CarlWAW Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Adding the module-name as prefix gives a MUCH better overview over scenarios and campaigns. No need to click through the list, to find one for a certain module. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 They already do that, only the base game doesn’t get a notation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In CMBN of example all BP scenarios start with BP1, Commonwealth with CW, Market Garden with MG. Again only the base game isn't. What does "It's never too late" mean in this context? Is it a suggestion to add BN in front of the base game scenarios or are you suggesting it to designers of new scenarios? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 I can't see the phrase "It's never too late" without hearing Diana and Marvin telling me to "stop look listen to your heart".... Ah, we were all so much younger then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFCElvis Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 @CarlWAW It never hurts to add that kind of notation to a scenario's title but remember, that will not always give you 100% of the answer. For instance, what if a player made battle was created and required the Commonwealth module, Market Garden module and the Vehicle Pack? Using a CW or MG prefix isn't enough to let the player know what is required by just looking at the battle title. We do it for releases because there is no mixing up what is needed. There is no Commonwealth content in Market Garden battles (the same with Marines, Brits and NATO in CMSF). And the Packs each require both modules so including the module designation would be redundant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Sometimes when I download a scenario or see a scenario I know I want to play H2H I add "H2H" to the scenario name to remember my intention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falaise Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 It took me 2 years to understand that the initials corresponded to modules !!!! I first thought that this corresponded to the initials of the scenario writers Looking carefully at the list of scenarios to see if it might be interesting to rename the scenarios, I noticed the green dot that corresponds to the modules. All is in place !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Canadian Cat Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Indeed. Plus what if I wanted to write it MG+CW+VP ScenarioName. Not to mention that's a lot of characters taken away from my descriptive name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once people experience how superior it is for scenario selection with scenarios sorted for size, then there's no going back. If Battlefront would do it, it quickly would become standard. But it's no big deal to do it for oneself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Battlefront would do it, it quickly would become standard. But it's no big deal to do it for oneself. No Battlefront won't be doing it. We programed in the green dots above the module icons on the splash screen to do it. And again, remember that no Battlefront scenarios require anything above what is stated in the product information screen. Market Garden requires the base game and Market Garden.....Period. So there would never be a CW+MG Battlefront produced scenario. The Battle PAck and Vehicle Pack require both modules, so pointing out CW+MG+VP is moot. You need all 3 for them. Ditto the Battle Pack. Stating it is redundant. And the green dots do the job just fin for player made scenarios. That is why it was programed into the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
