The writer of the FAQ says, “Pausing the game and issuing orders would ruin it. We actually did useability tests on live subjects, with a pause feature in the game. We saw the players issue a lot of orders, let the game run for maybe 10 seconds, pause, issue more orders, etc. This destroyed the whole feel of the game. Its also totally unworkable for 2-player network games. If you feel the game is moving too quickly, try slowing it down from the options menu."
I just bought CC4 (Bulge) from GOG, and you can pause the game by pressing F3. You can’t move the map view or give orders, of course, so it’s essentially a bathroom-break pause.
In August of 2004, Zappi, Homba, Bambam887, RedScorpion and MOOXE all pitched
in to create this Close Combat site. I would to thank all the people who have visited
and found this site to thier liking. I hope you had time to check out some
of the great Close Combat mods and our forums. I'd also like to thank
all the members of our volunteer staff that have helped over
the years, and all our users that contributed to this site!
