womble Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Apologies if I'm being slow on the uptake, but I noticed in a couple of the recent preview reports that some games were being played with 2 on each side. Is that actually 4 computers involved, with the forces of each side formally split between the 2 team members? Or was it just that each side had two people looking at the same computer and combining ideas and observations? I looked at the Features list, and it doesn't advertise team play, as far as I saw, but it'd be a welcome feature if it's gotten in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaws Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 No team play possible. But I did a lot of 2 vs 2 PBEM with CMX1 and this is also possible CMBN. Just divide forces and share password with counterpart and you can have a lot of fun 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnart Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Team play would absolutely revolutionize CM! Perhaps that is something BF could think of for Cmx3 engine. 2v2 capability would be good for PBEM. I think anything more would be a bit hard to do, or at least take a very long time to complete. For RTS I would love to see a 3v3 + 1 observer slot for each side. 3v3 because 3 is the set up for base military composition ie 3 squads make 1 platoon, 3 platoons make 1 company ect... If each player had a company the entire side would equal 1 battalion with the observer possible acting as a battalion commander for higher tactical play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not, by even the slightest whisker of a smidgeon, a dealbreaker, but I do so like co-op game play Thanks for clearing that up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
