  1. A friend and I are trying to start a quick battle via PBEM. He only bought the base game, I the big bündle. The game keeps telling Leo that he Needs the Nato module when he loads my first turn (he can preview the map, set a Password and buy his troops, but as soon as he wants to set up that massage Pops up).

    Is there a way to figure out, which troops belong to the base game and which dont?

  2. Pre deployment, I take screenshots of the map, save them to my tablet and use to study them on my way to work befor setting up. 

    I hate when I lose any of my pixeltruppen and sometimes yell at my screen when I see them die. More then once I lost a game because i withdraw assets from one point to redeploy them somewhere to 'save some man in distress. And it can happen that I level a building with tanks, arti and bombs  to avange fallen man

    It's up to you, of course.  Personally, I find that to be a rather small thing to get peeved about in the grand scheme of what we do.  Again, how much of a difference does it make in practical terms if I come here every couple of weeks to post an update that "the game isn't ready" and posting every single day?  The game won't be out any sooner or any later either way.

    Hi Steve.

    I don't expect a update every day. But a info every 4-6 weeks would be nice. Even if you couldn't share much, a new screenshot now and then would be enough.

    What made me really mad (and is the main reason I cancelled) is that you must have known that you won't be able to deliver end of September but you didn't see the necessity to inform your customers. In my book that's disrespectful.

    I don't need a release date, or even care if it will be 2018, 2019 or 2020.  

     

  4. I am not talking from a alpha version, I am talking from a pre release beta that is 1 to 3 Month away from release to keep the buyers happy. 

    I do understand you arguments @Mord and @Holien but IMHO it doesn't matter if the buyers doesn't  understand the full product or the pre release beta.

    I should have been more specific about my beta idea, sorry. I always ment a version very close to release.

  5. I *think* I have the solution to the "communications problem".

    So if BF don't like/want/can't post little bits of info every now and then, simply let every one that pre-order'd join closed beta.

    People would:

    - see that the games is coming along

    - could join a "beta players only" segment in the forum

    - help finding bugs

    - be more happy

  6. From battkefront.com posted on the front page on August 8 2018:

    The obvious question out there is "when will CMSF2 ship?" We're aiming for no later than the end of September. However, we'll soon release a demo with 4 battles and a training mission. That should help keep you occupied for a while.

    This made me pre-order more then a month ago (if I recall it right the first statement was end of August).

    I pre-order'd the big bundle although I already own CMSF (because I believe BF is worth the money). Still I am getting pissed of because there is no word what so ever. And for the love of the almighty- it's the communications not the lack of a release date that makes me angry

     

  7. @StgHatred as non-native English speaker, I must admit I don't know if your replay is intended to be funny or sarcastic.

    If it's the first, I am sorry but I don't get the joke, if it's the second I fail to understand why.

    A informed customer is a happy customer (at least hear in Switzerland) - even if the info isnt so good

  8. Let's pick up this discussion again:-).

    Today it's the 20th of September. According to the announcement the game and demo should arrive befor the end of month.

    No offence, but this would be the ideal time to clarify if it will happen or not.

    To be perfectly clear, I am not "bashing" nor cursing. My F5 key is getting worn down and would be nice to know if I can keep my old keyboard or if I need a new one :-).

    Cheers

  9. back on topic. 

    The company that provides the flights with the Ju52 is only 13km from were i live. Saying that I am happy that they are still in buissness and that 2 days ago they were back an flying.

    Its in German, basicaly the incident caused a lot of stir, and for a small contry like Switzerland the wellbeeing of the company made it to the frontpage of most of our newspapers.

    Exactly why we are reluctant to post release dates!  In this case I didn't take into consideration that people might take some time off from work this summer.  Silly me!

    Steve

    As much as I do understand your point of view, I would appreciate to have some information at some point. 

    I work in IT and I know how hard it is to keep deadlines. I don't mind waiting. But IMHO it wouldn't hurt to drop some info in advance like "Sorry due to 'reasons' the release must be pushed back or so.

    In my experience most people have understanding for that but are angry if the are left blank.

    Only my 5cents
