This happens is a lot of games. The reason you game is not saving what you ticked is read/write permission problem. When you save an option you are writing to a program that doesn't allow anyone or anything but admin to write to it. (Windows UAC/DEP) If you right click on the exe try to run as admin should solve it. UAC was first introduced in windows vista.

Is it running sluggish for you?

Disappointing. I though this was a tactical question.

On the contrary many were fitted with a bazooka to deal with tanks with the mount just behind the driver, and the ammo to go with it apparently even if you miss your first shot. All in the Protection to boot from small arms to go along with it.

Well I discussed this in the past but forgot the post. I think the bazooka should be available for acquire to the crew, on these tank hunting M20 utility cars. And the ability for the crew to engage opfor tanks from the inside would be neat. Also other vehicles like half tracks and some tank destroyers should have or m1 carbine racks in them that the crew with .45s or anyone could aquire

NOPE this way already works good chasing it, you do what you want.

There was more close combat than documented, the stories just never made it out. A lot of that was in the constant house to house fighting and clearing.

Agreed movies are the lazy way to history and facts, I think books are best. The older the better.

no luck, It's hitting the exposed crew already

They wouldn't have made knifes, bayonets and slapjacks if close combat never occurred. It's easier to say the animations can't be made rather than say it never happened in war.

don't think the guys see me, been chasing this AA tank for a while.

hand cranking isn't that big of a deal since the tank can just turn at the target anyways. Or driver turns turret at enemy via tracks

Not everyone saves games my man

I noticed garands are terrible inaccurate in game might be that. I can tell you on several occasions of enemy tankers running off unscathed from a full rifle squad shooting at them at less than 100m

I see it a lot here

Cool ideas. I want to expand if I may on this topic. At this point since they fixed quick battles I am going be buying more stuff from them the game is pretty damn awesome as it is now. what do you guys think of distant gun shots like a real weapon would sound at 1 yard then 20 yard then 50 yards then 500 then what would it sound at 1000? Each sound would be different but the same weapon would be used making the sound. You could even do it with explosions. Take for instance an mg-42 it's going to sound different close up than far away from it's location.

I think .50s are mounted on back of sherman is for crew or regular infantry to use on march wolverines road march with their turrets facing backwards so .50 can be in front

Keeping in tradition with combat mission 1 games I think close combat should be modeled bayonets, fists, knives. If it's too much work model wise maybe just a kick or punch when close to the enemy like they did in CM 1 would be nice.

Now that quick battles are fixed I am looking for any tiny, small, medium quick battle maps. I have all the ones at the BF repository if someone has made any for 4.0 out of those 3 sizes, let me know or post. Please no city or huge urban maps. Thanks. They can be any of the : Assault Attack Probe Meeting Engagement

The HT gunner is the one who I constantly lose. If I order him to open up I can never get him to pop back down he just shoots and shoots until he is taken out.

He was watching for enemy armor at the rear and flanks, he usually does that. M9A1 rifle grenade guy.

ai automatically formed line at top of ridge

I have noticed when a command team is in it with other troops you don't even need an open up command they do it automatically. I think commanders nearby may have something to do with it.

some coward deleted it on the host site but here it is

Well this would be my suggestion to you. option -On Full visible -Off -Shell trails (tracer) no smoke -Thin trails (tracer but not as thick as 4.0 current ones) -Only smoke
