Skinnedpuppy Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I was playing a game earlier, first of all after a short stutter my units teleported into one far corner of the map, then after another stutter there was the mother of all explosions, the size of the crater is unbelivable, as expected all units died.

MikeyD Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Some people always pestered them to include tactical nukes. Maybe they included it a an easter egg 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew H. Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I think this is designed to realisticall reflectthe USAF's sometimes slipshod handling of nukes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SgtMuhammed Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 That is SOOOOOO cool. Hopefully they turn it into a feature. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan/california Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Now I know why some of those Syrian buildings are so hard to knock down, they have 100 ft plus deep foundations. The FAC must have misidentified the target as Assad's bunker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Er, uhm, well... I think we'll need to take a look at that Skinnedpuppy, please send off to Dima if you haven't already. Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinnedpuppy Posted June 19, 2008 Author Share Posted June 19, 2008 Sent this morning, as an aside I wasn't able replicate that no matter times I replayed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I'm not surprised you weren't able to replicate it. We'd have seen this before if it was easy to reproduce. Which would take all the fun out of the novelty of this "event" you experienced Regardless of what happened, I have your screenshots saved in a folder. Since the early days of CMBO development I've saved screenshots of really crazy stuff like this for a chuckle later. Unfortunately, I usually forget to either take them or save them.

Lampshade111 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 This happened to be once before during the campaign on one of the city maps towards the end. I was in the middle of the battle and once again the game locked up. But instead of ending the program and restarting my computer I messed around with the task manager a bit and got it running again. To be greated by lag, the sound of a huge ass explosion, and the whole city consumed in a crater besides for the demolished buildings. The battle immediately ended in a draw. Almost all of my force and that of the enemy was destroyed. I took some screenshots (or at least pressed the print screen button) and eventually redid the scenario but I have no clue where those screenshots ended up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeknodathon Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 That ain't an explosion.. its Reptiloid controlled demolition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicky Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 IIRC there was also a similar cascading CAS splodey bug in CM1 which wiped out towns. Tried to look through the archive but no joy. Remember similar shock and awe! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Kettler Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Skinnedpuppy, Repeat after me. "I will not use a GOW weapon in CMSF ever again!" The only logical explanation is that somehow one of your guys used the Hammer of God to call down an orbital strike. If he's still alive, suggest you rigorously interrogate him as to how he came by it. Now, look this way....FLASH.

leakyD Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Maybe you called in a "MOAB" arty module without realizing it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
