 update for the rest.
