Matrix Games Forums

Been playing wargames since tactics II and it is rare that a dev team have been so involved with the consumer during the birth of a game. I loved FPG even with its limits. Your releasing the game the day I leave on vaca, but it will be my first post back to real life purchase. I hope your "investment" in time keeping us updated, results in success. Best of luck with your upcoming release!! I have huge confidence this is a game made by wargamers for wargamers. [&o]

Thanks Jimbo123. I hope you get the chance to enjoy it when you get back from your vacation. I'm sure there will be a few copies left on the digital shelf to grab. [:D]

Jimbo, Didn't you play a good bit of CM?

Good Hunting.

I'm pumped for this one too. This is one of my big winter game must haves

MR I am trying to acess the memory backs for CM. What game was that?

Pretty sure I'm coming down with a case of red flu. If these symptoms persist, I may need a sick day come 10/8 [:D]

CM = Combat Mission

CMBB = Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
CMAK = Combat Mission: Afrika Korps

You remember playing any HSG scenarios for either of those games?

Good Hunting.

With this game you are gonna need more like a sick week. The symptoms have already been diagnosed as, "Just need to play one more turn!!" [&o]

It's bad...it's REALLY BAD!! [:D]

Good Hunting.

Who am I to argue with the good doctors orders? I don't want to infect my co-workers ... at least not until I have my copy downloaded. [;)]

The problem with wanting to play just one more turn is that it usually becomes 5-8 more turns. [:D] Well who needs to sleep or work when the game demands my direction.

Was caught up in the CMNAO beta and missed this one - to my regret. Old time wargamer, cut my teeth on PanzerBlitz in the 70's. This looks awesome and I've put an appointment in my work calendar for purchase on 10/8. If only real life can get out of the way - first CW2, then CMNAO and now FPC Red Storm - feels like Christmas...

Germany's unification day was last on Thursday 03.10, would have been a great day for release then I would have had 4 days of testing/playing/working with FCRS. Ok I can wait a few more days, still counting the days though.
Is release GMT time or USA time? [;)]

Being a fan of both WWIII games in general (Air & Armor, World at War, etc.) and the original Flashpoint: Germany I can say that this game is great! It takes things to a new level and provides a very deep Campaign and Multi-Player experience. The WEGO system is probably one of my favourite game mechanics. Having each player phase depending on their current C3 status builds a lot of tension when things get hot and every order seems to be critical.

A word of warning though, don't let those T-80s get too close! At 500m they can transform any of NATOs technological marvels into a flaming roman candle in a matter of moments.

My hat goes off to the developer. Can't wait to download the final version!
