Pre-orders are open for the Halfghanistan map. I was surprised and disappointed by some of the omissions from the included geography, but who am I kidding? I'll get it.

Apparently, eastern and northern Afghanistan are in the works. It is not clear to me whether there will be separate charges for these maps or if they will come with the initial SW purchase. Based on the store page, this initial module can be purchased for $23.99 now, or you can pay $48.99 for the entire map now. Both prices are reduced for EA.

Quote from: Destraex on Yesterday at 07:49:43 PMOk no multiplayer, although if it ever comes it will be my prefered wego style and I assume only one friend vs another. This game still will not make my list. Even cmx2 has multiplayer.

AB2 is based on the same foundation as the previous game, and the code structure (a work in progress since ~2005) doesn't allow multiplayer to be added easily. At the moment we don't have resources for such a monumental rework.

Quote from: Destraex on Yesterday at 07:42:53 PMI would love to know what the height maps are handled like this time around and if they need a separate screen to judge height with. I really hated that about the first game.

In the new rendering engine you can take the camera down to the ground and see terrain elevation in a way that was impossible in AB1.

It doesn't address it specifically, but the press release does say they will continue to support their titles, including CoH3, so it would appear they are keeping their existing licenses.

The start of a new era. I wonder how much money a company that is thrown to the wolves is worth and how much fluidity it has in it's cash flow?

Relic is solo again. Parting from SEGA. Fingers crossed we lose all the baggage and get down to business proper. Perhaps some of the ridiculousness of the past 10yrs will be reversed. DOW3 I am lookin at you. COH3 you are better but need a shot in the arm badly.
Perhaps SEGA will let CA loose now and we might get back the old Total WAR!!! We might even get some new features and start back at shogun2 afresh.

We went over the plans for the Lua Scripting video. Now is definitely the time to chime in if you have any thoughts or comments. I will be starting it tomorrow or Friday. Otherwise, the attack into Jerusalem is going well, mostly without a hitch. I give a perfect example of dealing with pillboxes that is worth a lesson indeed! Our Sherman's are definitely no match for the Patton's the Jordanians have, so I'm going to have to take them out by some other means.
