GC 44 West?

[naughtybalrog]

Why is there not an announcement for the upcoming PzC GC releases in "Coming Soon" or anywhere for that matter?

I see other games with projected release dates into 2013; yet, PzC GC 44 West was hinted to be coming out in Nov 2012 and no listing? Given the stat that PzC Forum Posts are substantially higher than any other Forum game, seems that there is somebody besides me who would like to know... Even a "sticky" Forum post would be better than nothing. Gives the impression that no one is home...
I can appreciate the fact that ya'll may be busy with closed beta testing; however, we, the loyal fan base, are as worthy as the other game loyalists.

We haven't started yet the close beta testing. It will start soon.

Take your time, I haven't even started GC 39 yet... you produce these things faster than I can play them

[Longasc]

Now I wish this would ever happen to a MMO: More new content than you can play before the next expansion comes!

[KeldorKatarn]

If this keeps up that is certainly what happens to me I own all DLCs except the West one (no money right now due to moving) and haven't had a chance to play most of them yet hehe. NOt that I'm complaining. It's a great feeling to know I have sooo much more unseen content lying around waiting for me. And once I'm done with it, there's probably going to be just as much released by then =D

Closed beta started today.

Nice!

Any word on Allied Corps yet?

Great stuff! Can't wait for the official release!

I am a little surprised not to see the Battle of the Bulge in the Scenario list - will it be part of GC 45 ?

Yes. Battle of the Bulge started in '44 but continued well into '45, and from campaign design point of view it made more sense to move it to '45 DLC. Otherwise '44 DLC would need to cover too much, while '45 DLC would be a bit too light-weight.

[mulleto22]

Sure, thats fine I guess. Was just wondering.

Can't wait to defend Monte Cassino with the "Green Devils"...

By the way: Will there be seperate Ghurka units on the allied side like they were back then?

Off topic: The fighting spirit of the Ghurkas seems to be still alive:

Can't wait to play those D-Day scenarios over and over again (especially on Allied side)...

I do this quite often with vanilla.

But there's only one Overlord scenario in PC right now? So are you playing user created scenarios? I'm really looking forward to those smaller scaled beach scenarios (esp. Juno beach).

I just play the Overlord and Italy scenarios as Allies.

You can play a whole campaign that focuses exactly on these Italian and Overlord operations as allies! But you will need the Afrika Korps expansion because some stuff in the mod is based off it. Check out viewtopic.php?f=147&t=38511 I rate this mod as high as the standard DLC content, if not higher.

I tried that a few months ago, but the mod didnt work for some reason. I gave up and deleted it.

The mod was only released on the 22nd of October. Maybe you didn't have AK installed or you're talking about a different mod?

No, I played it a while ago. I'm now assuming it was a beta. I have since reinstalled it, and uninstalled it.

My biggest displeasure is that the animations are not done correctly. You can never tell when a unit is firing, but more importantly you cannot see WHO is firing at you because you cannot see when units are shooting.

I thought the missions were great, but the animations were a deal breaker for me. If this is fixed, it would be great!
