Originally posted by Adam The only thing to do here is to completely ignore this 'tutorial' mission. They seem to have learned from the flaws of THIS game/sim. The interface is familiar, if you played any other - later - Graviteam games and is comprehensive. THAT tutorial works fine and eases you quickly into your duties. I found Graviteam's other, later tank sim "Steel Armor: Blaze of War"(?) to be a far better overall experience.

Switch to driver again to manoeuver to next enemy.
Switch to gunner and/or commander to 'shoot'.ģ. You will find this 'sim' has a rather simple gameplay loop in every single mission, under all the convoluted smoke screen parts.Ģ. It adds a ton of missions, tinkers with physics(?) and enhances graphics.

You might consider to install 'the mod' (see 'Guides' section in the games Steam Community tab - sorry, can not give you a link. You will stall 10 times before getting anywhere. drive in 'auto' mode, gear shifting is not worth it. Not sure anymore, if it is really worth anyone's time. But, the game DOES want to 'kill' you fast, after it eats a lot of your time. I did not find that kind of game stopping 'bugs' in regular missions. Show me how YOU did The only thing to do here is to completely ignore this 'tutorial' mission.
questionable? Even, in the modded version. just skip it!", but have you ever heard of a tank sim driver 'giving up' on his tank? Even if the physics in this one are. Trying to find another way out, trying to drive up via a slight, constant long angle, does not work.

I have had my fare share of tank sims, but cannot figure out how to get out of this. Trying in first gear gets me to the lower edge of the ditch, but trying to 'climb' it up - in any gear - makes the tanks stop and stall, eventually. In this tutorial mission, you have no way to 'switch between NPCs' (= as commander, tell the driver to drive to the next waypoint). The THIRD time, I was determined to finish this 'mission' - 20-30 minutes in, crawling my way around lovely Ukrainian meadows, I made it to the ditch. The second time, I made it passed the river but both tank treads broke at the same time, while I was slightly - like 10 degrees - backboard heavy vs the uneven ground. The very first time, it took so long that I had to stop after reaching the river. in the slowest possible tank speed?! Using upper gears, as much as the game allows me to. If that’s the case, you might be better off learning to develop your own game because you’re never going to be happy.The very first tutorial/mission, the driving tutorial, sends you from waypoint to waypoint. Steel Fury is the best WW2 armor simulation on the market to date and the minor problems won’t interfere with your gaming - unless you know exactly how each type of round (there are five of them modeled) should do what type of damage at what distance, to what angle of enemy armor it penetrates.

But what PC would you need to model a battle that simulated "epic"? But according to the History Channel, movies, and books, the battles were much larger with hundreds of tanks, and maybe thousands of infantry support. In a typical Steel Fury mission you’ll have maybe 4 tanks, and infantry support for a battle. The weaknesses of the game seem to be common with most computer games, AI, path finding, and small scale conflicts compared to the large scale real world battles that actually took place. Well done campaigns and missions based on real world information. Good tutorial missions that explain more then you need to know.
Good interface with an easy-to-use map features and order system. Excellent basic WW2 armor combat with proper landscape, rolling hills and wood lines. Excellently modeled player-controlled tanks with high interior and exterior detail. Yes, I said that about a month ago regarding WW2 Battle Tanks, and it was at the time… until Steel Fury arrived.Įxcellent visuals and sound make it feel like a WW2 battlefield. Steel Fury is the best WW2 tank simulation/game to date. "Steel Fury may not be the "epic" simulation it's advertised as being, but it is a damn good game.
