My wishes for the to-do list.

... make it "playable" but only the loader's position ...

... (and the occasional gunner's arm).

:-):-):-)

[Ssnake]

Or they could really mess with him and make it "playable" but only the loader's position.

Just think hours sitting there watching the mechanism load rounds (and the occasional gunner's arm).

That gives me an idea for an easter-egg, if the player's name contains the string "gibson"...:1:

[Stratos]

I doubt Ssnake plays this kind of game, I believe him about the T72 non being in this update. I will be happy with a gunner station only. But lets wait for the update list and see what it adds.

Ah well someone removed that limitation when they described Australian’s as:

...clad in assless leather chaps and hockey masks, I know.

Seriously though, I am working on the basis that both comments (Ssnake’s and mine) were meant in good humour.

[Ssnake]

Of course.

[mpow66m]

Man i hope they get a crewable T-72 for Stratos soon,i think im startin to feel bad for the fella.

[Steel_Hamster]

This thread has gone from a hated one to the one where people post wishes. I'm proud I started it.

Looking forward to new terrain with more details and a modable database of houses and buildings! But take your time.

Thanks for the simpathy, let's wait and see what really adds the expansion, we are on the Ssnake hands right now.

[Speedy]

We reduced the price recently so those of you who buy it shortly before the new release won't have to pay more than the regular price.

Am I reading this correctly?

I just reinstalled SBProPE after a break of a couple of years and just yesterday spent $30 ordering the 2.460 upgrade, now this sounds to me that in a couple of months I will have to fork out more money for the latest patch??

Hang on a second....

The T-72 has a 3 man crew.

If you were the 'loader' all you'd see would be the ass end of a 125mm shell casing, (and in occasional graphic detail a severed arm).

That's one way of phrasing it. The other is that since the release of 2.460 in March 2009 (which will be 17 months by the time that 2.5x will be released) we added lots and lots of new stuff, and ... hey, we got to make a living too.

I guess you could just as well search this discussion forum for "2.4x upgrade". It doesn't seem that there are a lot of new arguments in this old debate.

Our plan is to release every 12 to 18 months an update for $25.- for those that order early. In this case, with a 17 month interval, that amounts to $1.47 per month. I don't know about you, but that doesn't appear to me as cut-throat capitalism.

So you have only just worked out what I said?

Isn't "all you'd see would be the ass end of a 125mm shell casing, (and in occasional graphic detail a severed arm)." the same as "watching the mechanism load rounds (and the occasional gunner's arm)"

Maybe I didn't phrase my comment right I have no problem with what you are saying above.

I may have got the false impression that the new upgrade would not require the previous 2.460 paid upgrade to work - In which case I was a little annoyed that I could have waited a few weeks and just bought the new upgrade and saved myself the $30.

However having read what you have wrote above I get the impression that the new upgrade will be a 2.460 to 2.5x update and will require the previously purchased 2.460 upgrade - Which I have no problem with.

I'm not browsing the forums on a daily basis (as much as I like, its too sunny outside to camp by the computer all day.)

Isn't "all you'd see would be the ass end of a 125mm shell casing, (and in occasional graphic detail a severed arm)." the same as "watching the mechanism load rounds (and the occasional gunner's arm)"

That's open for debate, however, your phrasing implies a outside view of the auto-loader.

Yes, I am that picky.

Back to the wish-list:

(getting nervous given the upcoming upgrade)

* Numero uno:

Have the ability to tell a computer-controlled mech platoon to go to a place, dismount, then have the computer-controlled infantry go one way and the vehicles another.

And of course have the ability to make these computer-controlled units team up again on another waypoint, where the vehicles load up again the infantry.

* Also Numero uno: M109 Howitzer

Even better, firing M109's !

Rgds, K

[Tacbat]

* Also Numero uno: M901

Even better, firing M901's !

Don't we already have that?

[Koen]

I meant M109 ...

not M901

Corrected - THX, K

[mpow66m]

crewable 901s would be cool as heck though!

Ah two Main Efforts - always good.

[Hedgehog]

Well we do have the Mech Arty Placeholder.

(Squint a bit.)

:biggrin:

[Tafio]

All in eye candy but what about a in game antialiasing option?

For ATI 4k+ and Win7 couple :clin:

[Skoop]

What about a dynamic campaign system like falcon 4.0 but for tanks instead of F16s? You can play single player of multi player...... I know it's far fetched request but think of the sim euphoria it would create. The dynamic campaign is what keeps a dated sim like falcon still good today.

I like the idea. Though the sim isn't intended for this and it would be pretty far down on the priority list I think it would be cool!

[ashdivay]

I want a BMP3, Old Centurion and M48 Patton tanks.

Also Mortar teams mounted and foot.

Civilian vechs ,Neutral side, Police Car and a Jeep.
