MikeyD Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Something interesting to peruse. The CMSF2 home page is up with lots and lots of screenshots! You click on each module or basegame to get the appropriate screenshots of each. Now to pick the appropriate emoji 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Yup, the times they are a changing More screenshots will be added in the coming weeks. But more importantly, we've started work on the Demo! That will be available to you ahead of the full release by quite a bit. Four scenarios giving a feel for the Base and some of the Module content.

The Steppenwulf Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I absolutely love the in-depth explanation provided about the game engine and game mechanics. It's under features in the menu if you haven't already read it. I'm really sure this will go a long way to helping promote the quality of the product and boost sales. I get excited just reading it! Great stuff Battlefront!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hister Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 There are some typos in the text that I spotted when I was reading about the game and its modules on my phone but skimming over it now that I am on my comp I can't spot them, eh. Will the whole game bundle with all the modules still be discounted after the pre-order time is over? Also will the game launch with fixed unit behaviour that is plaguing current games? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Some very nice screens, the vehicles, equipment and soldiers are all top notch looking. Very cool. BTW I noticed someone left the anti aliasing off...again. LOL. It's like a tradition. Glad to hear there's gonna be a demo. I was blind sided by the "no later than the end of September" announcement. So, four missions to screw around with until then will be great and help ease the pain! Mord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lille Fiskerby Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I did open the CMSF editor and could not find it, nor in the manual, its a recon/engineer tracked vehicle and would be very cool to have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battlefront.com Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I'm happy that we're getting near the end. The nature of development this time around was the inverse of what we're used to; rapid process at the beginning (because so much was done already) and months for doing the final stuff (because the amount of fiddly things to do is huge!). Typos will be fixed later on today. There's only so m any times one can look at something and still find mistakes! Unfortunately for me, my HTML editor's spell checker isn't so hot.

The Download Only option mistakenly had a weight assigned to it, which triggered the shipping logic (as it should). If anybody else here preordered a Download option and got socked shipping, please file a ticket with the Help Desk and I'll refund the shipping cost.

Mord Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Don't know if you saw the other message but two of the SF Brit screenshot galleries aren't working. Mord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted August 8, 2018 Author Share Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) The two non-working Brit galleries are still W.I.P., I believe. Not enough screenshots got submitted so they're waiting on more... I think. Pioneer Weisel had a model done for CMSF1 years ago but it never found its way into the TO&E. If its on the CMSF2 vehicle list that's a clerical error. Edited August 8, 2018 by MikeyD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted August 8, 2018 Author Share Posted August 8, 2018 I think it was done before. I recall preorder purchasers got a notification before the release was announced, giving them the chance to download before the release frenzy (and clogged servers) stared 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
