Just pre-ordered this, the Combat Mission series rules

I heard it's buggy, undetailed and clunky.

I hate generic game names like that.

I just started playing the original WW2 Combat Missions a few days ago--I still haven't learned how to play them properly, but they seem really cool so far.

Tom Chick just eviscerated the game over at his site.

I loved CM:BO, but I am holding off on this one until stuff is worked out. Thankfully, I've got a metric ton of Civ4 content to play through thanks to the new expansion to sate my bearded-man gaming needs.

I think it looks cool. Needs less shaders though.

Im no means a graphics whore (Wii lover here) but sheeesh. look at it!

The biggest complaints are poor AI, poor pathfinding and it behaves like a dog.

Apparently Battlefront sent out review copies that were version 1.0, which was unstable and bad. By the time it comes out tommorow, there will be a patch out. And they swear the 1.01 patch fixes all of these problems.

After Theatre of War, we'll see.

I'm holding out hope though. The previous Combat Mission games were some of the finest ever created, and I've been waiting years for this one.

It's a hardcore tactics game that isn't intended for the mass market. Compared to its actual peers, it looks outstanding.
