Questions about MOD
« on: May 18, 2010, 01:00:56 AM »
I have to say that this is a great MOD. Thank you very much for making this. I was wondering if there is a way for the Russians to build MG nests, command post on top of points to get more resources, and MG teams. Also what is this about the Oshteer (I think that's how you spell it   :-\ ) I guess it's not out yet? Also what is the latest patch? thanks for all the help, and thanks for the great MOD! God Bless  :D

Hi there Jason7377 and thanks for posting and to answer your questions:

*Yes russians can build MG nests if you choose the propoganda doctrine.
*No the russians do not have any kind of command posts.
*No the russians do not have a dedicated MG team.
*The Ostheer is another new german faction being developed right now but we probably won't see them any time in the short term future.
*The current patch is 1.04 but a new patch 1.10 is comming soon.

Hope this has helped for you

The MG teams I guess would come from upgrading weapons for the squad.

You can upgrade Strealky to have a Light Machine Gun but there is no dedicated MG team.

Outposts double as Command Posts in the next patch, MG nests are only part of the Propaganda Doctrine and there are no MG team right now although there may be in the future as a reward replacement unit.

Ostheer is a new German army that is equipped specifically with Eastern Front flavoured gear. It will have plenty of new vehicles and units just like the Soviets do.

We've said this about 1 billion times...when its bloody done! But, since you insist and clearly we'll see about another gazillion times the same question cause you just won't be satisfied unless you see some sort of number...

I'd say....about one and a half year personally.Is it an accurate estimate?-NO! But there you have it. You wanted an estimate, now you have one.
No but/why/how and all that malarkey...you wanted an estimate...there it is...So, stop asking now!

An accurate announcement can only ever be made roughly 1 month before we intend to release it. Anything before that changes dramatically from month to month. We may not get anything significant done in a space of 4-5 months and so a release date can appear very far.....the all the sudden we may do fuck loads in a space of 1 month and all the sudden a release may appear very close.
We don't have a rigid plan/timescale to which we work, therefore it is impossible to make any even remotely accurate estimate on time.
Hence why we say WHEN ITS DONE

Got take a leap of faith and do a pure guess:

1 & 2, hell no.
3 & 6, both very unlikely, however 3 is probably more probable then 6 (counting the summer vacation is coming up for a lot).
So probably 4 or 5 => 6-12 months from now.

That's my guess. But please read @up

Never say never........or white trash at some one, that gets you a fist full of fury from anyone nearby.  So i'd rather say never.
