Prinz Eugen Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 Situation : The demo of the game that all of us have been waiting for three(ish) years has arrived. Three LONG years in the making, and now we have the demo, and the final release for some (lucky) bastards is Sep 20th. Hurrah, eh ? Not. I cannot understand all this whining and bitching about the demo. Citadel and Yelnia are both perfectly good scenarios in a way. In Yelnia it's cool to see how different it really is to fight usin infantry, and on the other hand how terrible the mg's are. In one fight my 3 mg's got 60 kills all in all ! :eek: Also the Citadel has proved to be great fun in tcp ; I was the Soviets and my mate had no idea where the next atg/atr/tank-hunter would spring from ! Huge map, and great fun ! Even if I should be the only one of the 10 000 members in BF.c , I still claim that the demo was superb, and I'll very much be expecting the final release. After that, I could possibly sell my cmbo away ; at that stage I have no use for it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhdeerslayer Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 I think the intent of these demo scenario's was to give you a flavor of the "new" war we'll all face in CMBB. In that, they acomplished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavlov Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 Well, here's my Member #9222 opinion for what its worth. I think most people out there (myself included) have found the demo to be good. The most noted criticism is that the demo senarios are simply not as "replayable" as CMBO's. In any case, everybody's a critic and when you have so many people waiting so long for something with baited anticipation, they are bound to find flaws when presented with the real deal. I think there is nothing you can do to stop it. No matter though. I'd bet a good portion of the critics are still planning on shelling out the dough for the full version.

That's the point. People are confusing constructive criticism with "whining" for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howardb Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Let them whine who cares really? Some people are born pessimists and will whine at everything, if the world was perfect they would find something wrong in that too. With that said I wish that... heheh.. just kidding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARRPEEGEE Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 I think some people overlooked something very obvious, and were operating on one major perceptive fault; They were compaing the experience with the gold CMBO demo. Now, when we got the BO demo, it was brand new..No one could have been playing CM for more than 4 months or so, with the Beta demo. Now, when BB has rolled around, we've been playing CM for about two years. It's not going to have the same 'effect' if that's what you're looking for (and why in the heck would you?)So, it gets blamed on the scenarios, etc.. I've been thrilled with it..It's fixed all the things that I didn't like about CMBO, and added tons more. It's a pleasure to play.

wade Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 I dont think the demo is that bad. I played the tutorial senario atleast 10 times in the last 2 hours. 9 times as the russians. Won it 6 times with morale above 91%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
