Fixes - Added Bren 3rd person animations. - Added Bren 3rd person animations on the Bren Carrier. - Fixed the muzzle flash misalignment on the Thompson M1928-A1. - Replaced placeholder weapons such as the Enfield No.2 MkI* and P35 with German weaponry.

Moon Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I've told you before... posting a one-liner followed by a copy&paste of PR materials is smelling of "underground marketing". It doesn't matter if the subject matter is free or not. What matters is the posting pattern, and this is your second infraction. If you want to discuss the Mod, that's fine but you need to post your opinion and something worthy of discussion, not a simple PR blob. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Ross Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Well despite the berating from the grumpy gits who own this forum I'd like to say thanks to the OP. Whizzing round in a Vickers Light Tank and letting rip with that big MG was loads of fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gautrek Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I think this mod is the best of the lot. The CS Matilda is a blast.having to face down 3 PZIII's with just smoke rounds left is fun.I nearly had them:p It needs a bit of tweeking.But its miles better than DH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmar Bijlsma Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Heaps better then DH. One little thing, the Vickers 0.50 is of no use against the PzII, which seems odd. SdKfz251s are dead meat though. Such a cute little tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanish Bombs Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 The Matilda is fun, as are all the new tanks, but it seems awful fast. It didn't lumber at all, like I expected. Not sure that this is accurate? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that this is accurate? Apparently they are working on a few issues with regard to the tank side combat.Its very much a case of get it out and then tweek it.So i'm willing to give them some leeway at the moment.But the Vickers is fun.Machine gunning the 88 mm AT gun crew is fun.In fact i like the Vickers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Ross Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Bwahahaha! Those Aussies sure can swear....I almost fell off the chair laughing at the insult command. Word of warning: Clear the rooms of kiddies and sensitive types before you start the game...'Hitler has only got one ball' is by far the mildest of the lot.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Ross Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Hmmm, I appear to have had an excess of alcohol last time I played this game and posted here. Of course I didn't 'nearly fall off the chair laughing'. That would make me a vapid teenage twit. Still, Aussie humour is almost fun when you've had a few. However, the warning still stands See you on the field - TWB server is my stomping ground. Well, I say stomp, but more of a 'tiptoe around hoping that forin' bugger doesn't notice me trying to stick a bayonet in his back' may be more apporpriate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 One tweak they have done that I really like is the need to unbutton before bailing from a tank, should cut down on the people you see jumping out of their tank just before it blows up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Yeah, that was a nice and unexpected twist. Lovely little detail. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Finally got around to trying out the new MN update. It is good, I do like the Arad/Irid redone. Same basic map but feels fun again in the desert setting with different tanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogface Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 See you on the field - TWB server is my stomping ground. TWB Dessert Storm? I play there and Mare Nostrum TWI dev's east. Also the mare nostrum official 1.3 east #1 and #2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogface Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I would be into that. I played some DOD campaigns and when they were well run and I had good commanders it was a hell of a lot of fun. I just signed up and am waiting my confirmation, I will sign up as allies as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
