Recon planes (and other area missions) launch as a single group instead of individual planes that will cover a much larger area

The only reason I had considered an upgrade was that the old one had annoying third party online activation that didn't work unless I kept loading the game a dozen times until it finally took. On the other hand, I bought the Matrix HCE version and have been fairly happy with it. Far less bugs, interface is way more friendly especially at high resolutions. Perhaps when I have plenty of money to blow I'll get the newest version, but I don't foresee that happening as it'll likely only give me more Harpoon ANW(3) frustrations again. __________________________ Are you brave enough for 640kb?

DimitrisCenturion Posts : 42 Joined: 30 APR 2010 Status : Offline | Command is coming together very well. We recently released two more videos with a B-2A airfield attack and AL-1 airborne lasers shooting down ballistic missiles. We are currently implementing minefields. There is a Q&A explosion on our Command forum the last few days, be sure to check it out.

I know you're inching for yet another 100-post flame fest Herman but frankly you've become irrelevant to us. We have our own gig and yes it's coming together beautifully. It's nice to actually build something instead of constantly bitching about existing issues - not that you'd know anything about the latter we're sure []. So keep at your private little war with AGSI/MG while the rest of us move ahead. Cheers [sm=00000436.gif]

Herman: Yawn...
Everyone else: Last night we had a major new breakthrough. Those of you who have been long waiting for individual mines (in games of this niche) with realistic underwater shock damage, are due for a treat.

Everyone else:
1) The Q&A fest on the Command forum continues; join-in and make your voice heard.
2) As part of our research in EMP effects & weapons, I need to consult with someone reasonably knowledgeable on the subject on some technical details. Anyone interested please contact me by PM. Thanks!

Herman HumCenturionPosts : 888 Joined: 28 JUL 2006 Location: 0 Status : Offline | Since you have dismally failed to hijack this thread and re-direct it towards discussion of your own game, isn't it time to declare victory and crawl back to your blog?

DimitrisCenturionPosts : 42 Joined: 30 APR 2010 Status : Offline | The aim of my posts here was simple; to provide an update on the progress of Command (since others well before me mentioned it on this thread; there goes down your "hijack" argument...) and to inform about the Q&A process and the EMP request. But of course you had to jump in and make a mess of things as usual.
Having done what I came to do, I can simply resume working on Command. You know, actually building stuff instead of playing tennis and seeking "victory" on forum threads. Feel free to carry on with your quest for Forum Dominance (TM) - just don't hurt your palm patting yourself in the back.

p.s. For everyone's amusement, Herman's original post above was "Any time you want to throw your crap, I'll be right here to rub your nose in it and make you eat it". Let us all wish him a Bon Appetit, shall we? [] |

Herman HumCenturionPosts : 888 Joined: 28 JUL 2006 Location: 0 Status : Offline | Yes, that's definitely the excuse you should cling to as you declare victory for failing to hijack the discussion towards your own game.

spelkCommander Posts : 1666 Joined: 19 FEB 2009 Location: UK Status : Offline | I didn't know there was so much drama and hostility surrounding the Harpoon title. I think most wargamers would just embrace whatever naval combat titles are out there, regardless of differences between modders and developers alike.

Although that was 20+ years ago, it makes you wonder how many of those former enthusiasts need to be wooed back if the game were in a functional state.
