Knaust Posted July 30, 2002 Share Posted July 30, 2002 I'm reading from the CMBB Product News section the following: "European players will find the game in their local retail stores. Besides the original English version, CDV will offer fully localized French and German versions." Is it this true?...if YES, I would be very pleased to find that pretty box in my local retail store, which otherwise would be surely lost by the Post Office!

Ozzy Posted July 30, 2002 Share Posted July 30, 2002 Knaust long time ago since you last checked forums...eh? Yes, you will find CM:BB in European retail stores, but with some limitations. These have been discussed in epic depth in several threads. One of them is: http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=025721 Here you find answers to your questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DougieB Posted July 31, 2002 Share Posted July 31, 2002 Mike The CDV address is taken from their CMBO Handbook and until today I have had no reason to visit same. But I agree with you (no SS runes) but smut of the first order as a game!! What will they be offering kids next?? The full Monty!!! :mad: Douglas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DougieB Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 Feldgendarm Not a case of prudery. These type of game adverts attract the wrong type of people to the sites and what that can lead to. At the moment the authorities in the UK have an ongoing operation against these sorts and you would not believe the cross-section of people they have roped in. (Bankers, Lawyers and even teachers). So that is why I am against this sorty of Game advert. Final word. Douglas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The high court judged, that it is legal to say "Ruhm und Ehre der Waffen-SS" (fame and honour for the Waffen-SS). Yes, you read right, the courts in this Germany are defining what you are allowed to think about history. It's strange enough that we are not allowed to use thousand years old runes of our nation in our own country, but there is absolutely no legal reason, why the Waffen-SS ranks have to be fictious again. Even the Unteroffizier des Heeres "Uffz" was censored into "Unt" instead of "Ufz" (game limitation of 3 characters, right?). Censorsip is bad enough, but freely self-censoring more than necessary in this non-free-speech-state is a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Censorsip is bad enough, but freely self-censoring more than necessary in this non-free-speech-state is a shame.The original English version uses 'Unt' as well, it has nothing to do with censorship. A bit of history - Runes are not particularly German, they are Scandinavian/Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of history - Runes are not particularly German, they are Scandinavian/Celtic.[/QB]Nice to hear that: then i'm sure this "mistake" will be corrected in the german CM:BB version... Runes are nordic and celtic (where did i say they are germanic only?), but not prohibited for other nordic/germanic nations as part of their culture and identity.
