The Blood First's focus is different than previous games. You will be leading a rifle company (plus attachments) through several major campaigns, rather than fighting a single operation, ordering large units around at the strategic level. So the new game will be much more focused on the tactical combat. |

That brings us to the Bloody First. A brand new 3D version (Unity 3D) of Close Combat, designed in such a way you will still feel like your playing the classic Close Combat, or so they say! The Bloody First is the US 1st Division who fought through Tunisia, Sicily and Normandy. You will be able to play through all three campaigns. Another huge difference will be this campaign mode, it will be more CC3 style than CC5, and it will be down to the platoon level vice company. The campaign may have what Steve McClaire calls, `triggers` and `decision points.` That is to say if you meet certain criteria in a battle, you may be faced with decisions on where to go next, or the game will put you into action again. Along with a new engine there will be new AI, new pathfinding, maps... you name it. A partially destructible environment may be implemented. Think about the game Breach by Atomic in 2009, that was their main selling point. Modability is also being taken into account. The long awaited engine sound feature will finally be implemented, with an on/off switch. Lets hope this feature comes with the added feature of the default setting being off. This will be the 13th version of Close Combat with no multiplayer support beyond 1v1 ---disappointing! Release date, sometime in 2014. |

Let's not forget that many of us thought "Sudden Strike" was going to be an exciting game before it's release as well and it also allowed the player to command large amounts of men. We might wait until more information trickles down after that major disappointment. |

That's hilarious. Any mention of a star wars character is sure to get Nomada involved with the game. |

Lately I was making one for Panthers in the Fog but unfortunately, Panthers in the Fog is not a good game for modding, I find it very unfriendly. |

There will be ragdolls for when a soldier is hit. |

I haven't heard it, but it must be that way if they are going to use ragdoll physics. If they are the current size nobody would be able to see the difference. |

I was hoping for something like this. http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3234740&mpage=1&key=� Specially since Mana is working on "The bloody first" too. It may be that way but the current screenshots of TBF are too small to notice any detail. |
