Guys ...

While I'm here .. does anybody know when, or in deed if Matrix plans to re-release CS Divided Ground or the newer Vietnam and Korean war up-dates that go with it .... ?

Now, Divided Ground was a deeply flawed game. The major problems:

Helicopters were unable to move over steep slopes (they were modeled as vehicles).
ATGM ammo was unlimited (so the BMP could keep firing atgms forever, when in reality they had about three shots -- the manpac teams had about three shots as well).
ATGM overwatch could not be modeled.
SAMs could be used against tanks and infantry (there wasn't a class of weapons that could fire *only* at aircraft).
The oobs were wayyyyy off (I know, because I once tried to fix them -- my mod is still floating around out there somewhere.

I gave up on the game. Any plans to fix this stuff? At present, Korea is more or less do-able, but Vietnam and the 1973 war are not.

Chris!

Long time no see, I hope you're well.

Yes, there is a lot to correct with DG and we've tackled most of the issues you've listed. Still a ways to go though.
