From manual: From this thread i've understand that vehicle will not rotate its hull until it has stoped thus while moving it should turn it's turret to that direction. Am I wrong?

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I tried to give face order to tanks many times but they don't want to turn their turrets in that direction. nothing still nothing

Thanks. Now I understand. Isn't it a little strange that mortars can use radio from a vehicle regardless of their c2 link but can't use radio of their Company HQ?

thnx, Fraps is working Heavy weapon Platoon HQ with radio in contact with F Company HQ. Only one mortar available Coy HQ next to all 3 mortars. Only one of them shows that is in contact with Coy Rest of them shows that are not in contact. Although later i found that company hq in this position can call all of them(but not forward spotter) What an I doing wrong?

Ok, I see you don't take me seriously so I wanted to make screen shot. I found this key but when I'm making screenshot it takes picture of my desktop or opened window but not the game screen itself. I have installed program for making screenshots and it's same problem. Any ideas? Yeah... only problems with me hehe

I thought I have understand how does it work but no. In one scenario I had 2 infantry platoons and one heavy weapon platoon. This last one had radio and my company HQ had it too. So I have grouped all mortars together with platoon HQ with radio. My Company HQ was intended to be in contact with assaulting infantry and to act as a spotter. And everything was good. All mortars were in contact with Coy HQ ready to fire. Then I've started this scenario once more and I did exactly the same as previous. But this time only one mortar(from heavy weapon platoon) was in contact with Coy hq, second had a green light near Coy HQ although he still was out of contact and third was out of contact and reported that is out of contact. I thought that I did something wrong so I start this scenario once more and exchange heavy platoon HQ(now he was a spotter) with Company Hq(he was attached to mortars) still it didn't worked. Company HQ was few meters from mortars but only one of them was in contact with him! Once again it was this one from heavy weapon platoon. Rest of them didn't even see Coy HQ! I can't make screen shot right now. i've got some strange Italian(probably) keyboard and I can't find adequate key . If this would be necessary I can install program for making screenshots

yeah laugh at me, but I think my English is quite good despite I have never ever learn it Beelzeboss is correct http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cg_iz6yBu2I Forget about this patch/upgrade dispute. It doesn't change anything, that's true. But I like to complain and I like Combat Mission so I complain even more when something is not like I wanted to be But I couldn't understand (and still can't) for example why such things like movable waypoints or cover armors (which was some basic things in CMx1) couldn't be implemented in a base game, not even in a patch. You are saying this is something more which should be sell as an upgrade. And I'm asking why can't you sell finished game and then develop and improved it for money instead of selling your product sliced into pieces? Forget about previous version of Normandy. That was my opinion and it doesn't matter now. I found there too many irritating bugs and the engine was horribly optimized

They were regular. Maybe I had bad luck then

No, Normandy was unplayable and full of bugs until many patches were released and that was why I didnt buy it before. That's what I mean. Just like GTA IV ;P But this is not reason to be proud of this

sorry, I'm a little unreliable No, I didn't call any one sect or fan boy just because someone is supporting you. In fact I have supported you too... at least I have bought your game But I didn't started this. People here(not everyone of course) said something like geez another funny troll from the moon who is too stupid to realize obvious things(yes, not so literally, but it sound like this) that is ungrateful for your games and your efforts in improving it just like you will be doing favor for cusomers by making your games. I'm not reading this forum everyday. In fact I almost did not read about new CM until I decided to buy it And I have bought a game and afterwards i realized that i will probably have problems with playing multiplayer. Then after few minutes of playing i have found that for some reason such obvious things like movable waypoints or cover armor arcs were removed from the game and they will be not added in a regular patch, because you didn't promised such things. If I want it I have to buy "update". Maybe you guys think that this is not good reason to be angry and something is wrong with me but I was angry as hell. Nobody here No wait, even here there were few of them. But yes I know they are livining in a world of fantasy like me, like everyone that don't agree with you As I said. I do understand your definition of patch/upgrade but as i said I don't agree. I don't care, probably you had too work very hard for many hours for it but it's content is somehow small(ok, you will say that it's not small but that is my opinion). Most things contained there are seen in other patches (in most games patch is not only thing that repair bugs but also contains additional, never promised features). And patches are traditionally free.(and that's not my fantasy world) So why you are surprised when there are people(specially peopole who don't live on this forum and don't read if everyday) who sees such 'upgrade' and are supprised that they must pay for it? I will be swinish It should look like this: Charge $xx for unplayable game(Normandy) Add lot of patches to make it playable Add few vehicles and maps for $xx Add support for continued new features for $zz aka payable patches Than make new game with few changes. In the end make 8 similar games with 4 modules each and payable, but sustaining life patches Jeez... I have explained those "bears". it was funny at the beginning but now it is not

I will blame AI not my generalship ;P Plan was good They should hide and pass the tank(stuart) open fire on advancing infatnry and then withdrow(they had good route for this). to next position (where was a gun waiting for that stinki stuart) But they ignored cover arc (tank wasn't in it) and hide command. Sometimes it's better for unseen infantry not to fire! and wait. It's basic thing in any ambush

Firing with rifles to tanks is not realistic specially without order or from long distance . I see nothing has changed since release of this game. Few minutes ago I had regular soldiers hiding in a building who thought that firing with rifles to a tank from 140 meters is good idea. Yes, they have succeed! The tank has close the hatches but 20 sec later my squad was dead. Yes sometimes this is useful but only when this is planned and coordinated. But many times they should pass the tanks and engaged infantry only but this is impossible to do or maybe I just don't know how to do that? Maybe you will fix this in next "upgrade"(don't mistake this for patch ) Oh and in these case infantry has ignored even hidding order

unfortunately it is very true

... and this thread is to discuss... well what exacly? To write paeans? Dear Battlefront I love you and I'm thankful for cover armor arc with your 10$ patch. I wish i have real hunt order(instead of move to contact from older CMs) in next 3.0 patch Michael Emrys - please don't try to explain me that patches are still free and this is not patch but something more. I have already said something about this "upgrade" and if you are ready to pay for patch ok, go for it but don't try to persuade others that this is something more than regular patch. I'm starting to think that you really believe this. You are creating your own definition of what is and what is not a patch

You are so sick of people like me yet you create new threat for this. Very smart indeed. And I'm sick of how uncritical are most of people here, repeating like mantra over and over again what Battlefront said to them

Streety- thnx for sympathy I was supposed to finish this but one last time I'm not socialist mentality. I really do understand that things cost money but you are resistant to the fact that Battlefront is the only one publisher who wants money for patches. If you accept everything then Battlefront will do anything they want and you will be happy anyway(maybe payable demos, payments for mods or something) cause this is capitalism! Even in capitalism(specially in capitalism?) you have to fight for your rights but you prefer to be passive. But I can understand that you are ready to pay for it,it is your choice but don't claim that this is normal and that my socialist mind don't get something. And yes, I still can play with 1.11 versions(for now) but there are not so many players and in time there probably will be even less of them cause most of the people who dint't accept such policy did not bought this game and those who bought are happy of such things and accept everything BF will do(and they will do anything they want). Now, I haven't read whole forum before buying the game and that is probably my huge mistake but there wasn't info in description of the game that this version will be incompatible with majority of other games. That's all and such discussion is pointless. Good bay and happy new year Edit: Ok, thnx, that is some kind of solution but that is dependent on other player but still it is solution hehe sorry my bad. I meant beers ;P Cheers

Thnx for that good advice but no thnx. That's why US sucks I think it was joke, right? The price of this patch was the most uniportant thing i have wrote and I don't care how much does it cost. I wrote this only to anticipate arguments like "hey this is only 10 dolars it's one bear, who cares" or something like this. 10 dollars is not equal to everyone and not because I'm poor(neither rich) but because of thing called currency rates which makes this patch cost for me like normal games from markets. But as I said I'm not even angry on this. I'm angry cause I have bought a game which I can't play in multiplayer(at least hard to) and someone is persuading me that patch is an upgrade and I'm stupid or something because i don't see difference between these two

OK, I will just reply this and I'll drop it You guys are like sect here lol You accept everything BF and go through Ecstasy when they give you smallest bollocks and even want users to be thankful for their benignity cause they didn't promised to make this game better lol. When someone complain about Battlefront or game itself you say geez another troll. But I have bought this game and I have right to say something. but reading some posts here I think that I should be grateful Battlefront for selling me this game and patches not vice-versa. Very interesting view of customer. What surprise me the most is not that someone here will pay for patch but fact that almost everyone even believed that this is something more than patch and even praising BF for their grandeur. This is example of this never promiesd features: Moveable Waypoints Ability to assign special uniform types for select units types on a unit by unit basis. Target Armor Arc Command Expanded Floating Icon Categories "Fog of War" Floating Icons 2D Editor Map Overlay Auto-Assemble Road/Wall/Hedge Tool Camera Jump to Groups Target Briefly Command New Rendering Shaders Bump and Normal Mapping Improved Framerates Pausable Realtime TCP/IP Mode ... and yes some more Dear Battlefront you are so generous. You didn't have to do this but you did and we are all grateful to you. Maybe we should make a statue or better an altar for BF. In every other game such thing is called patch. You are the only one who claims that patch is an upgrade because you didn't ever promised its contents. LOL Customers who thinks that patch is so called upgrade... priceless Wow, yes I know this. I have said that. Of caurse I don't have to buy it> but I have just bought this game recently and I can't play multiplayer because I have bought an outdated version of game! You got it? See difference between buy it if you want or not and buy it or stop playing it? In other words you are selling an outdated version of this game which is almost useless in multiplayer game! And for this you are expecting my gratefulness. Otherwise piss of and don't buy it if you don't like. It's shame... And this 10$ is not so small for me. Maybe you guys are mostly in Western Europe or US and but in Eastern Europe with actual exchange rate I could buy Silent Hunter 5 or many other games or 10 bears in price of this patch.

Dear Mr Battlefront... i have to complain a bit First of all sorry for my English. I'm playing CM since Barbarossa to Berlin. It was and it is one of my favourite games. I have just bought Normandy and to be honest it's very good successor. But now I feel deceived. I understand that 10$ patch theme was discused many times before and many are probably tired of this but I have to say something from me(you can ban me afterwards). It isn't fair and I'm surprised that so many people here are accepting this with contentment. Ok if you guys are ready to pay $ for a patch ok, your choice but don't try to convince people who don't like such policy that this is fair and normal. Don't say that this is some kind of "upgrade" that is changing core game. This is patch! Some BF guy said somewhere here that patches will remain free but the upgrades will cost $ Tell me what is a difference between such upgrade you are offering and patch? None! I have to pay for cover armor, movable waypoints and some minor tweaks and bug fixes, which i should have in a base game. I understand that this is difficult market and BF is small group but they are not the only one still i cant find any other publisher who wants money for their patches. Of course I don't have to buy it. That's true but I have only two options: buy this or stop playing this game within few weeks/months. Playing with AI has limited replayability and I can't play with players with 2.0 patch. Such thing would be fair if: this was a true upgrade that is genuinely changing this game and/or there was some possibility to play with 1.11 vs 2.0 in multiplayer game(of course without features from 2.0 version ) but it is impossible and you are giving such option - buy or, in fact, stop playing it. true CM is in multiplayer game not against the AI Probably I will buy this patch one and last time because i want in this game those goddamned cover armors and I want to play with someone at least for a while until 3.0 would be released. I'm really surprised that such majority of players are happy and accepting this without complain and even are writing here tons of Paeans to Battlefront and here you got not only games pared down to dozens of modules(which I probably can understand and that is not only Battlefront doing this) but also payable patches. You gave a precedens Sorry but i had to, now you can hang me
