gunnersman Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Maybe, JUST MAYBE (I do hope), at the least, the game will be TOO realistic, TOO slow therefore TOO boring for some and they will all go away. But we will have to endure the pain first. Just maybe. But I hope that those who do stay will learn the ways of the light side of the force.

Arkel Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Aren't you the cool guys, picking on 1C's and BF's pottentially new customers, which will help make this game big and ensure future addons by higher sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunnersman Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Arkel, I seriously doubt anyone here thinks they are cool, least of all me. I welcome new people anywhere anytime. Make new friends but keep the old one is silver and the other is gold But it is nice learning from some of the more learned self starters here who take these forums relatively serious and put out relevant information. And when they do kid around they generally have one thread for it i.e. "The Peng Challenge". And when they dont put it there, there the humor is usually pretty intelligent and not low brow (not that there has been low brow humor ....yet). But I see speech trends that remind me of other forums I have visited that were less benign. And it is kind of a downer. That being said, I have also noticed that there has been little info put out by the developers. And when the cats are away, the mice will play. More or less.

We're not cool. We've got no problems with higher sales and new customers. But this is our turf and we don't want to these forums dumbed down to what passes for discourse in the broader internet gaming forums. By being unwelcoming assholes we can preserve our little piece of the internet pie. The game will still sell and the roxor boxor crowd can entertain itself at 1C's place or any of a legion of fan sites that have sprung up. Dude.

gunnersman Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Now this is more like it. Way off topic both in the thread and forum topic but at least its not constantly childish.

Kong Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 LOL Hofbauer, I remember when my number was really high! And I was a complete WWII strategy noob when I joined. Never heard of Squad Leader nor could I correctly identify a STuGIII or a M10. But alas now I've become a semi-grog. I've read 35+ books on WWII. I understand the nuances of the Panther D vs G, the many variations of the Sherman, why the Tiger is not so uber, ad nauesum. Worst though, I've become a stickler for realism and accuracy when it comes to anything WWII. Sure sign of being on that slippery slope that leads to hard core grogness!!!! I will say this, the mix of old grog and young leet should prove to be interesting!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iplaygames2 Posted September 10, 2006 Author Share Posted September 10, 2006 Well I sure hope my asking what the spec requirements for the game are is what set off this debate of newb/noob vs vet or loyal fan. I've purchased every CM game since CMBO, and I also own DiF. If you've been around a while, you know what those acronyms are. If now, search around a bit. Oh, I also think my English is pretty good.
