Thats exactly what I wanted to hear :D Think its going to be a great game!

Is it possible to take over and island by sitting in the comfort of the bridge sipping a cup of tea while using the map and directing drones to attack, defend, drop packages etc? Or do you have to take control of vehicles and do a lot of it by hand as you wont be able to do the fancy actions other then in person? Or is it a case of if you have to get a job done properly then you need to do it your self as the AI can be a bit..errm..special?

Just wandering how this works in the game? In the original you were controlling the drones remotely from the ship, are you controlling a robot that drives the vehicle? or is that actually you? Does this mean you can walk around the carrier too?

Just wandering if it will be like the original and you actually sail between the islands, or will it be like mass effect 2 and you see a little ship icon move around in crummy 2D? With all the impressive GFX going into the game I really hope its the former and truly feel like a captain of a ship.

I just came across this Website and its quite literally just made my year!(so far) I used to play carrier command on the Amiga and found it an amazingly enjoyable game(not to mention it took 15 seconds to load from floppy which was pretty cool). And now to see that Bohemia Interactive who gave us ARMA and the original OFP are remaking it with multiplayer and improved GFX is fantastic! But with the way games are going these days such as C&C4 and AVP3 removing LAN(for reasons beyond me) and simplifying gameplay to as I belive give players instant gratification at the expense of strategy because it takes too long thus removing the euphoria of a long and hard struggle to the top! (nothing can beat the feeling of crushing your opponent after a few hours of game play by eventually out thinking them). So im hoping when creating this, you don't give in to the pandering of the vocal minority who want a 5 minute game and continue on your path of creating an excellent remake. Thanks Rob
