weta_nz Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) First off - Sorry to anyone who's come here thinking they have released it!! I just wanted to put my 2c on how much I'm looking forward to the Demo. I passed on CMSF the first time. It was so different to the WW2 CMx1 titles I was used to. Also, the new controls and the fact I didn't have any knowledge on the modern weapons meant it just got lost on me. But all the talk about 'spys', IEDs, VBIEDS, technicals makes me feel that I've missed out on some really unique features. I'm really interested to see how they 'play out' in a scenario and how much of a different challenge it is. I'm sure I'm not alone in this experience. So my one humble request would be to include some of the unique feature set of CMSF2 in the demo please.

Dr.Fusselpulli Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Yes, I think it is not just about these features, but about the very asymmetrical warfare. You have a very modern army clashing onto a unconventional force. This is very interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weta_nz Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 Agreed - I was missing the correct terminology 'asymmetrical warfare' and 'unconventional forces'. As a game - who wouldn't want to play as the underdog freedom fighters against the big bad USA/Nato invasion force and give them a bloody nose.....Just kidding guys!! I guess the experience might be a bit like picking the Italian army in CMFI where you definitely notice a difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homewrecker Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 YES! Looking forward to the MOUT operations, where the fighters and uncons can be a tough nut to crack. The things I loved about shock force was the uncons, and that the better equipped Syrian units could still make you feel some pain if you didn't cross your T's and dot your i's. Very much looking forward to the possibilities of the new release on the upgraded engine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Below are some screenshots (with mods) of the unique features from the old CMSF1. I can't wait to see the updated look for CMSF2. Four different size of IED and a combatant group. VBIED.

sburke Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Ha I would never confuse Converse, they were the footwear of choice when I was growing up wading into creeks. At how much they cost now my parents would have killed me for doing that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 We called the flat-top versions "fish heads" when I was around seven, back in 76. They went for five bucks a pair and only came in black or white. By the time I was 16 (in 85) all the punks and skaters drove the prices (at least for high-tops) through the roof. They were going for 30 bucks and you could find them in just about any color you could imagine. The 80s really made Converse.

sburke Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 A few years back I was in Seoul on business. My wife had come and her mother and sister from Japan hooked up with us. So here we are in the street scene in Seoul just me and my mother in law. Across the street is this high end converse store so to practice my pitiful little bit of Japanese we had a conversation about how when I was young those were the inexpensive brand that is now ridiculously over priced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When asked by my manager at work why I laughed so much, I told her "You need to act your shoe size instead of your age. You'll have a lot more fun!" It still applies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
