I lived in London, so I don't think that way Oh, like the fact that the UK has national health but the ambulance drivers were able to go on strike for the better part of a year. Not much good comes of health coverage if you die in a taxi cab on the way to the hospibalOriginally posted by Battlefront.com:Wunwinglow,

Hertston,
Thanks for the explanation! I knew the Channel Islands were unique under British law, but until you just said this I didn't understand why. I'm just surprise it took this long to go after them seeing as the British government has spent so much time hunting down "pirate radio" broadcasters and people who haven't paid their tele tax

That's the main problem that a lot of people have been complaining about. The shift towards greater 1:1 detail in CMSF, while it may be visually more realistic, creates unrealistic results. In a game, it's the behavior of units and the results of player actions that really matter.

The issue in CMx2, right now, is that the individuals within the unit don't reposition themselves based on this. Well, at least not to the degree that the should. We'll work on that.

LOL This is so funny.Originally posted by dpabrams:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by Bloodstar44:
I don't have anything at all about games on Fourth Reich between some other ragheads but you must realise that we don't have HISTORICAL DISTANCE like in WW2 case.
So spare me your pathetic tirrade. Why we don't have anything against Third Reich games? Just because this historical distance is there.
And I didn't made up lousy sales in Europe of CM: SF. Politics aside.
Hmmm...somehow I see "locked thread" sign in a distance
Star Buddy,
Give it up. Not having a point and speaking lousy English is another handicap. Maybe you should learn Arabic. Better yet read, "America Alone" by Mark Stein, if you people aren't burning copies of it yet. </font>

oh yes all those idiotic customers all the time. they are just a pain in the ass. Why they dont just buy whatever we sell them and pay whatever we charge them. There should be a law for that.Originally posted by Sixxkiller:Being a tester of numerous games to my credit, I still cant believe the idiotic comments that come from gamers.
First off, BFC is like a mom and pop store. They cant compete in lots of ways because they dont have a $2 Million budget for testing, they dont have money to pay testers to quit thier day jobs and play for 18 hours a day. They dont have every video card sent to them by the makers to ensure stability.
How they compete is SERVICE, product quality, and by reputation.
Now what the idiotic masses cant comprehend is that being a small company, with 1 and I mean 1 programmer, who cant work 30 hours in a day (even though
Good thinking. So the only thing i have to do is open a small underfunded company and I can sell any crap i want. Or did i miss something here.
so they compete with product quality and reputation. so i sincerely congratulate for the great product quality of cmsf and the reputation it will build.
oh yes the idiotic masses again that really expect value for money. its really a shame

if u want to establish a strategy or tatctics u need the possibility to start out of sight of your opponent.Originally posted by Rollstoy:CMx1 was having to sit 4 hours in front of the computer to play a one hour scenario. 1.5 hours out of those 4 were spent moving to contact.
This is how I remember CMx1!
How did you put it: But CMx1 was not fun.
Best regards,
Thomm
of course if u like a slugfest out of the setup zones cm1 will not do it
-
of course they do how else would u balance a scen against the ai? nobody ever looses a game against the ai because of its superior tactics and logical thinking.Originally posted by Michael Withstand:All my units not just the Abrams miss their target a lot.
u loose because the scen is tweaked towards the ai. they can easier kill u than u can kill them
-
also against a human opponent or just against an incapable aiI prefer RT and personally have no problems controlling a company-size force on Elite level in the campaign so far. [/QB]

i am sticking with the reviews and they claim the that game from 86 was much superior to the latest one. in fact the currant one should be full of bugs lasts only for a short time and as u said very expensiveOriginally posted by thewood:You are so far behind. He's playing Advanced Roger the Magnificent (ARtM) and I heard it rox. The only problem is its expensive and the games are short. Sequel next year.

hell no he should concentrate on pitching. as long as he gives up 5 in 6ip he has a computer ban as far as i am concerned </font>Originally posted by thewood:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by fritzthemoose:

according to some stuff i found on the net the m1 protection level is less than leopard II, challanger and some other western ones. as for the russians it looks like their armour overall is a little bid less but they do have a much lower siluette.Originally posted by JasonC:Actually, the M-1 excels precisely on the score of frontal arc armor, certainly compared to anything Russian. (Leopard II and best Brit or Israeli stuff is same league, though). It also has the most advanced sensors and ballistic computers, though some of the best western European models match that.

thats a very good point here. the game was not only designed for a different customer group with regards to rt but also for people who play vs the ai and not vs humans.Originally posted by Bruce70:BF and Steve in particular are adamant that the bulk of their customers play vs the AI. They must also realise that many of those players play QBs.
playing mainly or only vs the ai, im my personal opinion, means that u dont really look for a real challange or realistic behavior because u know that u cannot get it. its a simple fact that no computer in the world is able to create an ai even remotly close to the human brain. it does has its merrits tho. u dont have to set time aside for a tcip nor do u have to sit around and wait for turn. u can simply fire up the game whenever u like and play.

Hmm... ok, that makes a bit more sense, but given that we hopefully won't be fighting the French, the Brits, the Isrealis or the Germans, I hope it doesn't matter </font>Originally posted by Neepster:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by fritzthemoose:
I think they did not only compare against the russian and chinese tanks but also against the Leopard, Leclerce, Challanger Typ-90 Merceva and so on

the german wikipedia claims that it is possible to penetrate the front armour with an at-4 more often than notOriginally posted by Flanker15:I don't know how strong it is but I had a M1 ignore 5 AT-4 hits to the area of the turret ring just under the barrel. I usually think of that area being the weakest place on front turret armor but I could be wrong, also shouldn't the hits atleast damage the gun?
-
I guess that depends on what problems are just bugs and can be fixed and which ones are designrelated and cannot be fixedOriginally posted by undead reindeer cavalry:i don't think the game is nearly as bad as some make it sound. it has great potential even if it feels a bit strange at the moment. i bet the game plays a lot better by Christmas and if some of the CM fans won't buy it just yet, they will buy it later when it has matured enough.
-
I think they did not only compare against the russian and chinese tanks but also against the Leopard, Leclerce, Challanger Typ-90 Merceva and so onOriginally posted by Neepster:Hmm... that sounds rather optimistic unless they are comparing it solely against tanks even newer (I think the Chinese have the Type 99 and the Russians have the T-90)...
I read something similar in the mid 90s as well, which obviously wasn't true against the T-72s and T-80s of Saddam...

in the german wikipedia it saysOriginally posted by Neepster:After reading the wiki article for the M1
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1_Abrams
Particularly the armor part, I am less concerned that this behavior is unrealistic. Sounds like even the M1 has trouble killing the M1 in real life from the front and that there are documented cases of multiple APFSDS rounds to the frontal armor not penetrating...
I guess I will make sure never to attack them from the front then...
Mit seinem Schutzniveau ist der M1A2 mittlerweile als veraltet anzusehen.
translated by now the protection level of the m1a2 has to be considered obsolete

Dunno Michael - it just came up as one of the first reviews in Google. I thought it was interesting, but personally take all review 'scores' with a bucket of salt. If anyone wants to argue against its validity then I won't be defending it.
