I know a guy who brought in two of these and six T-62s recently. Just not good timing for me. I'd need to quit my job just to keep the bloody thing running Seanachai Good Lord, what are you going to admit to next?

Bulldozers are fine but do we get Caterpillars, JCBs and the big truck things with very large wheels? Dump and scoot command will be good, for the bulldozers, if not the latrines.

kipanderson Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Hi, was just about to post asking when we will be told what the new project is to be, then I saw this thread, anyway... here is what I was about to post "When are we likely to know what CM3 is to be? Hi, The last I heard from BFC, some months ago from Steve in fact, was that they had not yet made their minds up as to what their next project was to be. Steve did give quite a long list of the sort of features the new engine will have, and all very impressive it is too. To give an example, not just individual spotting by units, but also a radio network coded in, so units spot individually, and then can spread the word by radio, all very cunning. Add the above to a tweaked version of Extreme Fog of War and no more Borg spotting. Anyway…. The next big moment for CM fans is when BFC let us know what they have decided to go for as their first subject for the new engine. My question is, when are we likely to be told the exciting news? Some time soon, or not for many months? The guys at BFC will have been considering a lot of possibilities; I know they have been doing some early testing of some coding and possible features. Are they close to having made their minds up, and letting us know the news? Just a friendly question, I am really far too old for this sort of thing , but I find CM games just as exciting as I did wargames when I was half my age! It’s sad, but I not matured at all in last twenty years ! All the best, Kip. PS. Before someone posts to say it is slotted to be the Med, Steve said they were having a rethink, may still be the Med, but they were considering all options, of which the Med was one. PPS. The good news is that once the new engine is up and running, Steve reported it was hoped there would be a far faster follow through of new games, someone at BFC suggested it may be down to every six months. We can but dream ." With luck this will provoke a answer from Steve. I quoted him a lot above! All good fun, all the best, Kip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
