t34577685 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 will this game have spring summer autumn winter like CMFI? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Well, almost. Its missing January and February and doesn't include snow terrain or weather. But it does have dry winter terrain and foliage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if the uniform of the soldiers will change according to the season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will winter be added with one of the modules, as is the case with Fire and Rubble? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I wouldn't be surprised if they do a lot of modules and special packs for this. This is their first game in which there is no tight (several months or so) time frame. BFC even states outright that this game is a sandbox, which seems to me to be a major departure for them. In keeping with that, it would seem natural to release more forces AND more seasons. This game is going to take off like crazy, judging by the response these last few days, so I think we can look forward to a smorgasbord of goodness following in its wake! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money is in the bank waiting for m. In theory they could make the sandbox go back till 1946 and forward till 2018. Quite some of the gear and TO&E is already there I'd say. Plus I guess it makes sense to do the sandbox thing in one CMx2 title, while keeping the other titles more in scope of their backstories. Good times! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amedeo Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 So, what is, exactly, the game's timeframe? Or, to say it better, what are the selectable dates in the editor? June 1979 - December 1982? (excluding January and February?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I think you are right, Amedeo. Jan/Feb of '80, '81, and '82 will be missing, but all other months are in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good business-like thinking, a module with new nationalities and snow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amedeo Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 BTW I guessed the starting date could be June '79 (and not, say, March) because, IIRC, by April 1979 all M551 light tanks were phased put in USAREUR cavalry units, and this tank model is not in the game TOE. Of course, I too hope that future modules will extend the timeframe and add new armies (US and Sovier airborne, Bundeswehr and Nationale Volksarmee, British and Canadian Army... you name it). And I guess that, if the base game sells well, new modules will come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
