What is the real difference between BCM & BCMG?

Hi

Quick question. Have been playing BCM for a while. Is BCMG much different than BCM, graphics updated, new crafts etc? Or is it essentially BCM with all patches and multiplayer support. BCMG has only just made it to the shelves at my local vid store. It's valued at $69 so I want to ensure that I am not paying hard won money for essentially the same game. Unfortunately I wont be able to take advantage of the MP function (dial up in AUS..to slow) so that is not a buying point for me.

Cheers

Thanks for the reply. Well done

I read the description of BCM but I was hoping you could add a bit more detail to it. It mentioned, updates numerous improvements and upgrades as well as new unique features and enhancements with MP & new planets etc which is fine but I am looking for more. If you read my question again, it's asking if the graphics and crafts have been enhanced or is it essentially the same game with MP support.

Are you able to take a few secs and expand on the enhancements regarding graphics etc. If any at all. The screen shots for UC look great. Maybe I should just wait for that.

The graphics are BCM. If you are looking for a graphic overhaul of BCM, that would be UC.

BCMG added a few things in terms of content. Additional areas, mission zones as mentioned on the product info page. It also has 1 or 2 additional campaigns depending on which version you bought (Gamestop version had 2).

And then it added mouse flight controls which was a big one for me, because I don't have access to a joystick when I play on my laptop.

Of course, the biggest addition is multiplayer.

I'm sure there are several other subtle differences. Check the version control files for clues.

Welcome to the forums!

Did you just happen to miss the readme.rtf file located at the link above?
