Apocalypse 31 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 If you enjoy modern warfare then absolutely. I'm weary of the stock missions though. the maps are too small, and modern weaponry has such range that it makes any kind of maneuver nearly impossible. However, the random mission generator is great - especially when you can customize every vehicle in your formation. One day I wish for SB to have infantry as capable as CM for purposes of commanding and movement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpow66m Posted October 20, 2015 Author Share Posted October 20, 2015 hhhhmmmm,good point.ill think on that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 the maps are too smallAbsolutely and were in CM:SF too.But they have "technical issues" with applying the level of detail / clutter to realistic maps.Also there are issues with scenario loading times, etc. with larger maps.Its really only good for PL or PL(+) but people want to squeeze BGs/TFs in there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted October 20, 2015 Members Share Posted October 20, 2015 ...because in the original Combat Mission series you could easily fit an entire infantry battalion plus some armor detachments into a scenario. Since Shock Force they have considerably downscaled that in the pursuit of a (needless, IMO) real-time mode. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryOwen Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Have they yet figured out how to code the stowing of Bradley missile launchers? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
