#1: Lack of movies.. Author: godsmackrrc, Posted: Thu Jan 24, 2013 10:16 am — Hi guys!
Just started playing the historical grand campaign.
And i realized something seems to be missing - the movies/collage of historic clips etc. i used to love in other CC games.
There doesn't even seem to be an introduction clip for starting the campaign..
Am i doing something wrong, or have they scraped this feature entirely?
i think the historic movies kept you immersed in the campaign feeling.. "Hell's highway is cut in several point..", "Gen HQs remains out of contact for the crucial hours.." etc.
PS: Btw, i think this would be the 1st game i play that wouldn't have any sort of animation outside the gameplay. Even games on diskettes had some sort of intro..

Author: hellblazer, Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 8:13 pm — I wouldn't miss the lack of animation, only the black and white WW 2 footage from close combat 3 and 2 with the narrators saying, "The Russian front ignites on June 6th 1941. Germany unleashes a blitzkrieg (lighining war) against russia. Whole Entire russian army groups are encircled and captured..etc." Close combat 2 had the most. I loved the encyclopedia with weapon descriptions and stats and a small video of the weapon or vehicle in use.
