Storm99 Posted December 18, 1999 Share Posted December 18, 1999 CM is one great game I particularly like getting the right ground elevation to sight enemy targets and then, well you know the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Beman Posted December 18, 1999 Share Posted December 18, 1999 I think a better topic would be "who HASN'T ordered the game?" Then we find where these people live and beat them with a stick. DjB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BillWood Posted December 18, 1999 Share Posted December 18, 1999 I ordered, the day I tried the demo. Ordered two copies AMOF, one for me, the other for my good buddy Ciril Rozic in Split, Croatia. I also pre ordered PanzerElite. Wish I had not, this game is not very good, poorly exceuted, few of the promises kept as to what it was to be. Anyone want to buy my copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Davie Posted December 21, 1999 Share Posted December 21, 1999 Fionn; have you ever suffered spousal rage (no I'm not married) in a manner similar to this? 'Honey, I'll meet you after work to go Xmas shopping, but I have to go home to pick up a few things first' 'Ok dear, see you at the mall at 6pm'. So, I go home, one thing leads to another, and at 10 pm I receive a frantic phone call asking if I was ok. Well, I kinda lost track of time, and ended up playing a computer wargame, and was in the proverbial dog's house for quite a while. Ah, the joys of addiction Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest John Maragoudakis Posted December 21, 1999 Share Posted December 21, 1999 Thomas, if you told her it was Combat Mission, she would have surely understood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted December 22, 1999 Share Posted December 22, 1999 ah John, THAT might seem like a sensible thing to do but in this case telling a lie is clearly ok. My experience is that "enraged spouse syndrome" extends to destroying/banishing whatever caused you to miss the appointment. In this case I'd say something like. "Oh damn honey, I was playing Battle of Britain... Made me forget about you.. I promise never to play it again." She's mollified and you lose NOTHING. I would have said I was playing CC3 but then she would have known I was lying ------------------ ___________ Fionn Kelly Manager of Historical Research, The Gamers Net - Gaming for Gamers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mike Posted December 22, 1999 Share Posted December 22, 1999 Not me :-( we've just signed up for a mortgage that is a little bit more than we can afford, and the meagre value of the NZ$ makes $100 for the game too pricey at the moment! But I'm sure it's only a temporary problem - if nothing else then next year's "at risk" salary component is already assigned to this task!!

Guest GriffinCheng Posted December 23, 1999 Share Posted December 23, 1999 Humm, I am not sure. I think I made the order as early as September well before beta demo...but it has been too long...can somebody in BTS would like to take the trouble and confirm it? It will be fine if I have to order it *again*! [VBG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Tom Posted December 23, 1999 Share Posted December 23, 1999 Well, going on this spousal wife game hating topic, I recently told my Mother my present for my Father much to her dismay is the game Age of Kings. He has been addicted to computer games ever since Civilization. He is currently on Age of Empires, and is leaning towards Age of Kings. However, my Mom refuses to allow him to buy it (as he gets home from school, yes he is a Pricipal not a student, and immediately goes to playing his game). So, he as been giving me subtle hints that he wants me to get this game for him for Christmas. One was "So, what kind of computer games that I would be interested in are out there?" and catching him at Computer stores looking at the box with sad puppydog eyes. Basically, women feel that if their husband/boyfriend spends more time infront of the computer, or neglects her because of the computer that he doesn't love her. Just like, "if you loved me, then you would go down town with me and help me go shoe shopping with my mother". Women tend to hate certain games that their spouses love, as, it is someting in their life that they can't relate with. Indeed, I have seen girlfriends get really angry when they come over and see a certain game on the screen. It is a really interesting psychological event to watch. Actually, there was one girl who decided that you could either fight them, or join them, and she started playing these computer games with us and really enjoyed it. I should have lached on to that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SySShockeD Posted December 23, 1999 Share Posted December 23, 1999 Ordered it two weeks ago and was told that the international mail order would take *at least* 6 weeks. So every time I check the site and the game doesn't have an official release date, I'm pretty happy because I don't have to read all the mail about how wonderful it is while I haven't got my copy yet. But for all you guys out there I hope it's coming soon. SySShockeD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
