Andross Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hey guys, after CM:C was cancelled i haven,t visited this site for a long while. I was really surprised a few weeks ago when i saw the new CM title, also i wait for a damn release date! Read here somewhere about February 2011 but nothing official. After playing CM:BB for years i was really disappointed from CM:SF (and its not this disappointment on a high level like SC2 or God of War 3 or or or, it was a HUGE disappointment, just my opinion) and also hope for a return to the old system (and of course play a REAL conflict, not watching how bugs get smashed by a small child, know that only way you can win/survive is that case the child miss you) So please, bring out this game, SOOON or let us know when it happens 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barkhorn1x Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 You really didn't expect BF to respond with something like: "Well, now that Andross is back and asked about the release date, let's announce it!" ...now did you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andross Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 i am not asking them i am asking all of you. mr and mrs negative was just wondering that there are questions about issues i couldnt have ever been imagine but noone talks about release date. in the end it could ends like CM:Campaigns (which was my most wanted game ever) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsonm Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Well as a member of "you". NFI re release date (and nor does anyone else - apart from Steve). Some may think they know but most of that is based on old information which they have then extrapolated until its basically useless. It will come out when its ready. "Ready" will be defined by Steve / Moon / Charles, et al. No doubt they will tell us all when that time comes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 i am not asking them i am asking all of you. Well then, I'll go way out on a limb and guess maybe sometime this year. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeatEtr Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 So please, bring out this game, SOOON or let us know when it happens Then: i am not asking them i am asking all of you. It clearly looks like your asking BF and not the fans for rumor-mill. But if you do want the speculation of the community then try a search. http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=94570&highlight=release+date http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=94196&highlight=release+date 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan/california Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 You don't know who is special in advance. So far one very unhappy fruit vendor has accounted for two Arab governments, and I don't think the dominoes are necessarily done falling, either. I do hope they continue to avoid writing the back story for a new module. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also CMSF has come on a long way since it's release....your really talking about a game that doesn't exist anymore...download the demo...if you still don't like the game mechaincs I wouldn't put money on you liking CMBN. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellfish Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I never understood how players would complain in an M1A1 vs T-55s then use Tigers or Panthers against Shermans or Stuarts. It's basically the same thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG TOW Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 This is where I get confused....CMBN will more or less play like CMSF but with WW2 equipment....not sure how your going to like it if you hated CMSF and want a game like CMx1...as it isn't going to be like CMx1 it's going to be like CMSF.

I kind of see where Andross is coming from, the mechanics of CFSF are fine, but some people just can't get around the asymetrical warfare, or the bland lighting/terrain effects of the middle east. Some people I said. Everyone has their own opinion. Or maybe WW2 is the niche preferred, over modern era. CMBN has canals, argriculture, forests, bridges groves, lush and populated with objects. Warfare can be symetrical, PzIV vs Sherman, Stug vs Wolverine, squad vs squad. If you wanted to play it that way. Not saying CMSF is not play balanced by any means. Just that it may be possible for people to like CMBN over CMSF as long as they like and understand the game mechanics between the two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tactical Wargamer Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Hey guys, So please, bring out this game, SOOON or let us know when it happens I feel your pain on CMC. It truly was ahead of its time. It would have been the ultimate add-on to the CM1 series. Maybe someday Steve (or third party) will make an effort into an operational type of wargame using this excellent tactical engine. As to a release, pure speculation on my part but I would be checking in regularly. I would think 2nd quarter would be a fair estimate. The AAR's and most recent pics look very polished IMHO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AAR's and most recent pics look very polished IMHO. I get the feeling that there is still a lot of polishing to do; combined with (imo) Battlefront having a considerable amount riding on this release it would seem we will get a final product that reflects it. In the pure speculation department, with the worldwide dog-and-pony shows starting this very weekend it can't be too far to a release of a demo- maybe a month or... three? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finalcut Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I think its abut the environment more then anything else.CMSF was kinda bland as far as the terrain.Don't get me wrong,I loved the game,Im just getting tired of Desert fights.I am soooooooo looking forward to some green in my environment.We"The United States" never seem to fight wars in a nice environment,It is all Deserts these days.It will be nice to go back to a beautiful country like France to do our killing.I wish we could invade the Bahamas.Then I may just have to reenlist.Desert warfare sucks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 We"The United States" never seem to fight wars in a nice environment... I recall as a teenager watching the movie Drums Along the Mohawk or some such on tv, and there was this one battle that was being fought in this beautiful forest. Guys were dodging behind these big fir trees and trading shots with their muskets, and I remember thinking, "What a beautiful place to have a war." Of course, nowadays with artillery and all, the trees would be reduced to shredded kindling and it wouldn't be beautiful at all. Pity. Maybe we should all go back to smoothbore muskets and bayonets.

Michael Emrys Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Silent movie? It might have been this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0031252/ but I don't think that was it. A little more likely is this one since it is set in the French-Indian War: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0027869/ Or it could have been something else entirely. I don't recall the name.
