yapma Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Originally posted by Neepster: The thing I miss is the weapon database. Clicking on an identified enemy vehicle and having the weapon and armor info there at the press of the enter key... Does CMSF have this and I am just missing it? And of course kill stats at the end of the battle. I remember BF saying it was "ugly" and not of much use. I think a lot of people would say "I don't care if it's ugly" and "I disagree as to its lack of usefulness." I have the impression that BF believes it can appeal to a wider audience if it eliminates the groggier elements in the game, or at least hides them from view. Seems unrealistic to me, but what do I know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I wonder how many folks a) play the game and would be averse to having this data available? SP:MBT might be a bit more mainstream than CM:SF (if only because it's free) and still provides plenty of semi-groggy info. I find that I ignore the data myself, but I would enjoy knowing that it was there in CM:SF. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1A1TC Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I wish there was SP:MBT 2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Well, there was winSPMBT! Oh, man, was that a magical day. Honestly, I tried WEGO in CM:SF last night and found that it felt less... enabling than WEGO in CMBO. Perhaps that's because the firepower scales are so different -- one minute in modern combat sees far more potential death and destruction at practically every level than a minute of WWII combat. So... I kind of miss the "oooh... what's going to happen?" of WEGO from the earlier CM's. In RT the control is so fine-grained that there's much less suspense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lethaface Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Am i crazy or do all trees dissapear in CM:SF if I press Alt-T??? There seems to be some nice zoom/enlarge options too, as well as a wide view setting - if anyone hadn't noticed - 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 There is little that I miss, but I would say that Hull down command, and the gigantic variety of scenarios. I also miss being better at it. My performance at CMSF has been way worse than earlier games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I do much better. I think that's because modern combat for me amounts to "find good positions, hose enemy, rinse, repeat". As long as you get to the good positions first, and cover your approaches, you'll probably do fine. Note: I play almost entirely infantry-only battles. I do a lot more maneuvering in WWII games, which I'm really bad at. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alt-T actually inserts a virus into your operating system that causes it to automatically order all the games in the BFC catalogue. Actually I just noticed the Alt-T myself, so no you aren't crazy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritter_85 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 In fact vincere there are these graphics options :=) and I think Taki means those order you could give in earlier combat missions... "Retreat" order ...so that unit could move away quickly from positions but there was this risk that unit gets panic .... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincere Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 In fact vincere there are these graphics options :=) Some; but alt doesn't work the same in leaving a trace of the tree terrain. Couldn't find enlarge units? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1A1TC Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I think what I miss the most is the right click order menu, adjustable waypoints and show all paths/target lines option. PS. I also miss having an option to order what weapon to use (main gun/MG, Javelin/M-4) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Chapuis Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 obviously my point is that you cant choose any units. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argie Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I miss Mac support... I got stuck not being able to play older CMs in my G5, nor the new CM... Well, the setting doesn't attract me much, but neither did WWII at great extent before CM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the Fighting Seabee Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 46. The ability to string together commands like "run and hide". 47. Unit info... stats and kills. 48. Wire. We used a lot of concertina wire when I was in. 49. Precalculated, on-call targets. 50. Detailed hits. 51. Water, bridges, etc. Although I could think of more, there are probably even more things I love about CMSF. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
