Man, CM is probably still the most played game ever for me. I loved that game, was very involved in its patching and continuing development.

Does the new version have Assault Move? That was my idea!

Weren't you involved in dealing with turret speeds during development in the forums?  I remember that from somewhere.  Or maybe I just dreamt it.

Yeah, I argued for quite a while that the data they had for German Panther and Tiger turret rotation speeds were wrong based on a incorrect bit of information they were using.

I feel like playing CMBB again. Any way to play it in proper widescreen resolution these days?

It made a rather huge difference!

The Panther tank had a hydraulic turret rotation motor, but it was hooked up to the engine of the tank, so it only had as much power as the engine gave it.

If the engine was idling at 1000rpm, it took 46 seconds to rotate the turret through 360 degrees. At 3000rpms however, it could rotate in 15 seconds.

They had it set so that the turret always took 46 seconds though. Which was a huge disadvantage in any close range fight.

I should reload CM:BB and watch a Russian battalion melt away because a 81mm shell landed within a mile of it.

Fucking slavs.

Matrix Games. :bleeding:  Home of the not-quite-fully-baked biscuit.

Never regretted turning down that job offer from them 15 years ago :lol:

We'll never see Grand Theft Auto: Taco Truck now.  :cry:

Have they fixed the sniper-AT guns taking your tanks out the moment they peak out from behind cover on the opposing end of the map?

?? unsure what you mean here. The last scenario I played (1st SS Breakthrough 5 July '43) my Tigers, which I usually position in overwatch, were picking off T-34's at over 1200 meters.

Kept the Tigers at range supporting and the only thing that hurt them was minefields and the fucking luftwaffe  :mad: .
