Join the Flashpoint Campaigns: Southern Storm Beta

The new Cold War turned hot wargame from On Target Simulations, now expanded with the Player's Edition! Choose the NATO or Soviet forces in one of many scenarios or two linked campaigns. No effort was spared to model modern warfare realistically, including armor, infantry, helicopters, air support, artillery, electronic warfare, chemical and nuclear weapons. An innovative new asynchronous turn order means that OODA loops and various effects on C3 are accurately modeled as never before.

Thanks for the reply. I did get an email, but the link appears not to work. I get a message that says:

Download and installation went fine according to instructions.

Started with Panzers Forward and so far it works fine. Impressed by all the new possibilites.

First comment but may be a result of not reading the manual ;), I prefer to have no vehicle movement noise but I do like to have the 'hit explosions'. The vehicle noise seems artificial and it does not give me informmation. The explosions together with the animations are informative and point me to where the action happens. I liked that in Red Storm.

Looks that it is now combined in to one option (again, I may be wrong).

Enjoying this very much, thanks for giving me the opportunity to beta test.

pieth, Make sure to comment on things in the Beta Forum and not in the open forums here. I'm going to delete your comments here.

Thanks.

I applied for beta testing quite some time ago.
I just noticed that the beta key went into my spam folder in November. I will finally try to start testing now and apologize for the delay.

@Rgeiger - We should be releasing a major update at the end of the month and getting everyone fired up and testing heavy again with that. Fresh eyes on everything is always a plus for us. Please read up on the threads in the beta forum and let us know if you have any problems getting set up.

Hi,

I just checked 'my page' and it says that I am part of the beta for Southern Storm. Like other persons, it seems that I never received the mail (checked the spam folder of course). Clicking on 'go to forums' brings up a message that I am not authorised to read that forum.

Any ideas how I should proceed?

Thanks!

Your best bet would be to contact our support team at support@matrixgames.com to have them double-check your status with the Assistant Producer managing the beta recruitment.
