ColumbusOHGamer Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 ...not Modern vs. WWII or left vs. right. the most important thing we should be b!tching about is this quote from Steve: "However, we won't have much new stuff to show for a few months." I'm more disappointed about that than anything else. What a tease Steve! I can have an open mind and expore the options of modern desert warfare, but having to wait "a few months" will probably cause me to create a protest website. C'mon, can't you guys work any faster?? COG P.S. It's all love for bf.c though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrold Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Actually, he has said there will be more information near the end of this month when the next issue of Computer Gaming World comes out. BDH 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juan_gigante Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 At least we have something. Do you remember the time before? Having 5 or so threads on the 1st page like "CMx2 Setting", "CMx2 & WWII", "How long until announcement?!?". I'd rather talk about modern desert warfare than go back there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anybody besides me noticed how the center of gravity of posting has suddenly leapt from the GF to this forum? There must be a reason...

juan_gigante Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 It is because all of us high member number chaps have risen up and started posting our views as the old guard vow never to buy CM:SF and slow down. ¡Viva La Revolución! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splinty Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Hey, I'm old guard-sort of-and I can't wait to see the new game, but then having been to both Desert Storm and OIF, my interest is more personal then the WWII only crowd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, as I am currently sitting in a tent about 1.5 miles south of the Iraqi border, and my crew is on it's way north escorting a convoy, the setting kind of hits home for me. I am really looking forward to getting this and trying out some user created scenarios. I want to see how BFC models an insurgent team lit up by a Humvee mounted 240. I do hope we see either a module or some user created stuff that will allow us to do what if stuff in central europe in the 80's. Some of my most entertaining memories at a board game table were playing GDW's The Third World War. I do love WW2, but I also like modern, ancients, and Napoleonics. I am also salivating in anticipation of Grognards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 NG cavscout... missed the fact that you got deployed. Remember that unlike the Peng thread, where you are now matters I want to see how BFC models an insurgent team lit up by a Humvee mounted 240.Depends on the range. The 240 Watt Bulbs are only good out to a few feet in the desert. Or are you talking about Humvees with the cool neon "gangsta" lights along the bottom? That adds a little contrast to shadows at close range. It also changes the lighting effect when the insurgents are lit up. Hope that answers your question!
