Jeff Heidman Posted January 10, 2001 Share Posted January 10, 2001 Congrats to BTS for getting 1.1 out the door. I assume this means that development on CM:BO is essentially complete? Will there be a 1.11? Can we upgrade mid-PBEM from 1.1b24 to 1.1? Jeff Heidman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grisha Posted January 10, 2001 Share Posted January 10, 2001 IIRC, BTS said that as soon as they had the TCP/IP issue done they would begin work on CM2 in earnest ------------------ Best regards, Greg Leon Guerrero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted January 10, 2001 Share Posted January 10, 2001 I sincerely hope that they take about three weeks off before they begin in earnest. Speaking from personal experience, taking a good break after working 6 or 7 days a week for 5 years or so will do wonders for productivity upon return . Take a break... please, for all our sakes. Cheeers, Walter R. Strapps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanco Posted January 10, 2001 Share Posted January 10, 2001 I second that Walter. The next update I get from BTS had better come from some sun-drenched Carribean island, where scantily clad native girls scurry to and fro, serving them cold alcoholic beverages and cooling them with large wicker fans. ------------------ DeanCo-- CM interface mods: http://mapage.cybercable.fr/deanco/ so many games...so little time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted January 10, 2001 Share Posted January 10, 2001 Hehe... thanks guys Yes, work on CMBO is basically done. We will keep an eye out for any serious bugs (not just "gee, I think this should be tweaked"), which we will fix, but other than that we are starting on CM2 very shortly. We are first going to figure out what exactly we are going to put into the thing, THEN we will actually start the coding and artwork. And yes... we have a list of about 10,000 ideas to sift through, so we have plenty of stuff to discuss already Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Heidman Posted January 10, 2001 Author Share Posted January 10, 2001 Combine work and play! Discuss it sitting on a beach somewhere warm. Then you can write off the vacation as some kind of work conference. Jeff Heidman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarmo Posted January 10, 2001 Share Posted January 10, 2001 Yeah, I take 5 weeks off every year, and I don't even work that hard. Reading the forum half of the time... Forgot to mention. Of course you'll have to work overtime when you come back to make up for the lost time.

Lee Posted January 11, 2001 Share Posted January 11, 2001 Boy, isn't that the truth. After 164k + posts, Steve and Charles must have a truly *enormous* list of ideas and suggestions for CM2! Not to mention stuff that would require so much work and/or more processing power that we'll have to wait to for CM3, CM4 or CMII to even seem them implemented. Great work Steve and Charles, you guys have truly created something that has gotten you into the PC gaming history books. No matter what happens from here on out, you fellows have created a truly classic wargame. Not to mention taking computer tactical wargaming to a whole new level of realism.

Grisha Posted January 11, 2001 Share Posted January 11, 2001 BTS! Scenario suggestion for CM2! How about one of those daring night actions from a Soviet forward detachment, like the one 26th Tank Corps sent during Stalingrad to secure a bridge across the Don by Kalach. ------------------ Best regards, Greg Leon Guerrero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
