Sixxkiller Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Steve, I would like to add that a better title for a new topic would be, "CM:SF Now Taking Pre-Orders". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Originally posted by Dirtweasle: Why don't they have lasers on their backs? They're integrated in the later models. More damage resistant, more accurate at range but they suffer from heat build up. You need to shoot-n-scoot from multiple angles until you see the antenae start to curl, then move in. The carapace is "rounded" so you still need some luck but you've got a couple of minutes. ...starting to think the SLOD idea might actually work. But then the insomnia is biting tonight. I'd maim to know what the "one thing" is. PBEM? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMSF has 1:1 representation, but the lobsters are still abstracted at this point. New screenshots with the final version of the lobsters will be available "in a couple of weeks." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kipanderson Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Hi, Yup… for those of us of a paranoid nature it is a relief to hear that things move on as usual and soon the excitement of old will be back. The aim of having narrower titles with more in-depth modelling for the specific place and time followed by modules I am greatly in favour of. It will be fun with more regular launches of CM items even if some are modules. If this does lead to a new title every year or so, with a module every six months or so, the long wait for the first release of CMX2 will have been worth it . Greatly looking forward to CMSF, All the best, Kip. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongLeftFlank Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 In 3 years as full time "Mister Mom", my brother -- the lucky so-and-so -- has had leisure to finish the entire Morrowind and Dungeon Siege series, as well as advancing 2 characters over 70th level on Evercrack). I have completely failed to interest him in CM -- "too much thinking and weak graphics" -- he says. I in turn deride his preferred genre as "Hit It With A Stick (And Win A Bigger Stick)" His response was to name a character HIWAS AWABS in my honour.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undead reindeer cavalry Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 that one screenshot shows a type of Mercedes that Finnish troops use in "UN peacekeeping" missions. i take it that this is The Official Word from BFC that the initial release of CMSF will in fact include Finnish forces, including 1939 campaign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeknodathon Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Originally posted by Sergei: And T-28's! They must be h00t against Space Lobsters. I demand to know whether ALPs are going to be modelled (Anti-Lobster Pots)? Fix or do sumfink if not? Obviously, the dimensions will have to be changed for Space Lobsters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
