you've all done a terrible job on this game and the fact it does not duplicate history exactly makes me so mad that i just want to cry. i cant stand the thought of someone trying to make a game that does not allow me to have the exact results of ww2. im so pissed off that i might lose a pbem because my friggin troops dont act the way they do in real life. the thought of a game that is based on ww2 pto that does not provide me with the ability to win makes me sick. i hate you witp creators because you have not givin me the way to win the way i want to win. you suck and your game is flawed!

[&:][&:] are you being sarcastic ? I hope so
This is THE best and ONLY game in this genre with the amout of detail the devs have kindly provided for our enjoymnent. Also damn well supported with needed patches and some great player made mods. What is there to complain about? ( ron i please don't want to read another diatribe on subs [:'(][:D])
BigB if your serious why did you buy it in the first place ?? the forum is full of information about game style and content .. just read an AAR for %$rist's sake.
Oh well .. don't even know why i replied to this .. i must be bored [:D]

Either that or, as the patch isn't out yet, a reprise of the aircraft upgrades debate.[;)]

Guys...Lighten up..He is being facetious,and we are all friends here..That's his right..
He was VERY obviously making fun of the jokers who DO want to critisize(without contributing),and showing how they are acting like big babies,(or girly-men)..[8|]

Gotta agree BigB. I saw my KOEI PTO II in the closet yesterday and was tempted to get it out and get back to REAL war in the Pacific.

I don't think so. He has all of 13 posts to his persona and at least half of them have been nothing but whining and complaining of his own; all of it aimed squarely at posters he perceives as whiners.
He's on a personal crusade.[8|]

BigB, you are forgetting that the creators of this game are giving you that possibility. You want to receate the WW2 in the Pacific? You can. Play against yourself => a "hot seat" game. Easy. I suspect soon or late I will be doing that myself.
If you are going to say "this is boring", then I will tell you that real "professionals" (West Point, etc.) mostly "recreate" conflicts, that is, they study them. Us the "amateurs" play wargames. Quite different. Conclusion: you have that possibility, so don't be sad [:)]

Yeah, well... Aren't we out of discussion topics for game routines that won't be changing? I mean, we've beaten to death ASW, bombardment, land combat, surface sombat, air combat, morale, production, the map, leadership, the OOB, A6M vs. F4F-4, Iowa vs. Yamato...
I suppose we could give the weather model a drubbing, but I'd rather beat on the petulant
(I think one of the stock definitions of 'petulant' is 'BigB') newbie.[:D]

Truly, if you want the >exact< results of the PTO in WW2, why bother playing a game at all as you already know the results?[&:]

Unless "BigB" stands for BIG BULLSH1TTER, you might notice that you HAVE TOTALLY FAILED TO POINT OUT ANY
SPECIFIC REASONS OR EXAMPLES TO BACK UP YOUR CLAIM! If you have read this forum, you must have
discovered that there is a fair amount of support around for the view that 2by3 "dropped the ball" in a number
of areas---but without supplying any examples of what you find inaccurate, you are just making a lot of noise
that signifies nothing. So please, PUT UP or SHUT UP. The message you sent is a waste of space.
