Hopefully like the previous Sudden Strike games this won't have a base building system, a feature I hated about Blitzkrieg 3.

Well, base building makes any game less strategic. The loss of certain units is not that tragic because one can rebuild them.
Sudden Strike 4 will not have that "feature".

Base building serves it purpose and can be very nice (See Dawn of War games), but yeah, "Sheit, there goes my KV-1" is an entirely different feeling than "Sheit, gotta collect more resources to get me a new KV-1".
It all boils down to what you like, personally, I enjoyed all (BK and CoH series - Not BK3 though, as it seems to be on the 'spammy strategic games' side).
Sudden strike 4 certailnly looks promising, and if it is as moddable as BK, it just might be my game for the next 10-15 years. Alnogside with BK, that is.
Here's to hoping, thanks for bringing this up.

Lets cross our fingers for a decent WW2 game. Would be very nice after so many years of waiting... I am a "Blitzkrieger" since the release of the demo (gotta love that Mörser Karl ) but well, it's about time for something new. |

Quoting the anouncement text: " Meanwhile, there are nine individual commanders, such as George Patton and Bernard Montgomery, each of whom has unique abilities".
Well, I certainly not choose to play as "Monty", since that vain creature messed up one too many.. But it's an "Unique ability" thats for sure.
Still as I commented earlier this week on the announcement of this game: it again looks rediculous with the short ranges and visiblity; fog of war.
Why gameproducers not choose a real new approach, questions me. They try to bring variation in the subject WWII games, by introducing characters etc, but still its on the 'safe side' of gameproduction.
Do these guys ever do research on other games, and fora, like ours? Not for the one or another, but here we have 'WWII wargame veterans who can come up with many splendid ideas.
Why invent the wheel again and again?

Let us not forget about this other game that is in development: www.tacticalartofcombat.com/ARTCOM/portal.php |

I think there has to be done more to make this game worth it.
Germans must speak German and not English.
Line of sight and weaponranges are stupid.
Effects from collapsing buildings must be done better, now it looks like they sink into the ground.
What is frustrating is the fact, like in BK III the game visuals are plendid en detailed. The game itself sucks time and time again.

I agree with you. The german units should speak german.
I hope that there will be at least a mapeditor with the game. Line of sight and weapon ranges are also stupid in Blitzkrieg, the only thing which was good at release referring to that was the artillery. Always loved it to shell the enemy positions. Well, the press believed that to be boring and stupid...
Anyway we will see quite soon.
