Re: ATG/AAA/etc, No Optics? Wpn Controls?
Of course, relative spotting was not the cure-all everyone said it was. I even predicted what would happen. That is, people would just abuse the ability to jump back and forth between units to get intel to make decisions for a single unit. Steve scoffed at this like it was pure insanity that anyone would do it. The reality is that some people actually not only do it for vision purposes, but some even do it for auditory reasons! The movie-playback, when viewed in the non-selected unit mode, is even worse! It collates ALL relative spotting and animates it in a "VCR" type control for the player to further abuse!
But, as we all know now, Steve is a visionary who can predict future wars. That is, they predict future wars that involve the US Army that never have happened as time goes by. Just the general location. And, of course, never forget they are the bestest-guessers ever!
To be fair, I think it was the opposite. Namely, CMx1 was a "dead end" because it didn't have relative spotting. Relative Spotting was the Battlefront-Cry actually for CMx2.But, if they ever do go for multi-processor use over at BF, you can be sure this will be touted to the ends of the Earth. Wasn't relative sighting 'baloney' when CM didn't have it?
