I think I overheard rumors of a new Cold War module, any truth to that? Or should I get my proverbial ears checked? I don't think it has been officially confirmed, but a NATO module is pretty certain. Personally I think it will be upon us quite soon, because there's a seperate team working on it and they've already shown they're fast. As always Steve is a bit of a tease when it comes to the news we're really waiting for, but we should let him have his fun.

Sgt.Squarehead Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 SPG-9 is already in the game for the Ukrainians, but not for the Russians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A simultaneous release of a new Battle Pack is also planned. The Pack focuses on Kampfgruppe Mühlenkamp's attempts to keep the Soviets from moving westward in July 1944. THIS is neat. I've got two great books from panzerwrecks about this said action....looking forward to this!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also the only module that makes sense, so I don't get the secrecy. The Brits and Germans are a must. The dutch for me personally too and one of the largest forces actually 'at the front'. The French, Danish, Belgians and Canadians are also candidates. Hopefully they will all be in. How many countries does the NATO module for CMSF contain?

Not really secrecy, more like it's not the right time to start talking about its details so I skipped over it in hopes of avoiding questions about the details. Well, that didn't work but you can't blame a guy for trying Unlike the majority of the stuff I listed for 2022, the Cold War Module doesn't have a specific release timeframe in mind. Later this year seems to be about right, but we won't know better until a few of the things on that list get checked off. I figure around mid 2022 we should have a pretty good idea when it will be released. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting for FR was agony because I'm an Ostfronter, for all other goodies I'm happy to wait. Just curious about which countries will be in the NATO module. But I understand it's still early days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artkin Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I think the benefits of extending the conflict to the winter months (Even to end it there) outweighs the negative impact on the storyline. Because we are definitely playing the game for the gameplay.. not the lore.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace11 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 US Marines for Black Sea? Aren’t there suitable NATO units that could have been included. So little variety already in the modern titles. And are we to believe an invasion fleet is sent into the Black Sea? Within land based air range, kilo subs operating in it. Urgh. Sounds ridiculous and the US centric aspect is getting a bit boring, could have done an entirely new army or something. Reasonable excited about most of the stuff listed but this made no sense other than it would be easier to make with the assets from other titles. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey_Fox Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 (edited) Black Sea badly needs scenarios on maps that are of the scale of Cold War. And Cold War badly needs quick battle maps that are of the size and quality you get into the campaigns. The QB maps are by far the biggest letdown of both titles.

I also very much would like to see a winter module, so we can make up our own storyline. The Winter mod for CMRT by Kohlenklau and Kevin is for me still the mother of all mods. And even compared to FR it still looks superb. Edited January 16, 2022 by Aragorn2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
