i played the first three close combats when they were new and loved them; i downloaded the longest day last night and have played a few scenarios and am having fun with them.........
one thing that bugs me though is being unable to custom control my zooming; am i missing something, or are there only two zoom levels? i remember being able to zoom with the mouse scroll, so that i could have a view of how my forces were spread out, without all the clicking back and forth........if i am not missing something, i would hope that it is something that could be patched, as it makes gameplay for any strategic simulation, move more fluidly.
the other nitpick that i would have is no smooth scrolling, i believe that i remember that on cc3 as well.
that said, i did buy the game and know that i will enjoy it overall......i was also hoping that if the game's sales are decent, that more good games will come our way.
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!
