markl Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 A PBEM is not a huge concern. Single player should be the main focus. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 A, most likely, based on the demo or solid pre-release info (a'la the Alpha AAR between Moon and Fionn) CMx2:II? That would depend a lot on CMx2:I, natch. When Tiller started releasing his PzC games I thought 'wow - gotta keep getting these', and I did, for a while. But I stopped getting them after three (they're up to 12 now I think), despite some of the later releases being of campaigns that I'm very interested in. The AI sux0rz, and I haven't really found a 'community' to buy in to. Also, the whole thing started to feel like a cash cow that was being milked bone dry. I fear that if CMx2 does lose async play (i.e., PBEM, or whatever BFC come up with and decide to call it) then the community will change significantly, and become something I'm not interested in. Also, several comments by BFC about CMx2 have had a distinct 'cash-cow' ring to them, in my ears. If/when either happens, I'll most likely stop buying the games - BFC aren't a charity, and neither am I. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 I'd seek out Gunny Bunny and borrow his copy first, and then decide to either buy it or not. <font size="1">Kidding, I'm only kidding...</font> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 B Unless it had extremely immersive graphics, ultra-high moddability and an engaging AI and workable campaign type system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Pollock Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 B ...unless the AI is damned impressive. No time for on-line play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveT Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 A of course. But I do hope for PBEM. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David I Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 A Aw ****, I can afford it, and if I don't like it I can always crunch up the disk and mail it back to them. I can still play my overseas friends in CMAK & CMBB. DavidI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomm Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 A, Never finished my one-and-only PBEM. A pity, because I had a *nasty* surprise for my foe!!! I think I will buy it no matter what. I just hope it will not be a too extreme time-sink! Best regards, Thomm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
