You're fast! I was about to come here to post that link!
I'd also like to mention we have a gameplay trailer in the works to shed more light on Panthers in the Fog |

If all of the things they mention in the interview are present and functional in the new system, then PITF will become a must game for all of us. But the same might be said for the 3D game, which may make me wait for it.
And, its not really a CC thing, but now days, I wait a full 1 to 2 years before I purchase any new titles. I am just in no rush anymore.
And then this from the inteview
Finally, we’ve made some improvements to the AI opponent will help make it a bit more of a challenge. The AI in previous releases was not very good matching its objectives at the strategic level with its planning and fighting at the tactical level. Now the tactical level AI will be more focused on capturing or holding victory locations (ground) that helps it accomplish its strategic movement goals.
So does all this mean that road Victory Locations are more important to the AI than in previous titles.
I never really had a problem with the AI defending or attacking Victory Locations, because I use CCMT. AI works great, IMHO. |

Sounds great! I especially liked the part about mortars. The instant response of mortars in CC is generally quite annoying, and in mods where mortars are especially very powerful this tends to hinder any mobility instantly. I hope that the new mortar system works as they say. |

I'm assuming you mean the community interview from the Wargamer? The one we just posted is more of a pointed developer interview, the community one is sure to follow |

Since it seems you are on top of this, perhaps you wouldn't mind supplying answers to Schrecken's Wargamer questions here at CCS, in advance. If I remember correctly, I don't think they were very difficult questions.
The one we just posted is more of a pointed developer interview ... -ScottP
Yea, for some reason, it didn't seem to have a real inteview look and feel to it. |

GA date I thought was December but then I heard they were going to bump it up to this month?
Are the developers from Slitherine in the UK contributing their developers exclusively to production?
Too late I'm sure for any major changes...but for the next release with new engine would like to see some feature of CC Mods incorporated such as the Grossdeutchland mod with 10 man AI infantry teams with aggressive tactics. Or variable / unpredictable tactic such as ambush in strategic points, flanking maneuvers , mass assaults, etc. The GD mod from CCIII was truly a masterpiece. |

I am getting the feeling that this Game is going to do 'us' proud?
Expectations or hope can get squashed upon...
Funny how sometimes when you least expect 'stuff' you get delightfully surprised!
Question is... which one is this ?

I guess what i was trying to 'say' is I haven't bought any of the "ReDo" lastest versions of close combat... believe you me.. i wanted to but the feedback was a mite negative. Glad i didn't. Harsh to say, but true.
However, I am really wanting to Buy ! ANYthing at the moment..... and this newest game's timing seems perfect. Everyone old and new Close Combat players are primed and ripe and ready... i think or at least hope so.
:)
God help us.

Thanks for the link MF_Church. I am going to buy it even if it includes all the frustrations of the previous releases. I noticed a new blown up tank graphic (turret sitting next to the hull), new explosion effects, the fog, new interface etc. Plenty of reasons for purchasing Or might the reason be that I am a hopeless collector of the series |

It will probably be received like most of the Matrix releases....
Some will be happy just a for a new CC with some changes while others will feel it shouldn't change or there isn't enough changes.... |
