Thanks for clearing it up Guys. I assume that green plus is combination of spotter skill/training , device he is using to designate target and overall battlefield situation like smoke on target, distance to a target etc etc. I must admit that Ive never seen such a detailed and realistic fire support system in any other computer game, Im realy impresed.

But due to manual digit next to green plus is number of "barrels" and quoting "gree/red dots showing how quickly the current unit can call in support for that asset".

So, to simplisicate this - the green dots show how quick curent unit can call for sup and green plus shows how accurate support fire will be ?

Thanks for answer. Im impresed with Devs foreseeing, maybe they gona add this equipment in some future patch.

You dont drink ... wine? , oh BOY , maybe You drink FANta ?

Could anyone tell me how - Active Defence, ECM, Laser Destroy and Laser Diffuse works in CMSF ? I found it in manual but cant find any detailed description.

But what hapens when You stay still, maintain LOS to the target and engage different target ? I had a situation yesterday playing first campaign mission, my M1 was calling for light antipersonel support on trenches next to barracks and suddenly M1 spoted another target, I ordered him to open fire and arty mission came pretty unacurate. Was it coincidence or situation like this also affects support accurancy ? My M1 wasnt attacked, he was only pinning down infantry with MG. One more question, whats the best munition to deal with infantry hiding in buildings ? [ April 10, 2008, 11:42 PM: Message edited by: Kirq ]

Sorry Hantar, I dont know how but I didnt noticed You have already posted this vid :/

Im a bit surprised by lack of dust under airbursts. There is so great looking dust after detonations and even after tank main canon blast. I dont see reason why not to generate some random small dust spots under airburst detonation , I would benefit both visual and tactical aspect of the game cause heavy antipersonel barrage would obscure LOS in that area for a long time. I think that this video shows how airburst should look like http://www.splodetv.com/video/usmc-artillery-direct-fire-air-burst

I'd like to see blood in CMSF but there is so much more important actions/aspects without visiual representation that blood wouldnt be first on my list. As I can tell after few days with CMSF, it is game which represents consequences of your actions by tactical changes on battlefield not the detailed visiual effect of actions You perform. I would like have both but if I have to chose one, Ill take realistic tactical simulation instead of great graphics.

Hi luderbamsen, Thanks for answer. Do we know from BFS forums ? Whats Your nick there cause I can't find Your curren nick amongst BFS forums members. But I must say that "msen" part of Your nick and Your location sounds familiar to me @YankeeDog - It sounds great ! PS. Please forgive me this oftopic .

Thanks for quick answer Vulture. What can we expect in Marine Module ? New campaign ? new theatre of war ? New weapons and vehicles ?

I've got a question about Marine module, don't laugh, I'm pretty new here What exactly is it gona be ? A patch with new uniforms, new squad structures etc some new veicles and maybe one or two new weapons ? Or maybe its gona be payed expansion pack with lots of new content, campaign eqipment etc ?

Sound reasonable. You can disengage fortification and relocate but you can't disengage vehicle which is following You so it sounds fair to me to keep last jav just in case.

Holly crap ! Whats that ? A10 CAS ? Looks mighty !

Well, I must admit that tips from tweaking thread helped a bit with my ridiculous FPS. Not tu much but now it is 5-50 not 5-25 Still I'm having lots of anoying lag but a game is bit more playable. Ive played through demo yesterday and I'll propably buy the game. Im just hoping that 1.08 patch is not the last one Thanks for help Guys.

Yes, second screen Is great. Propably due to dust which makes it look very realistic.

But as I said earlier, it is laggy even when it is on pause, no action, no shoting nothing to calculate, only moving over static battlefield. I noticed that when i change field of view to top down and from low altitude I gain abou 300% FPS but the moment I change angle to see more of the battlefield it drops to ~20 sometimes under 10 O_o. It's very hard to find your units on battlefield and give them proper orders when everything lags like hell. No way to play it in real time , only turn based game and even this isn't comfortable.

Thank You Pzman, I'll check it tonight. I hope it will help. I've read manual and I can imagine how many calculations CPU has to handle during large battle but game lags even during pause or unit deplyment so its not tha case. I'm afaid it is just poor engine :/ Actually it is only game that lags on my new rig, didnt played a game which lags on med settings with my new rig. Most of games runs smoth on high settings. I've just played company of heroes which I believe is pretty much demending game and it was running great on high settings.

Hi Guys I've been following this game for a long time, I love realistic war games and I was hopig that this game gona be something great. My first and huge dissapointment somewhere around release day was performance of the demo on my old rig. I decident not to buy the game. Some time passed , I changed my rig and decided to give it another try, I also notice that demo is now patched to 1.07 , great ! I've downloaded the demo, launch it and noticed that absolutely nothing changed since release day..... Could You explain me how it is possible to game which looks like CM:SF ( dont get me wrong, game looks ok to me but its more like decent 2-3 years old graphic, nothing more) runs about 5-25 FPS on my rig : - C2D 6550 ( 2.33 GHz) - 3 GB DDR2 Ram - GF8800GTS - SATA HDD And I event didnt put it on high settings, it was medium or even below medium. Can You exlain me what can I do to enjoy this game ? I really want to buy it but I dont wana play game witch looks like 2-3 years old game and runs worse than Crysis on my rig ? O_o
