Good idea! KSP uses the same Forum engine and it has a built in poll feature. But I'll try your way. Once I get a few more ideas I'll try it

I thought it was like less than 5. Seems great considering. It does seem like it has almost the same UI as the 20 yr old version though.

Ha! They don't mix too good with machine guns.

It doesn't have to be exact. I've been playing SF2 on sand and I ended up downloading the wonderful terrain squares because I was having real troubles with LOS/FOV. I know that is a realistic part of a sandscape environment, but still... it helped. It didn't help me enough. Lost 5 Challengers in a single turn when reinforcements popped up out of literally nowhere (I'm not bitter)! Ok maybe I had just turned my back on that part of the map thinking no reinforcements were coming... But anyway, imperfect is fine as long as the player has a choice of if they want to use it or not and while reinforcements spawn out of sand (I'm not bitter).

Time and location. What features were you thinking of @Bufo?

Battlefront, Could you create a poll to see what your customers would like to see next in a Battlefront release? I've heard you guys mainly concentrate on topics that really appeal to you (which makes a lot of sense). I would like to see if your customer's interests line up with any of your passions. I, for one, would love to see a game centered on either the Arab-Israeli wars or Afrika Corps.

I would pay good money for a Field of View button. I think it is Graviteam Tactics games that has that. A real life saver. A click and an arc spreads out over your field of view so that, at a glance, you can see... what you can see. Any chance this could be added to any future patches (I'm sure the MoD would be willing to pay for it).

That is a good explanation @Heirloom_Tomato. Thanks. I'm guessing from the dates, that the desert terrain is not North Africa. Are there any user made scenarios set there?

Really having fun with CMBS and CMSF2. I have some really epic 1 minute movie clips! Slow and steady, eyes open, wins the race in both these games. I know this won't be controversial at all, but which is the best of the WWII series? BTW, I would pay good money for a Field of View button. I think it is Graviteam Tactics games that has that. A real life saver.

Is there a fix?

Whoa!

Well that's great news! I have no problem paying for good DLC.

Not the answer I was hoping for, but thanks! Too bad modders can't add completely new units. I understand some wouldn't work at all since a new game mechanic would have to be added (like MLRS). But since CMBS is 'theoretical', it would be nice to try out different units (even if modders would have to go to town on them to bring them up to date).

This is probably a question you get all the time, but if I bought CMBS can I buy the Marines, NATO, and British units from CMSF2 and use them in CMBS since they use the same engine? It specifically says the Afgan-Soviet game is incompatible. Also, are there any CM games that have the Arab-Israeli Wars and/or OOB?

Ok. It didn’t take long playing the demo until I decided it was well worth the price tag. What a great game! I’m really enjoying it. When you play on easy settings, does that make it easier to destroy enemy vehicles and easier for friendly vehicles be destroyed? It seems pretty hard to show your face and survive.

Well, I downloaded the Demos and they are pretty awesome, I must say.

As the title says, I just ran across my Combat Mission games again. I had the original Overlord and Barbarossa disks. Wow! Its come a long way! I'm downloading the demo now, but it looks like Black Sea is probably the best for the conventional modern battlefield. Would that be true? Kind of a steep price tag for an older title, but I'm willing to pay it if it is as good as it looks.
