Elmar Bijlsma Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 With that main question answered, let me voice my surprise that the modelling of two separate divisions is described as "only these two units". Yeah, what is a division or two between friends, eh? Could you give me only two Ferraris? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarquelne Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 With that main question answered, let me voice my surprise that the modelling of two separate divisions is described as "only these two units". It is a huge difference from the CMx1 games. I'm still surprised at the relative paucity of units in CMBN. Relative being the operative term - I think (Steve's?) one time characterization of it's customers as "spoiled" by the first series perfectly fair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Every unit is portrayed in 2-3 times as much detail, so there are fewer units. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, what is a division or two between friends, eh? Could you give me only two Ferraris? Heh... yeah, the same argument could be made for us to put in British forces for free, or anything else for that matter. These units were excluded from CM:BN's base game not because they are insignificant historically, but they are significant from a development standpoint. And the American formations can live without them, while the British couldn't. It is a huge difference from the CMx1 games. I'm still surprised at the relative paucity of units in CMBN. Relative being the operative term - I think (Steve's?) one time characterization of it's customers as "spoiled" by the first series perfectly fair. Besides us putting way too much into our previous games relative to what people paid, there's this... Every unit is portrayed in 2-3 times as much detail, so there are fewer units. Yup. We probably put more effort in total into the TO&E (E = Equipment) in CM:BN than we did CMBO. I can say that for sure because back when we made CMBO I personally made nearly all the 3D models, most of the textures, all of the non-American TO&E (Charles did most of the American), formations, and researched tons of things for the data necessary to make them work right. With CM:BN I only did the TO&E formations, and I probably spent as much time doing that as all the things I mentioned I did for CM:BO. I'm not kidding.

gunnergoz Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 So does that mean the 1199th Messkit Repair Battalion has to wait for the next module? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aewert Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 how about the 995th Hamstertruppen? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryphonne Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Have there been any hints about what vehicles will be added in module #1? I think at least the Jagdpanther and King Tiger (Porsche turret/non production turret) for the Germans. And of course all the Commonwealth goodies 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relative being the operative term While lamenting what's missing, don't forget to celebrate the units that are already in CMBN which never made it into CMBO/AK. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mord Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 For use noobs, which units are those JonS? MarderIII maybe? Little M8 Howitzer thingy? I detailed them here... http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=94458 Mord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Actually, I was more thinking about units like the Cav Recon Sqn, the Armd Inf Bn, the Tank Bn and Light Tk Bn, the TD Company, and so on. Then there's all the vehicles that Mord listed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I noticed this tendency in my old model hobby days. The most popular vehicle in surveys was always the one there wasn't a kit of yet. Then when the much-anticipated kit arrived everyone immediately forgot about it and demanded another vehicle that wasn't in kit form yet. Repeat and repeat. They always wanted the ones they didn't have more than the ones they did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 It's easy to forget about the organizations that surround the sexy bits of metal, but IMHO that's what makes CMx2 the best out there. There's such a rich diversity of units out there and most games simply give you a couple component pieces and a bunch of vehicles. Personally, I'd rather have less E and more O on my Table Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Fortunately we get both! Mord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
