Been following Tank Squad by DeGenerals SA for a couple of weeks, and it’s a continuous experience of getting impressed by their dev-logs. These guys seem pretty damn serious with creating a realistic, and immersive WW2 tank-simulator. What makes this title interesting, beyond what is presented, is their former game on Steam – Tank Mechanic Simulator. I think you know where I’m going with this. Having a tank-simulator with experienced game devs when it comes to repair, and general tank mechanics can’t be a bad thing.
I know, I know, the best way of not getting disappointing is to keep the hype in check. And trust me it is, but I can’t help to feel some excitement over this title. Going by their dev-logs, it’s going to be a single-player/cooperative game with large battle-scenarios that expands after certain objectives have been met. You will be able to coordinate with other AI tanks, and infantry. You will also be able to leave the tank, if knocked out, and it looks like there might be infantry combat too by looking at the videos. The game is set to release this year, unfortunately, I don’t know if it’s going to be a full release, or an early access thing. I do hope for the former.
