Future Patches.....Movie Cam?

[Blackboots]

People have been asking for this since the debut of RTW. My guess is that something about the change from sprites in MTW to the 3D units in RTW and M2TW busted the ability to faithfully record the battlefield action. It's either something they don't want to spend the time and money to fix , or (more likely) they just plain don't know how .

CA did enable the movie cam in RTW in one of their patches (1.2?). So it was in RTW and we did use it. I just wonder if they will enable it for us to use in M2TW as well. If you look at the official CA M2TW trailers, they're made with the movie cam.

The movie cam is different than the replays. You use the movie cam to basically render movies from your replays.

All I need is to be able to go down to the GROUND level i.e to the feet of the soldiers, AND to be able to view the field satelitte style. Nothing more.

would be ace if it reappeared.

i'd love to see reconstructed historical battles from the real TW vets hosted online.

IIRC, though, wasn't the action in the movie different than what you had actually played out during the battle? Like the 'camera' had recorded a sort of battle template which the ai tried to follow when you played it. That's where I was going with the 'faithfully record' bit.
