This game is very low-advertised but it is so good! I especially love how vehicles and tanks get damaged realistically, none of that HP crap. Disable the engine, destroy a wheel/tread, disable the main guns on tanks, it goes on. Planes can get damaged that way too, too many shots will bring it to the ground.
yes maybe they will do such stuff about units and tanks.And they should add maus in there too, but i think they wont or when they do they will underpower it cause it would be invincible.
Hey why is DMS going to add a new tank for the USA in this game?The t 29 tank never was in any war so please dont put it in this game or then put maus in this game:)
@F1zzzy90 Do you mean the americans?T 29 was just an experimental tank with only 2 prototypes built.It became the basis for the future American tanks.
ETW looks impressive, but i'm not impressed with gameplay. and a bunch of other stuff. but that's just my own personal taste. don't hate me for it. i know a lot of people will still enjoy it, regardless of my complaints.
so far, Men of War & Grand Ages:Rome are the only two strategy games that have impressed me this year. the only similar competition they've got coming is ToV & Anno 1401.
The game simulates real armour and penetration values, additionally the angle of the impact. You can clearly see the difference with the 2 tanks standing next to each other. If a gun is strong enough it takes 1 shot.
Soldier heroes of WW2 is in a similar category but its NOT the same game, lol. Just because they have the same controls does not mean its the same game lolololololol
u know nothing yea so zip u havent played any of these games and if you have and dont like it there is something wrong with you sorry but end of conversation
lol good argument. Don't get angry because I proved you wrong. You obviously have a good grasp of the English language with that giant run on sentence. But really, they aren't the same game, so give up you won't win this one. They're in similar genres, and they're both realistic, but that's about as close as it comes.
Well it says you're from England, so I expected proficiency in the English language. And just because it's made by the same people doesn't mean it's the same game, lol. And it's not the same game engine either. Looks much better than Soldiers.
i live there but im lithuanian and it is the same engine althought it looks bit better its like battlefield 2 and battelefield 2142 same engine but diference in graphics its the same engine but with improvements
This direct control feature looks like a gimmick. I want to be able to play in the tank or first person as soldier and jump in and out, not this time, maybe next?
The circle is indicating the spread radius of weapon and the crew.
The speed of bullets has been increased during development, please keep in mind those gameplay trailers show you an over 1 year old version of the game.
Thanks, I understand the circle indicates the spread radius, but I don't like it TBH. Reminds me of a crosshair reticle that expands when your recoil goes up like cone of fire, which I hate. I hope I can toggle it off at least because I don't think it's necessary.
Your camera is not locked to the vehicle you are controlling, although it looks like that in this video. You can freely move your camera while driving a tank, i.e. watching the enemy close eye with your camera while shooting at it.
damn great! I love the the angle penetration system! I loved the part of the Kv-1 shoot the Panther and the part of Su-100 blowed tiger up but wen in angle maked richoochete (Sry my english)
Sure, up to 16 players, online ranking system, multiple gamemodes, lots of multiplayer maps, 4 playable Nations, NAT support to host through routers...
Yes, ammo and fuel can run out, although you can go and search corpses for stuff you need, or refuel tanks with fuel of a knocked out enemy tank. The game offers a little RPG element, each soldier and vehicle carries its own inventory.
Hey Digitalmindsoft, where would I go if I wanted to make a few I believe very good and PRACTICAL suggestions to this game as I have being a buyer of the last two and I can see its great potential being improved through subtle interface suggestions.
in the video information there is a link to our website. If you got to Community, you can look into our forums or live chat. For longer suggestions I recommend posting in the Faces of War forums.

It was just a demostration. Strong frontal armor makes weak gun shells just bounce off.
This game is very realistic. This also means one good hit can take out any tank.
Even light tanks can score a kill vs a greater tank if the shoot it in the rear etc..
Awsome but underrated game!
