Suddently i'm feeling to download the game and indulge in reminiscences of the old MechWarrior, loved it. :)

Good to hear, I'm still carry these informations further in diff. forums. But one question remains for me, why did you release the game that early in that stage? I mean it can't be useful for BIS to release such titel and get many serious critics about the game which could means lower sales. I don't want to nag at BIS but as customer I don't understand the release politics of the independent developer, BIS.

Two new Reviews: http://www.gamestar.de/spiele/carrier-command-gaea-mission/test/carrier_command_gaea_mission,47009,3005646,fazit.html http://www.computerbase.de/artikel/spiele/2012/test-carrier-command-gaea-mission/ Same with more or less the same conclusion: The AI is such critical broken as often as it is to BIS games that the game is partly unplayable. (by Gamestar) Shame and no good advert on the german market but it's brought it all on BIS. Maybe we get some retests after some patches. ;)

New Interview about the Standalone: http://www.vg247.com/2012/10/08/dayz-standalone-interview-selfishness-breeds-success/

Really nice idea. :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1988

ToxLaximus is right in a certain way. I mean BIS iniated a P&C for a certain reason because of bug fixing and finding issues for tackle. And as I remember as the P&C starts many reviewers said that the AI has massive pathfinding problems. Now BIS is pressured by the community and anything goes faster. Actually Dram announced that they found a solution for this critical issue. The question is why can't BIS resolve theses issues before the release if it goes that fast ? Is it the BIS way of living? (Its still the same since ArmA) Beside the fact that BF and COD has other focuses, as well as focused on mainstream gamers. And to be honest many of the old CC-player are still satisfied with the gamw, which stands to reason. But this didn't excused the bad release quality.

We don't know the hierarchy of the infamous BIS-System, logical for me the moderators are the guys how create such theards but otherwise primary Korneel‎ seems to be the PR-guy overall at BIS or is it Dram ? How knows...

Okay, added the Link, thanks for the note.

Me too. Added your Mirror. ;) Tested the demo and I'm bound to say, CC:GM seems to be a really nice game. It's a fresh variety of the normal style games. I also liked the FPS part which is very good introduction in the handling and the story-gameplay. Shame that the strategicpart isn't that extensive. On the otherside, as often reported, the AI has much pathfinding issues and some controlling functions didn't worked properly. (e.g. before the enemy carrier arrived and you forced the manta to dock on your carier because of health and fuel, the AI didn't get managed the introductions) Therefore, still waiting and observing the development and if the initial issues get fixed I will go for it. :) Btw. @BIS did you get a longliving licence on the antique Gameinstaller ? It's still the same since OFP.

Ofcause I hate the community :rolleyes: It was just cynical note about your decision to delete your wonderful list of the - confirmed - or what ever - features. But hey why anticipate about ArmA 3 ? Or is it just the community ? :D

Congrats Fox, the design needs to get used but good to hear that CC:GM has now a community venue.

Would it be possible to make a deeper forumstructure for Carrier Command, e.g like Arma ones? You lose completely the track of the threads.

ok, nice so the thread makes no sense anymore. Unstick and close? :)

Just it addition to my previus post in a dif. theard. Don't know that you used steam, so okay this seems to be a really seriuos problem.... :( (Bad to hear)

And again, did you try Patch 1.02 ? http://www.carriercommand.com/updates/

Did you try the 1.02 Patch? http://www.carriercommand.com/updates/ To be honest, the communication of BIS in this situation leaves much to be desired. Where is the link on the frontpage? Where is the announcement on Facebook/twitter? But maybe its the game in the game to find the update by oneself.

hmmm, the eurogamer vid isn't still working for me. That's right, but judging from several other comments on dif. forums, he shouldn't lose sight of the gaming/endgame aspect. I mean it's really difficult to work several months on a game, release an alpha with the basics of bug fixing and release the deeper gameplay aspects just step by step. Like throw individual stones to the users and they shall build their own home with it. I fear that wouldn't be satisfying but may i'm wrong.

Hi are there any reviews out there ? The only one that I'm actually found is the retro one posted on the Facebook page. http://www.carriercommand.com/retro-reviews.html

New news regarding the Standalone. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-09-27-dayz-standalone-release-this-year-says-dean-hall Further tops for the Standalone: - Hackers - Bugs - Performance The Question is if he realize that the playerbase also want new content and endgames, as well as goals to reach. Regarding the Release: also nice detail shame that the stream is still in progress but for further infos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=-Ktffj7TNVo

Perfect, thanks for your reply Dram.

Hi Fox, yes, especially as an RTS-Games need alot of explanation. The paper-thing is mostly a matter of taste, but you are right above all that every not printed paper is a benefit for the nature ;)

But the question is, will BIS provide a real professional and userfriendly manual within the release ?

Ah now I understand: you seems to be the guy who make such decisions, right ? or was it him: And your arguments are so clear and sheer like a milky window. ;) @Chortles Sorry i've forgot it. :)

The lead lead lead master programmer? Lead Master Mind behind the RV Engine? The 1/2'th of the big boss? The 1/2'th of the Spanel Brothers? :D ? Jesus! No, Alpha should be free for all, without pre-oder bonus. ;) Everything else will be a real big loss of confidence and very disappointing.

I think a free to play alpha for everyone would be a nice christmas present. ^^
