so far I am loving TLD, the muzzle flash bug as described above needs sorting though as it will affect H2H by the sounds of it, especially for good players....

Maaaasive campaign map! madness! Some awesome maps in general too.

I love the fact that CC, the greatest ever PC game (with honourable mention to EVE online) just keeps on going!

Critique I can give, without having played it much, is that the MP40 sound is too powerful and that there's no ambient sound, a la the Stalingrad series of mods.

Having played Stalingrad mods, where there is a constant chorus of off-map shelling, planes, small arms fire etc, going onto silent Normandy beaches is disappointing and detracts from the overall experience.

My brother and I have finally got this game.

We purposely opened up like DDAY went in H2H without first seeing how it was

I am really thrilled at our experience as its exactly how the battle evolved in real life

The night battles are fantastic, its all a new learning experience for us both.

Absolutely the best yet!

If you haven't got it yet, I suggest you find a mate and do it the way we did it.

For practice we only allow oursleves to play original CC5 which comes with TLD

That too, is a new game again, the AI has been tweaked and has much more aggression, No more stopping a rush with 1 mortar.

I'm loving it all over again

Recomended

Sounds like the latest beta patch fixes the muzzle flash bug so the client can see them H2H based on a player's reply (Matrix/S3T missed the fix in their list)....

http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2170720

Here is the list of changes posted:
v5.50.03b – July 14, 2009
• Code fixes
o Fixed bug with display settings where CTD would occur when map size is smaller than users screen resolution.
o Multi-player: Force Morale percentages shown on Debrief screen now identical between host and client in all cases.
o Multi-player: Client now shows correct soldier positions (i.e. Leader, loader, gunner, etc.) in the soldier monitor for active soldiers. Client will show last known position for soldiers that have become casualties, however.
o Multi-player: Entry locations for tactical battles now re-calculated correctly when continuing a game that was saved from the Strategic screen.
o Multi-player: Soldier death animation type now consistent between host and client (i.e. no more shot soldiers shown as burning up on the client).
o Fixed a bug that could cause a crash when starting a new operation or campaign using ‘all clear’ or ‘random’ weather settings.
