Combat ranges from tank-to-tank combat to regimental battles. You are always put in the lead tank so you can get a better view of the battlefield. There are 46 missions that take place in Iraq, Korea, Germany and North America, and thanks to the AI and graphics, each gives you a distinct experience. The tanks, such as the Russian Cold War era T-80 and T-72, are accurate and usually kill in two or three hits. The AI is superb and offers a challenge for even the most seasoned simulation fan. Most of your time is spent scanning the surroundings, moving units, and firing weapons. What is offered are pure battlefield tactics from a first-person perspective. This straightforward simulation has no campaign mode or CGI movies of tanks rolling into battle, no voiceovers, and no one talks you through the instructional lessons.

Add to this the varied battlefields of Europe, Asia and the Middle East, a battalion level, and a tactical planner and you have a solid, fun and satisfying game. well maybe a thing important, this is the ONLY game I have had continously on my HD since the date it was released (over 2 years ago).Steel Beasts gives you the chance to command the US M1A1 and German Leopard 2A4 tanks without having to obsess about every gauge, dial and scope, nor does it force the strict policies and procedures of the military on you. Ok thats about all I can think of right now. You will never see a polygon's edge spoiling the terrain.
STEEL BEASTS GOLD NO CD PLUS
4500m plus visible range, hundreds, maybe thousands of individual trees on display, 12,5m terrain resolution, rolling terrain. It doesnt affect immersion much, the engine is absolutely sufficiant. Only lack is the dated graphics engine, this is why I give 4 out of 5 stars. Most powerful scenario and terrain editors for your own missions!Ĭombined with amazing sounds, recorded chrystally clear from the real beasts, immersion is high! Online play in ONE tank! Commander and gunner! Or company vs.

Still, in case you already know a bit on armored warfar, it will be to your benefit!

In fact you dont need to know a lot on armor to get into it. Steelbeasts combines wargaming and simming, but you dont have to excel at both to play it. If you feel you are a capable commander, and play mostly wargames, this is ALSO the right game for you. If you are looking for a game that has actually useful unit behaviour, not needing micromanagement, this is the right game for you. If you are looking for detailed ammunition and armor characteristics, this is the right sim for you. If you are looking for a detailed (that is, all important features are in, while you dont have switches for lights or other unimportant stuff) simulation on the American M1A1HA Abrams, and the German Leopard2A4, this is the right sim for you. Thriving steel beasts webb comunity where you can discuss allĪspects and get new vehicle skins, scenarios and mods. Which if you turn the volume up adds to the already high imersionįactor.If you want to expand the game even further there is a The sound effects are also good, being taken from the real thing, Artillery strikes are faithfully portrayed with deadly effect if your unlucky enough to get caught. Scenarios as simple or complex as you like can be made, your imagination is properly the limiting factor. Your own it comes with its own mission editor(and a map editor). The game comes with lots of scenarios but if you are into making Granted the graphics are a bit dated by modern standards, but this is more than made up for with the gameplay which really is excellent, helped in no small way by really good AI. Or the gunners, or if just playing it as a strategy game from the map and external view is your thing thats quite possible too,or a mixture of the lot. You can play from the commanders position If your after a good, realistic tank sim this has got to be the best one on the market.
