Hi,
I got a game running with pioneer[RT] and MGK. I really like this game. I have time for 3 more games, though. So I really like to start some new ones!!!;)

Sorry....maybe its me but I just cant understand wot anybody sees in this game.

1). Troops that walk in mid-air when crossing from building to building.
2). No line of sight even when the enemy is directly (ie. less than a metre!) adjacent.
3). Lines-of-sight that go through the ground (and buildings etc).
4). Troops that keep on advancing into enemy fire even after the lead elements have been blown away.
5). Hopeless pathfinding for vehicles
6). Hopeless AI
7). I could go on but I'm getting bored..........

It just hasn't grabbed me in the same way BO, AK & BB did, for me CM is all about the QB and randomly generated maps making no two battles the same. I know new maps are available for downloading over at CM:Mods but we are still stuck with what ever BF have given us as troop selection and for me half the fun is selecting your troops.

I have looked into the editor to see what red troops have and there are some rare types which would throw a curve ball on any US troops in a QB but sadly we can't select them.

As it stands I am disapointed with it overall but it does have potential with some work.

Yes, I suppose so. I guess I 'just dont get it.' (to quote Steve the BF forum moderator). ;)

yes I cant understand this game, its not a game that will grab me .After trying to play it a few times it just leaves me cold and uninterested. RIP CM :-(

Yeah, I have been posting a lot on BF trying to get them to fix a number of issues. They are working on patching the game, and we can only hope they continue to improve the game. I am supporting them in the hopes that we will see a WWII version that is every bit as good as the CM we all know and love. Steve at BF seems rather flippent about some of the complaints, and that some of us "just don't get it", but I think it is the other way around, they just don't get it. It is almost like CMSF was designed by a completly new design team, that sort of got close to CM, but failed to include so many basic fetures and choices that made CM1 so great.
