New Close Combat is great news!
A new Close Combat on the Western Front doesn't feel quite as great, but that's a matter of taste.

I guess I'll just have to keep waiting for an opportunity to fight on the Eastern Front.

Eastern Front would be AWESOME.

It's a shame no one gets that

-No cool private version features because just don't lol.
-No unified CC version with all the old features plus new ones because that's the stupidest thing ever! stop asking for it!
-No easy to use quick battle scenario editor because it is so old! that was for CC2 get with the times grandpa!

It looks like they're trying to make the newer ones as messy as possible ignoring the community as much as possible, maybe then we'll stop asking them for more and better Close Combats.

Goddamn Close Combat Normandy: Electric Boogaloo.

You forgot a few:

-MG42s... MG42s everywhere
-Downgraded multi-player lobby and match-making forums
-Improved Tank mechanics. Now they don't turn in circles and show their bum to the enemy - they show their side instead!
-Plenty of mods by the Close Combat community

Maps I have seen for Operation Epsom looks to me like another shitty strategic map in the making like PiFT.

-Printed Manual? we are trying to make a game here!

I cant poke fun at that one since I'm a printer by trade and unfortunately printed material is going the way of the dodo.

The hair color though,that was awesome.
Maybe we can watch it turn gray as the soldiers experience grows instead of gaining rank.

According to Matrix Game's Twitter page, the new game will be called Close Combat: The Bloody First - but this may be a mistake.

Also, the screenshots on Matrix Forums basically look like Panthers in the Fog. http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3368558

So I guess PitF isn't "the last traditional Close Combat game" like they made it out to be.

Haha, Panther G vs Cromwell IV is everywhere - so dramatical, but unfortunately unrealistic Smile

Funny that a gunner and loader of Cromwell IV forgot of a coaxial BESA Smile

But we should wait and see, could be a good thing - so many good guys are involved Wink

It looks like GJS for PitF.

I guess asking for it to be sold as DLC for PitF is too much uh? hehe

I don't have any.

This is not at all what I thought the game would look like.

I was expecting something like COH graphics.

Agreed, another FUCKING Normandy game. Exclamation

But, I knew it was coming. ITS A GJS SUMMER. Cathartes is the MAN. Laughing

Me thinks they are gonna keep cranking these out 1 per year, until doomsday. Razz

Its like that old TWIGHLIGHT ZONE episode where the cast (thats us) is on a passenger train that keeps arriving at THE SAME STATION. Laughing

@Kanov,
I loved your post. Very funny.

This one and the 3d one are two different games. If you read the twitts at the first post you will see that The Wargamer is talking bout two different games.

But yes, It's a real shame they are still pointing at Normandy.

Whoops,
My bad.
I thought they said after PiFT we were getting a new 3D game

At this point I'd have to say this is just down right embarrassing to watch.

Kinda like reading all of Stwa's post about how great CCMT all these years only to watch him drop the ball when somebody actually wants help in the modding forums and Stwa totally missed it. Laughing
