A little quiz to keep us interested while we are waiting for the developers.

What is the name of this formation ?

A Withdrawal* for the first correct answer.

*not guaranteed to be fully functional.

BTW Robert Crandall gave us an update in the Flashpoint Germany forum. He posts whenever we ask for an update. Simply amazing support in keeping his potential customers abreast of his upcoming game. [&o]

then we all need to start posting in the flashpoint forum and ask how good the units withdraw in that game, and why he has abandoned us here! Perhaps it's the kind of audience that would be surprised by the lack of support here.

It's pretty anoying when you have people willing to fix this, yet they can't because they don't have the code.  Just sign somebody up for a few weeks and get them fixing.  I'm not sure why it's so hard.

Has anyone actually bothered to PM Messers Cooney or Obsolete

Nawww, make the thread longer...[;)][:D]

I sent a support ticket, that should have been forwarded to Cooney or Coakley. Instead I get a terse answer that all "game related" questions be asked in the forum. The withdrawal bug is a BUG, and the freezing bug is a BUG.

C'mon Agent S, how hard is it for Cooney et al, to talke a look at THEIR forum. So the thread goes on. It really is shameful that even Matrix can't be bothered to say yep, no more support, the developers are gone, game over. Move along nothing to see here. or LIke other games, we are working on it, and it is going to take some time. We will post once a month on progress.

So I keep posting until SOMEONE responds to our requests.

Have you sent a support ticket complaining about the withdrawal problem? Send one, see what they say. They ain't obviously going to say anything here. They must be ticked at us about something. How dare we complain. I would say we have been pretty polite through all of this, with just good natured kidding and teasing.

I might be wrong but I don't think Robert Crandall has anything to do with CC or Boku, he is just an example of a developer that responds to posts in his forum - I know its a stupid idea for a developer to do this and I'm sure we won't have to suffer such an indignity here [:)]

P.S. Missing Man Formation, though missing developers is a better answer.

Thanks for the update. I also liked Flashpoint (although the editor needed work) and read about the new game. I usually don't dig that deep into the old game forums. CCME is a "new release." [:-]

Maybe it so quite because they are working on the patch. I guess I will check back tomorrow.

You know....after 21 days this will be a habit [:)]

I love the fact that you guys are all here and we aren't going to let them get away without answering us someday. Of course I may be dead and gone, but I will rely on you younger fellas to keep up the good fight. It could become the never ending story.

Well, the beat goes on. I'm still playing the game, but when my units bump up against the enemy, it's pretty much a suicide pact. Not always, but usually. Needs to be fixed, along with other questions that have gone unanswered by people on the "Forgotten Forum."

I don't think I could edit my original thread name can I? We might be able to come up with a clever name. Not that it would get noticed, but would be amusing for the few, the brave, and dedicated posters here. I mean the Taliban thread never got a response.

Of course even discussing clever names could get us in trouble with Matrix, they could shut the thread down, and still never respond. Kind of like the KGB in the middle of the night. Joe, Joe? Hey guys Joe's gone, man he was just over there Tom, and he....Tom, Tom?

Ok, my post for the day, so take it away.
