Yesterday.........

There was almost no one in here. Now look what a release has done. Now we have a crowd. Reminds me of the auctions in World of Warcraft.[:D]

I'm installing now :)

Love the armor new camo, love the new sounds like MGs etc...maps are much bigger (or bigger at least). Tanks seems to move around better including rotating the turret etc. Overall I'm really happy good job Matrix Games guys! Now get to work to release CC5: Normandy :)

I've only had time to load up a quick scenario. I must say, it looks lovely in 1680x1050. Will send more impressions later.

How is the campaign map? Campaign is dynamic or static (like in COI, just some linked missions)?

You guys are sooo slow in posting. Now I had to purchase the game without preliminary user impressions. Patience doesn't belong to my virtues. [:(]

Yeah, well some of us are parents and work for a living. I stayed up til 1:00am just so I could play through the Bastogne scenario and have something to say on here today. I "almost" feel sorry for you in having to purchase the game in order to find out how much fun it is. [;)]
