Thomm Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 That "Hide under Tank" order certainly helps keeping your infantry alive during artillery barrages! And I really did not expect reflecting water in the beta demo! This Charles guy must really have too much time! And with the new AI it is really time to stop playing humans again! The last time as was beaten up like this by a computer was in Chess! Looking forward to the Gold Demo! P.S.: All those individual soldiers can really be confusing sometimes!

I always get the creepy feeling they're watching me when I'm plotting a human wave attack for the Russians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manx_CM Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 The cold is playing havoc with my armour, my men have got trenchfoot and to top it all off, i can hear the sound of "Stalin's Organ" playing in the background. It'll all be over soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GonzoAttacker Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Can you believe the art work of the docks behind Stalingrad in the beta scenario "Remember Stalingrad". The new trench works are amazing in the scenario editor and I hope Charles finishes the sewerworks for the editor in time too. Did you see the Arty Splash near the barges in the Volga, fountains of water! BTS i only hope CM2 can improve on the Beta like CM1 Beta was improved on!

Mannheim Tanker Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 The demo is great, but I think BTS could do something about the love scene with the female Russian Partisan. Can't wait for the mods to come out for that one, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Gustav Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 I'm especially impressed with the tacAI. Halfway through Clash at Kiev, my Pz III was going up against a KV 2, with only a frontal shot. The pz III skipped an HE shell off the ground so it detonated over the KV, killing the commander. Excellent job, BTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomm Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 I am also impressed with the new voice cues, but the next time my batallion commander is going to make a snide remark about my orders, I swear I will send him right into the next minefield!!! Thank God you can escape the litany by staying on view level 4, although the star-shells can be really irritating at this view setting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgdpzr Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Man, you guys still playing the demo? Just wait 'til you get the whole game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Hell that ain't nothin'! I just smoked a IS-2 in the front with a PzIIIN. But you guys ain't artillery until those Katyushov's or whatever they're called send in their rocket barrage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ckoharik Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 While I must say the demo is entertaining the game has a *long* way to go before hitting gold status. I mean, come on, those dust "puffs" from the machine gun area fire are just plain lame. Reminds me of those graphically subpar "fast and compatible" smoke clouds in CMBO. And don't even get me started on that T&L effects on the tanks. Puh-lease! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Keth Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Started to play a quick battle, but the commissars tried several of my HQ units as Tzarists and had them summarily executed prior to the game. Anyone know how to prevent this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Commissar Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 I especially enjoyed the time I spotted a German company in an open field (hiding amongst the individualy rendered blades of grass and stones), so I naturally sent it my horse cavalry to sabre them to death. Man, I love the multiple death animations. My favorite is the one when the cossack pulls the sabre, lops of the German's head, and big blood-covered letters reading "FATALITY" pop up on the screen!

Aloid Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Maybe this should go in the tech forum, but any of you guys had problems running the demo at 10240 X 7800 on a Geforce 7? I'm having problems seeing the individual pubic hairs on the female partisans. I get their facial hair just fine, but cannot rotate the camera to look up the skirt correctly.
