Miska Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I just would love to see IDF in this game so if we get enough people to support that idea maybe then battlefront will change their mind 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melnibone Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Why would they bother - all the potential hassle is just not worth it IMHO. I suspect they would need a team of full-time forum moderators! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieme(ITA) Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I think that IDF would be great because it could be presented both as conventional land forces and unconventional warfare specialists. Pro IDF: -vehicles and weapons from 1947 to 2007. (from AMX-13 and M4 Shermans to Merkava MK3 etc.) -great selection of Unconventional warfare vehicles (M113/Humvee based and based upon tanks' hulls) It would represent a continuum quite good since terrain and actual CMSF setup would allow without any problem IDF presence. Cons: -Some more arab countries should be involved and unconventional warfare OPFOR side should be granted more weapons too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'Rogers Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I think the issue isn't who would buy an IDF module, but who would only buy an IDF module. I have the same chance of picking up a British, Marine, or IDF module. I imagine many people are the same way, with the actual context of the module (vs. the features it provudes) being the major issue (ie does it add gameplay). I'd buy a "Land Units of the Pacific Islands" module if it added to the game. On the other hand the support for a British, Canadian, German, and USMC module likely well outweighs the IDF in terms of people looking for a context module. As there are so only so many modules BFC will make before they move onto another project it is an issue of which context would sell best (assuming BFC interest was equal in all the subject matters, and I have no idea on that). So if you want an IDF module instead of just saying it would be cool, you need to say why it would be better than any of the proposed modules in added gameplay/sales (or worth adding on another module and potentially delaying WWII ... certain people on forum might hunt you down for that though). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have enough WW2. this is the first realistic strategy game in the "present" an you will imidiate switch back to WW2?

Sgt Joch Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 There are pros and cons to an IDF module. I personally am all for it since the IDF would be a natural fit for a middle east game. BFC, however, has stated that there will be no IDF module, since other than among hardcore wargamer, there is a limited market for a IDF module and I don't disagree with that assessment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xmifi Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Originally posted by Sgt.Joch: there is a limited market for a IDF module and I don't disagree with that assessment. I totally agree with you here. On the other side if you add NATO expansion. Including some more European armament. That will have a big interest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkEzra Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 This is what Steve Said just the other Day: If we do Modules for foreign militaries we will try to retain commercial rights to at least the basic elements, which would mean more Modules. So at this point it looks like the only chance of an IDF Module is if we do a contract with the IDF itself. I never say never, but I'd not be counting on that happening Steve Obviously more issues at stake then just a burning desire to see Merkava's in action will solve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrykerPSG Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 My vote is in for both NATO and IDF expansion modules. There are some fantastic platforms from both and since NATO is supporting OEF now, not unrealistic to expect them to share responsibilites in a Syrian invasion too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NimitsTexan Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Actually, what I would like to see most is another OPFOR "module." Granted, any other Middle Eastern military is going to play about the same, but how about a Russian OPFOR deployed to the Middle East for a "Bear Resurgent" type scenario? The Soviet's had a long history of indirect involvedment, and a Russian expeditionary force in the Middle East could make plausible story lines . . . plus it would allow a more "balanced" Blue v Red engagment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mabye, but the Russians never export the top of the line, and that's what I want to see. Plus, I want Russian infantry & specops, not Syrian formations using Russian weapons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless something has changed, development of CM:SF modules was intended to happen at the same time as development of WW2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
