    Jumpete got a reaction from Commanderski in CMRT Vehicle Pack?   
    100% agree. I would like to have a vehicle pack for RT. There are a lot of vehicles and tanks that can be added to the game. By soviet side we could get  KV1-S, KV85 and maybe some earliest KV models still in service ( same with first T-34 versions survivors and deployed with second line units).
    By german side I'm thinking on subversions such as  Jagdpanther G2, Jagdtiger Porsche, Tiger II Porsche (used at least one or two in Balaton offensive) More captured material (as Sherman) and very early german models reconverted . And please, ... A TRUE ... PzIVJ Late.

    First and mainly: LVT Buffalo for Rhine crossing.
    Then, late war CW stuff and forces, Pershing and some very late war german toys (for example Jadgtiger Porsche).
    P.D. Has BF announced anything on this matter (FB module)?

    Thanks for the correction and my apologies for the wrong. There are some germanic  words which for me are impossible  to write correctly, one of them is this and another one the name of the mortar carried on the  WW2 german tanks turret.
     
    Thanks you for considering the suggestions Steve. You and your team did a great work with F&R, congratulations.

    M43 and M44 mix is in. I'm away from my FR churner at the moment, but here's some other bits about uniforms-
    There was a lot of research throughout this, and models were added for the gaps in RT that we had, as well as for the near 100-Years War level of uniform chaos that is 1945. Here are a few of the additions (there may be more, so I'll leave those for discovery).
    There is an M43 cap in, used by the Volkssturm "Military" Appearance. That covers RAD troops, and just about anything auxiliary that saw combat that would have been in some form of uniform. I believe those also have helmets mixed in.
    The other two Appearance options for the Volkssturm are "Standard" and "Greatcoat". Standard is the civilian-type kit, Greatcoat is civilan-type hats and...a greatcoat.
    We have tried to add more targeted visual variety, as there are a lot of different, odd formations active in this time period, each with their own characteristics that I tend to prefer to have some visual representation of. Better than looking at icons to know what the enemy may be, or the UI if it is on-screen.
    I believe random helmets and ushanka mixes are also making it in for winter conditions (headgear is a headache!). Getting the Soviets some additional visual improvements was a goal. There will also be the slung greatcoat (skatka, bedroll) model, which has shown up in the images previously.
    Gebirgsjägers are a bit different. Those uniforms I did (using Mike's base) were a last minute add for CMFB, I believe. Steve had to do some magic to get the uniforms to show, so changing the headgear is another layer of complexity beyond the others. Better than not having the uniform at all, in my book. Possible in the future, but these seemingly small changes are prone to break lots of stuff.
    I have some other things that I'll release as ideas or mods that didn't make it, post-release. This module has the largest accumulation of cutting-room floor in memory, and is already packed. Even with the years of development, there wasn't enough time to test all concepts and scenarios that were deemed nearly there.

    I'm agree with Aragorn2002. Why CW has a release date and FR hasn't? Apparently CW is more ambitious project since it's a full new family and FR is only a new module based in a base game with seven years old and with the mostly of the incoming stuff tested extensivily in others Battlefront WW2 tittles.

    What I don't get is that for CMCW it's possible to give an exact release date, while for Fire and Rubble we don't even know whether the release is a matter of days, weeks or months. I've said enough about it in the past years and have been ridiculed, insulted and ignored for it. That's okay, since I often have been harsh and offensive. But I don't regret one word and still think Fire and Rubble will go into history as an example of how NOT to produce and promote a new product. 
    We're now in the pre-order phase, we have a release candidate, but still don't know whether we can expect that wonderful e-mail to start downloading our pre-order this evening or in a couple of months...🤨

    I'm not sure if Cold War will have future DLCs, it depends of the numbers of copies sale. I'd bet that numbers will be good, so probably we will see new addons at game. My two cents that a future DLC would be Bunderwehr vs. NVA. Another posibilities would be some NATO countries (UK, France, Canada, Holland, etc. ) vs Warsaw Pact countries (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, Hungary ...). Even, and thinking that the full game is moving in an hypothetical stage, participation of 'far countries' (for a Central Europe conflict background) such as Italy, Spain, Portugal, Yugoslavia, or a conflict expansion until Scandinavia. In any case all this sound interesting.

    If  the work was in an advanced development status around one week ago, how is it now? 97%? 98? Finished? Is the delay meaning that was included a bit more TOE?
    Thanks.

    Technically germans should have a mix of M-43 and M-44 uniforms. Long time ago I asked if germans will receive M-44 in F&R, and the answer was affirmative (I remember that MikeyD was who answered me). So the texture should be available for FB module.

    I think I may have asked this before, but: Will the G41 from FI be added as well? It is not in the TOE list, but then again, it isn't even in the R2V manual.

    Totally agree with you. An update of BN with the addition of Stug IV and Brümbar would be welcome.
    Every time I see the TO&E I have new doubts. I hope that Battlefront recovery the old habit to upload at forum the module manual days before the final release. So we can enjoy all the small details and clarify doubts.
    P.D. Will Red Thunder and the new module be launched on Steam along this year ?

    it would be great to see the Ausf J panzer IV, aslong as its modelled correctly, alot of titles just use a panzer IV, ausf G OR H. but there are clear big differences....
     
    would also love to see the brumbar and stug IV added to Normandy....lol

    I'm referring to the latest production (Jan'45-May'45) characterized by:
     - It has 3 return rollers (instead that the typical 4 of Pz IV).
     - The replaced of schurzen  by wire-mesh panels.
     - The addition of two flame-suppressing mufflers in the exhaust system, as you can observe on the JgPz IV/70(V) (late) of FB.

    Totally agree!. After several screenshots and test on the game (BFCElvis vs Ithikial_AU) I believe that exists enough info about the status of the development for sharing it with the community.
