Graviteam's new tank sim

[frinik]

Hello Graviteam!

I know this is off topic but I couldn't help myself.I saw Zlad's posts on SimHQ 's forum about Graviteam's new and upcoming M60-T62 armour sim.It looks very exciting and I, and I am sure, many other SF and Graviteam's sims fans in general are looking forward to buying,playing and enjoying it.Please include more than 2 tanks (The T54/55, the Leopard 1A, the Chieftain or Centurion as well as APCS from the USSR,USA,Germany and the UK or FRance would be greta.

Also happy about a WWII sim for 2011 about Kharkov August 1943 . I am looking forward to buying that one too.

Bravo Graviteam!

Cheers

I would also like to know more info about the upcoming sims, especially Kharkov 1943.

I like Steel fury very much, but I´d like to have some improvements in the upcoming WWII sims:

- more missions
- crew management, promotions, medals etc.(like in Panzer elite).
- different sound for a shell that penetrates through and for a shell that bounces off an armor.
- I would like to see smoke and fire inside and to have the ability to bail out by pressing the key.
  ( In Steel fury I often don´t know whether the enemy is firing at me or whether the shell comes through).
- better animations of bailing-out crew. 
- drivable Panther, Tiger, T34/85, SU-85/100, JS-2...

Hopefully, I would like to see the series completed by battles in Normandy with hedges, beautiful villages and with drivable King tiger, Jagdpanzer IV/70(V), Hetzer and Nashorn using this superb graphic engine.

Thanks

You already have playable( and drivable) t34-85, Tiger I and II, the SU 85 and JS 1943 in the game if you install the Steel Panzer 1.4 mod and Tiger 1.0 mod.Soon with Steel Panzer 1.5 mod you´ll have the SU 76, 122, 152, JS 2 model 1944, the Panther D, Panzer IV G or H and Ferdinand playable as well.As for the JagdPanther it´s in the plan but not right away.

Hi Frinik,

I know that and I have already installed steel panzer mod, but I would like to have cockpits for these tanks as well. So I´m looking forward to the next WWII Graviteam sims.


I know that we must be grateful for any tank-sims coming out. But are you guys really interested in "modern" tank-sims like newly announced Steel Armor: Blaze of War?
I really miss a successor of Panzer elite - a late war WWII panzer sim with some rpg elements. I like Steel fury but is very impersonal to me ( no names, awards, promotions...etc) and there are few missions, it´s like a demo only and it seems that Steel Armor: Blaze of War will be the same. Maybe only I have this feeling....

  Well if you check the vids on the Avia Sukhoi.ru forum you´ll see that with the Steel Panzer 1.5 there will be a PanzerSchreck team added to the game and teams of machine gunners with Mg42s and bunkers manned by machine gunners as well.As for a darth of missions I have over 160 variants with the different mods installed including single missions, user-made missions.Usin g the ME I have made about 70 user-made missions for myself. So I ain´t complaining.

AS for Panzer Elite I think SF has the potential to be it´s successor .Anyway PE SE with all thew various mods is still around and playable and with the PE 3 mods, Korea mods etc and all the improvements that game is still quite good.

AS for Graviteam´s new sims I think they can only imrpove based on what I have seen with Acthung Panzer and the vids of their Steel Armour sim.

Steel Armor: Blaze of War ! When? Soon I hope. I have enjoyed Armored Fist 3, M1 Platoon II, Steel Beasts, all modern tank sims. Love modern armor. Please release soon. I'll volunteer if you need another beta tester :-)
