Vacillator Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 3 hours ago, Anthony P. said: Disney picks it up and continues with CM3, CM4 and CM5 all within four to five years. Let's not get into the argument of whether or not the Disney Star Wars films were any good, or the Lucas prequel trilogy for that matter. IMHO they both had their moments, some good ones, some bad. So Disney CM. Hmmm, how are they going to wedge a 'love interest' into a wargame ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Steppenwulf Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 (edited) Hmmm, let's see... it's gonna be something most of the community wouldn't guess, and... we don't really know if it's CM2 or CM3. So... CM2 - Got to have really strong commercial appeal, as this game iteration is dated and CM2 sales are no longer what they were (it must be true), I'll have a guess here at Desert Storm, as it would potentially pull in lots of new players and generate plenty of revenue. CM3 - got to be something ultra modern to increase the possibility of procuring those lucrative future military training contracts, right! Taiwan 2025/26 is the obvious theatre here (so maybe), but I'll go for something altogether more freaky, a hypothetical RF civil war set in the late 2020's.

Centurian52 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 4 hours ago, Vacillator said: Oh I see, is there any interest in that ? Yes, definitely. The North Korean kit would mostly be a repeat of CMCW or CMSF2. But the South Koreans have some really interesting kit that I really want to play around with (I'm a huge fan of the K2 Black Panther). It would definitely be another asymmetric warfare title, like CMSF2. But that's ok. CMSF is a lot of fun, and it would be asymmetric warfare with very different kit over very different ground. And it can always be upgraded to peer vs peer warfare by adding in Chinese forces later down the line (it's definitely plausible that the Chinese might intervene in a 2nd Korean War, or that the North Koreans would only feel confident in attacking if the US and China were already at war anyway). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which game has he turned to instead? Or is he maybe not modding any game but instead spending time to get more proficient in Blender (or is it proficient with Blender as that software also is a tool)?

He is playing VASL against another CM player (not me, I used to play ASL years ago but not sure I want to go back to that instead of CM). And he's doing a lot of work on what I jokingly refer to as 'Southfork' . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert DuBalay Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 What about allowing to jump through the tab bar from a leader calling for artillery support to another without having to close the artillery calling menu ? Nobody (or only 1 in the 1000) is expecting that and that will be a tremendous addition to CM2 - it also ticks the box that it needs entire re-programming . Can't wait for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The announcement is a couple months away, and always will be. But in all seriousness I suspect there is a fair to decent chance of the announcement coming sometime within the next month or so. Edit: I guess we'll see how much heavy lifting that "or so" ends up doing. Edited April 1 by Centurian52 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casual_Insanity Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 I meant to send this out yesterday, anyway my guess as to big announcement is that the next combat mission is going to be Combat Mission: Hello Kitty 40k.
