StarFleet Captain Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 From pics I've seen of CMBO bridges I assume there was only basically one type of bridge model, ie a basic rectangular 3D model with transparency sections. Will CMBB have suspension bridges 'n such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Exactly how many suspension bridges were there in the Soviet Union in 1941? I dont know offhand, but I would suspect the number could be counted on one hand. WWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMplayer Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Railroad bridges would be very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Umm...there were one or two battles fought in East Prussia and Germany as well in 1945 that would call for bridges... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtweasle Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 more brdige types though would be nice. Railroad bridges, and different civilian and military bridges. Any one have an answer about the general question of bridge types? Also an improved model of overpass bridge. So you cannot "hop" up to the top.

WWB Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Screw the bridges. Give me roads in brush, roads with walls, streams, gullies and high walls first. WWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again aren't all graphics in the CM engine abstracted? Also, now that I've got the idea, what about trenches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tondu Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Yes railroad bridges would be great. On top of that, I think that a couple of different destroyed bridges would add a lot to the game's ambiance. That and being able to see one be blown while it was loaded with your opponent's troops/ tanks. Now that would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soddball Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 No railroad bridges for CM:BB. I asked the question a few weeks ago and the Mad Bald One answered my question, if not my prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulletproofest Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Battlefield 1942 is a good game. Big enviroments, ability to be different classes of infantry, or be vehicles in tthe air land or sea. Check it out at www.BF1942match.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big enviroments, ability to be different classes of infantry, or be vehicles in tthe air land or sea. Check it out at www.BF1942match.com.Sorry "bulletproofest," but I don't think you are going to find any converts here for something that is not CMBO nor CMBB. On top of that, the realism for the upcoming title is in serious question. Much like a Steven Ambrose novel, umm, I mean historical fiction (no, that's not correct either...). The crowd that you are going to find here are grogs and wargamers. They are not interested in RTS, FPS, nor pseudo wargames like.... Well, you know- I won't give the other titles the "honor" of even being mentioned here. Remember you are in the Combat Mission forum. If you want to discuss another product, may I suggest you go to the "General Forum." (Sorry if I took the wind out of your sails Madmatt...).

bulletproofest Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Well sorry, I already own CMBO, and have pre ordered CMBB, so I love this game too, but no one has been answering my topic for a while so I got bored and asked about a game I was looking forward to. It's not like CM is the only game I play. God, lighten up. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All your great posts seems to have given you the red carpet before all the other 9000 customers before you. Whats Mom made for dinner tonite?
