It's kinda sad, Indeed. When I paid 9$ (which actuall was only 7$ back then, because $ was worth more) for CC5, I paid for a game that was made 6 programmers.
If I bought just CC5 after it was released, I would pay 21$ for a new part of CC that was made by 6 programmers.

Having to pay 39.99$ + tax for a game that was made one or less programmer is a joke.

One of the big problems with CC is the schism between AI at different levels.

There were many programmers for CC5 , but they didn't talk to each other.

The Program tries to make decisions and fights against it's self because the different levels of AI control don't communicate properly and give multiple self negating commands.

Steve has been looking at the code and generally doing a great job of untangling the mess.

Out of curiosity, why weren't the programmers listed in the credits?

No Idea

The ppl who made those decisions are no longer involved.

EDIT: The Head of Developement - Steve McClaire was head programmer - that's industry talk programmer = Developer

Seem still to be there... As I see some CC5 mods has equal or better playing or harder AI then COI. So in a compare COI AI is not impressing IMHO...

.

You mean sort of like the infight at Simtec while developing COI? Lucky for you that just you came out as one of the few survivors...

Okay Steve the Simtec/COI programmer focus on untangling the cod, hard and time consuming for a programmer no doubt... Maybe In contrast the Atomic crew WHO ACTUALLY made the cod.....

Sweat days of Atomic, days to be rememberd!
