8 Player Lan play is no longer supported.

Does this mean that this is not available or just not supported by HTC?

The Shermans Turret is extremely Slow on the Vertical Axis much Slower than an 8 inch Gun on The Battleship. I believe HTC has there First Bug with the new Update.

- Check your video settings (in game), max texture size should be 1024

- if you have vista, did you install both game and hires pack: "run as administrator"?

Ok i have tried to bite my tongue but i cannot.  With all due respect and treading lightly... I appreciate the work HTC does and still very much enjoy the game after all these years... but why have we only had the T34/85 added in the last half year since the last update, when the update before we had 4 new items added?  Hidden CT work maybe?  Multi screen support was a lot of trouble?  Would love to know.

See here from another thread:

We're looking at ways to implement that style of play into something that we can host on our servers.

I tried the new 262 out today.

Ripped the wings off twice, which I've never done before, ever.  Maybe I'm just extra dweeby today, who knows.  The canopy framing really obscures the forward view, so I regretfully prefer the old cockpit.

What exactly does this mean?  "Ostwind and Wirbelwind track damage is no longer reversed."

Also, "You can now rearm your own bomber when you take drones. Note that if you still have surviving drones when you rearm, they will neither rearm nor take off again."  Will the drones count as a succesful landings or will they sit there waiting to be shot while you're away?  If they sit there will they be succesful landings once you land, even if at another airfield?
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

I'm with Furball on this.  I've never cried about when this or that is coming out, always been appreciative of the fine product HTC gives us, but frankly I'm very dissapointed with this new update.

Unless there is an all out effort to finally finish Combat Tour (I pray so), there just can't be an explanation why in 6 months we get virtually nothing new.  Basically just a turret on a tank, a cool new tri-monitor setup that ony a handfull can use, and some basic bug fixes.  It just doesn't add up to me, unless CT is taking full priority.  But since we haven't seen or heard anything about CT in years, who knows...

I've always given HTC the benefit of the doubt, but I'm starting to wane on that...

Just a simple update on the progress of CT would do it for me though.
