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.

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

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.

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

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'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.
