PawBroon Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 Was just wondering. Releasing a boxed version of a Gold CMBO, with an addon CD for scenarios and MODs, will most certainly get BTS some added sales. After all, as Steve said, we Europeans are so many years behind... In a strict marketing and commercial sense, it would be sound logic to delay CMBB a little, to allow those sales to occur without having colliding products. Inquiring minds want to know, will we have to wait for CMBB while some Johnny Come Lately are discovering CMBO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Panzer Boxb Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 I'll buy both, as I am sure most other hard-core CM player will too. Just to have the trophy on the wall, right. Hey, I for one can wait. Can you.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 Good question there Paw! Thankfully the answer is... no, it won't delay anything at all. CMBB will be released as soon as it is ready, which is later than we expected simply because we've been adding too much stuff instead of wrapping it up Whatever is going on with CMBO in Europe is of no concern to us as far as CMBB is concerned.

Do ethnographers know about it? What does a "European" look and sound like? Is there one depicted on this "Euro" coin, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finland, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Austria are also covered As far as I know these places are all in Europe. But what the heck to I care?

Battlefront.com Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 Berli, I think that the western part of Russia is generally labled "European Asia"... so I think everybody is right! If so, pop open the Champaign because I don't think that has ever happened before! Oh wait... Goanna did forget about all the other countries I mentioned. Damn.

Wesreidau Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 Don't tell the Russians they are in Asia, they don't like it And I think the boxed version will go to a wider and more varried market than the freaks we see on this forum. They are unlikely to even know there is a CMBB till they see it in the games mags or on store shelves. Congrats to the mod makers/scenario folks who got onto the gold disk too!

Hey, Steve, what did you do in your geography lessons, played with toy tanks on the US map? As Berli said the border between Asia and Europe runs through Ural mountains, then Volga river, then Caucasus mountains (so Germans where literaly on the doorstep of Asia in Stalingrad). EDIT: Pardon, it's Ural river not Volga, so i was wrong about Stalingrad. [ 01-25-2002: Message edited by: ciks ]</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
