Any one signed up for this yet? http://aw.my.com/us/

Looks like WoT 2 I guess but it's tanks so I'm in

Yeah, I signed up for the beta a while back. Looks like fun to me.

No thanks.

Looks like another spin off of War Thunder / World of Tanks.


Edit - why is this in the Armor Simulations subforum? :-)

I could really go for this - over having lighted tapers inserted under my fingernails.

Good-looking certainly and fun, maybe, if stuff like WoT/WT floats your boat (inapt metaphor, I know). And if you like your tanks to perform like beach buggies. But a tank sim, it's absolutely not, even by OFP standards. Pity.

I don't much like the "tanksim wrapped inside a 'strategy' game" approach of SABOW and the post-WW2 era could do with a new tanksim, one that's as mod-able as Steel Fury or Panzer Elite and with even a half-decent single player campaign. Oh well, back to waiting.

I normally don't go for MMO type games but this really does look amazing.
The maps the damage model. going to sign up for it.
Just wish some developer could make a Armour simulation with the accuracy of SB and the graphics of AW.

And on that day I will wake up with a 12 inch p***s



I'm not sure where else I would put it? This seemed the place as it already contained WoT and WT posts.

Or you could purchase Iron Front and play that now that it has been ported to Arma2CO and currently being worked on for Arma3.

It still retains it's penetration and damage model and it is definitely worth a look.

You can even use this website to construct your own single or multiplayer campaign.

Thanks for the tip! IFL44 + D-Day mod is definitely on the to-buy list as (despite some poor reviews) it looks like a decent WW2 shooter and a reasonable 'sim lite' tanksim, for a single-player only type like me. I had seen Planned Assault and Cold War British Army with SLRs, '58 Pattern webbing, 432s and Chieftains is a sim dream come true for me...

...tho I only have base ARMA2 + the British Forces expansion so expect I'd need to invest in combined Ops to get the benefit of the port.

not for my share of gameplay!! my opinion :/

Graphics wise, looks ok, but if someone is going to sacrifice simulation components, there are other shooter oriented games that probably look just as good. It doesn't look that special for its type.

Not much of a chieftain model in the vid. Didn't have engine or gear failure after driving for a 100 yards. ;-) Also smoothbore ammo? M1 style stadia lines? c'mon

If all goes well it should be available for download this month.
Any of you guys going to give it a try.
I got a email from them before Christmas I have been promoted already yippee.
I not going for all the its a real as it gets hype, its a MMO not steel beasts but it mite be fun when I am not in a the mood.
For a real tank sim, (some times I just like to blow #%&*$# up) .LoL

If anybody is interested in teaming up and blowing the hell out of some teenagers
With reflexes like a cats They may have speed but we will have experience
Not starting a VU or anything just looking to fight with people old enough to drive a real car. LoL
If interested you can post here or PM me

I'll be playing for sure

I signed up for the beta but never got any messages.

Will that one be a Free to play thingy?

If yes, I may have alook at it...

Yes its free to play.
The Beta is due out the first quarter of this year if there still on target for the release.
The terrain looks great and destructible.
SB it will never be, but like I stated some times you just want to blow #%&*$# up.LoL
You have to sign up for the Beta first though.

I signed up for beta a while back and have been watching the development. Just waiting now...

I'm getting a tank woody....

Hell- Obsidian? I'm signing in.

I'm not familiar with stuff that Obsidian have done but this looks like it may take me away from WoT and WT.

I hope I'm picked to play the tech beta but I doubt it.

Hmm... So you can obtain different types of tanks from 'dealers', instead of following a tech tree from a specific country...
So you could be running around taking on an enemy with exactly the same type of vehicles as your own side?
Normally AFV recognition is a skill set that you need to positively identify an enemy vehicle... this could be very confusing.

That's no different to WoT or War Thunder,at least in arcade battles which is all I play.

What we don't know yet is how Armoured Warfare handles the match-making.

Guess it will be the same red/green-frame shoite as in World of tanks

I signed up a while ago.

Did they reach the Beta state?

They must have something better than WOT, otherwise very few people would buy it.

There's a closed beta shortly,not too sure when the open beta starts.

It sounds as though there will be some sort of role-playing element (Obsidian Entertainment) but not too sure how this is implemented. Have a look at the vid I posted on page 2.

There is no tech tree as in WoT and WT,instead you get packages from arms dealers (explained in video).Also it has a heavy PVE element.

Thank you Chucky.

Interesting video.

I am surprised by the amount of time, the video voice over was mentioning WOT and WT and how different this game is from the competition.

Yet, I haven't seen any tank interior, and I still don't know if is it an arcade game like WOT?...A tactical Arcade like WT?...

I guess we will see!

I doubt that there will be any interiors,that's not how these games work.WoT and WT have proven that.These are all arcade/tactical games with 'realistic' elements. I can live with that for the sake of game-play.

If I need to get serious I can fire up SB Pro or SABOW.

As you say,time will tell but judging by the massive numbers that applied for the beta,people can't get enough of this style of game.I'm also guessing that if a Dev team get it right there is BIG money to be earned.

Yes you are right!...Arrgh!...I became an old fart!...Going back inside my T-34 in RS-RO2!...
