    The Abrams killer thing was a joke btw. A blatantly obvious attempt to wind up people that succeeded.

    But yes I am convinced about the first part. Signs point toward many hats getting eaten in May.

    Stagler got a reaction from Haggard Sketchy in BMP-3 vs Bradley   
    The 30mm on the 2a72 would be saboted so it would negate the effect of the ERA on the Bradley.
    Yes BMP-3 is made of paper, but how much better off is the Bradley?
     
    As an aside where was the Bradley getting hit? I think its the unfortunate Bradley model that the AI targets targets the hardest parts due to the aiming mechanic, If the BMP-3 was firing at the turret then im sure it would be different.
    Hopefully we can see a few more versions of the 3M in later expansions, like this one with Bakchka-U and Composite armour addons. Gurdy is working on this for us at RHS at the moment. Seems to be an older turret module as it lacks the commanders independent viewer.

    Stagler got a reaction from A Canadian Cat in In-game spotting system: are you kidding me?   
    Haha, it demonstrates the bug clearly. Is that not enough? So does my picture set. I went and provided evidence that was asked for. Does it make me any less wrong when the evidence is clearly there because I have an opinion?
     
    Im surprised you took the time to find all the threads I have posted in. Well done. You missed my one about the BTR spotting though.
     
    I can complain and argue all I want, someone has to on here. I also couldn't give a f about what people think about my opinion, I will voice it anyway, I think that should be obvious.
     
    Also, wood, I feel as though you are directing most of your angst against me here, when Antares has similar conclusions. Is that some sort of personal vendetta I see developing there?
     
     
     
     
    I say this because of what was said to Vladimir about the accuracy of GLATGM on page one of this thread, if that isn't someone glossing over something and underestimating a piece of kit, then I don't know what is :

    Ha, cheers Oakheart. I cant take credit for the work of Alex though he is the driving force.
     
    Burke, believe or not but as gamers, we have a good idea of what makes a good game. Maybe not a successful business, granted, but what sets games above the bar, and what is the industry standard when we go out and spend our hard earned cash on games.

    If your just going to dismiss what I said as "RTS click festers and frag-a-maniacs" then you don't have a clue about your prospective player base, I am sorry. Sure there is the option of continuing to manufacture games for the sole denizens of this forum I guess. But who am I to know eh, aren't we all just "joe public" at the end of the day.

    Maybe it would be a good idea to have some sort of better bug reporting and seeing what is being currently worked on framework like github or devheaven.

    If someone was to judge by my avatar and sig AKD then they might think differently if they didnt think to ask, or know me from BI forums or somewhere. Seemingly hilarious as you may find people assuming individuals nationalities, I remember accusations being thrown around of several forum members being SVR officers not so long ago...
     
    Russian kit is universally under-rated in defence, this is often the case in all things regarding Russian kit whether it be simulations, wargames, etc. The experience of 1991/2003 goes a long way to provide this thought base. It is often dismissed on here as well, granted not by yourself, but has been since CMA. If I feel the need to provide data I will find a source (but not ingame turns as I dont play much turn based).
    I was saying that I think an M1A2 is worth 3 T-90AM in CMBS, combat value wise. I dont think anyone has any real life hard data to back that up to be honest.
     
    For aircraft launched AGM:
    Top speed of Kh-25 is explained here as 870m/s, or cruising speed of 670m/s. So that would qualify for Trophy to intercept.
    http://www.deagel.com/Anti-Armor-Weapons-and-Missiles/Kh-25ML_a000809001.aspx
    Interestingly it also does not mention the SU-34 as an operator of the missile, but it is almost certain that it can if required.
     
    Back onto the spotting topic: The inclusion of ESSA is abstract as T-90AM isnt real, but T-90S export for india is equipped with the system. It is how we say in the industry, a realistic possibility, for it to be fitted to T-90AM/MS in a hypothetical 2017 situation - the same as Trophy which is not widely distributed at this time. 
    To give a grounding of my thinking and where I am coming from, my bias as you say, begs me to think that if the inclusion of Trophy was thought of for the US systems, which in October last year talks were had over the purchase of the system but nothing concrete signed I believe, why was ESSA not included as it is included in export model of T-90S, when T-90MS is also an export piece?
    If we are going up against the US A-team, can we have the OPFOR A-team as well? I know T-90AM was included so the capability gap could be bridged somewhat. Hopefully by may I will have had better look at Armata, and that may be bridged further - even if it is only the crew suviving the vehicle being destroyed

    Stagler got a reaction from Oakheart in How much would you pay for an improved AI upgrade   
    I think ai is probably what should be looked at second anyway. Multiplayer framework should be the first port of call. Some kind of third party lobby or matchmaking system. The free ware version of c&c95 had one integrated where it booted up a windows based game browser client, and you saw games hosted and could chat to other players in in the lobby. Then when you joined a lobby and started it booted the game and connected to the host.

    Anti-nodding is a bad stance to have. Obviously simple mods can be made. But games with access to source code flourish with new content. RHS for example, we have actually made better content than the base product due to an efficient and knowledgeable team.

    Stop with the semantics Joch it is clear that you know what I mean.
     
    Map size and squares and elevation are irrelevant. All AI is is algorithms that enact different things. Move foward with recon type of unit towards objectives. Spot enemy unit. Send forward attacking units to that point to engage.
     
    Those three actions there alone are the basis of most strategy game AIs and have proved more than sufficient to serve as an opponent, even to this day. If AI in red alert can do this twenty years ago on unlimited sized maps also within an engine based on OpenGL, then it can be developed for CM. It cant be done is not a valid argument anymore.
     
    Not having the capability/staff to do it is another matter entirely, a matter which my strong advocation of better advertising and steam compatability to generate sales and revenue relates to but that is a different topic.
     
    @sburke, world peace and something that players have taken for granted since command and conquer 95 are different things.

    Seriously though, QBs are meant to have AI assigned. What map were you playing, a default one?
