Status: offline 		Well, it's decided this is going to be "THE" birthday game for me(B-Day is 7.12), give or take the July drop date.

I just hope the Son Town maps are as fun in this verison as they were in the classic, esp when the Panzer Brigade shows up with it's Panthers and Panzer IV L70s

Interesting in the shot of vehicles and planes in the game posted, it looked like a sdkfz.234/2 was included, but I don't think any of the units had them. Just 1.SS, 2.Pz, Panzer Lehr and 20.Panzer having issued all but 8 of the 101 of the Pumas armoured cars.

Status: offline 		yeah, im not looking for anything to deep or complex with vocals.

simple stuff like hearing soldiers say stuff like "incoming" "take cover" "get down", when taking fire and when they accept orders you could hear stuff like "get moving squad" or "time to to move" or something. just some flavor

this is one of the things i actually did enjoy quite abit about "company of heroes" my favorite line in the game was "tie your f-ing laces private" and "get moving, there's a war one" lol cool stuff

Check the Read Me's or DL page for any information.


Patch 3.4 is aTournamentHouse.com approved for ladder play patch.
It changes some data etc...(full details in read me. Attachment 1)

To uninstall back to the 2.0b patch settings run the
3.4_Patch_AutoUninstall.exe file.
This will overwrite the 3.4 data files with 2.0b data and will add a
2.0b update.txt file.

To swap back to the 3.4 patch settings run the
3.4_Patch_AutoInstall.exe file again.

so easy to swap back if U don't like it.

After U have done para try Afrika...or 1940 mod...Click on the link on Mafia's Afrika mod
to have a peek at what U are in for...Should keep you busy for a long, long time.

Para & the 3.4 patch...are very different try them both...Me i love the Afrika mod.
Have FUN!!!

Status: offline 		I watched the video and feel as an advertising tool it fell short, really short of its goal. I was hoping for more from it. I like the system so I will probably buy the game. Others may watch and not buy it based on the lackluster presentation.

My opinion of course.

===============================


i agree with blastpop. the video is/was somehow....lame. if i would not own the original CC2, i would not really be tempted by it. you can't make out much. what you can see is just the standard game procedure all CC games share. you can not see much of the new (unit) graphics (if there are any). non of the new features. would not use this video for advertising not even for showing off. for me it even falls short of being a proper video aar.

A better movie would have 3 mins of black and white old footage and 5 mins from the game.  Say 15 x 20 second extracts of action from 15 different maps.

One would show a tank and armoured car in convoy driving in a straight line over a long distance!

Status: offline 		The Black and White footage is the exact same opening of CC2, just much much clearer and less pixeled than the CC2 video(Also in the extras of CC2, there are videos of some of the weapons used)
