PeterX Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 ...due to the scrutiny of industrious, nitpicking, sleep-deprived grogs (and we know who you are!). The demo will be deconstructed to the nth degree uncovering- inevitably- certain problems/anomalies/inconsistencies/glithces, however teensy-weensy, forcing BFC into a frantic late-hour tweaking mode. And Battlefront is a conscientious, consumer oriented company. So you can expect the game in your mailboxes in late-October. Sorry, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitzkrieg Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 Gunny Bunny? Is that you? He was bragging up how he "broke through the perimetre" (his spelling) on alt.games.combat-mission today. Be on the lookout for a fuzzy bunny troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterX Posted August 28, 2002 Author Share Posted August 28, 2002 Oops. Misfired attempt at humor. If truth be told, I'm impressed by the resident experts on thsi forum. They've made CM what it is. Never mind! (Wipes sweat from brow) Its amazing how your first post can do so much damage to your reputation here . . . and even risk your life at this point! Actually, this is about post #125. But the 1st in many months. But now I'm afraid to reveal my old user name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much easier to alter the briefing to mention a "scratch Soviet Regiment using Lend Lease equipment" and not change anything at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of advice, CMBB being delayed is not a laughing matter right now to all of us who have been waiting YEARS for this game to come out!!!

BeauCoupDinkyDau Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 The forum staff don't like jokes like this. You're likely to get a foot chewed off for that subject header. I can hear Matt's keys clanging in the distance. HI MOM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leakyD Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 Petes- You's best be tip-toeing 'round these parts with that "D" word. These sum pretty sensitive folks. Trigger happy, at best! Heck, my neck's still all kinds of chaffed from that last thread... For the record, there's three (maybe four) of us in the "D" camp, 9000+ in the other...food for thought....
