  1. Ok have swapped over now, thank you again and keep up the great song writing
  2. Yeah I use steam for most of my games anyways so will prob port across now. Auto updates are very useful EDIT: Does anybody know if the two versions use the same documents folder for saved games? I am not that far into my current campaign so probably not too big a deal if the versions conflict. Infact I may just start completely afresh, why not
  3. Going forward, will i better to install steam and remove standalone or stick with standalone. In terms of which version will get the updates first. I assume once the code change is done they will both be updated at the same time regardless?
  4. I see I see, ok makes sense now that you put it like that. No worries thanks for your help
  5. I am fairly new here but this seems a bit of a bum statement. Shouldn't we be expecting the developers to be working to update their original scenarios to keep in line with fixes ad improvements as they are made? Seems like a strange thing to admit things needed fixed/improved and then declare that the base game will not have those improvements incorporated. Or am I missing something? thanks
  6. Just took my serial from Battlefront website and registered it on matrix "My page" and it gave me my steam key
  7. Has anybody got a link to the interview mentioned in OP? Any news on when the next patch is due?
  8. What i was hoping to find was the maps from the NTC campaign available as QB maps. Is this a thing?
  9. ah wait a sec...I see now it changes the textures of the map etc. when you load into the mission
  10. Went to set up a quick battle there and selected NTC as the region but maps list is just the standard Germany region maps? Can you not use NTC for QBs then?
  11. I got ARMA 3 a few years back having not bothered with ARMA 2. I was pleasantly surprised to find that much of the unit behavior script lines etc were still identical to the original flashpoint game I had played some years before as a kid. Though iirc they now have an even easier system for that stuff where you just click a button. Back in the day you had to script EVERY waypoint, EVERY action, EVERYTHING lol. Today's ARMA crowd don't know the half of it lol I don't play Arma anymore though just due to hard drive limitations, I am a big DCS World fan so that takes up nearly 250GB iirc
  12. Yeah I understand your points, I also appreciate your understanding of my reasoning and not just biting my head off lol You gotta tread careful on the internet these days everybody can get trigger happy!! I know the die hards and long term supporters will have been over it and I guess over the years shelling out for a new game is more affordable, as I have done with other series and flight sims for example, than just piling into them all in one go. So clear this up for me too please, if they upgrade the engine you have to pay for the upgrade on every game you own if you want to run that upgraded engine on your game yeah? So, would it not make more sense if you are gonna charge so much for each game that when the engine upgrades come along you only charge one fee per account for upgrading? Or is this another can of worms? Are we paying for the engine or the game? I guess to strangers the pricing structure is just a little excessive in appearance. I suppose the confusion probably stems from other developers not ever upgrading the engine of one game in particular so the situation never really arises in the general gaming industry. Don't get me wrong I am not belittling BF's efforts or quality in saying this I am just trying to understand the why of it all. I suppose in a way I kind of do understand anyways and at this point I am now in full blown ramble mode but yeah...money's tight I guess and BF has so many games!
  13. Without wanting to rattle the hornet's nest, I guess I am just struggling to justify the full price of another module when i already have CMCW. Like, If you have invested in the game engine (i.e. bought one game already), it would make sense to offer a fixed discount off of future game/module (or in my perspective DLC) purchases. Don't get me wrong, every module has a ton of work invested in the units, maps, database etc. but it just doesn't add up that pay for example £60 for the entry fee and then a further £60 for every ride in the park. I know this is probably said ALL THE TIME by noobs to the series but I mean... I played the original when it came out wayyy back so yer not fooling me with your fancy new tech TL;DR I would happily pay £35-£40 for additional modules/titles once I have shelled out for a "base" game but that's just my opinion
  14. As per title, and if anybody could speculate when the next may be based on previous years? I am new to the series with CMCW but fancy maybe one of the WW2 and a toss up between SF and BS. It's not that I am miserly with my money but I am fairly miserly with my money
  15. In the current release version of CMCW, during the NTR campaign mission 2, I am getting the counterattack in red pass scenario for both decisions (delay/counter attack) It doesn't matter which I choose I never receive the delay mission. Is this known and replicable?
  16. Yeah I just discovered I could do that. Seems unusual to not allow infantry only when the title is designed around "what if" scenarios though
  17. Hello, Welcome to my !first ever! battlefront community post. Question: Why is there no option for Infantry only for the soviets in the Quick Battle setup? I wanna play some infantry only tactics but...
