Well, until this whole thing is straightened out, I guess I'll have to pass on buying. I'm not claiming to be the sharpest pencil in the pack but I'm confused now, and just a bit frustrated. This is after reading the whole thread through twice now. And just to clarify, I have checked on this while ...

No sale for me until this gets answered one way or the other.

I've been considering purchasing FPC: Cold War since I own and have enjoyed all of the titles in the series so far, but I'm a bit confused regarding the wording of the 50% discount offer.

The offer says:
As a thank you to our longtime supporters, existing Flashpoint Campaigns: Southern Storm ...

I posted this on the now locked "Sept39" thread:

I'm a long-time lurker who very rarely posts these days on any forum or sub-forum, but this really caught my eye.

I think Elessar2 has every right to be upset. However, I'd advise everyone to try and tone it down a little. I see no need for ...

I think what you're looking for is something like this: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 6&t=406194

Announced in Sept. 2024, they say it's due out this summer, but since RTW is basically a one or two man show I wouldn't be surprised if it takes longer.

Guys,

A few days ago I lost my temper and stated that I was done posting about this non-appearing patch, and I'm still holding to that.
The patch may or may not ever get released. Nice if it does, but OK if it doesn't so far as I care anymore.

What I am concerned with is people insinuating ...

Thanks for reminding me to go to Muster.

Keep me in mind if CWIE2 kicks up.

If you have the manual (can't recall if it both shipped with the game-hard copy-and also came with the pdf-soft copy) but I have both, although I have not leafed through the hard copy in a long while. There is ...

Absolutely agree! Those SPI games were true classics! I remember playing "War in the East" with my dad when I was a kid, he always took Russia and I went with Germany, haha. The rules were simple, but the gameplay could get really intense. Plus, the player negotiations added so much flavor – I ...

I was a beta tester for CWIE2, and also one of the "lead" testers, setup folks and did the counter artwork for that game. My good friend Steve sadly passed away about five years ago and I have not been able to really play it with any heart since then. Plus a bit of burn out I guess you could say ...

Oh ye of little faith! Have no doubt, "Matrix has it and it'll be soon, two or three weeks." ;)

Last night I went ahead and uninstalled WItP-AE. This will be the first time since the initial release that it has not been on any computer that I've owned.

Should the final patch EVER get ...

For me at least.

I remember back in the mid 1970's and early 1980's playing the SPI games "War in The East", "War in The West", and War in Europe" while stationed in (then) West Germany as two player and three player games. Those were huge but simple "monsters" with rules that could be read and ...

And another month has passed lol...lets see if we can make it to 2025 and three years! :mrgreen:

My $0.02:

I would agree it is partly that many of the original devs have moved on. But, actually I feel the biggest part is simply that as the game has evolved with the input of the players, its complexity has increased manifold. The interrelations of so many of the variables has increased ...

This quote goes back to July, but just out of curiosity I wonder I anyone can think of any other Matrix title that has gone through a patching process that has taken this long or been as convoluted?



Jwilkerson has stated in the past that everything with this build seems to take 10 times ...

Actually, we're going back and forth with Matrix trying to get the build perfect.
Its no longer about the code or the data for the game.
Its about making sure we have exactly the correct versions of each necessary file in the build. And this has turned out to be harder that I expected.
But we are ...

Seems to be an endless cycle here:

1. Someone asks about the status of the patch.

2. Someone else replies "soon" just a few problems left to fix.

3. We're told it's in Matrix's hands and "testing".

4. A new problem or bug is then discovered while testing, or maybe just playing with the only ...

No worries people, everything is going to be all right real, real, SOON.

Just around the corner now, great things are going to happen, and the most tested, bug free, and perfect patch in history will be here. Just keep the faith, you'll see!!!!

Thanks:

issues i found in patch first cursory test :


1 -8 December scanrio seems to not have any difference from grand campaign scenario, both start in day 7. I thought the 8 December was with historical results and the KB going to japan already

2 -In Formosa there is an army bomber sentai in ...
