Erwin, I agree that there is benefit in a tried and tested game. This is exactly what I already own and this is why I beg the question. So when we look at the series, yeah you are getting into hundreds of dollars. When you think to buy another title, one has to ask, what does this give me and where is it headed? Each installment isn't cheap, then you factor in the 10$ upgrade fees to keep the game going. It's like you're paying for map packs essentially.

Also, Boeing has proposed a modernized Avenger system with AIM9X implemented so the Avenger program is alive. From the sources I can see it's still in service anyways. I can't bring myself to believe that the US would dismantle it's ENTIRE forward SAM force to use as patrol HUMVEES https://www.defense.gov/News/Article/Article/1260222/

Honestly for a game that's 4 years old now, paying full price is laughable. It's also not really for you to dictate the financial freedom of others. Some may have the cash to throw at games willy nilly, others don't. Being Canadian, it actually increases the cost for me when you look at exchange. I can also see that by not even addressing the question you really have nothing constructive to say in defense of CM:BS If that's true why would the Linebacker not be implemented in it's place? If were talking fiction, a War in Europe with a modern army, such assets would be brought to bear so that argument is really mute. This isn't an insurgency game.

Hi gents, I'm not really active in the CM community but I've played the CM:SF + NATO + Marines + Upgrade patch in single player since the games first came out. I've enjoyed them immensely and they've given me a RTS experience that is really unparalleled. I come back to the series every year to get my fix. The question I have after having a look at CM:BS and playing the demo is; is this game really worth what you pay? From what I see, the units are basically the same ones from the original series and there's not much that's new, you're getting less really. Sure, it's got some neat command and game-play features that are new but, those are essentially patch worthy changes. So my question to those who have experience with CM:BS is; what has it got to offer for such a steep price? Follow up questions; 1. Why are there no Avenger SAM systems for the US, there's a big discrepancy given that Russia gets the Tunguska (lol) and, why does Russia not get upgraded T80U's from inventory? 2. What is the future of CM:BS, will this game grow and expand, can we plan to see development like new nations added such as Belarus, Finland or Poland etc..? Thanks in advance for any input the community can provide, Bird

First off, thank you for your hastily reply. And its quite sad to hear of this disbandment, there is a lacking in good tank sims. If i may press the matter, is it forsable or possible that Battlefront could independently or with a new development team produce a new Tank sim? I only ask knowing that you already have a massive variety of products lined up? Thank you, Blackbird.

Hello gents, this is a public shout out to the Battlefront crew concerning T72BOF! I'm an old time player of this sim and had quite a lot of fun at it, on occasion i still find myself coming back to it here and there. Its a great tank sim and it screams for a little love and perhaps a sequel. This was a game with much promise but came to a halt in its development as did T34 Vs Tiger which I'm sure we all remember. So my question in general is; Is there any potential for a sequel or perhaps a new tank sim all together? And if you guys have not put any thought to it i would love to drill the idea in your heads The community is there without question, and a lot of people don't want to dish out the dough for a sim like SB PE 2.6. Not to mention, it is also showing its age. I would appreciate any feed back be it be from my fellow tankers or the staff at battlefront! Blackbird.

Thats quite unfortunate. They're aren't many good tank games out to date. steel beasts being the only exception i can think of, but i don't got $$ for that set up. casual gamers have ruined it for us all!

Hi all i just want to put a shout out there and say hello! As well i wanted to know if anyone was aware of a sequel or an expansion in progress. I feel this game needs one. more tanks better graphics and more interaction with your tank, this game has so much potential!
