    SovietOnion got a reaction from Monty's Mighty Moustache in So you just got your hands on CMCW...now what? Designers Q&A thread.   
    OK, I need to say this because clearly noone important in your life has. 
    Customer feedback is good, but so long as it is constructive feedback. Everything you have said, and the way you have said it, has been destructive. Being polite isn't about making friends with me or other members. It is about not being a jerk and raising the chance that your complaints get listened to. Ever heard of the critique sandwich? You say something good, something bad, something good. Far more likely to get taken seriously. When everything you say is negative, it is very easy to just tune it out. 
    Notice how your posts were promptly ignored by the staff/devs/beta testers? And they were still replying to people with honest, polite questions? 
    I am of the opinion you owe them an apology not only for derailing a thread, but spreading falsehoods about a DRM conspiracy. This simply isn't the case, as Kevin's solution shows.

    It isn't taken away if it isn't an advertised feature. No one is saying it is unreasonable, but I am personally saying that the way you are going about this isn't polite or likely to get you friends. Your subjective opinion of the maps themselves, and how long they 'last' is just that.

    Couldn’t have said it better myself. Clearly a troll. 
     
    On a positive note though, a lot of the other people in this thread have been very positive and had some good discussion.

    I proofed a bit. 
    I wasn't keen on the tone either.

    Spending money doesn't excuse you from being nasty. Be constructive, not destructive with your feedback. Instead of implying the target of your criticism is a child, perhaps act like an adult and mind your manners.

    Welcome back
    There is nothing in the game's commands to allow you to issue coordinated orders. You have to estimate who will be where when and add pauses to the way points to create some coordination. With experience you can get reasonably good.
     
    That is not possible in a QB. If you are playing someone trusted you can create a scenario to accomplish this but you have to refrain from not looking at the other guy's force. Way, way back a friend of mine and I did that:
     We included some instructions on how to set it up.

    A "follow" command is on the wish list, but as yet, a successful one hasn't been developed. Still on the list 🙂  When it was last worked on the testing community felt that it was not ready for prime time. It worked, sort of, but there were too many times, or special instances, where it didn't work.
    So, keep hope alive.

    Pretty sassy, eh? lol. 
    That source you provided is very misleading. "Bradley's killed more armored vehicles" is different than "Bradley killed more tanks" and the conversation was specifically about ATGMs, which would imply we were only considering the Bradley's TOW system.

    Ah, good question, couple ways actually.  First, chemical rounds do look different than smoke for LOS (they used to teach us that), smoke is greyer and heavier, chemical weapons tend to be lighter and whiter.  Second, the NBC alarms would start going off (we had those), and third, someone starts to do the funky chicken.  In reality if chemicals were expected, everyone would be in a stage of MOPP/TOPP before the battle even began.  From TOPP Medium, it takes about 10-15 seconds to move to TOPP HI, which could effect the battlefield but probably not enough to warrant the effort of modeling the whole thing.
