Last Stand Arnhem v5.60.02 Public Beta (Updated)

[e_barkmann]

That particular voice queue (German equivalent of 'we're under fire') has an radio transmission sound at the beginning.  And that's what threw me, that sounds more like a friendly side communication.

A thought and suggestion. When you are playing the game, could you not put the "Allies attacking, Meeting engagement, Axis attacking"-screen BEFORE the screen where you select your troops, so you know if you are selecting for offensive troops or defensive ones?

Regards, Henrik.

This can be fixed by showing the deploy zones for the initial engagement. Accurate deploy zones are only shown on meeting engagements where two BGs enter an empty map on the same strategic turn.

Thanks for pointing that out. Will look at it.

As it's a more or less public beta I think feedback is important?

Yes, feedback on the these beta releases is definitely important! The more things reported with details on how to recreate the problem the quicker they can be addressed/fixed....

Speaking of voice cues, Polish forces still have some Russians hanging about who are responsible for such outbursts as "Corporal," "We're Busy," and "Enemy Spotted."

I joined to say I really admire the work you are doing. I remember getting this game when I was 8 years old and fell in love with it. Here are my gripes though.

1. Germans shout "Granate!" when they are getting shot at regardless of distance! I'm sure you know this means grenade so you should probably get rid of that unless you can make it so they shout it when grenades are actually being thrown.
2. Machine gun sounds not consistent with the amount of rounds expended. I think its the Bren gun in particular. Perhaps for others.
3. It'd be cool if you could put in unit descriptions again like in the original CC2 game.

Apart from that keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback and suggested tweaks. Good suggestions. Glad to hear you're enjoying it.

If I update the game in the middle of a campaign, can I continue with that campaign, or do I need to start a new one?

[RD Oddball]

It's always recommended to start new campaigns or operations since data conflicts can exist if data has been changed within the update. You can always try it but if you think you might want to return to the original GC or op back it up (make a copy) before trying it in the new build.

Minor annoyance: Typing to an opponent in H2H while on the strat screen turns all the movement arrows on and off every time you press the space bar. Probably should be disabled while in chat mode.

Experiencing the same problem.

[RD Oddball]

Good suggestion. Thanks!

No error message if 02b plays 021b H2H
