Rocky Balboa Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hard to tell from static screen shots but it looks like the running animations are much improved from CMSF which looks unnatural to me. Great work guys, I can't wait to put CMBN through its paces ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guachi Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 On two of the helmets is a patterned design. Is it netting/webbing or a paint job? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fredrock1957 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Just Awesome... The Gaming World will be taken by storm...lol I find myself reloading the CM:BN main page until I get the 'running banner' for CM:BN and then I can watch/identify the vehicles coming over the hill and down the road... I have to stop once in a while to wipe the drool from my mouth.... I hope this is released soon... my sleep patterns are starting to get disrupted in anticipation... To all working on CM:BN - KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK That is all... -FR 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I find myself reloading the CM:BN main page until I get the 'running banner' for CM:BN and then I can watch/identify the vehicles coming over the hill and down the road... Heh... a hint: there are 10 different vehicles per banner (10 US and 10 German), appearing randomly in groups of 3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 ...the closest soldier has a sling attached to his K98. Eh? Sorry, I don't see it. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanzfeld Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 That little "belt buckle" throught the stock is how you attach a sling to that rifle, I think. Probably just a little artwork there and not an actual sling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Emrys, it's just below his right hand, it looks like an attachment for a sling. But appears to be part of the actual skin of the gun and not a separate 3D sling. Damn, I'm good, I got the CMBN banner on my first try. Very nice banner for the CMBN site. I guess this will have to do for all the video requests, at least for now. P.S. I think it maybe time to get rid of the ancient T-72 banner by now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 That little "belt buckle" throught the stock is how you attach a sling to that rifle, I think. I think you are right. But still no sling in the pic. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theFightingSeabee Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Heh... a hint: there are 10 different vehicles per banner (10 US and 10 German), appearing randomly in groups of 3. I did the same, but didn't bother to count. That is a cool banner though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisND Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Re: slings. Next time you play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare or any of its sequels, or most modern FPS games that have an insanely huge art budget with multiple entire studios working for them, you'll notice that there aren't any slings on their weapons and they just float near the characters. They are not fun or easy to make convincingly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshik72 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hey - is it me, or do all the Germans look like they're wearing GI olive drab shirts & round-necked t-shirts underneath their tunics? Don't they need a dark grey "hemd", or white/patterned silk scarve? Please fix or do somefink! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guachi Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Console games may have high art budgets, but the graphics capability of consoles is severely limited. Compared to a modern PC, the specs are a joke. Looking at some screenshots of X-Box version of CoD:Black Ops - the images are nice, but they are really small, not even 1 MP. So the images are really soft looking on my computer screen. I wonder how much the low graphics horsepower prevents console game designers from adding things like slings (even if they weren't hard to make) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rokko Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Can Vehicles with armor skirts like Panzer IVs in the screens loose individual skirts due to enemy fire or driving throug bumpy terrain and actually reduce the armor protection? It definately looks like it in the pics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battlefront.com Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Haha... slings... haha If I were to make a list of 100 graphical improvements I'd like to get into Combat Mission at some point, I'd not put slings on there. On a list of 1000 graphical improvements? Possibly, though it would be towards the bottom. They are nearly impossible to do and have look even remotely OK, so why bother investing a significant chunk of development resources into something that would not look very convincing no matter what we did? Just saying Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzermartin Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 About slings..imho super detailing is NOT good for the scale of Combat Mission. We should always focus on the big picture..animations, richer terrain visuals, better sfxs. Imagine slings done half baked with a rigid non animated string hanging from the rifles. It will look silly. Let's leave some room for imagination pls.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Yes, and that's why I might not even put it on a list of 1000 graphical improvements. We weigh graphical improvements against this standard all the time. Little graphical details do add up to make a more enjoyable game environment, true enough, but little graphical details that take huge amount of effort are almost never give back as much as they take.

Gromit Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Right... and it has to be something you believe you can pull off- particularly with this crowd (no offense intended- just the way it is). I am loving the attention to detail on the Deutsche uniforms already Steve, you guys are on a roll! :cool: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
