New Player Advice Please


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Whilst I have had the game for a bit now, I aint really had time to play it till now.

I have a few noob questions and hope someone would be kind enough to assist me.

1. What are the most popular mods for this game e.g. graphical, unit and QB maps with AI scripting?

2. Can someone suggest some good campaigns to download?

2. How do I find opponents for multiplayer e.g. is there a site to go to or do you just swap IP's?

I like the game but am still just playing on casual. Am I ruining the experience by playing on casual?

Thanks for any help or assistance. I will be browsing the threads but time is limited as I also just got shock force with the marines and British forces so have to do the same with that game.

There a LOT of mods out there, and people have different tastes.

However, ARIS has accomplished the impressive task of modding ALL the CMBN vehicles and guns, and terrain. So start there.

Also look at VEIN's mods to improve fire, smoke, muzzle blast effects etc.

While there are many more xnt mods available, downloading and installing mods by the two above will keep you busy for quite a while.

Before you do anything else, go to the Repository and download Devil's Descent. It's a great campaign.

Now that that's done, you can find PBEM opponents here. Just post on these boards saying you're looking for an opponent. I'd volunteer but am current tapped out of time for another game. Alternatively, you can challenge someone in the numerous Peng threads.

CM:BN isn't like CMx1. While mods are nice and some are very good they aren't exactly 'vital'. I recently had occassion to load a clean copy of the old CMBB title and I gasped at the original default art! I had completely forgot what the original looked like. That was a game that REALLY needed to be thoroughly modded.
