They look fantastic in game.
One thing though, I stand to be corrected, but as I understand it, GaJ isn't going to support BS. Not sure why, but speculation is cost related.
I believe when CMRT was released and mods started being uploaded, the traffic to his site increased hosting costs.

I prefer smaller, infantry-centric battles, and I think the US infantry has the coolest toys to play with. Dat M110 CSASS and dem XM25s
I am starting CMBS with this in mind. Keep it relatively simple in the beginning.
-
Its always this way. Every single release takes longer than they thought it would. Their being pushed on Shock Force demonstrated its a BAD idea. SO....... patience young JEDIs, and would be lieutenants. The game will be along to shatter your delusions soon enough.
I would rather wait and have it done well than go through the ordeal we just went through with the bad updates files for CMRT and CMBN. I'm waiting for the first "Downloading Now" Fake post...
-
We are confident that we can do all of this and release before the end of January.
Perfect timing. My birthday 1.31.

From the Char and Char Alike scenario. Fun with lil panzers.
-
Just finished this. Very well done. The last battle was brutal...basically because I did not cease the initiative.
-
Sounds like a wrong installation order on your part.
Nope. I submitted a ticket and they are trying to figure it out. I wasn't the only one.
-
The units are all named incorrectly. A jeep will be named Morter, etc. The quick battle interface is all wrong. But after buying the Vehicle Pack, 3.11 works.
-
Woo hoo! So I bought the Vehicle Pack. It doesn't need 3.11. I am running 3.10.
Looks good! Thanks
-
I downloaded it, today, unzipped and put in my campaign folder, but can't see the file.
Think this may have something to do with the 3.11 patch issue? I am currently stuck at 3.10 until they sort this out (Mac issues with unit names)
***********
Oh. I re-read the above. Vehicle pack and 3.11. Guess I will have to wait...
-
Like a cat and a mouse. Like a hunter and a deer. Like a woman and a man.
I forgot where I was going with this.
Lost in thought? No map for that.

Honestly in this day and age I have given up on discs. Pretty soon you won't even have a disc reader so I just store the download in multiple locations including cloud storage. Besides it is much easier to reinstall electronic copy.
+1.
Copies on Dropbox, external discs and Google drive. The cloud is your friend.
Safe from everything but the zombie apocalypse.

You might be missing the 2.12 patch. I don't know if the 2.0 upgrade includes that patch. What brz files do you have listed in the data folder?
-
There is a version 3 upgrade, which costs $10. If you do that, then you upgrade using the 3.xx
patches.
BUT, there are some issues with the 3.11 patch. The 3.11 patch completely screws up the unit labeling on some Macs. There is also an issue with PBEM files not working regardless of platform. Check the Tech Support forum for CMBN...you'll see what is happening
You can go to V3.0 for $10 and leave at that for now. Once the patch issues are sorted, then you can do them.
-
Submit a ticket. I have a Mac and when I installed the 3.11 patch everything fell apart. All units are mislabeled, quick battle interface is wrong etc. They are aware of the problem and working on it.
-
I have never seen anything other than arty and tank fire bring a building down.
I also have not since a building as a destroy objective, AFAIK. Occupy a building, sure.
-
I love it. The background stories, the intel, everything. I didn't think i would have interest in this game but I am hooked big time. Very, very good stuff.
-
So you dropped the uniform mods into the z folder and they work?
You don't have to delete the original files. The mod files modify the existing uniforms.
At anytime you can remove the mod files and the original look of the game returns.

Hi all,
I have been playing a game today called "This War of Mine" in which you control a group of civilians living in a bombed out house in Eastern Europe during a civil war. The group scavenges for food and supplies during the night, and spends the days resting, improving their shelter, or manufacturing items they can use or trade. Each day is a struggle to keep fed, healthy and warm. Some members of the group are smokers or coffee drinkers, and get miserable without their daily fix, but coffee and cigarettes are also valuable trade items, so it's a tough choice to consume them. Sometimes raiders come in the night to steal supplies, and sometimes the group is faced with the moral dilemma of whether or not to become raiders themselves. It's a bleak but artistically beautiful game that really makes you think about the civilian casualties of war.
I thought I'd mention it in case anyone wants to try this game whilst waiting for CM:BS. It will give you a new perspective on what life would be like for civilians in a NATO-Russia war over Ukraine. I highly recommend it.
Looks interesting...the POV might not work for some people.
Reminds me of Fallout.
-
First and foremost I think that mistakes are going to be punished. One bad turn, one misunderstood line of sight, one misjudgment about how long a position can be occupied and an entire mech platoon or equivalent will be smoking wreckage.
I'm already experiencing this in BN and RT...I guess I can expect it to happen even faster now
-
That's what I was wondering...are the items addressed in RT 1.01 already done in the others?
-
I love how the crew of the Dingo on the other side of the road bail out immediately.
-
Yeah, that was my problem which really bugged (heh heh) me. You have be to really precise in getting the STuG under the bridge.
Never got that one past the bridge.
-
I thought the scenario maps were too big for the units on them.
You couldn't get right down to ground level with your pixeltruppen's faces right in your face. I liked the idea of picking your units etc...but it just didn't work for me.
Seriously, best game yet!

I am absolutely loving the use of choppers. You hear them come around, here a missile launch and suddenly something blows up. Most amazing thing ever. Course, when I am on the receiving side of that experience, I'm probably not going to enjoy it. But the whole experience is so much different than the WWII titles, which I love.
Fantastic game. Wow.
