Desert Dave Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 As originally posted by Kelly's Heroes: 2) Will the unit bases be able to be toggled off? Shoot, this is so easy, even I can answer this one! :cool: Yes. All the way off, or part-way off - you'd see just a "halo-type" circle beneath, or those solidly rounded unit-bases. What a grand game! What a grand old time... just ahead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japinard Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Hubert. This is so very exciting! Yea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kossuth Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 The game really look good with all the new features. BUT i really hope the will have an option that gives you the oportunity to play it in Top-1D It really look like civ 2, and i totally loose the feeling of a wargame in this mode. I dont like it. I would very much like to old wargames counter mode (but i might get used to it) Beside of this it look very good. The other option with i cube is even worse. (but it gives a feeling from battle of britain though...) [ April 14, 2004, 02:29 AM: Message edited by: kossuth ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kossuth Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Release scheduled to Q4. Games are often delayed. How was it when SC was ready. Was it in time or not ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohan Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Hubert, This is good news for those of us who have not played the original in some time. I look forward to another quality product. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esquire Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 This brings me back to that long ago time in the Spring of '02. Those were heady day indeed. In a thread such as this we waited, day after day, week after week, month after month for the release of SC. There were setbacks, new release dates, more setbacks and exuberant anticipation which culminated in a consumer frenzy of epic proportions. Where has the time gone, not to mention the old guard; Bloody Bucket, Straha, Willgamer, John Difool, and Gen.Metaxas to name a few. Will we see days like that again?

Leopard Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 The different factors modelled, and ALL the levers and switches makes this really fantastic news. Shouldn't they warn us that we are going need a towel before posting news like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fubarno Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Yes, projected release in Q4, but will there be another demo/beta released that alows 1 year of a campaign to be played? If I remeber correctly, the demo/beta stage resulted in so much fabulous feedback that contributed greatly to the discussion and resulted in some excellent suggestions being implemented in the full release by Hubert/battlefront. Also, to satisfy the impatient (like myself), can beta testers do some of the great AAR's (with pictures)that scratched the itch for news on how the development of the game is proceeding? Initial screen shots look realy intriguing and the info released so far confirms that Battlefront is cutting edge strategy/wargame company. Looking forward.....

reiver Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 I tend to lurk and not make many posts but... I cannot wait to get my hands on this game!! I'd have preferred hexes that seems to be the subject of intense debate further down the forum but if Hubert's gone with tiles well he must have had a good reason. As I say cant wait!

ev Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 ...will tanks have special movement and combat qualities. I would like to see tanks advance or retreat after combat. ...and, maybe engage in multiple combats. Tanks should not be infantry on steroids. They should be different. Armored vehicles (not just tanks) made the battlefron more fluid, not just because they were stronger, but because they could keep moving. ...and, by the way, I also would like to see a Macintosh plataform.

Hexes to square - bad Counters to icons - bad Map view to angled isometric - bad I really was attracted to the look of SC and was considering buying it until I saw this SC2 thread. Alas, SC2 looks like a Civ III scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
